To know Melissa is to know Heaven. Whether it's a lengthy discourse on the economic impact of rising oil prices on emerging nations or discussing the latest episode of "Glee", this redhead's intellect is matched only by her humility and ridiculously good looks.

A natural performer, Melissa discovered her love of the stage at the tender age of 5, when she landed the starring role in her kindergarten Christmas pageant. After sending the crowd into fits of laughter by entering from the wrong side of the stage, she knew she had found her passion, and thus, an ingenue was born.

After a brief hiatus from the spotlight (thanks to modern-day inconveniences like rent, car payments, and a day job) this Star is back and ready for her pageant debut. So if you like to win, go ahead and donate to the cause, because this could be the moment that defines your life.
