When I first noticed Amy, she was guest starring on a Buffy episode as Tara's cousin Beth. I followed her career as she moved onto Charmed, That 70's Show, and the Smallville episode. When I first saw 'Enchanted' I fell absolutely in love with this beautiful young lady. I had seen her as a blond, but her change to red-head was amazing. She became a completely new and incredible talent. Never have I seen such a coming-out movie as 'Enchanted'. She appears to me to be the real deal. A beautiful, kind, joyful personality that shows all on the screen. I wish that she had gotten this big break while she was in her twenties so that they could make an 'Enchanted' sequel while she is still youthful. I understand the worldwide box office take on the movie was incredible. That would normally trigger the big-money dudes at Disney to trigger the 'Giselle in Manhattan' screenplays. When all is said, I watch her career with wonder as she chooses the good scripts and stays away from the trash that some other 'starlets' have jumped on. She is my personal favorite.
Amy Adams is an amazing actress and singer. I have only seen her in Enchanted so far, but she did one hell of a job playing a fairytale girl. I thought the movie was really sweet and funny too. My grandparents loved it too! You know, it kinda reminded me of the old Disney princess movies I used to watch when I was little. Amy has a beautiful singing voice too. I love the songs she sings in Enchanted. She can sing a little pop and classical. Her voice is meant for Broadway. She is amazing! I even have her songs from Enchanted on my iPod. She is sooo talented!!!
Back in 2001 I was watching Smallville, In one episode, Amy Adams was in it. To me she was an unknown actress. The next time I saw her was in the movie with Will Ferral 'Ricky Bobby.' I didn't like that film. When I finally saw Enchanted, I though that she was such a good actress. I even forgot that she was on Smallville til I read her movie and tv list at IMDB.com. I think her career is really taking off. I thought she was great in Catch me if you can. I look forward to see many more movie she makes. I give her 5 stars.
I first met Amy when we were both working up at the Heritage Square Music Hall in Golden Colorado. It was over 10 years ago when we both celebrated our 21st birthdays there. I remember her being as beautiful and talented then as she is today. It's been amazing to have the opportunity to watch her journey. For her fans, if you find yourself in Golden CO someday, look around at our pictures to find one of her in a pirate outfit sporting that enchanting smile. Congrats Amy! We all wish you success and happiness!
