Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 3, 2006 -- Valery Ortiz, who stars as “Madison Duarte” on the original teen drama South of Nowhere, will appear for a live visit with fans today at 4PM (PST)/7PM (EST), at HABBO, one of the world’s largest and hottest on-line destinations for teenagers. South of Nowhere has just entered its second season on The N, the nighttime network for teens, a programming arm of MTV Networks. The interview will be broadcast over Habbo’s exclusive Internet Radio Stream, Bobba Music, hosted by Jackie the DJ (www.bobbamusic.com).

Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Valery was raised in Orlando, Florida. Always encouraged to express her creative spirit, she attended the prestigious Dr. Phillips High School, the visual and performing arts magnet for artistically talented students in Orange County, Florida. Valery’s first big break came hosting the “anything goes” kids show SPLAT! on Nickelodeon. After the show wrapped, Valery moved to Los Angeles and landed a hosting gig on the popular music show LA TV LIVE. Within months, producers tapped her for the role of SOUTH OF NOWHERE’s “Madison.”
Valery also appeared this year opposite Alyson Hannigan, Carmen Electra and Jennifer Coolidge as “Jello” (a spoof of Jennifer Lopez’ turn in THE WEDDING PLANNER) in Twentieth Century Fox’s hit film DATE MOVIE.
Season Two of SOUTH OF NOWHERE currently airs Friday’s on The N at 9:00PM/ET.
