From Coupeville athlete to world-wide star.
It’s a long trip, but one Kenzi and Chloe LaRue are hoping to take.
The sisters, who have starred for various sports teams in town the last few years — older sister Kenzi is currently the #2 singles player for the CHS girls’ tennis squad — have a huge opportunity at their feet.
But they’ll need the help of their local fans to take advantage.
The LaRues emerged from auditions at Seattle Talent — the agency where they are signed and take acting classes — and have received invitations to the International Modeling and Talent Association convention in New York in July.
While there, they would have the chance to take part in competitions including monologues, commercials, and improvisation.
The convention, which is attended and judged by hundreds of fashion and talent agents, personal managers, casting directors, network representatives and music producers, also offers modeling and singing competitions.
Among those discovered at IMTA are Katie Holmes, Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Biel, Breaking Bad’s Aaron Paul and future Hobbit Elijah Woods.
Kenzi’s audition in Seattle included a performance of Adele’s Don’t You Remember, while Chloe sang Lost Boy by Ruth B.
To raise the money needed to make the trip, the sisters have started a GoFundMe page and are seeking sponsors.
