By age 17 Angel was working on coming out with a consignment demo and had stores offering to place and sell her cd’s and posters. However, Angel’s mother insisted she wait and focus on school. Angel is also known for her creativity, extreme versatilely and writing, and wrote 90% of her own lyrics and songs and monologues .
By the age of 17 Angel had a private choreographer and a vocal coach and Manager. Angel has been singing and acting for fun since grade school and took Music on seriously in Middle School/Jr. high by joining the school choir and performing in several big musical productions. Angel took drama on seriously in high school completing 4years of academic theatrical and drama classes, as well as being part of her church choir, cheerleading and also coaching cheerleading for jr. youth community cheer. Later her senior year Angel played lead Missy (the winner of the pageant) in her school play ‘She’s Got The Look’ . Sang as one of the 3 leads in her church band and began song writing and a musical /dance group and was managed by her senior year. Group of 3 female vocalist titled “Angels”. “We spent every lunch period and after school writing music, practicing, and more practicing.” “We even posted signs at the local super market when we were auditioning for a third group member.” After High school Angel attended college and attended Television and Film school to pursue her career and future in Acting as well as much more in the Entertainment Industry. Angel was working her first job babysitting kids in her church when she was in jr. high and also working at a retail and grocery store at 15. One day at work at the grocery store when Angel was 17 two guys walked in and purchased a magazine, “I will never forget that magazine” She says “It was Makes and Models and I saw the two most beautiful young women I had ever seen, from that moment on I was determined to be in a magazine, that magazine.” After doing more research coincidentally the editor was based out of Angel’s Hometown , she contacted the Magazine and they booked her for the job and later released the Magazine which she was centerfold and cover model. Angel was the first Makes and Models, Model that got to shoot with the magazine owner’s prized “Makes & Model Show Car”. Angel was also the youngest of her friends and first to excel in modeling. From then on Angel was their main spokes model and went to appear on multiple covers and ads for them. Including on the cover of the top 50 models.
In Angel’s first editorial and magazine cover. Angel was interviewed and the questionnaire was put into the magazine and Makes and Models editor wrote the article saying how angel looked a lot like Britney Spears. They feature a entire article about this in the magazine she was in. It wasn’t the first time Monroe heard this. She says she remembers going to state fairs and Las Vegas and people yelling out “Britney, Britney” Angel Found it very flattering. Soon Angel picked up a gig in Fla performing in arena’s and expos as a paid Britney imitator. The shows were all professionally set up and choreographed. Angel would memorize Britney song’s and sing and dance. She had the exact costumes Britney had and everything.
This wasn’t enough for Angel she wanted to have a name of her own. So after shooting her first Magazine cover and layout. Being one of the most sold Makes & Models Magazine’s ever. The owner decided to bring her to all the car shows, expos, conventions, and so on to do autograph signing’s and pictures for fans. Angel thought to herself wait a minute, I could perform here. Anxious and excited she pitched the idea to Owner of the Magazine. And he thought long and hard for a few seconds, and replied “Sure why not?!” And so Angel was so eager to begin. She got all the girls she knew who took dance at the local dance studio with her. She hired a private choreographer to choreograph her shows and wrote music with other song writers. It was not long before Angel Monroe’s dreams were coming true. She began performing and practicing with the girls and gave her group the name “Sweet Sensations” this was perfect for her, since she had all the publicity she needed right there being published in the magazines. Angel had costumes and lots of fans come out and watch and take pictures and video etc. Angel was so excited, upon meeting her best friend Marcus he immediately took here to producers who had a studio and said Angel should start to record. The guys came up with beats for Angel to listen to and decide which ones for her song. Angel felt it wasn’t the right quality to put out for her and could tarnish her. She wanted to wait till she met the right people and had faith she would. Still performing she got an offer from HONDA to be the face of the Honda Element new Suv that was about to release. Angel accepted the deal and was the national face of Honda Element. Then the local radio station in Tampa, Fl 98.7 picked her up to do some published modeling for the radio station. And she took that job. At 18 years old Angel was growing and moving fast into her love for the arts and entertainment. Angel was offered multiple magazines spreads and covers after this. And took the opportunity.
Angel was walking through the mall at 18 and a Talent Agent approached her and offered to meet with them for their Fashion week, this actually happened to her 3 times walking through the mall at 17 and Angel’s mother said no that she would be the one managing her from now on. At 18 when this happened again Angel took the offer and attended the fashion week and met lots of well known music producers Lou Pearlman being one she always loved, and many Big time Agents Ny Models,La Models,Elite,Bmg, Wilhelmina to name a few were there. Angel started doing petite run way shows. Which means runway for models under 5’9. At her first run way show she was signed with BMG Models for their Chicago and Orlando division as well as Edge Models in Atlanta. With continued success Angel Began traveling and later quit her jobs so she could model full time.
