“I grew up watching MTV that was my addiction”, remembers
Sharon whose childhood role models entertainers were mostly big singers like:
Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Cyndi Lauper, Annie Lennox, George Michael and
Prince… I still love them to bits but I was also obsessed with Marilyn Monroe
for a while to the point that I watched all of her films on repeat… Such a
beauty!… Ever since I can remember myself, I have always been fascinated with
performing, entertaining and expressing myself… I think I started acting and
singing, unofficially in prime school. But I’ve been taking classes in both
ever since. you can never learn enough. It’s a craft that needs constant
practicing”.

Carma Sharon acting career took her from Israel, to London, India,
the US, then Australia. “I love traveling!”, she says. “I traveled the world
for two years! it’s amazing how much you can learn by doing so. I strongly
recommend traveling to every human. But that beside the point, I pretty much
worked as a performer in all of these countries. Yet my favorite place now is
Australia. Sydney is my home now. There are challenges everywhere, that’s what
makes life exciting… I would really also love to visit Egypt! such a
fascinating culture, art and history.”

According to Carma: Is it fine for an artist to appear
between theatre and television without affecting his/her stardom in cinema
because times have changed. About agents: “It’s important to have an agent in
this industry, and I’m blessed to have a great one. But I’m also very active
and like to pursue the work myself, connect with others in this industry and
even produce myself. Filmmaking is so much fun. bring it on!
