Biography
Early life
Nathalie Kelley was born in Lima, Peru to a French and Peruvian mother and Argentine father.[1] She moved to Sydney, Australia. She dreamed about being an actress when she was 13 years old, and coincidentally attended the same school as Nicole Kidman; North Sydney Girls High School on Sydney's north shore. When she was 16 she became a salsa dancer which helped her get the money to finish education. Also "The Miss Latin America competition" earned her a much-needed $1,000 and the next thing she took a year off and went to Brazil. The things Kelley saw there prompted her to shun show business and come home to launch herself into a social science degree.
She volunteered with indigenous Australian youth in the inner-city suburb of Redfern before moving to Los Angeles and becoming an actress.
Career
Kelley began her acting career with the lead part in a WB pilot Mermaid, a spin-off of the hit television series Charmed starring Alyssa Milano, Rose McGowan and Holly Marie Combs. In 2006, she appeared in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift alongside Lucas Black and Bow Wow. She has also appeared in several commercials such as the one for "Schick Quattro". In 2007, she appeared in Loaded alongside Jesse Metcalfe.
