How would you define
your style?
My style is regal, vintage, fun, and comfortable.
Why did you begin
your personal style blog Amylovesu.com?
When I was young I would always play make believe and dress
up. I found that creating different looks that brought out the best in someone
really got me excited, so I started styling my friends whenever we would go out
or have an event. I had a real knack for
styling and this was a chance to fulfill a lost dream of starting a clothing
line. I was also inspired to start this
blog to show all the different sides of my personality, and introduce people to
my music. This blog is a platform to help the overall brand of who I am.
As an artist who is
an actor and singer how do you balance working in both fields?
The performing aspect of being an overall entertainer is
what excites me. It can be challenging
at times as far as scheduling goes, but I make the time because I love
performing. Organization is important. I
use a daily planner and work with my manager to help me plan out my days. I have written over 40 songs for television
shows, and when I’m not writing songs, I am auditioning for roles. Music is a
personal creative process that I can offer through my own experiences. As far
as acting goes, you serve the character’s needs. The creative process has some
similarities to music, but in acting you serve the character and the vision it
was sought out to look like.
What have been the
most challenging aspects of being an actor and what are your future
aspirations?
The audition process has to be the most difficult part for
me. You audition consistently and have
to bring the same enthusiastic energy as you did in the previous audition. I have a love/hate relationship with this
process. Its hard, but I love the
challenge. In my future as an actor, I
see myself exploring a various amount of characters. I want to be a respected
actor. My dream role would be to play a sweet and loving woman who is actually
an undercover killer! A Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde type character.
What influences you
on a daily basis to continue doing great work in your artistry?
I’m influenced by a variety of music that speaks to my soul
from alternative, electro, to salsa music. I’m influenced by what God shows me every
day. Most of all, I am influenced by my family.
Tell us more about
your non-profit organization LoverMovement you created with your friend Jennifer.
Jennifer and I wanted to create a platform where anyone with
an idea can create a movement inspired by love. This includes helping out in
the community and volunteering at shelters.
Her and I wanted to volunteer at a church, but we were required to also
take classes, which we did not want to do. So we thought, why can’t we start
our own organization? One that doesn’t have strings attached. You can volunteer
and do not necessarily have to be linked to one type of organization. By 2015
we want LoverMovement to be worldwide. We do a lot of our work one on one and
follow up with the people we help.
What are your plans
to expand your brand?
I’m trying to introduce myself to the world so they are
familiar with who I am. I want to create an empire where I’m able to do
everything I love to do under the “Amy Correa Bell” umbrella. I want to create
my own opportunities and get to a place where I am not pigeonholed.
In my musical career, I want to make music that is timeless
that I can perform around the world to all walks of life. I want to make music
that changes the atmosphere. I want to inspire people to make their own music
as well.
