BACKGROUND

♡   loli grew up in a farm in red river valley, adopted by two of her loving and hard-working fathers. being isolated from the urban world, she had no choice but to adapt to their lifestyle only to quickly realize that physical work and challenges were right up her alley.

♡   of course, despite being the local superstar, she couldn’t help but dream of bigger things. she wanted the whole world to know her name and recognize her on the streets, often daydreaming about the life of a nepo baby.

♡   by the age of 15, they’d already starred in a few local films and shows that had never quite made it onto the big screen, but baby steps were still steps. with some experience in their pocket, loli had considered enlisting the help of her estranged uncle, who was a filmmaker in the big apple, but also the black sheep of their family, and ended up following through with it two years later.

♡     although her dads weren’t happy with her decision, they were in no spot to discourage loli from pursuing her dreams and off she went to new york to prepare for the biggest audition yet of her life.

♡   as it was a demanding role, loli worked hard to be in her best shape with her uncle’s support and advice, but even with his connections, the role had been given to someone else and she was stuck in a big city with barely any friends and a loud personality to do nothing but continue starring in films that weren’t exactly big break materia.

♡   they’d applied for the show survivor as a joke, but when the acceptance email rolled in, they were all too eager to go on it. and while they didn’t end up winning, they quickly became a fan-favourite with her quick wits and strong ability to gain people’s trust and form connections.

♡   using that skyrocketed fame on social media to her advantage, she finally had her breakthrough when she became part of the main cast on what would soon become one of the most popular shows, beautiful small untruthers.

♡   unfortunately, things didn’t fall into place as easily as she’d expected them to. getting roles was still as difficult as it was before, barely getting to star in two other big movies while the rest were mainly cameos, but her enthusiastic and unapologetic presence was apparently desired in reality tv. they then went on to participate in more reality shows for exposure and is currently planning on making a huge name for herself in that area.

CHARACTER STUDY

the best way to describe her is good in small doses. she’s vibrant, eccentric, always the life of the party, but she also has a tendency of experiencing everything in the most intense way. they’re quickly bored, always in need of that mental stimulation, and if something’s not going their way, they will be throwing a fit. she can be naive at times, definitely eccentric and bold, always full of shit to say but should keep to herself, which oftentimes leads her to trouble. in relationships, she can be distrusting and avoidant, just a tad bit dramatic, and she can never quite cope with jealousy all that well, but once you manage to push past that, they make a great partner. reading the room is not her strongest suit, but hey, at least it makes fun headlines!
