Charisma Carpenter first made her television debut with a guest spot on Baywatch, before receiving a call from legendary producer Aaron Spelling and subsequently being cast on the primetime soap opera, Malibu Shores. But her big break — and the one that would forever change the trajectory of her life — came shortly thereafter when she was cast as Cordelia Chase on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a role she would portray for three seasons before migrating to its spin-off series, Angel, and continuing on for four more seasons. In total, Carpenter portrayed Cordelia in 140 episodes across both franchises. The former series has been ranked by Time, The Hollywood Reporter, TV Guide, Rolling Stone and Entertainment Weekly amongst its lists of greatest television series’ of all time.
Carpenter went on to recur on Charmed as the demon Kyra and on Veronica Mars as gold digging stepmother Kendall Casablanacas as well as Greek and, most recently, CW’s Pandora. While working as a series regular on ABC Family’s The Lying Game, Carpenter subsequently served as host and producer of Investigation Discovery’s Surviving Evil, a series featuring survivors who fought back against their attackers. Additional guest starring roles include CSI, Burn Notice, Supernatural, Blue Bloods, Sons of Anarchy, Scream Queens, Chicago, P.D., Lucifer and 9-1-1.
Carpenter has also segued into movies, with a supporting role as Lacey in The Expendables and its sequel, The Expendables 2, as well as roles in over 12 made for television movies for Lifetime, Syfy and more.
Offscreen, Carpenter is the proud founder of MyCon, a platform intended to lift the spirits of socially isolated fans throughout the pandemic by connecting them with their favorite actors. Additionally, she works closely with the Thirst Project, an international water charity bringing safe, clean drinking water to the most vulnerable people around the world, as well as The Ronan Thompson Foundation, which is dedicated to researching pediatric cancer. In addition to her first love, that of a devoted mother, Carpenter spends much of her time working as a philanthropist, political activist and social justice advocate. So passionate about these causes, she recently completed a course on administrative justice.
MyConLive offers a vaierty of things. My favorite would have to be the meet and greet. For someone who has social anxiety, I have to say this experience was perfect. I love that you're not wasting all this money for two minutes, and all you can gather up is a "hi". I love that you have time to be nervous but still get comfortable enough for a real conversation. Charisma is truly excited to learn about you. She likes to chat, so it's not a hard start, or any type of awkward silence. What I like about the virtual is that you don't have loud noises and you are'nt being rushed, and it's just the two of you. I highly recommend doing at least one.
With MyConLive there is enough time to actually have a calm conversation that is also reasonable priced. There is no pressure with this M&G, it is truly a M&G for the fans. I highly recommend MyConLive as it is an experience you won't forget!
Charisma has been such an inspiration to me, whether through her incredible performance as Cordelia on Buffy and Anglel, her philantrophic efforts, or her positive impact on the world. Meeting her in real life was like a dream come true.
I have booked a couple of meet and greets and had a shout out message. I can honestly say what a wonderful experience it is, so much more personal. Charisma makes you feel at ease.
Thank you for making this platform Charisma. Xoxo
I was expecting a quick chat to check in with Charisma and see how she's been and we ended up having a such a great conversation, next thing I knew we gone well over our 10 minutes. We both shared some deeply personal things that I think makes you realize we are all just humans at the end of the day. She was so kind and really takes an interest in what's going on in your life. I definitely recommend!
Never meet (and greet) your heroes unless they are Charisma Carpenter! I’ll cut to the Chase…
Thanks to the powers that be (and my partner), MyCon has afforded me the best online experience that money can buy. It doesn’t cost the Earth (or even Sunnydale or LA for that matter), and it ain’t no cameo either! For ten whole minutes, I was mesmerised and the conversation flowed so effortlessly. It didn’t feel rushed at all, just personal and genuine. A beautiful safe space without any of the hustle and bustle of ‘in person’ conventions. CC was everything Anya could wish for and so much more. She’s a true angel with a soul to die for! This memory will slay with you forever, and leave you thirsty for more!
