	Actors - Willa Holland

Willa Holland (born June 18, 1991) is an American model and actress. Born in Los Angeles, Holland spent the earlier part of her childhood in London. It was during that time that she spent time on the set of the film Mission: Impossible which was directed by her step-father, Brian De Palma.

As of 2006, Willa is currently lives in Los Angeles, California with her two sisters and attends public school. She is 5 feet, 7 inches tall.

Career

Holland spent the summer of 1998 in the Hamptons of Long Island with her family. After a day playing at Steven Spielberg's home, the seed was planted that she should spend her life in front of the camera.

Upon her return to Los Angeles that September, Holland first signed with Ford Modeling Agency. She began getting work immediately: her first job was for Burberry of London. She quickly became the top child model in the country working for companies like Guess?, Gap, Ralph Lauren, and many more.

The following year, 1999, De Palma took Holland to a theatrical talent agency. Since then she has shot many national commercials and several movies. She was even slated to co-star in the 2005 FOX series The Inside with fellow model Rachel Nichols, but left the show when writer Tim Minear was brought in to overhaul it. Currently, she has taken over the role of Kaitlin Cooper on The O.C. during the series' third season.

Controversy

In the last few days of January 2006, the personal MySpace profile of Willa Holland was found. On the MySpace, there was a picture of her drinking a bottle of Jack Daniel's, and a statement in her About Me section that read: :"i dont do drugs like everyone else :i do love to drink though"

Since it was found, a concerned viewer informed FOX about the findings on the page about her interest in alcohol. Shortly after this, Willa made her MySpace profile private. Her Xanga page was then found. Shortly after that, Willa deleted her Xanga. Then, a comment that Willa made on a friend's MySpace was found. It contained her personal cell phone number. This allowed many people to dial her up and eventually fill up her inbox with messages very quickly.
