M: Whether they are attending college or working their first jobs, by the age of twenty, most young adults are barely starting their lives. In the case of Amber Stevens, her exciting life began several years ago when she had the unique opportunity to sing back-up for Gladys Knight and even sang on stage at an American Idol special. When Amber decided to pursue an acting career, she quickly nabbed the role of a lifetime on ABC Family’s new series Greek. I had the pleasure of speaking with the very vigorous and incredibly sweet Amber Stevens about life before Greek, her experience on American Idol and what viewers can expect from this brand new ABC Family series. I understand you were a singer before you got into acting. What made you decide to pursue acting? W: I always wanted to act, I thought it was something I could do, something I was capable of doing. Singing was more of a priority when I was younger. I started playing piano when I was really young. My dad was in radio, so he knew a lot about music and had a lot of friends who were in music, I was just surrounded by it. As I got older, I realized that I had multiple talents, so I decided to just go for it and pursue acting.
M: You sang in the on-stage chorus for American Idol, tell us about your experience.
W: It was a special performance that aired on Fox. It was a Christmas special show. I believe it was the second or third season of American Idol. It had all of the cast from that season—Ruben Studdard, Clay Aiken and all the kids from that season. We sang Christmas songs and I was invited to sing in the on-stage chorus. It was very cool.
M: How did the role of Ashleigh on Greek come to you?
W: Just like everyone else, it was a regular audition. I had to go through the whole thing just like everyone else where you go through your first audition, then you’re invited back and you meet with the producers and then you meet with the director and finally, the network. I guess they liked me!
M: Could you give us a general description of Greek?
W: Greek is a show based on fraternity and sorority life in college. It takes place at a fictional school called Cyprus-Rhodes and focuses on a girl called Zeta Beta Zeta and two boys, Omega Chi and Kappa Tau. It’s all about the parties, all the relationships that you have, and what it’s like being a part of the Greek system. It’s an ensemble cast of eight of us—five boys and three girls and our relationships with each other. Anyone can relate to the show because it follows all the different aspects and things you can get involved with in college.
