The star is none other than Julie Brown, 66. 

Julie was born in August 1958 and was raised in the city of Van Nuys, California. 

The star later attended Los Angeles Valley College before enrolling at the American Conservatory Theater located in San Francisco. 

She began her long-lasting career in the industry in the early 80s by making small appearances in shows such as Happy Days and Laverne & Shirley. 

In 1988, Brown starred in the cult classic Earth Girls Are Easy by taking on the role of Candy. 

Other celebrities that were cast in the movie included Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans. 

The premise is: ‘A young Southern California woman, who has just caught her fiancé cheating on her, befriends three humanoid aliens after their spaceship lands in her swimming pool,’ per an IMDB synopsis.   

The film was based on Brown’s songs from her 1984 EP titled Goddess In Progress – but bombed at the box office upon its release. 

However, Earth Girls Are Easy was later adapted into stage performances – with one starring Kristen Chenoweth – but never became an official production.

During a past interview with Socialite Life, the actress recalled pitching the project and had been told she could not play the lead role of Valerie due to not being a ‘big enough star.’ 

‘And, you know, it was kind of horrible. I mean, yeah, it was horrible,’ she admitted to the publication, referencing to the film’s flop at the box office.

‘I loved seeing the movie become something. I did love that. I mean, that’s probably my all-time favorite thing, to write something and have it get produced and manifested and be something, you know what I mean? That’s the best.’ 

From 1989 through 1992, Brown also starred on the MTV comedy/music video show Just Say Julie – which she created. 

In 1995, the actress also starred in Clueless alongside Alicia Silverstone, Paul Rudd, Brittany Murphy and Stacey Dash. 

In the film, she portrayed the role of Ms. Stoeger – a gym teacher – and later played Coach Millie Deemer in the 90s series based on the movie. 

Other projects Brown has made appearances in include Murphy Brown, Family Affair, The Middle, Melissa & Joey, Paradise Falls and Six Feet Under. 

Julie has also been involved with the Disney channel and appeared in one episode of the hit series Wizards Of Waverly Place.

The film was based on Brown's songs from her 1984 EP titled Goddess In Progress - but bombed at the box office upon its release; seen above in the 1988 film with Geena Davis

The film – which also starred The Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato – was followed by a sequel in 2010. 

While talking to Smashing Interviews Magazine back in 2010, she reflected on the development of Camp Rock. 

‘My brother and I wrote the first four scripts. When we finished the first one (Camp Rock), they said, “Oh, the Jonas Brothers are going to be in it.” I said, “Who?” But I did realize they were great.’ 

She added, ‘We actually had to change the name of the script when we were shooting in Canada because some girls up there were trying to find them. So shooting was insane. 

‘I played the camp counselor in the first one. Disney wanted to change the story for Camp Rock 2 and my character wasn’t in it, but I still got credit for being the creator.’

Julie’s last credit on IMDB is the television movie titled Craft Me A Romance (2023). 

During her interview with Socialite Life, Brown stated that her biggest ‘accomplishments’ thus far was both her son and her career. 

'My brother and I wrote the first four scripts. When we finished the first one (Camp Rock), they said, "Oh, the Jonas Brothers are going to be in it." I said, "Who?" But I did realize they were great,' Brown expressed

‘And I think having a career that I kind of made up myself. That’s the other thing I’m really happy about – because I didn’t even really think about it that much until the last couple of years, and I realized I’ve been really lucky to get to do all these things.

Julie added, ‘I didn’t think of it like that because I was just trying to do the next thing. But I think that’s an accomplishment. 

‘I wanted to do these things and I got to make a lot of them happen,’ she further expressed.
