North Coast Bawse of the Month: Katy Berry
This is a part of a series featuring a different North Coast members. This month Katy Berry answered a few questions about herself:
- How long have you been with North Coast? What do you do at North Coast?
I've been a cast member with North Coast for two years. I auditioned to get on and totes crushed it, but the first time I did a show with the team I was so nervous my whole body went numb and I almost cried. I fought through it though, and now I'm addicted to rapping about cheese.
- What's the first song you memorized all the words to?
I bought the single of "Stay" by Lisa Loeb and listened to it on repeat. I memorized the words wrong through, because I always sang: "So Mother Hubbard who was waitin' for the others who were dyin' since the day they were born." I turned it into an existential nursery rhyme. Even as a child I was v subversive.
- What's something in your room you'd want to show off to us right now?
What WOULDN'T I show you?! My room is a magical and mystical fortress of pussy power. I have a taxidermy deer head on the wall covered in scarves, killed by my dad in 1987, the year of my birth. The deer's soul inhabited my body, obvi. Behind my bed is a huge tapestry of my face looking regal af, (a gift from my ex). And there's a large almost life-size painting I did of my arse in twerk position, with a bush baby head, surrounded by a banana peel and a donut. It's mad symbolic. Seriously though- I think girls' rooms can sometimes become nesting grounds for negative energy because we pick ourselves apart in our mirrors and try on clothes and say "ugh I hate this or that." When I moved into my current room, I resolved to make it a creative haven of self-love and positivity. I think it's worked wonders.
- Do you have any projects or shows we should know about?
HELLS YEAH I DO! I have a brand spankin' new webseries called Katy in the Bush and the first episode is dropping on June 28th. You can check it out at www.KatyBerryComedy.com, or follow me on Facebook.
