Editor Picks & Commentary
Paulette is warm, big-hearted, and a bit rough around the edges — her humor comes from sincerity, not from forcing jokes. In an audition, focus on showing her vulnerability underneath the bravado. She’s someone who tries to laugh off her insecurities, but they’re very real to her, especially when it comes to love and self-worth. Play her as someone who wants to be optimistic but hasn’t always been given reasons to be. Your performance should feel grounded, relatable, and emotionally present.
