Karis Cameron is a Canadian actress that is best known for her role in Open Heart. She has also worked as a model. Here are ten things about her that you may not know.
1. She Was Born In British Columbia
She was born in British Columbia, and this is where she still lives today. She grew up in a town called Tofino and she is very proud of her Canadian roots. She is part of a very close-knit family and has two older brothers and a younger sister. She takes every opportunity to spend time with her family when she is not working. She was the first person in her family to enter into an acting career and they are obviously very proud of everything that she has achieved so far.
2. Her Most Recent Role Is In Beverley Hills 90210
Most recently she has starred as Jennie Garth’s daughter in the new series of Beverley Hills 90210. In reality Garth is a mom of three, but the fictionalized version of herself just has one daughter, Kyler that is played by Cameron. The character of Kyler is described as a somewhat rebellious teenager that often causes problems for her mom. The character of Kyler wants to become an actress which is something that Karis can relate to, although she has a much closer relationship with her own mother in real life.
3. She Has Appeared In Several Lifetime Movies
She is also well-known for the TV movies she has starred in which have aired on the Lifetime channel. Witness Protection was one of these movies and this was the first movie where she starred in a lead role. There are also a couple of other movies that she will be starring in this year including Identity Theft Of A Cheerleader and New Year’s Kiss.
4. She Starred In An Episode Of Signed, Sealed, Delivered
Signed, Sealed, Delivered was a show on the Hallmark channel about a group of people who tried to deliver mail with no recipient. Karis starred as Maria in the episode entitled Soulmates. It was a popular show with fans but was cancelled after just one season. As each episode focuses on a different story it would have been unlikely that Karis could have resumed her role even if the series was renewed.
5. She Is Good Friends With Sara Waisglass
One of her best friends is actress Sara Waisglass, who is best known for her role as Frankie Hollingsworth in Degrassi. Sara is a little bit younger than Karis but they both have a lot in common. They are both young actors from Canada who started their careers by acting in shows aimed for teenagers. Their schedules mean that they do not get to spend as much time together as they may like but they make the most of the time that they do have together.
6. Her Net Worth Is $500,000
According to Famed Star she has a net worth of $500,000. Virtually all of her total income has come from her acting work. She is only just starting out in her acting career and so there is the capacity for her net worth to increase quite dramatically if she takes on other high profile roles. There is also the chance that she could do more modeling work in the future which would also add to her total net worth.
7. She Enjoys Spending Time Outdoors
When she is not working, she loves spending time outdoors and is a big fan of camping. She is also a big fan of traveling and has spent a few months touring Europe. Her love of the outdoors might come from the fact that she grew up in Tofino. The area has a lot of hiking trails and is a popular area for water sports. It attracts a lot of tourists in the summer and the people who live there get the chance to experience the nature and great outdoors all year round.
8. She Has A Pet Dog She Adores
She is the proud owner of a dog called Reese and considers him very much to be part of her family. Her Instagram feed is full of photos of her and Reese together. On her Instagram profile page she refers to Reese as the love of her life. She has been his owner since he was just a puppy and it is clear from the photos that they have a very close bond. She sometimes shares photos of him now side by side with similar photos when he was a puppy to show how much he has grown.
9. One Of Her Movies Was Featured At San Diego Comic Con
One of the latest short movies that she has starred in called ‘The Whistler’ was discussed at the San Diego Comic Con. Although she did not appear on the panel herself, it was still a very proud moment for everyone who was involved in the film. There is a lot of hard work that goes on behind the scenes and sometimes the crew don’t get the recognition that they deserve and so a panel is a good way for them to get the praise that they deserve. The Whistler was also featured at a number of other film festivals including including The Hollywood Cinefest and New Jersey Horror Con and Film Festival.
10. She Believes That Acting Classes Are Essential For Budding Actors
She is a big advocate for acting classes and believes that they are essential for anyone who wants to make a career out of acting. She told My Devotional Thoughts that she still attends classes herself when she is not working. The advice that she would give to anyone who wants to get started in an acting career is to attend classes and take every opportunity that comes their way. She also says that you have to be prepared to put in a lot of hard work and there will be sacrifices to be made along the way.
