INTERVIEW WITH CRISTINE PROSPERI

 

Glitter Magazine recently sat down with Cristine Prosperi, who plays Mikayla on TeenNick’s Open Heart to talk about Open Heart, what it’s like to balance Degrassi with Open Heart (she also plays Imogen Moreno on Degrassi: The Next Generation), her fashion blog, Style Prosperity, her advice to teens struggling in high school, and her past as a classically trained singer.   

WES-DYLAN-MIKAYLA-HUB

GLITTER: When did you first start acting?

CRISTINE: I started acting when I was three years old! I was in a pasta commercial for literally 3 seconds. I got more serious with it when I was about sixteen.

GLITTER: What’s it like acting on TeenNick’s Open Heart? Who do you play?

CRISTINE: I play the fun loving character Mikayla on Open Heart. It’s an amazing experience. Working on set is always so much fun and I’m always learning new things from all my co-stars.

GLITTER: What’s it like being on both Open Heart and Degrassi? How do you balance being on both shows and a having a personal life as well?

CRISTINE: When I auditioned for Open Heart, I literally was coming off the Degrassi set, it was kind of hectic but ended up working out! Luckily for me, Degrassi and Open Heart film at different times so it’s easy to keep up my personal life.

GLITTER: Describe your perfect day off.

CRISTINE: In LA or in Toronto? Lol

In LA: Wake up, go for a hike, head to lunch with some friends, do a little shopping on Melrose, read outside, watch Sex and the City :).

GLITTER: Favorite book right now?

CRISTINE: I just finished reading Lena Dunham’s new book, it was so funny. She’s amazing.

GLITTER: Is it true you’re also a classically trained singer? Have you played any concerts?

CRISTINE: I used to sing so much when I was little! I’ve kind of taken a break from it to focus on acting. But if a role calls for singing, I’ll always pick it up again.

GLITTER: Do you cover any particular style on your fashion blog, Style Prosperity? 

CRISTINE: I wouldn’t say I have one particular style especially on the blog. My posts are like my outfits, whatever I’m feeling that day is my style. Could be flirty, could be edgy. Could be anything!

GLITTER: What spring trend do you love right now?

CRISTINE: I’m not sure if this is a ‘spring’ trend, but I love pairing light blue skinny jeans with a bold pointy stiletto pump.  So classic and clean.

GLITTER: What is one thing your fans might not know about you?

CRISTINE: That I’m obsessed with Lemons!

GLITTER: What advice can you give to teens struggling in high school?

CRISTINE: My high school experience was pretty good but I had my rough times! I would say don’t let what people say get to you, stay true to yourself and good things will come. Don’t listen to those mean girls!!! If I did, I wouldn’t have the confidence I have today! 🙂

GLITTER: What do you have planned for the upcoming year? Do you have any upcoming projects you can tell us about? 

CRISTINE: Right now I’m in LA just auditioning and experience the west coast life style!

GLITTER: How can your fans follow you?
