Was
born December 30th, 1982, in Vancouver, British Columbia,
Canada. The easy-going daughter of a Dutch father and Chinese
mother, both of whom are landscape architects, Kristin led
a regular life prior to stardom. She proceeded through her
schooling as an unassuming yet attention-getting girl.
She enjoyed acting
classes, but was not serious about the trade. That is, until
a casting director faxed her (and every British Columbian)
high school about a casting call for the CBC series Edgemont.
Kreuk entered and "got lucky," as she says; suddenly,
she was a television actress. |
Since Edgemont is filmed
in Vancouver, Kreuk stayed at her parents' house as her star rose.
Her character, Laurel Yeung, is the mysterious pretty girl from
out of town, and she is one of the favorites on the Canadian semi-melodrama,
which can also be seen on the FOX Family Channel.
Not to be deterred by the
pressures of success and hard work, Kreuk attended another audition
for a Vancouver-based television program: the WB series Smallville,
which focuses on the young life of comic book hero Superman and
his alter ego Clark Kent. Kreuk was cast as Lana Lang, the gorgeous,
popular cheerleader-type girl who precedes Superman's long-time
love, Lois Lane. Since taking on another popular show, Kristin has
done nothing but flex her unfaltering acting muscle.
A Shooting two shows concurrently
has left Kristin Kreuk little time to pursue other projects. She
has had to postpone plans to study psychology and forensic science
at British Columbia's Simon Fraser University. Considering it took
her a few years to move out of her parents' house, she will probably
take her time when it comes to going back to school.
Recently, Kreuk played the
title role in a made-for-TV version of Snow White, and became a
spokesmodel for Neutrogena skin care products, following in the
footsteps of fellow hotties Jennifer Love Hewitt and Mandy Moore.
While she loves Vancouver enough to never move to Hollywood and
claims that she's uncertain about whether or not she'll continue
to act, rest assured that her talent and jaw-dropping looks will
bring her more roles in the future.