Angel always knew she would live in California. At 19 after one year of much success Modeling in several National Magazines, Hawaiian Tropic Pageants and Acting, Singing ,Dancing in her hometown she decided it was time to look for a place in Los Angeles, California. A few weeks later her and her good friend Ashley Shank PKA Ashley Gellar (whom she met during Hawaiian Tropics) told her about a Fitness Magazine ,(I believe called Ms. Fitness or fit beauties) that wanted Angel and Ashley to shoot for their centerfold. Angel and Ashely flew to L.A. and stayed in the Mondrian Hotel and received a whole wardrobe from “everything but water” for the shoot. Angel and Ashely ended up pigging out before their shoot, all the hard work caught up to them. Still they shot in a National Fitness Magazine. You can find Ms. Fitness and Fit & Beautiful magazine at any 7’11, grocery stores, super markets , etc. After doing several magazines and flying to LA to work Angel knew that this was all meant to be, seeing and hearing sign after sign. From Agents, Magazines, even Psychics. It all came natural. She was always told by Industry Professionals she had a great look and was an amazing actress.
Angel found her place in Los Angeles and had to finish some prior obligations and classes in her home town. So her place sat empty for some time. Finally she was moving. Her car was shipped her furniture was shipped and what seemed like her whole life. Her Best Friend and trainer Krissi couldn’t watch her go, so came with her to LA, and she was off to the West Coast. Angel decided to move to Wilshire the part of LA that looks like New York City with all the high rise condominiums. She wanted a change from the Beach she grew up on and knew as home. Her first night she was in tears looking out the window at the loud cars and high buildings and no more living on the water she was in a high rise with a view of the city not beach unlike her home beach town of Florida. Cars going by loudly 24hours a day and living in a building with indoor elevators was unheard of to this former beach girl. Krissi missed her family and boyfriend and tried to find a job and couldn’t handle LA’s fast pace , so she went back home. Now Angel has an extra room empty and is all alone. Going out and meeting new people was hard being under 21. So Angel was organized and turn what was krissi’s room into her office. She had no idea where to start and was getting lost everywhere. So she hired an assistant and joined acting classes and later enrolled in one of the most notable Acting Institutes: the Lee Strasberg Film & Theatre Institute. Marcus, Angel’s best friend had an opportunity to meet a A & R executive from Capital Records. Marcus showed him the tape of Angel performing and Capital said “she has an excellent look and voice and she can dance, let’s get a demo of her. ” Angel was excited to hear this, but young, green , and naive… Angel ultimately made the regretful decision to put off the demo process. Angel focused on Acting. Singing was Angel’s number 1 passion. The stress of finding the perfect producer to make that demo and auditioning for movies and television was all so new to her in this new huge city of L.A. where she resided all alone. No family or friends from home, except her best friend Marcus. At 20years old Monroe was asked to audition for a television show Fight for Fame For E! Entertainment. Still green, but Angel was slowly finding her way. She booked the television show, which was her first ever national television episode. Later aired on her birthday June 26! Also the show featured Angel performing the monologue she wrote. Angel was reaching new heights in the film and television industry fast. Angel continued to study voice and dance as well as the arts of acting. On E! Entertainment’s “Fight for Fame” Angel was told once again she looked like Britney Spears and to do a little imitation of her for the network while filming. Because of copyrights she couldn’t sing like she did for the network before filming but she had a chance to dance a little freestyle bit. Angel had caught the eye of Playboy and respectfully turned that offer down. She wasn’t looking for that type of work. And wanted to stay true to her passion for the arts. Angel audition for American Idol Corey Clark for his music video “Outta of Control” Angel was asked to freestyle dance on the spot she did, and out of the thousands of talent that auditioned for the lead role in Corey Clark’s music video Angel landed the job.
Next Angel was seen dancing it up on Mtv now in Corey Clark’s video which she gained much recognition and publicity. Angel auditioned for another tv show about actors trying to make it in Hollywood called “Hellbent for Hollywood” “One of the most intense auditions.” She recalls. “There was like thousands of actors brought in for this audition, they didn’t even tell you what you were going to have to do either…when I got in the room, there was a panel of judges like on American Idol.” “There was these big bright ‘set’ lights and I had to sit in a chair and there was like 5 huge cameras on me.” They asked Miss Monroe “So what do you bring to the table besides acting?” Angel replies “well I can RAP!” So they put her to the test “Let’s hear it!” they said. Angel began to rap freestyle and blew their socks off. “They were just jaw dropped, that I can actually rap LOL!” and the ending you ask? Angel got the job!
Booking more and more Angel then tried out for her first ever feature film! “American Asian” Release title “Great American Dream”. Auditions were more intense than ever before. Angel had to sing in the film since the film role was for the part of an inspiring singer. She also had to know how to play softball/baseball and most importantly act. “During call backs it was so intense, Roger is really a perfectionist. I basically had to memorize the entire script, and had to attend call back after call back.” In the end Angel knew it was meant to be as she booked not only the first feature film she had ever tried out for or did. But she also booked the starring role! Monroe took every day on set very serious and it was all about perfecting her craft. The end results? “Amazing coming soon!”

Angel started to book film after film she went on, after that. As well as various print projects and television projects.
