Vanessa Evigan Meets World

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

It’s time to turn down the Sublime and check out this week’s interview with the only BMW guest star who knew Michael Jacobs AND Danielle before being cast. 

Vanessa Evigan played the Rhinoplasty healed Kimberly in "If You Can't Be with the One You Love...,” but it was her time as an 8-year-old background actor, and her role as Middle School “buddy,” that would connect her to the show forever. 

Vanessa delves deep into her time as a child actor and the growth she’s experienced since, and wonders if she’d let her kids have the same journey.

Plus, hear stories from her star studded resumé, including a weird habit she learned from co-star Ben Affleck, on an all-new Pod Meets World!
