Where Are They Now: Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) – Since Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Sarah Michelle Gellar has not exactly been in the public eye. Gellar’s post Buffy Movies include: Scooby-Doo 2, The Grudge, The Grudge 2 and a slew of movies that went straight to DVD and limited release, as well as an unsold HBO pilot called The Wonderful Maladys.

However, the movie scene was definitely not on her list of priorities. After meeting Freddy Prinze Jr. during  the filming  of the 1997 (Same year as Buffy started) teen horror flick, I Know What You Did Last Summer, they were married on September 1st, 2002 in Mexico and have been enjoying their married life ever since. In 2007, Gellar legally changed her name to Sarah Michelle Prinze in honor of the couple’s fifth marriage anniversary and two years later, on  September 19, 2009 she gave birth to the couple’s first child, a daughter named Charlotte Grace Prinze.

Sarah Michelle is also an active advocate for various charities, including breast cancer research, Project Angel Food, Habitat for Humanity and CARE, a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty.

Fun Fact: Gellar has revealed that she suffers from a phobia of being buried alive, “I really fear graveyards and I have a big phobia of being buried alive. It was really hard being an ass-kicking vampire slayer when you are afraid of graves.”

Angel (David Boreanaz) – After Buffy The Vampire Slayer was over, Boreanaz still had a year left on his Buffy spin off, Angel, where he played the same lovable character only in Los Angeles and this time he was the hero. Much like Sarah Michelle Gellar, Buffy’s end was the beginning of straight to DVD and limited release movies with the exception of The Crow: Wicked Prayer which wasn’t really that great. Unlike Gellar however, Boreanaz made a huge come back when he was cast as special agent Seeley Booth alongside Emily Deschannel in the FOX drama, Bones. He is also a co-producer of the show and has even directed a few episodes.

After marrying actress and playmate Jaime Bergman in 2001, they had a son, Jaden Rayne, born May 1, 2002 and a daughter, Bardot Vita, born on August 31, 2009. On May4th, 2010, Boreanaz revealed to his wife as well as the media that he had been unfaithful, after a supposed mistress threatened to blackmail him for six figures. Bergman and Boreanaz stated that divorce is not an option and that they are working on their marriage.

Fun Fact: According to Amy Acker (Fred), David Boreanaz used to flash people on the set of Angel. “Yeah, I pull my trousers down in the middle of a serious take to see if they can keep a straight face. I need to lighten the moment, I guess.”

Xander Harris (Nicholas Brendon Schultz) – To continue the “there’s no life after Buffy curse”, Schultz made a few unknown movies like Unholy, Blood On The Highway, The Portal and My Neighbors Secret. Schultz also had some guest appearances on more known TV shows like Kitchen Confidential, Criminal Minds and Without a Trace. Much like his marriage to Tressa Di Figlia which ended in 2007, so did his acting career. On March 17th, 2010, the police responded to an early morning call in Los Angeles about an intoxicated individual roaming the streets. The officers had to taser him after he allegedly swung his fists at them and attempted to run away. Nicholas was arrested for felony vandalism and was held on $20,000 bail. He was later charged with four misdemeanors, including one count of resisting arrest, two counts of battery against a police officer and one count of vandalism.

After dealing with stuttering most of his life, Schultz became a spokesperson for the Stuttering Foundation of America, appearing in a print campaign for the organization as well as serving as an honorary chairperson of the Stuttering Foundation of America’s Stuttering Awareness Week for three consecutive years, from 2000 to 2003.

Fun Fact: Schultz has an identical twin brother, Kelly Donovan Schultz, who is older than him by three minutes.  Kelly served as his occasional stand-in on Buffy The Vampire Slayer when Nicholas was sick as well as during some fight scenes.

Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan) – For Alyson Hannigan, life after Buffy has been pretty sweet. She has made a ton of guest appearances in several popular TV shows like Angel, That 70′s Show, King of the Hill, Veronica Mars and The Goode Family. In 2005 she joined the cast of How I Met Your Mother and has been making people across America laugh ever since. Hannigan also starred in the 2006 romantic comedy spoof Date Movie as Julia Jones.

Aside from Buffy, Hannigan’s most popular role was probably playing Michelle Flaherty in the generational teen comedy movie series American Pie, American Pie 2 and American Wedding.

In 2003 Hannigan married her Buffy co-star Alexis Denisof who played Wesley Wyndam-Pryce (See below). Six years later on March 24th 2010 (Which is also Alyson’s birthday), Alyson gave birth to their first daughter, Satyana Marie Denisof. Satyana has bright orange hair just like her momma and has been seen taken out for strolls in L.A. parks. Watch out Hollywood.

Fun Fact: Alyson has had two songs recorded about her: “Alyson Hannigan” by Juvenile Wreck and “This One Time” (named for her famous “This one time, at band camp…” quotes from American Pie) by The Malcolm Effect.

Celebrity Lookalikes: America Ferrera and Jordin Sparks

Jordin_Sparks_America_FerreraIt has always been pretty amazing to me how two people that were born years apart, in different parts of the globe to different nationalities, can look so much alike.

This time I would like to point out two young ladies from different areas of the entertainment business. America Ferrera is an actress, while Jordin Sparks is a singer. I know they look like identical twins, or at least sisters, but they are actually very different. America is five years older than Jordin but Jordin is much much taller (Pretty much taller than most women actually).

America is known for playing an ugly chick who works at a fashion magazine and Jordin is known for calling 95% of the female population sluts. I know what you’re thinking… “Oh know she didn’t”… That’s right, oh yes she did. During the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, Jordin responded to Russell Brand’s jokes about the Jonas brothers wearing purity rings, by saying the following: “I just have one thing to say about promise rings. It’s not bad to wear a promise ring, because not everybody – guy or girl – wants to be a slut”. Nice going Jordin Sparks, you’re a virgin and an idiot.

