Regina Dowling credits her Oklahoma upbringing for helping make her successful. Whether she’s on stage or in front of a camera, she comes across as sincere and genuine. And it’s no act.
“It’s a testament to my grandparents who raised me,” she said. “You’re getting genuine me. I don’t fluff anything.”
I wrote a column about Dowling in today’s Sunday Life. She went to Bishop McGuiness High School and Oklahoma city University, where she became friends with actress Kristin Chenoweth.
With a degree in entertainment and appearances on daytime dramas, Dowling really wanted to appear in films. That’s what took her to Los Angeles. She was a featured extra in “Town and Country” with Warren Beatty.
Hosting opportunities came calling and she discovered she liked being in front of the camera. Being Regina Dowling. She launched Glamour24-7.com, a site where she talks about fashion and beauty, of course, but glamour in a much broader sense.
She does love fashion and beauty, though. After years of working as an actress and being around stylists and artists, she decided to pass along some of what she’s learned. She also shares products she likes or discovers.
Dowling tapes her videos in her home. She sets up the camera, and also produces the Web site and edits it. She has an assistant and videographer with her when she covers events, such as the pre-Emmy party for Women in Films. She hopes to do more similar events and red carpet coverage.
Dowling, 41, is married with three furry kids — dogs. She would love to have her own televsion show, a show that’s geared for women and the growth of women. She can already envision a show where she can talk about anything women want to talk about.
Meanwhile, she’s beefing up Glamour24-7.com to include everything from design and beauty to fashion and real life.
Perhaps most important is the message. She wants people to know the importance of doing something special for yourself. “But it’s equally important to remember to do something for somebody else, whether they know about it or not,” she said. “If we all do that, it’s a better place.”
