Q&A with actor Hannah Victoria Franklin

PhotoSister: When you were young, did you imagine you would be on this particular journey in life? Why or why not?
Hannah Victoria Franklin: I thought I would be the queen of Sweden.  Plan B: Olympic Gymnast.  Plan C:  Olympic Water Polo Player.  Didn’t happen.  Now I dream about flamin hot cheetos and super hot dudes.

PS: Who or what inspires you the most in your personal life?  And in your professional life?
HVF: My friends keep me going day and night.   Charlize Theron makes me wanna be famous and Marya Sea Kaminski makes my body tingle.

PS: What is the one thing you splurge on for yourself?
HVF: I splurge.  On everything.  To a fault.  It’s a problem.  If I shouldn’t have it, I want it.  And if I want it, best believe, I gotta have it.