Hollywoods Hottest Up and Coming Young Actresses

Amanda-SeyfriedAmanda Seyfried – Born on December 3, 1985 (1985-12-03) in Allentown, Pennsylvania to an occupational therapist and a pharmacist. She began her career as a model at age 11, and soon after she began appearing in a slew of daytime soap opera’s like Guiding Light, As The World Turns and All My Children. For some reason, Seyfried has always auditioned for lead roles but received supporting roles. For example, in her claim to fame Mean Girls, Seyfried auditioned for Rachel McAdam’s and Lindsey Lohan’s roles but ended up playing the plastics dumb blond. On Veronica Mars she auditioned for Kristen Bell’s role but ended up playing her murdered best friend. However since 2008, Seyfried began landing the big roles. First she played Sophie on Mama Mia! alongside Pierce Brosnan and Meryl Strip, then in 2009 she starred alongside Megan Fox in Jennifer’s Body. Coming up for 2010… Dear John with Channing Tatum and Letters To Juliet (Previews showing in a theater near you).

Fun Facts:

  • Has been dating her Mama Mia! co-star Dominic Cooper since they met on set
  • She is addicted to jeans and collects them in all shapes and sizes

nina-dobrevNina Dobrev - Born on January 9, 1989 (1989-01-09) in Sofia, Bulgaria to an artist and a computer specialist. Even though Dobrev was born in Bulgaria, she moved to Ontario, Canada when she was only two years old. Ever since she was little she always had an affinity for the arts, she danced, did gymnastics, theater, music, visual arts, and of course acting. Even though her older brother is studying to be an engineer, She took a completely different route and went to Wexford Collegiate School for the Arts in Scarborough, Ontario and later went to acting school in Toronto. After being scouted in Toronto she began modeling, then doing commercials and finally acting in feature films. Her break came when she was cast as a single mother on Degrassi: The Next Generation, but her claim to fame I would have to say was Vampire Diaries. On Vampire Diaries, Dobrev plays Elena Gilbert, the love interest of two hot vampires – Stefan and Damon Salvatore – played by Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder (From Lost). Nina may be a beginner in the Television business but I know that she will grow up to be a huge movie star.

Fun Facts:

  • She enjoys playing volleyball, soccer, swimming, rock climbing, wake boarding, snowboarding and horse back riding
  • Nina represented Canada in Aesthetic gymnastics at an international competition

Agam-darshiAgam Darshi – Born Agamdeep Darshi in Birmingham, England and should be somewhere in her late twenties (Unfortunately I could not find any record of her date of birth). Even though she was born in England and moved to Canada at a young age, it is my guess that she is of Indian origin. When she was 14 she decided to pursue her passion for acting, and so she took matters into her own hands and moved to Calgary, where she studied acting, fine arts and photography. Apart from being devoted to acting, Darshi is also an artist, writer, graphic-designer, screenwriter and producer. Agam has written several plays as well as scripts for independent films but her Television career includes Tru Calling, Dead Zone, The L-Word, Final Destination 3, Stargate Atlantis, Snakes On a Plane, Watchmen and 2012. But the role that I love her from is non other than Sanctuary, where she plays Kate Freelander, a very funny lady.

Fun Facts:

  • Agam loves backpacking and has already gone through Europe and Australia
  • She is  well versed in traditional Indian dance styles

ashley_greeneAshley Greene – Born on February 21, 1987 in Jacksonville, Florida to an Insurance agent and a U.S. Marine. Greene had originally set out to be a model but fortunately for us the 5’5 beauty could not make it in the modeling world due to her height (Or lack there of). She began doing commercials, and after taking some acting classes she realized that acting was her real passion. At 17 she decided to move to L.A. to pursue her acting career and soon after began appearing in popular television shows such as Punk’d, MADtv and Crossing Jordan. Her big break came when she auditioned to play Bella in the teen sensation movie, Twilight. Greene lost out to Kristin Stewart for the role of Bella, but her talent was unmistakable and she was cast as Alice Cullen, the cute and friendly vampire. Twilight may be the movie that launched her career, this is not the only Saga you will see dear ole Ashley in.

Fun facts:

  • She had to learn how to pitch professionally for the Baseball scene in Twilight
  • She knew her Twilight co-star kellan Lutz prior to filming together and they are also set to appear in a movie called The Warrior next year.

Lea-MicheleLea Michele – Born Lea Michele Sarfati on August 29, 1986 in The Bronx, New York to an Italian-American and Catholic Nurse and a Spanish-Sephardic Jewish Deli owner. Lea began her acting career on Broadway (That’s a pretty good place to start) in 1995 as a replacement in the role of Young Cosette in the original New York production of Les Miserables. Since then she has appeared in many Broadway plays such as Ragtime, Fiddler On the Roof, Spring Awakening and a local production of The Diary of Anne Frank. Broadway plays however can only take you so far in terms of popularity and recognition. It wasn’t until she took on the role of Rachel Berry in CW’s hit show Glee on May 19, 2009. Lea plays a High School Glee cluber, who has an amazing singing voice and thinks she’s going to be a huge star one day (And that day has come). Michele is so good at playing a singing super star, that she was already nominated for a Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe award for her performance and won a Satellite Award for Best Actress in a Series – Musical or Comedy for Glee.

Fun Facts:

  • Lea Michele is a Jewish Singer and Actress, which is exactly who she plays on Glee
  • Lea is  rumored to play Dorothy in the 2011 rendition of Dorothy Of Oz.
