DeAndre Stephens

Hi my name is DeAndre Stephens I’m 16 years old, I’m from Atlanta GA.I was born on March 27th 2003. I was born with Sickle Cell, and diagnosed with Epilepsy at the age of 5 Years Old, but on May 23th 2019 I became seizure free. Due to my SickleCell I can’t play contact sports. Acting is my passion & is an activity that I can participate in that doesn’t require rough physical contact.  When I was little I had a stroke, was put on life support, had internal bleeding and fluid around my brain. I have always wanted to be an actor since I was 5 years old. I have been to twelve acting auditions since I was 9 years old. I have also taken acting classes with Robert Vito. Some of the auditions that I have attended were held by “ATG”, “Shine”, “Disney”, “John Casablanca”, “Industry Network”, Etc. I love to put smiles onto people faces. I will never give up on what I want to be and accomplish. This is my passion and I’m never giving up! I act, and I am a potential model. I have always wanted to be an actor and model. It is what I have dreamed of doing & becoming.  Acting is very fun and cool. The main reason that I want to be an actor & model is putting smiles onto people faces. I love to sign up for auditions and make people smile. I also have been singing in the church choir since I was 9 years old at  “Saint John Baptist Church”. Lots of people seem to enjoy when I perform And sing. When I am performing I feel very proud of myself and always have a smile on my face all the time no matter what. My favorite television channels are“OWN” & ”BET” I would love if I could appear on one or more of their shows. My dream is to be on the Ellen Degeneres Show, and Steve Harvey show. to meet her, Steve Harvey, and Mr. Tyler Perry i have always wanted to meet them and show them my Talent. IO am one of their biggest fans. Ellen and Steve Harvey are very sweet, helpfuil, caring people. I have always wanted to be one of Mr. Tyler Perry Actors since I was 7 Years Old. I always say to myself & others that “If you really want to be or do something it isn’t that hard just keep on trying, don’t give up, and have faith.” It was nice sharing my story with you thanks for taking the time to allow me to share it with you. have a wonderful marvelous day.!
