Andrea Lewis

Andrea Desiree Lewis (born August 15, 1985 in Pickering, Ontario) is a Canadian born actress best known for her portrayal of Hazel Aden on the teen drama Degrassi: The Next Generation. On September 20 2005, her debut album, "Float Away" was released in Canada only. One of her biggest breaks in acting came in 2002, when she got the opportunity to play Hilary Duff's best friend in the made for television movie Cadet Kelly, where she also acted alongside Christy Carlson Romano. This movie became a regular feature on American cable channel Disney. She played "Carla Hall" in the movie. "Carla Hall" was a military school cadet who would not break school rules until she met "Kelly", played by Duff. What has been, so far, arguably her biggest break in the entertainment business, however, came also in 2002, when she began to play "Hazel Aden" in Degrassi: The Next Generation. Degrassi: The Next Generation followed in the steps of six other shows branded with the Degrassi name (dating back to 1979) in becoming a major hit across Canada, and Lewis reached fame, at least among teenaged television viewers. In 2002, Degrassi: The Next Generation began to be shown on Nickelodeon's The N, a network geared towards more mature adolescent audiences, and Lewis began to become known in the United States as well.
