Kirsten Renee Storms (born April 8, 1984, in Orlando, Florida) is an American actress best known for her role as Isabella "Belle" Black in the NBC soap opera Days of our Lives from 1999 to 2004, and for her multiple starring roles as Zenon in Disney Channel productions.
Storms currently stars on the ABC soap opera General Hospital and its prime-time spin-off General Hospital: Night Shift portraying Maxie Jones
Early life and career
Storms was born in Orlando, Florida. She is the daughter of Mike (a sportscaster) and Karen Storms. She has a younger sister named Gretchen and an older brother named Austin (an Army paratrooper/medic). www.filmreference.com At the age of 5, Storms was discovered by a talent scout while performing in a showcase at an acting school for children. The talent scout convinced her parents into enrolling their child in an intensive children's program in New York.
After appearing in a handful of commercials, Storms' television series jobs included a recurring role on ABC's Second Noah plus a lead role in "Sing Me a Story with Belle" on Saturday mornings, she moved with her family to California. Soon after that, she landed the role of Laura Cummings on The WB's long-running program 7th Heaven. She appeared in three episodes between 1998 and 2001, in which she played a girlfriend of Simon (played by David Gallagher). She was later chosen to play the title character in the Disney Channel's original movie Zenon: Girl of the 21st century.
The movie had the largest rating for any Disney Channel original movie at the time [citation needed]. She later reprised the role in two sequels. Storms continued to appear in a string of family shows and TV movies, including the Disney syndicated series Sing Me a Story with Belle and The Trojan Horse, a Hallmark production. She also took a supporting role in Disney's Johnny Tsunami and voiced Bonnie Rockwaller in the Disney Channel animated series Kim Possible.
Television
Days of Our Lives
In 1999, Storms signed on to play Isabella "Belle" Black on the NBC daytime drama Days of our Lives. Kirsten amicably left the soap opera after five years to focus on a prime time career. Her final episode aired on July 16, 2004.
Clubhouse
Clubhouse was another acting job as a regular cast member on a prime-time television show. The show aired on CBS and was created by Daniel Cerone and produced by superstar producer Aaron Spelling (the man who helped launch such hits as Beverly Hills, 90210, 7th Heaven and Melrose Place). The series revolved around Pete Young (Jeremy Sumpter) and his dream of becoming a professional baseball player. Storms played Pete's sister, Betsy. Betsy was a rebellious teenager often finding herself in trouble over such issues as sex, drugs, and alcohol. The role was noted as an obvious departure from her Days character, Belle, who was generally good-natured. The show ended up being cancelled after 4 episodes. It shot 8 episodes, and can be viewed on "Brilliant, But Cancelled" on cable TV.
Return to daytime
Storms returned to familiar territory on May 23, 2005, becoming the third actress to portray Maria Maximiliana "Maxie" Jones on the popular ABC soap opera General Hospital.
Other projects
Storms was in a TV commercial for Tyco (1989)[1].
Storms was a Cover Model for Talk With Me Barbie[2].
Storms was in a TV commercial for Galoob Baby Doll[3].
Storms was in a TV commercial for Sea World[4].
