Three Cheers for Vanessa Born
You’ve already got a glimpse of what actor Cody Longo (of Bring It On: Fight to the Finish) is all about (CLICK HERE if you haven’t). But what is his co-star, Vanessa Born like?
The actress plays Gloria, Lina’s BFF, who’s actually made captain of the cheer squad once she leaves for Malibu. But is this hip chick anything like her character? We just had to catch up with her and get to the bottom of it…
GL: What’s your favorite thing about your character, Gloria?
Vanessa: [She] is hilarious. She’s fun and feisty and ready to bust out dancing at any time. She’s always there for her friends and will fight to the finish for them.
GL: What’s you’re favorite thing about your best friend?
Vanessa: He is always there for me when I have a small or big problem and need someone to bounce it off of. We love to go to amusement parks, like Disneyland, or haunted house events like Knotts Scary Farm. We scream like girls so bad, it’s not even funny.
GL: You’re very passionate and driven when it comes to dance and acting. What motivates you to succeed?
Vanessa: When people tell me something’s not possible, or I’m not going to succeed. Those words drive me up the wall, out the door and into an acting, dance or voice class. I’m sad at first, but I usually take that sadness and put it to use in my art. Like taking a bunch of mean people juice and grinding it up into a positive protein shake—yummy.
GL: If there could be another Bring It On installment, what would you like to see happen?
Vanessa: A musical!
GL: There obviously isn’t a shortage of cute guys in the film. What have you learned about guys and relationships that you wish you knew when you were younger?
Vanessa: That being friends first is so awesome. And there’s no rush to be in a relationship. If he’s a good guy, he’ll want to be your friend first.
GL: This or That. Chocolate or vanilla?
Vanessa: BOTH—mixed together!
GL: Summer or winter?
Vanessa: SUMMER!
GL: East coast or west coast?
Vanessa: I’m a Cali girl…WEST SIDE!
