Natalie Christina Whitney Reid was born in Transcona, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Natalie is the oldest of three children. In junior high years she spent most of her time reading books & volunteering after school for Parks & Recreation, Salvation Army, Nursing Homes, Teaching Vacation Bible School, Sunday School, caring for her Grandmother with Alzheimer's disease & the Museum to name a few. Her first form of income came from baby sitting the children in her neighborhood. Word soon spread because the parents & children would rave about her. Later, when she was 14 years old she began working minimum wage jobs.During High School years she never really fit in " I don't think people knew how to take me in high school. The girls used to hate me because I was thin and I never had one click I'd hang out with. If you were a nerd and I liked you, you were my friend and I'd stick up for you. If you were a jock that I could crack jokes with, I liked you too. I was open to everyone, and I don't think people knew how to take this. I was a leader and I dreamed a lot. I've always had this wild imagination. Friends would ask me to do their homework and writes stories or essays which received good reviews from the teachers. At the time it was difficult not fitting in & I still don't think that I fit in any one place. I can relate to so many people with such different lifestyles. This comes from meeting so many different people and traveling extensively. At the same time there is no structure to my life."Moving to New York is where she got her start. Starting out as a model, and being photographed by many photographers who told her she resembled Paris Hilton and there was a market for this. She decided to try it out after friends convinced her it would be a good idea. "I remember I sent my mother one of the pictures that eventually got me work as a Paris impersonator. She told my sister it was Paris Hilton. "I had no idea what was to come of it." Getting her first start in a 2006 fashion show in New York City, where the media bombarded her. "One day I woke up with my cell phone blown up with calls. Everyone was calling me to tell me that I was on the cover of the New York post and in the Daily News. I had no idea what to think of everything. It was strange. People think that fame is glamorous. I'd walk into a store and hear people whispering about me or saying something. Sure I did the interviews when the press called, but I certainly did feel ostracized. I'd go out and totally cover up to try to disguise myself. I bought all these big hats. Later I died my hair brown. I felt like a sad clown. When I got home I wanted to remove my costume, but I was the costume." Going with the flow of being a Paris Impersonator, Natalie kept working and booking many T.V shows where she could incorporate comedy into her act. The modeling transcended her into the impersonator world which transcended her into Entertainment where she is molding herself as a strong and versatile actress. Today she is per suing more meaningful roles and has relocated to Los Angeles where she works, studies and writes. Hide
