Tammy Felice

Tammy Felice, born October 3, 1980, out of Jeannette, Pennsylvania—yeah, that’s a tiny city with a big heart—has this vibe that sorta sneaks up on you. She’s not your everyday Hollywood staple, but man, she’s got a presence you don’t forget. You might’ve caught her in “Live Fast, Die Young” back in 2008, a flick that, honestly, doesn’t shy away from the wild side. It’s one of those movies where you feel like you’re holding your breath half the time, just waiting for someone to completely lose it. Tammy slides right in, blending raw energy with this down-to-earth grit. Fast forward a few years, and she’s in “The Vanquisher” (2011). Now, this one’s a bit different—think action with a twist, not just explosions for the sake of blowing stuff up. Tammy’s role? Not your classic damsel, not even close. She’s got that tough-as-nails thing going, like she’s been through the wringer and came out swinging. There’s some real depth here, which is rare for roles like this, honestly. Don’t sleep on “Hip-Hop Headstrong” (2010) either. It’s got its own flavor, dipping into the music scene, and Tammy manages to fit right in, even if she’s not dropping beats herself. She’s got this way of making her characters believable, never over the top, just real enough that you buy into the whole story. If you’re the type who likes spotting under-the-radar talent before everyone else jumps on the bandwagon, Tammy Felice should be on your radar.
