Kate Kelton

Kate Kelton's unforgettable turn in cult-classic, Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle (2004), cemented her love of the craft after her print and commercials beginnings in Toronto, Canada. She was the world's first non-blond "Tic Tac Girl", in an enormously popular campaign that aired for almost a decade. Kelton made her big-screen debut at the Toronto International Film Festival, in a brief cameo in Oscar-nominated director Deepa Mehta's, The Republic of Love (2000). Alongside several indie films and TV guest spots, it was Shaggy's hit music video for, "It Wasn't Me", that first exposed her to the global audience Tic Tac would later reach. She was born in Bamberg, Germany, and grew up traveling across Europe with her artist mother. By the age of 7, they had moved to Canada, and after attending performing arts high school, Etobicoke School of the Arts, she went on to study Film at Ryerson Polytechnic University. Kelton minored in philosophy and psychology, graduating with honors and a Bachelor of Applied Arts degree. Besides exhibiting her artwork internationally, Kelton was also published as a contributing author in 'Making It in High Heels: Inspiring Stories by Women for Women of All Ages' (BurmanBooks Inc.).
