Sara Paxton Beautiful Life

It's the longest Sara Paxton's gone without an acting job, ever since The Beautiful Life was canceled by the CW network.

In an interview with Latina Sara Paxton said, "You've got to have time to let a show get its legs and find an audience, especially when they're putting zero dollars into advertising. And we were slowly going in that direction. Everyday I was getting emails from Japan and Brazil and the UK from people who were buying the show on iTunes and were going nuts over it. And if they had just given it more time to really catch a fan base I think it could've been huge for the CW."

Paxton told WWD that she had an eclectic sense of style, where she mixes high-end labels such as Chloé with fast-fashion labels like Topshop.

"This is the first time I've actually met people in the industry or worn designer clothes," said Sara Paxton. "I have never even been to a fashion show. I just can’t even believe I get to live this life without actually living it. I’m superexcited to wear awesome clothes and meet amazing people. I knew nothing except for buying magazines at the grocery store."

The part-Mexican Los Angeles native, who has been modeling and acting since she was six, was left jobless and stranded in New York after the show's cancellation. "We thought we were going to be here until December. Literally we packed up our lives from Los Angeles to New York. I spent two months and thousands of dollars without a paycheck moving to NY. And now they just say, 'oh, peace, you're done?' We all signed 6 month leases, and now we all have to figure out how to get out of our leases, and I have to figure out how to get all my furniture back. I don't know what to do with this NY furniture."

But the experience of filming The Beautiful Life was not a total loss. Sara Paxton is now dating Nico Tortorella, her co-star from the show. She's also got her pretty blonde tresses cropped.

Sara is 5'7" tall and has ambitions beyond acting, which include owning her own production company and studying history in college.



21-year old Sara Paxton has always kept her hair long, and should let it grow back. As a young girl she got to model in a series of Barbie doll commercials: "I loved those, because they gave me free Barbies afterward. I had every single one of them," Paxton remembers. "I was so sad when I got too tall to continue doing the ads."
