Alyson Hannigan
Alyson Hannigan is probably most well known for her role as Willow in Buffy the Vampire Slayer (all hail Joss Whedon for creating this brilliant show which is now ENDING!), but Alyson was on your TV set long before, yes folks that's right, she was a kid actor! Alyson was born in Washington DC and started her acting career in Atlanta at the age of four where she did commercials for companies like McDonald's and products such as that American favorite (being Australian myself I don't get the fascination) Oreo Cookies. At the age of 11 Aly and her mum moved to LA in the hopes of getting more acting opportunities. In 1988 Alyson scored her first big role in the movie My Stepmother is an Alien, when she was 13 ( I remember this movie!). Also featuring in this film was Seth Green who later played on Buffy the Vampire Slayer as well, small world aint it? Alyson guest stared in TV shows like Rosanne, Picket Fences and Touched by an Angel before landing her big role as Willow Rosenburg on Buffy in 1997. Aly was with the show until the very end of its seventh season, going from super-geek to super-witch in this hit TV show. Alyson has also stared in other movies during her time on Buffy, American Pie being the most prominent.
