Hello there! This is Merri and I really want to get her going on connections. Her bio, imdb, and discography is located here. Let me know if any of her credits are taken because I checked 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 times even put it in notepad and searched them to see if they were taken. I don't want to take someone elses stuff!
I'm still working on her substantial entry though and I'm thinking about putting a couple of more shows or maybe a movie in there for her acting credits. If you need a line filled, a co-star, ex tourmates I'm all for it. Just let me know what you'd be interested in.

hola! this is jovana marie brampton, baby sister to ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) ariee. she's a singer/songwriter with the credits of brandi carlile.
growing up she was a tough little kid--precocious and outspoken. making many many mistakes loudly and publicly. she didn't get the chance to date boys thanks to a protective father and his hyper-protective son. just fine by her, though--they didn't much expect she'd like girls, too. her most intimate relationships have been with females, though, she's dated men superficially. having tried and failed with girls endlessly she gave up around the time she turned twenty and began trying to date men exclusively. didn't work though, she couldn't turn down a model. jovana identifies as queer and has had a lot of ups and downs with her identity--it continues to change.
yet, it hasn't quite effected her music career. she's always been open and was an outspoken activist against prop 8 and continues to speak out against similar propositions. she attends demonstrations and rallies, and does interviews about her political leanings. jovie, as she's called by her friends and family, is a known lover of tea, culinary fuckery, and hitting on models. she's aggressive, loud, and drinks often (maybe too much if her mother had anything to say about it.) but she's one of those "live in the moment" types who doesn't really believe in mistakes. also dramatic. very dramatic--which makes her an excellent lover but a hellish break-up/enemy.
i'm down for much of anything! brainstorming's my expertise so let's dig something up!

I'm incredibly indecisive and I need help. I'm planning on bringing in this Ashley Tisdale and I was wondering if I should either:
a) make her a geeky correspondent for G4 ala Alison Haislip (with a couple of creds under her belt)
b) have her be a fresh face to the scene with the musical credits of Pixie Lott
c) other and comment with what you'd like to see
Anything help would bring me closer into making this decision. Also if you need any storylines to be filled, I'm totally open into hearing them. Please and thank you!

Before I start NPCing/pimping for this, does anyone want to talk about maybe being the percussion/production mastermind behind a project that sounds like Trespassers William?

Hiii guys! This is Arie Brampton, a musician with the credits of Gavin Rossdale. Arie is thirty-three and originally from Nashville Tennessee. He moved to Hollywood after dropping out of Tennessee State University, as a music major. He was a bar tender and part time bouncer, he mostly did his music on the side just for fun until he was discovered while playing in a local bar. His life pretty much spiraled after that, and he’s been doing it ever since. As someone who wasn’t looking to make it big, he doesn’t take his career all that seriously. He loves music, but his success is just a big blessing that he rolls with.
As for connections! I have a man in his biography that introduced him to the main stream music scene in LA, someone who told him where he should be playing and helped him out by word of mouth. All of that help ultimately lead to Arie’s record deal, so if there are any producers / musicians around the right age for this, that would be wonderful!
He has a little sister coming in and I’ve got two good friends for him (sphia and macallistar ) but I’d still love connections! Any redheads that he can swoon over, or has swooned in the past? Arie has an addiction to redheads, but he likes them nice. He has a habit of having very intense, yet very short relationships. He falls face first, then runs away once he realizes it’s serious. Anything you can toss out at me, I’d be happy to hear!

Hey, I'm bringing in a Binki Shapiro PB with the credits of Jenny Lewis/Rilo Kiley. Her name is Charlotte 'Charlie' Roth and she's in a band called the Halves and Have-Nots with wilke, who is her only connection so far. I'd like to throw together a few more connections now that I have her apped. She's a Los Angeles native born to a family prominent in the music industry; her father is a big-time A&R guy and her mother does PR work, both at two different major labels. She lives in Echo Park and is pretty down to earth. Charlie is also a busybody and is constantly doing something; if she's not writing or making music of her own or with Fallon, then she's often helping out her friends with their own creative projects. That's about all that I have for her so far, so anything else, friends, neighbors, exes, family, etc., would be great.

