PAULA TAYLOR AT A GLANCE
Paula has always been on the go. Shortly after her birth in Thailand, she and her parents moved to Perth, Australia, where she grew up. For many years, from the time she was a young girl, she helped her mother in the family restaurant almost every day, earning some allowance by scrubbing tables and doing other menial tasks. While holidaying in Bangkok, when twelve years old, her normal life started to change, when she was spotted by a modeling agency and asked if she would be interested in doing some modeling. After much deliberation and advice, she accepted the offer.
 
Thereafter, she often flew to Bangkok, during her school breaks in Australia, to make commercials, music videos and undertake modeling were she considered it as her summer job back then. And as soon as she finished high school, she was finally able to concentrate full time on her assignments, often staying in countries like Hong Kong, Singapore and The Philippines, in order to undertake more serious projects.
In 2001, after finally settling in Bangkok. She became entrenched in the world of movies, TV dramas, hosting and fashion events. From an unknown to being a starlet, Paula finally achieved local recognition when she starred in a Thai romantic-comedy film, Sexphone and The Lonely Wave, in 2003.
   
 
After years of working non-stop in the glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry, she became one of the most recognizable faces in Thailand, an accomplished VJ for Channel V, a presenter for renowned brands like Lays and Canon, not to mention that she has graced the covers of almost all the Thailand’s top fashion magazines.
Now, after having her comfort zone in Thailand, as expected, Paula keeps on moving to find new challenges. She is finally able to continue working abroad, being active in fashion scenes and other related projects around Asia. More From>
