Talented multi- hyphenate Hailee Steinfeld may be young, but after a decade in show business she has proved herself as a force to be reckoned with.
When Hailee Steinfeld took to the stage at the MtV Music awards 2018 last month, it was natural placement for the 22-year-old. The actress, songstress and host for the night commandeered the stage with an unmistakable demeanour — the kind of striking presence embodied only by great showmen.
As Steinfeld’s mini dress, entirely encrusted in glitter caught the light — and along with it, the audience’s attention — her ineffable personality shone brighter, engaging viewers in her every word. On the same night, she returned onstage to perform her single “Back to life”. The earworm, which features in the soundtrack of what also happens to be the latest of her filmography: hollywood blockbuster “Bumblebee” — a spin-off of the “transformers” series.
Every bit a seasoned performer, Steinfeld enthralled the crowd as she manoeuvered the sprawling stage all while nailing dance choreography without missing a beat. Every move in her performance is a reminder of her immaculate talent, equally impactful when stripped down from a showy production to an unadulterated silver screen role.
At just 22 years old, the los angeles native counts more than a decade of experience in the entertainment business. Her accolades, too, go way beyond her years.
“I watched ‘Paper Moon’ when i was eight and started acting shortly after. My parents felt it was important for me to study so they challenged me to commit to classes for a year. We made a deal that if i was still passionate about acting at the end of the year, we could explore getting an agent,” says Steinfeld in an e-mail interview with t Singapore.
