STEFFANI FOLEY BIO

 

The American TV public came to know Steffani Foley as the cute girl who appeared in many tv commercials including her major for 'Firto Lays,' which attempted to recreate the humour that was captured brilliantly .

Steffani was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. She was interested in acting from her early age and at age of three she joined the acting academy with one of her cousins. At that age her mother was approached by an agent who asked if she would consider having her model.Years later, when she was Seven, She came across some pictures of her early days [some of her early career pics] and asked mom what they were about and if she could try it again. Mom said she could, if she was really serious. By then their family had moved to Irvine, California but would move to Los Angeles when she won a role in the tv commercial for "KFC". Ever since then she has been into acting in tv commercials and some tv series.

Her first series was the hit "Two Of A Kind," however their were several controversies regarding her role and the production of the series. It was said that she could do more better.

After the first season, many of us, understandably, expected "Two Of A Kind" to be cancelled. We certainly didn't anticipate what happened. When ABC axed the show, it was picked up by UPN. Although the ratings were worse on UPN than they were on ABC, the show stayed on the air because (the truth hurts) all UPN shows have bad ratings. Well, since all UPN shows fail "Two Of A Kind" was finally cancelled.

She hopes she will get some good starring movie roles!!

One of the failings of the "Two Of A Kind" TV show was that it was successful without making Alicia look goofy, yet the producers of the TV show seemed to feel that the Cher character [Steffani] required foolish looking hairstyles and clothes. Although we had hoped UPN would turned down the idiot factor, the show still didn't concentrate on the comedy that made the show work. Steffani is a most outstanding actress, and could have handled anything they dished out. Rather than trying to make her look funny, they should have improved the writing. Instead, the show remained quite bad, and now it's history.

But then she caught the attention of other producers and got her chance and soon did appear on other tv series which include hits like "TIMES WE SHARE", "DREAMS" and "FOR REAL".This supressed the ratings of "Two Of A Kind" and now again she's working for new episodes of the same show...but this time written by Gregory Smith and aired on both ABC and UPN.

Shortly before her "Two Of A Kind" debut, Rachel appeared in first few episodes of the Disney Channel's "Flash Forward". Playing the part of Ellen who is the lead character Becca's older sister.

She says she is inspired by one of her net friends [VIPIN] who happens to live in INDIA and would work more hard.
