Who is she (according to her myspace profile)
First thing is FIRST I am NOT A MODEL. I am an actress n artist. I began acting while continuing the pursuit of my dream, to become an artist. Modeling has been something that followed me however I never aspired to be one PERIOD! Any type of modeling I do now is to promote my music, major ad campaigns or my music sponsorships.
I'm a bilingual Spanish speaking tasty mixed cocktail of Puerto Rican, and Salvadorian ! Island CARAMEL Latina with many flavors. I may sometimes be confused as the girl next door, but in reality I am the most fearless tomboy you will ever meet, independent with a REAL down home L.A feisty no holds barred tude!!! Not to be confused as rude ahah. Born and raised in the grimey streets of L.A, South Central and the Pico Union district i'm STREET smarter than the average boo boo bear. Yo I have my Puma tracksuit and shelltops with my phat laces tattooed to my body. I guess it's the back in the day b-girl in me :) I love my career!! If you are asking yourself, who is this Somaya girl??? If you don't already know then here we go. Let's make a long story short! I was discovered several years ago when I was working the front desk at a hotel in Beverly Hills. I was taking 3 different buses to get to work from my home in South Central to BH, working two jobs and going to college part time in the evenings. Believe me, I did not have it easy, I could go into detail but I won't. I'm not ashamed to say we moved around alot because well we couldn't always afford our rent in the hoods of L.A, Compton, Denker park area, the jungles, Pico Union district you name it I lived in the grimey areas. It was a dream to me to be given the opportunity to make a better life for me and my family. But it was more for my family they deserve it after all they did for me :)
I love you mom and dad!
When I was a child living in South Central I would sing in church, rap on the streets and was involved in many musical and dance after school programs, theatre, chorus and played the violin. YES I CAN play the violin. My dream was to become a great actress and musician. When I grew up hah kinda like a toys are us kid, I began to take theatre in college (UCLA) as becoming a sucessful musician, actress was my dream that turned into reality. I started out from the bottom and well I worked my way to where I am today and I continue to do that now. My career took off after 5 years of GRINDING, self promoting, tears, disapointments, but I hung in there and NEVER stopped believing in ME! Even when others didn't believe I kept on truckin. And well here I am today, 45 National commercials, 8 films, 3 songs that have hit the radio, 35 magazine cover or features, 4 television shows, later i'm stillt he same girl :)
