Melissa Collazo, yes, the actor who came into popularity after “ One of Us is Lying” turned out to be a huge hit. I watched the seasons, and through the season, I was just watching her. How can a 23-year-old girl be so talented? Well, it is what it is, though.
You know, when we think of actors, one thing that we always assume is that there is no struggle; they are god gifted or lucky. But the truth is, your luck also waits for you to put in that hard work.
I’m not saying that all the actors are hard-working, and there is nothing called nepotism. It happens. If your parents are actors, you definitely get into that industry pretty easily, but to remain there, you got to work hard every day!
Melissa started her career at the young age of 8. Yes, you are reading that right. She did for real. You know, I was going through one of her interviews, and she told a story about her childhood dream that just touched my heart.
Would you like to hear it? You will fall in love with her after that.
Her Childhood Dream Coming True
Melissa Collazo went to Comic Con, and there one reporter asked about her experience. That young girl instantly recalled her childhood fascination with Comic Con and how she loved going there and taking autographs from celebrities.
A few years back, she made a promise to herself that next time she’ll be coming as a star, not as a fan. You won’t believe Melissa actually did that and appeared as a celebrity.
Isn’t it so romantically ambitious? I mean, I make a thousand promises to myself and only end up committing to two of them. But I think this is what I’m supposed to do. Something is better than nothing, you know!
Her Journey as an Actor
Melissa Started her acting career when she was just 8. Yes, it started with all the auditions and minor acting projects. You might not be aware of the fact that she was also a part of the famous series “Stranger Things.”
Back then, nobody noticed her because, you know, this is how most new actors are treated. But “One of Us is Lying” gave her a rebirth as an actor. Starting from there, she has never stopped.
Final Words
You tell me when you look at actors, do you also think about their struggles or think about how privileged they are?
Well, it is fine both ways. Do you know what I think? I think about their net worth. Haha! I know I’m acting cheap, but I recently checked the net worth of Xherdan too.
Oh my God! He is just amazing with his money. He has an excellent car collection, and a luxurious house, he’s got everything. But I also looked at his hard work. This man is a never stopping soul.
I think he will be playing more than his retirement age.
