Paola Rey

This Colombian actress, born December 19th, 1979, never expected her life would change since an audition in 1996. With a bit of self-confidence, Paola went to RTI, a colombian TV Production Company, for that audition. 2 days later Paola was required to join the cast of a new soap opera: _"Fuego Verde" (1998)_. She was amazed and so were her family because of her lack of experience and references in drama. Since then Paola started to take drama courses, looking forward to improve her performance. She left her industrial engineering career at La Sabana University and spent time on her acting career. In the end of the year Paola was rewarded with a TV & Novelas Award (a Latin American showbiz publication) as best female breakthrough performance. In 1998 Paola cast in another soap opera: 'Castillo de Naipes'. The same year she got a role in 'Corazon Prohibido'. The following year signed a contract with Cenpor TV Colombia for another role in _"¿Por qué Diablos?" (1999)_. That was the time when Paola also auditioned for a new role for Caracol TV Colombia, and got the leading rol as Fabiola in La baby Sister (2000). She spent her talent and made her character emotionally balanced. The soap opera became a success, after 'Yo soy Betty La Fea', in Colombia and abroad. One of Paola's hobbies is racing cars (she is dating a racing driver) and her expectation is to work on Broadway.
