Sarah Roberts(IX)
- Actress
Sarah, who credits her striking looks to an eclectic mix of Australian
and Sri Lankan was born Sarah Kathryn Roberts in Melbourne, Australia.
Her youth was spent at a dance studio. At age 18, promptly after high
school graduation, she left her Melbourne life for a career in dance in
Tokyo, Japan. She got distracted and started deejaying and singing as a
hobby with her best friend in the local clubs around town. They called
themselves VAMP. This led to writing and recording a song ("Neon
Lights") with Grammy Award winning American rapper Eve, known for such
songs as "Let Me Blow Ya Mind", with Gwen Stefani. Paying her bills
every month were her appearances in commercials. Acting was not high on
the young dancer's priority list until she returned from Tokyo, aside
from a series of commercials and appearances on Australian soap,
Neighbours, not for lack of interest but for the fact that she was
content with her life in Tokyo as it was. It was in 2012, that a new
chapter began in her fairy tale life. Gregory Apps, a casting director
known for such films as Mission Impossible II (2000), spotted Sarah.
Shortly thereafter Sarah found herself with one very important
audition... Felony (2013). She was determined she wanted the supporting
role and after three call backs, beat out the competition.
