    Bethany Joy Galeotti is a master at her trade and then some. She's an actress, singer, director, producer, writer and entrepreneur.Her resume? Impressive. Her talent? Infinite. Anyone who doesn't already know who this woman is, is missing out! hide show

    She acts on One Tree Hill, she sings as a member of Everly, she has directed several episodes of One Tree Hill, she wrote and produced a musical based on the hit novel The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks, and she owns a restaurant with her husband called Galeotti. Her resume? Impressive. Her talent? Infinite. Anyone who doesn't already know who who this woman is, is missing out! Definitely a celebrity worth watching these next couple of years. I learned who Bethany Joy Galeotti was watching One Tree Hill and ever since then I've been following her career through the ups-and-downs and while she's not all over the Hollywood scene she's definitely going to take the world by storm once people catch wind of her.

    Terribly underrated actress who also happens to be an incredibly talented musician, as well. hide show

    The first thing I ever saw Bethany in, happens to be her most famous role, One Tree Hill. For eight seasons now, Bethany has played Haley James Scott, and while originally, I was a much bigger fan of Sophia Bush, in recent years, Bethany's talents as an actress and musician have swayed be over to her side. Her depression storyline late in season 7 was the biggest reason I became a bigger fan of hers. She was so good in that storyline, I truly believed the Emmys should have overlooked the fact that she was on TheCW, and nominate her. She was that good. She also seems incredibly genuine in real life, and those are the kind of actors that I really tend to become fans of. Speaking of her music, while I was more into her music pre-2007, her newer music still proves she has immense talent, but her new transition to this new form of music, is not something I particularly like, but the songs themselves are great, I just don't enjoy the genre she currently ponders in. I would hope Bethany continues both acting and singing post-One Tree Hill, because One Tree Hill is only the tip of the iceberg for her.

    Tutor girl. Class actress with a great voice. hide show

    A month ago I hadn't seen Dawson's Creek (at least not more than an episode now and then). Suddenly I found myself marathoning through the entire 128 episodes in a little more than a week and then re-doing it only to follow the romantic part of 2 of the roles in the show and forward past all other parts of the show. I never thought history would repeat itself, and for sure not as fast as it has done.

    Bethany Joy Galeotti as Haley James in One tree hill made it happen again in less than 10 days. 10 days ago I hadn't seen One tree hill either. While One tree hill is not an ended show yet thankfully, I've now seen all episodes released so far(116) and then re-seen ALL scenes Bethany Joy Galeotti plays in the show...

    Why? Just because she is so incredible talented. There is no doubt alot of it comes from the role of Haley James, which in my book is one of the better ones in teen dramas, but a role is never better than the actor/actress giving life to it and BJoy is probably THE best TV-actress I know of.

    WARNING: Some One tree hill spoilers will follow for those of u not seen the show... feel free to fast forward.

    Haley James Scott have had the pleasure of a very wide emotional journey so far in One tree hill. We've got to see her fall in love for the very first time, We've seen her being so dissapointed in Nathan's bookie involvment, nannytrouble and the effects for their marriage because of those and other problems, we've seen her struggle between her love and her music, we've seen her getting the loving response from the audience while singing and realize she can do it, we've seen her trying to save her marriage and the desperate fight to get her husband back while not feeling worthy, we've seen her taking care of her son and playing with him as a loving mom, we've seen her afraid as her son is kidnapped and her husband plays slamball with his injury history, we've seen her struggle with Nathan's accident and the following months of dark skies with her husband looking more like his dad than the boy she fell in love with and we've seen her screaming her heart out when her husband jumps into the river after the renewing wed ceremony and so many many many more scenes worth remembering.

    WARNING ended:

    During all those scenes she portraits her role with such credibility. It's possible to feel her love, her suffering and her happiness or hope or whatever required when she acts. You believe in the emotions she portraits, because she carries it in a way it's just impossible to neglect it. It's not only the script, but it's the talent of BJoy that makes Haley James my favorite role. U can read it in BJoy's face, in her eyes and in her entire body language when she describes her role's emotions in any given scene. I've never seen anything like in in a TV-show. In a 90 min movie it's not that uncommon, but in a so far 166 episodes running TV-show it's nothing short of fantastic acting.

    In my humble opinion she's such an amazing actress I've no doubt she can carry a TV-show or a movie on her own. She's got all that talent and I haven't even touched on her look or her voice. She's not another skinny actress hoping to live on her looks, but none the less an incredible beautiful woman gifted with all other kind of talents as well. When it comes to her voice as a singer I'm not gonna lie. My favorite songs are those seen in the show, but I find myself YouTube searching for all those other songs from BJoy as well. I don't believe I'll ever rate her singing skills above her acting skills, but being my favorite actress that really doesn't tell a lot...

    I don't like basing person reviews on a single role, but in the case of Haley James the role have had more than enough going on to make my opinion of Bethany Joy Galeotti fullfilled. She's pure class and while I hope for alot more One tree hill to come, I'm sure BJoy will go on sucsessfully whatever the future brings. I admire the way she represent so much more than all other actors/actresses in todays TV and I hope she'll never lose her way on the climb towards the fame she deserve.

    One tree hill creator Mark Schwahn has said Bethany Joy Galeotti are the most talented of the cast. I say she's the most talented TV-show star I know of...

    One of the best! hide show

    One of the best ! Talented actress and an even more talented musician ! As far as her acting skills go she is amasing, when she plays a caracter you feel the depth that she brings to it , if she is smiling or crying you belive it . And ... this is simply my opinion that she's not apriciated enough . And her music . . . simply said : beautiful ! Every song has something diferent. Wheter they are funny or filled with emotions they are in complete harmony with the music and you can listen to them over and over again and never get enough.
    And on top of all of this she is one of the most beautiful actreses and she doesn't even try that hard.
