ONE ON ONE…TARYN MANNING
Test User • 01.25.2010 • ONE ON ONE • 2 COMMENTS

By: Alex Catarinella

Taryn Manning is a survivor by Hollywood standards. She’s worked and chilled with all the superstars, but has yet to lose her mind on TMZ or appear on Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab. She’s been famous for nearly a decade, with her first major role alongside Kirsten Dunst in 2001’s Crazy/Beautiful, and later portraying Brit Brit’s preggers BFF in Crossroads, Eminem’s crazy ex in 8 Mile, and her breakout role as the prostitute with those killer Bo Derek dreads to Terrance Howard in Hustle & Flow–AND she’s an indie darling. Now that’s what you call a resume. But wait! She’s also managed to squeeze into her schedule being the front-woman of electro pop, brother/sister duo Boomkat (I still die for “Wasting My Time” featured on the 8 Mile soundtrack), launching a successful clothing line (Born Uniqorn) and DJing around the country. I recently chatted with Taryn, who was fighting a cold that she just can’t shake while catching up on scripts and prepping for upcoming DJ gigs including Sundance. Taryn told me she keeps it together with regular visits with an energy healer (Can I get one of those?), she’s consistently on her grind (the recession even affects celebrities), and she elaborated on the dark Hollywood (and universal) struggles including her thoughts on the late and lovely Brittany Murphy. I really dig this unaffected, super talented and genuine woman (hello–one of her dream roles is ROLLER GIRL in Boogie Nights!), and I live for these exclusive gorgeous photos. Read on …
