Jamie Chung was first seen on MTV in 2004 on The Real World San Diego and now will be the lead role on ABC’s Samurai Girl premiering on Friday September 5th, 2008.
Jamie plays the role of Heaven, the nineteen year old adopted daughter of wealthy powerful Japanese family. Protected and watched over her whole life things drastically change for Heaven when she is sent to San Francisco for an arranged wedding.
Jamie told the Boston Herald yesterday echoing what I wrote last year that Reality TV hurts acting , “If anything, it made it more challenging. When I would go in to audition, they wanted to make sure I was taking it seriously. Someone from a reality background would blow it off. That’s the stereotype. Acting is something that I always wanted to do. I did plays in middle school, high school and college, but it was drilled into me get an education and climb the corporate ladder.”
Jamie was also in the movie I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry, Maxim magazine, music video Umbrella by Rihanna, and other television series inlcluding Days of Our Lives, Greek, CSI New York, and Veronica Mars.
You can then see more of Jamie in the theatres shortly in Dragonball, The Phantom of the Opera, Princess Protection Program, & Demi Lovato.
