My Take
Lauren Tsai is one of those people who makes you feel slightly inadequate in the best possible way — she's a runway model, a working actress, and a genuinely skilled illustrator and comics artist, all before her mid-twenties. Growing up in Wellesley, Massachusetts and standing 174 cm tall, she has the kind of presence that gets you noticed fast, and that's exactly what happened when she appeared on Terrace House: Aloha State in 2016 — that Netflix and Fuji TV reality show that made half the world briefly obsessed with quiet Japanese apartment drama. But what really sets Lauren apart from the usual model-turned-actress pipeline is that she actually draws. Like, really draws — creating illustrations with a distinctive, ethereal quality that feels completely her own. She's not borrowing someone else's aesthetic; she has her own world inside her head, and she keeps finding new ways to let it out.
Overview
Lauren Tsai (born February 11, 1998) is an American actress and illustrator. She first became known to audiences in 2016 for her appearance in the Fuji TV and Netflix series Terrace House: Aloha State.
