Chelsea MacLaren is a New York based actor and model who has been singing since she came out of the womb along with the rest of her family; she is the eldest of four siblings. Writing came a little later but really developed in college and now it is a daily ritual she enjoys and needs; her journal and ball point pen are always within reach. Recently, MacLaren wrapped short film “Blue Horizon” written and directed by filmmaker and friend Tom Beaver, all shot remotely during quarantine. One critic described her performance as “…simply incredible. Her entire performance is electric.” The film is currently running the festival circuit and has been accepted into its first one - the Kansas City FilmFest International. And much to Chelsea’s delight, she is in pre-production for short film "ELLIPSES" she wrote and will star in, directed by one of her favorite people and collaborators Samantha Light. Her favorite roles (so far) include Alice from Closer and Vanda Jordan from Venus in Fur.

Modeling for Chelsea is about showing women that are tall and curvy and big in body and spirit that they are beautiful and important to be seen in the fashion world. Representation matters.

Chelsea is always humming. The first to break out dancing when one of her favorite songs comes on. She finds strength and peace in writing and noodling on the piano. Escaping into books and plays along with drinking coffee are imperative for daily survival and joy. And she might have a teeny tiny shoe obsession... more like a major shoe obsession! But, Chelsea prides herself in being able to run pretty dang fast in four-inch heels.