hey everyone! i apologize if this is all over the place. i have a tendency to ramble when i have to do these.
anyway, this is shawne xavior, 27 year old musician, played by jackson rathbone. he has the voice and lyric credits of andrew mcmahon/jack's mannequin. he is originally from new york city and currently lives there with his best pal and dog, jack. his parents both came from the business. his father was a tony award winning producer and his mom was a model. his dad passed away from cancer when he was thirteen, and from that stemmed shawne's musical career. he has really no connection with his mother (who is a d-lister these days) anymore, since she is too plastic and too worried about which reality show she's on or what guy she's marrying to care. currently she decided to play gold digger to julietevans' father. aside from that, shawne is pretty chill. he doesn't like to deal with problems or things that are bothering him, so he just pushes them away and lets them build up until he's forced to deal with them. like his first screw up with bridgett. he canceled their wedding the day of, but things are better with the two of them and they are engaged once again. things tend to roll off his shoulders a lot, so he has a bit of a hippie inside. he has a big sense of bathroom and crude humor, and the way to get to his heart is by a plate full of tacos. christina aguilera? yeah, he thinks she's an angel on earth, but would NEVER admit to listening to all her songs (and knowing all of the words). i always feel like i get a better handle once i'm playing the character, so hopefully his personality will shine through once i'm in the game.
as far as lines go, i'm really open to anything and i love brainstorming. i would really love a guy best friend for him, some guys his mom married and divorced, dated, hit it and quit it. plus maybe a distant cousin twice removed or something strange like that. also, if any other female singers are around and want to, there are two tracks on his album "a glass passenger" that need a girl part.

Bringing in a Chris Corner PB. I'm considering Depeche Mode for his music credits, but that could change. As far as his career goes, he's open to collaborations and producing. Otherwise, he's open to fill family lines, and ex-tour mates turn friends (or enemies).

Hellooooo Santa Claus! Yeah, yeah, I'm one of those crazy Christmas people. But that's really not the point, is it? Who doesn't love a good Christmas carol every now and again. Anyway...stay focused...I'm thinking of bringing this Penelope Cruz into the game as josetteb's sister. The girls were separated when they were younger and Penelope here (I think I'm gonna keep her name as Lola and use this journal) stayed with her father while her sister was with their grandmother. They didn't have much of a relationship, and I'm thinking they just recently came into contact, though those details still need to be worked out. Other than that, I was thinking of having her be involved in something with fashion, maybe Vera Wang credits. Possibly even a model turned designer. If not fashion, I was considering writing, but I really think I'm leaning more towards fashion, maybe even fashion photography. She'd be in her early thirties, and other than that, I don't have much. I think she might have grown up in Spain or New York (haven't decided yet) with her father.
So...ideas? Lines? Would she be wanted for anything? I'm definitely interested in filling lines, discussing lines, drawing lines, snorting...just kidding, etc. She's pretty much a blank slate except for the above ideas.

hey guys, i apologize for being a bit of a slow poke but introducing spencer monroe! he's brianne's drug addicted rock-star of an older brother, boasting the voice and lyrics of max bemis/say anything. sl wise, he needs everything! friends, past and future tour mates, ex-girlfriends/flings, an arch nemisis, people to collab with (his last album had quite a few guest vocalists), fellow la club kids (think cobrasnakers), or anything else we might come up with.
to give you a brief background: spencer was dragged to LA in pursuite of brianne's dream and he's been out of control ever since. feeling like the forgotten child, he starting acting out in feeble attempts for attention and while he's managed to develop a successful career, he is anything but in his personal life. his thing is pharms and uppers although he'll also drown himself in liquor if given the chance. when sober he's known for being a pretty sweet dude, very loyal and well spoken and just full of energy and creativity but when high he's known for acting out and disregarding pretty much everything but himself. his lyrics are emotionally fueled and at times raw and his live shows follow the same trend, gaining him many fans but not allowing him to keep friends outside of the business or girlfriends for very long. he rarely mentions his sister in interviews but he cares about her deeply, like any big brother would, he just never shows it. right now he's back in la working on a new album that will drop in the early spring and although a lot of the people around him are pushing for rehab (even if just out patient) he swears the studio is all he needs. that's pretty much it, i'm hoping other quirks and ins and outs will fall into place as he develops and of course sls are a huge part of that so comment and we'll cook something up!

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
-Theodore Roosevelt

OK everyone, I've not written up her bio or first entry but I thought I'd post this anyway in the hopes that I can get some lines to help figure her out. So, this is Olivia Hunter, as pbed by the very lovely Kate Bosworth, and she's a 24-year old Australian singer/actress with the credits of Delta Goodrem. Despite being pretty famous in Aus she wasn't really known within the States until Fanboys was released earlier this year. She got her start on Neighbours, which she appeared on for three years before leaving to pursue a career in music. She released her first album, Innocent Eyes the following year and it went straight to number one. She has since appeared in a number of Australian movies before finally making the transition to American movies in 2008 with a small role in Mamma Mia and Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Whilst Liv loves acting, music is her real passion and she tries to combine the two as often as possible. Her discography is here and other credits are here.
Personality-wise, Liv is extremely humble and gracious and really still stunned by the direction her life has taken. She doesn't take life or her career too seriously and is always willing to laugh. Liv isn't the brightest crayon in the box but she means well and is, once you get down to it, a real sweetheart. She's a little naive and very gullible, which means that people can, and occasionally have, taken advantage of her. The paparazzi (and most of America) know her as that blonde Australian girl who's always willing to stop for a chat or randomly sing lines from new songs for them.
Anyway, I think that's all I have so far but I'd really love to work out some lines with people. Co-stars, friends, exes, whatever, anything and everything would be appreciated!
