COLLINS PENNIÉ is a fabulous actor. Fabulous! He was born in 1987 in Brooklyn, New York, and spent half of his childhood in numerous foster homes. Collins moved out on his own at the age of 15. His undeniable talent and determination were quickly noticed, and after only six months in show business he landed his first role in a TV daytime drama. Collins caught the attention of Ford Model Management who signed him up: soon after he was chosen to be a part of the successful “ck One" fragrance campaign for Calvin Klein. To date, Collins has a number of films under his belt, including All Fall Down, the Oscar®-nominated Half Nelson, Prom Night, and Fired Up. And talking about Fired Up, the brand new Jelly Belly flavour Chili Mango is our nomination for Collins Pennié. Hot!
WALTER PEREZ is gorgeous. He was raised in South Los Angeles geographically not far from Hollywood, but a very long distance for under privileged kids wanting to get into show business. At High School, Walter heard about Colors United, a performing arts group aimed at inner-city high school students - his talent was recognized and he spent the next 3 years perfecting his acting, singing and dancing skills. Walter juggles his radio, TV and movie work alongside getting a degree in Criminal Justice from Cal State University Fullerton. He has just completed the title role in Emilio – another movie to look out for this summer. Walter is definitely our Strawberry Cheesecake Jelly Belly flavour nomination. No one else would be a better fit!
