Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Lauren Collins. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
I love Paige because she brings so much to the show. She started out as this rude and popular girl that always seemed to not mind hurting people to get what she wanted. As her character went through issues (getting raped, falling in love, experimenting with Alex) she became a much mroe real person and a tad bit more sympathetic towards others. She still held her alpha girl status, but she was a lot less rude and much more understanding than she used to be. Paige is sassy, smart, and sure to bring dramam to whatever episode she's in, and thats what makes her such a classic.
I absolutely love Lauren. I fell in love with her character on Degrassi and absolutely loved her as Alicia on The Best Years as well. She just has such a way of owning each character she plays. She does a great job of tackling tough storylines and always seems to show the inner-growth of her character. I hope to see more roles for her in the future. I'd love to see her in a horror or action movie. Personally I'm tired of the same old "it girls" in Hollywood. I also agree that Ashley and Brenda are good comedic actresses, but so far I have not seen them expand their talents to other types of roles. IMO Lauren has proven that she can do it all.
She's really one of my favorite actresses on Degrassi. No lies. I mean, she portrays her character Paige so well, that you wouldn't nor couldn't see anyone playing as her, but Lauren. Just look at her acting skills once in a while. Especially in episodes like "Shout" or "Ghost in the Machine" you really see her pull through in the show. She deserves that perfect 10.0 because she's simply amazing. She's talented, and when you're talented you deserve the highest of the high. I really really love Lauren, and I love her acting skills in Degrassi. She rocks. Simply amazing. Nuff said.
I just have to say that I COMPLETELY disagree with you, littlebabie2. You are so increibley off. How is Lauren overused when all I hear about is the Disney stars?! Oh, and I'd love to know how she doesn't have the same sprinkle as Ashley and Brenda. I do not know if you are aware of this but, Ashley and Brenda hardly have to ACT. The shows they are in do not deal with the same things Lauren deals with in her shows. To be an actress, you should be able to act. Not just laugh all the time and fall once in a while. Acting is about being challenged, which is what Lauren is everyday on Degrassi. So, I'd have to say Lauren is TERRIBLEY underrated and deserves way more credit than she gets. Enough with all the Disney, I am sorry, but that is not acting. Let the true actresses shine!
I mean, she's a good actress on Degrassi The Next Generation, but too many people would give her a 10. Degrassi is OK, but Lauren Collins is good. Just, like, average and overused. Well, she is good, nobody can ever say she is not a really good actress. Nobody can even say she is OK, she is good, don't get me wrong, she is a good actress, but I think too many people think she is the best thing since iPods and computers. I mean, come on. Lauren Collins is good, but I just don't think she has the extra sprinkle that Ashley Tisdale, Brenda Song, and Mischa Barton have.
