Kristen Alderson

Kristen Alderson is one of the most amazing young soap stars out there today. She is always 100% believable and real when she acts, which is getting harder and harder to find now. I hope she stays on One Life to Live for a long time. The only thing i think i would have to complain about would be her not being on enough. I wish she was on ever episode, i think she deserves it after what, seven years!?! Thats unbelievable. She was also in Annie on Broadway which is a great accomplishment. Television and B'way, wow. I cant wait to see her next move!

Kristen plays the character Starr Manning, on ABC's One Life To Live, with a fiery command. Through the years she has grown from a not so sweet little girl to a spirited, spunky, minature diva. She has owned the role since the day she stepped into it and she is so good at it. She can range from child-like innocence to minature adulthood. The scenes where she is concerned about her dad show the gamut of her ability. She can go from the tears of child who makes you want to hold and comfort her to a female version of Todd Manning (her TV father) who makes you step back in awe. When she is on it's definitely a day that you want to watch.



Seeing her grow up on screen has been a treat as well. From her first major scenes, to her first crush, her first kiss, and even her braces. She has only reinforced her talented ability. She's one who'll be around for many years to come.
