Brie Larson (born Brianne Sidonie Desaulniers on October 1, 1989) is an American actress and pop/rock singer.
Larson was born in Sacramento, California, and decided to be an actress when she was six years old and was one of the youngest students of the American Conservatory Theater. She moved to Los Angeles in 1998, right before her 9th birthday and met lots of agents, but decided to go with Cindy Osbrink, who she has been with for six years. Larson's first job was doing sketches on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and soon after, was cast in two back-to-back television series, Schimmel which was announced but never aired, because right before filming, Robert Schimmel was diagnosed with cancer. After being "on hold" for ten months, Fox cancelled the show.
Three weeks later she auditioned for a new show on the WB, which at the time was called "In Your Dreams", Larson got the part of Emily (the youngest daughter to Bob Saget's character) and the show was picked up for the 2001-2002 fall season and was renamed "Raising Dad". The show, however, was cancelled late into the season, so she was not able to audition for a new series until next pilot season. Larson was also cast in the pilot for the ABC sitcom, "Hope and Faith", but she and some of the other cast were dropped.
In July 2004, she co-starred with a large cast of teen actors in the film Sleepover, playing the vicious popular girl Liz. Larson's latest role is in the film Hoot, opposite Logan Lerman and Cody Linley. The film opened on May 5, 2006.
After work in music projects and record some tracks, like "Not A Freak" and "Go, Goodbye" in the fall 2003, Michael Binikos produced her demo that got Larson signed to Tommy Mottola and Casablanca Records, including "Invisible Girl", which Larson had written when she was only 12.
In late 2004, her first single, "She Said", was announced and went to radio in January 2005. The video for the song was filmed on January 9, 2005 and was featured on MTV's Total Request Live as a PreRL on April 4th. The song debuted at #71 on Billboard's Hot 100 Single Sale in February 4, 2005 and at #30 on Radio Disney in March.
In the summer of 2005, Larson toured with Hollywood recording artist Jesse McCartney, and made a concert at KISS FM for more than 20,000 people. Towards the end of the summer, Larson also joined the Teen People's Rock'n'Shop Tour. She later released a DVD, called "Finally Out Of P.E. - The DVD" and "Whatever" was announced to be her intended second single, but was canceled.
Larson released a follow-up single, "Life After You". The song debuted on AOL's Kids Online on June 27th. She also sings the end credit track in the movie "Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus". A music video featuring Larson performing the song appears as a bonus feature on the movie's DVD. Her debut LP, "Finally Out Of P.E.", was released on October 18th, which has sold 5,500 copies in United States.
In 2006, Larson wrote and produced new music, including a song in "Hoot" OST, "Coming Around". Her sophomore studio album is released by Universal Records at some point in the fall 2006. There are also some unconfirmed tracks called "Paste on Paste", "Superstision", "Dear Universe" and an Indigo Girls cover of their song, "Closer To Fine".
