Amanda Michelle Seyfried is an American actress known for her roles in movies like ‘Mean Girls' and ‘Jennifer's Body,' which fetched her several awards and nominations. Beginning her career as a model when she was just 11, she eventually branched out into acting as well when she was a teenager. Starting with minor roles in TV series, she made her big-screen debut as Karen Smith in the teen comedy ‘Mean Girls.' This role brought her mainstream fame and established her as an upcoming actress to reckon with. She is also well-known for her portrayal of the title character's murdered best friend, Lilly Kane, in the TV series ‘Veronica Mars.' Though renowned for her beauty and sex appeal, Amanda refuses to be typecast as just another pretty face. The talented and ambitious young actress loves to challenge herself by taking up varied roles that force her to move out of her comfort zone and provide her the chance to develop her acting skills. She has done comedies, horrors, dramas, erotic thrillers, and romantic movies, among other genres, and has never failed to impress the audience with her impeccable performances. In addition to being an actress, she is also a singer and has contributed a few songs to the soundtracks of some of the movies she has starred in.
