Kahshanna Evans
- Actress
- Additional Crew
Being a fan of over-the-top comedy and attracted to explosive drama,
Kahshanna Evans has done her share of contrary roles. A Southern
California native, Kahshanna's modeling career led her to the bright
lights of New York, where she began to study acting. Kahshanna got her
feet wet on the set of Ben Stiller's
Zoolander (2001). Soon after that she
enjoyed the sweet, side-splitting pleasure of appearing on
Le spectacle de Chris Rock (1997)
as Young Robin. Her role as the terminally ill assault victim Vanessa
on
New York - Unité spéciale (1999)
gave her a chance to work alongside
Christopher Meloni and
Stephanie March. The William
Esper graduate notes that she was treated well on both projects and is
definitely a fan of New York City.
Kahshanna returned to Los Angeles and in no time her love of humor led to a cameo in_ Epic Movie (2007)_ as a high school-aged "Storm" at Mutant High ("Epic Movie" grossed $20 million on its opening weekend in January 2007), directed by Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg, also the directors of Scary Movie (2000) and Sexy Movie (2006). Kahshanna went on to her first lead role for a feature film as Natasha in the indie political comedy The Wrong Hands (2010).
Kahshanna writes from true-life experience and hopes to empower and inspire her supporters in a short film she wrote entitled "Amani", an exploration of the ultimate empowerment confronting topics of crimes against children, the corruption of uniformed officials we look to for protection and freedom. You can take this California girl out of New York, but you can't take New York out of this California girl.
