OCCUPATION:
Leader of The Visitors
On V, she plays Anna, the beautiful leader of the Visitors. So forgive us if we occasionally forget that this Brazilian-born actress isn’t a suspicious, scaly alien, but rather a talented performer who was trained at the prestigious Juilliard School—here on Earth.
