Profile of Debbie Rochon on Famous Like Me

Canadian b-movie actress Debbie Rochon was born on November 3, 1968 in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Biography

Debbie had a very troubled childhood and, after years of abuse, turned to acting as an escape. She began her film career at the age of thirteen in Ladies and Gentlemen: The Fabulous Stains! starring Diane Lane. At that point, she realized that acting was going to be her life. By age seventeen, she had saved up enough money to move to New York City. Early on, Rochon worked with numerous off-off Broadway theater companies, performing in over 25 stage productions. She garnered her first printed review in Backstage which read: "Debbie Rochon acquitted her self well as the cocaloony bird in Tennessee Williams’ The Gnadiges Fraulein."

Feeling like she had gone as far as she could on the stage, Rochon focused on the cinema and has worked on over one hundred independent features since. The Hubcap Awards founder Joe Bob Briggs crowned Rochon runner-up Best Actress of the year in 1994 for her work on the Canadian lensed Abducted II: The Reunion. In 1995 she was singled out for her work as the conniving television producer in Broadcast Bombshells winning her the prestigious Barbarella Award.

She appeared in a commercial for Gillette directed by Pedro Almodovar and was a featured guest player on Fox’s New York Undercover. In 2002 Rochon was crowned Scream Queen of the Decade (1990 - present) by the horror genre publication Draculina magazine, based on reader voting. She also received Best Psychette Award 2002 (best female psycho in a movie) for her work in American Nightmare.

While filming The Legend of Crazy George in 2002, Rochon suffered a very serious on-set injury. A machete nearly severed several of Rochon's fingers, slashing them to the bone. After recuperating, she went back to the industry and has been going strong ever since.

Rochon still resides in New York City and appears in upwards of ten independent horror and sleaze films every year.
