 "I feed off of their energy and give my best performance with a large crowd."
Cool Celeb.com recently interviewed Ms. Menina Fortunato, known to Star Trek fans as the ever lovely green Orion slave girl featured in Star Trek: Enterprise. Topics discussed included her career as a dancer, teacher, choreographer, model, and actress. Check out some excepts after the break.
When are you at your best – on stage during a Live concert or in studio? How do you handle the adrenaline rush in front of the crowd?
I love being in front of the camera, but I will say that there is nothing like being on stage in front of thousands of screaming spectators. It’s an incredible rush that I can’t explain. I feed off of their energy and I usually give my best performance with a large crowd. Strangely enough, I get more nervous performing in a studio where there are only a few viewers.
You have been a dancer, teacher, choreographer, model and actor, how has been the journey up till now?
I have so many different interests, so Instead of focusing on one craft, I tend to always have my hands in many baskets. It’s a blessing and a curse, but I don’t think I would want it any other way. As long as I am in the entertainment business, I am happy. You can go to Meninaonline.com to stay up to date with what I am working on.
Any words of wisdom, you’d like to give to the budding artists?
Stay focused, study your craft, market yourself and don’t every stop dreaming.
Describe yourself in one word.
Driven.
