    • Professionally, Japan was a major break. Gina became the face of Shiseido cosmetics and appeared on upwards of twenty magazine covers. But modeling was never Gina's passion.

    • At the age of fifteen, Gina was scouted by a modeling agency and shipped to Japan. Embracing the move with both hands, Gina schooled herself on the culture and language and the country quickly became her second home.
    • Her first love was dance. Whether ballet, tap, modern, or musical theatre, Gina was immersed in dance performance. As the classical ballet training developed her unrelenting work ethic, it wasn't long before Gina's love of performance began to shape itself into something resembling a career.
    • Her first performance took place at a figure skating exhibition at age five. She has been at home on center stage ever since. As a precocious and outgoing child Gina performed in all her school plays and talent shows.

    gina holdenGina Holden is a Canadian actress who is currently starring in one TV show still in production. She starred as Dale Arden on the now canceled Flash Gordon series, and as Coreen Fennel on Blood Ties which is currently in its second season on Lifetime. Holden was born in the small town of Smithers, British Columbia. While growing up, Gina and her family moved around frequently. And in every place they settled in, she joined community groups, school plays, and talent shows in order to follow her passion for acting. Her first love was dance, immersing herself in ballet, tap, modern dance, and musical theater.

    It was through this passion that she developed her discipline and work ethic – something that would be of value when she pursued a career in acting. When she was fifteen years old, Gina was discovered by a modeling agency which sent her to Japan. She then fervently studied the Japanese culture and language and treated the country as her second home. Appearing in magazines and becoming the face of Shiseido cosmetics, Gina used her modeling career as a stepping stone to pursue bigger dreams in the entertainment industry. She has since appeared in several films and television shows in Canada and the US.
