జీవిత చరిత్ర
By the age of five, the golden-haired child actress, television personality, and author had already enchanted the entire world. Inspiring smiles from viewers everywhere, two years on this tiny and young entertainer has just begun her stint in the limelight.
As half of the duo of Sophia Grace and Rosie with her cousin Sophia Grace Brownlee, the naturally gorgeous and quick-witted Rosie rose to global popularity at only five-years-old. Together, the UK-born girls (and best friends forever -BFFs!) recorded their own take on Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass" complete with Rosie's shining smile and adorable dance moves.
After posting the video on YouTube, the clip went viral literally everywhere, making the pair a household name. Hip-hop icon Sean "Diddy" Combs tweeted he wanted to sign them, while Ryan Seacrest, Justin Bieber, and others spread the video on their socials. Within a couple of months the clip had amassed over 100 million views and Ellen DeGeneres reached out to the girls, offering them a regular spot on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
Rosie, her mum, dad and cousin's family all hopped a plane to the U.S., met the wonderful people on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and launched their own segment on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. That segment, Tea Time with Sophia Grace and Rosie became a fan favorite both on the air and on Ellen's website.
Beautiful in her signature clothing, Rosie's quiet confidence is the yin to her cousin Sophia Grace's bold yang and the girls' love for each other is contagious.
By the end of 2012, Rosie had even garnered a Teen Choice Award in the category of "Choice Web Star" for her spirited interviews, heart-warming performances and kind-hearted personality.
With Rosie's caring, compassionate demeanor and humorously insightful questions, celebrity interview subjects ranging from Katy Perry and Rihanna to Academy Award-winner Reese Witherspoon to fellow Brit Hugh Grant instantly became enamored of her. Rosie is equally at home interviewing celebrities on the red carpet or in the studio as part of "Tea Time With Sophia Grace and Rosie" on Ellen.
Rosie has conducted interviews at major award shows including the American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, and Grammy Awards twice and made everybody from Russell Brand and Vince Vaughn chuckle on Ellen. She also helped launch the Sophia Grace and Rosie web series as well. To date, online videos featuring Rosie have been viewed well over one billion.
As a natural evolution, her talents expanded to encompass television and film.
Alongside Sophia Grace, Rosie was tapped to star in a pivotal episodes of the Nickelodeon hit, Sam & Cat. Working with the likes of Ariana Grande and Jennette McCurdy, Rosie immediately stood out, causing big laughs.
The pint-size performer went on to star in her very own film with Sophia Grace entitled Sophia Grace and Rosie's Royal Adventure due out on video and on-demand via Warner Bros. in Spring of 2014. The studio has inked a five-picture deal with Rosie and right now she's also preparing to star in her own primetime show produced for NBC by Warner Bros. Television and Ellen DeGeneres Productions. The show will be written and developed by legendary Murphy Brown creator Diane English, and it sees Rosie soar like never before.
January 2014 also sees the launch of Rosie's very own merchandising campaign as part of the Sophia Grace and Rosie team. A collaboration with leading toy manufacture Just Play, the line features the finest in "princess wear" including tiaras, tutus, dresses, and fashion dolls. It first hits shelves at Claire's and Walmart with more outlets in the near future. It's the first official glimpse at Rosie's fashion design style.
In between it all, she released her very first book, Tea Time With Sophia Grace and Rosie. It hit #2 on the New York Times Bestseller's list and #6 on Amazon.com's Top Books list. Two more "Sophia Grace and Rosie" books are in the works for Scholastic.
At the same time, she enjoys a happy and healthy childhood as a compassionate friend and great listener. With countless friends at school, Rosie loves studying and learning about electricity and science in the classroom. When she's at home in the UK, you can find her doting on her "famous" and adorable pet hamster-Princess Fluffy-or styling her dolls. With a tight-knit family and unbreakable bond with her cousin, she most looks forward to "being the best big sister ever" very soon when her mom gives birth.
She splits her time between Los Angeles and the UK.
