Katie Stevens is a multifaceted and dynamic young actress who has rapidly solidified her position as one of the most in-demand and energetic young talents in Hollywood. She takes center stage as a lead cast member in Freeform's hit television series "The Bold Type," which delves into the extraordinary lives and romantic entanglements of those responsible for the fictional global women's magazine, Scarlet. The show, which premiered to widespread critical acclaim during the summer of 2017, is loosely inspired by the life and career of Joanna Coles, who currently serves as the chief content officer at Hearst Magazines and previously held the position of editor-in-chief at Cosmopolitan Magazine.
Katie's journey in the world of entertainment began at the tender age of three, when she started performing and singing. Her passion and natural talent eventually led her to audition for the iconic reality television show "American Idol." In August 2009, Katie auditioned for "American Idol" in Boston, Massachusetts, where she mesmerized the judges with her powerful rendition of "At Last." Impressed by her talent, all four judges, including guest judge Victoria Beckham, advanced her to the Hollywood round. At the Boston audition, Judge Kara DioGuardi praised Katie as one of the most talented 16-year-old singers she had ever had the pleasure of witnessing.
Today, Katie divides her time between her residences in Los Angeles and Nashville, where she continues to pursue her passion for acting and music.
