Biografie
TINSEL KOREY is a Canadian actress/singer-songwriter who first played the beautifully scarred character in The Twilight Saga: New Moon. Korey beat out 800 other actress for the role of a lifetime - playing Sam Uley’s fiancée and soul mate from the neighboring Makah Tribe.
Korey was seen in the psychological thriller Stained, she also starred in the science fiction theatrical feature Avarice alongside Kevin Sorbo, Patricia Richardson and Jason London, as well as in the film Fishing Naked.
Know for her incredible presence in numerous independent film roles, Korey started performing skits as a young child and that passion for her craft led her to pursue her dreams as a professional actress. As a teen she appeared in many commercials, like the 'Stop the Racism' campaign for Much Music.
In 2003, she landed her first professional television role, playing a bridesmaid named Jen on the FOX series "Tru Calling" starring Eliza Dushku. In 2004, while shooting Spielberg's TNT mini-series "Into the West," she composed a song of the same title that became an underground hit. The song eventually caught the attention of actor/producer Jennifer Podemski (Dance Me Outside, The Rez) who invited Korey to perform it on the 2008 Aboriginal Achievement Awards. That year she traveled throughout the southwest performing her songs in various venues.
Korey’s independent film called Mothers & Daughters directed by Carl Bessai (who she had also worked with on Unnatural & Accidental in 2006) was completely improvised by the cast, which also included Tantoo Cardinal and Babs Chula. The film was included in the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival.
Her films range from Wyvern, Scott Frank’s The Lookout starring Jeff Daniels and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Hybrid, to The Quality of Life. Her television credits include shows such as "Da Vinci's Quest," "Godivas," "Intelligence," "The Guard," and "Rabbit Fall."
Off-screen, Korey enjoys working with youth, and is involved in politics and native issues. She travels all throughout North America teaching acting and music to Native American Youth who want to get into the entertainment industry. The course focuses on the art aspect, helping them bring out their own unique talents. She released her first single entitled "Letter," which she wrote and composed herself, and released independently.
Korey also enjoys boxing, watching hockey, UFC, and playing guitar as well as piano. Besides acting, Korey also paints as well as writes and performs her own music.
