Loren Lott<br />
Overcoming fears and chasing Dreams.<br />
by Mercedes Banward<br />
Bello<br />
Loren Lott, now starring as Ana Hamilton on CBS’s “The Young<br />
and the Restless,” has a versatile past filled with dedication<br />
and hard work leading up to this point in her career. She began<br />
auditioning for roles at only thirteen years old with the help of<br />
her manager in Hollywood before moving to Atlanta to attend<br />
Clark Atlanta University. Lott successfully earned a Bachelor<br />
of Arts degree in Mass Media Arts while still pursuing acting,<br />
landing roles in television shows such as “Powers” and “Greenleaf”while<br />
in Atlanta. Lott’s talent and success go beyond acting<br />
and education, extending to the musical realm as well. She<br />
competed in Season 14 of “American Idol” and secured a spot<br />
in the top 16 of the season. This experience on “American Idol”<br />
segued her career in theatre, where she starred as Ti Moune on<br />
Broadway’s “Once on This Island” and landed a role as Gladys<br />
Night in “Motown the Musical,” understudying none other than<br />
Diana Ross. <strong>BELLO</strong> got the chance to chat with Loren and ask<br />
her a few questions about her past projects, future goals, and<br />
successful career.<br />
