Bailey WashingtonMy name is Bailey, but you can call me B. Im turning 16 in 2 months and can easily pass as a 17 year old female. I am light skinned female with brown/black hair and hazel/brown eyes. People look at me and wonder if I’m light skinned or Caucasian. I am 5″4 and have no acting experience, but people insist I be a model or an actor. Also, I only speak English, but with the right teacher, I can speak any language. I live in Kalamazoo, MI, and I don’t think my mom will fly us out there. I’ve always wanted to act, and I honestly think that this is my chance. Thank You, Bailey 0 Reply August 8, 2018
