A native South African, Musetta was raised without that most basic of modern conveniences - television!
However, as the daughter of a ballet teacher, Musetta was no stranger to the entertainment world & debuted on stage at the age of 4. Her childhood was filled with numerous song and dance performances and shortly after school she qualified as a ballet teacher herself.
After earning a Bachelors Degree in Communications and Psychology, she landed the plum job as anchor host for an MTV-like television show in South Africa. One day a handsome visiting American spotted her on television, made her his bride, and whisked her off to the very place she had always dreamed of—Hollywood.
Shortly after her arrival, she became part of the very world she used to host, appearing as the ‘dream girl’ in more than twenty music videos for top recording artists including Rod Stewart, Tina Turner, Elton John, and Chris Isaak.
It was her critically acclaimed stage performance in the original South African play Soweto’s Burning, about the trials of an interracial friendship in their racially segregated country, that provided her transition to the big screen. Since then, Musetta has performed in numerous feature films and been fortunate to work alongside such screen veterans as Kevin Kline, Kenneth Branagh, Will Smith (Wild Wild West), George Clooney, John Turturro (O Brother, Where Art Thou?), Jennifer Lopez (The Cell), Sally Kirkland (What’s Up Scarlet?), Robert Duvall and Will Ferrell (Kicking & Screaming).
She’s also added a slew of television credits to her arsenal including guest appearances on the hit shows Stargate SG-1 and Frasier.
Musetta recently completed two films: Say it in Russian which was shot on location in Russia with Rade Serbedzija, and a sequel to the very successful National Lampoon comedy Dorm Daze. Both films will be released later this year. She is currently filming Order of Redemption, a dramatic tale of corruption and self-realization in which one man has to overcome a deep-seated conspiracy and his own lingering past in order to gain the redemption he desires. In this film Musetta stars opposite Tom Berenger, Armand Assante, and Busta Rhymes. She can also currently be seen as the ever-efficient Agent 24/7, spokesperson for Prudential Real Estate, in several television commercials and an animated billboard in Times Square.
