Troian Bellisario as Spencer


You already know Spencer Hastings inside and out. But what about the actress that plays her? We wouldn't want A to think we weren't doing our research, so we've dug up some details.

Troian Bellisario as Spencers Hastings in Pretty Little Liars on ABC Family
PRETTY LITTLE LIARS - Troian Bellisario stars as Spencer Hastings on ABC Family's "Pretty Little Liars." (ABC FAMILY/ANDREW ECCLES)

Here are five facts about Troian Bellisario. If we were overachievers like Spencer, we'd put these on flashcards and commit them to memory—but, don't worry, there won't be a quiz!

  • Alumna of USC's School of Theatre

  • Enjoys writing (check out her twitter! @sleepinthegardn)

  • Plays the guitar

  • Had a recurring role on NCIS and a guest appearance on JAG (Her stepbrother is actor Sean Murray who was on both shows)

  • Has discriminating taste in music (unlike Spencer, with her love of bad pop ringtones!)

Comments:

* Plays the only blonde of the group, yet she is a brunette. HAHAHAHAHA! I crack myself up! :P

I'm sorry but she does not look like Spencer and Emily is COMPLETELY off. The actresses may be talented (may be) but they look NOTHING like the characters and seem out of place.

O. Ya. About that Kait... hate to disappoint but from the clips of the show I've see, they're not the best actresses. And before anyone beats me up for saying that, I would just like to point out that I am entitled to my opinion. In addition, these girls ARE being paid to act and therefor are expected expected to be good, so don't go saying, "If your such a good actress why aren't you on the show?" I admit I am that I am not an actress. Your argument is invalid.

OMG!!!! i was re-reading killer and i realized something. when A sends Emily the picture of ali jenna and a blonde girl they suspect is naomi (or was it riley?) anyways, the message said one of theese things doesn't fit in..... they all thought it was jenna that didn't fit in but what if the blonde girl was Iris???? that would explain a lot of things!!! don't u agree?? email me at Herronjenna@aol.com

You know how on the previews for Pretty Little Liars it goes, "Never trust a pretty girl with an ugly secret"? Well that commercial was just on and my sister was sitting with her back to the T.V. and says, "Disgusting", and then I go, "Never trust ABC Family with a good book series." AAAAAHHHHH! I SO FUNNY!

I agree that they have the characters wrong. The only one that I think fits with the book is Hanna...

OMG THE OTHER DAY I WAS WATCHING TV IDK WHAT CHANNEL BUT THERE WAS THE ACTRESS WHO PLAYED ALI AND SHE WAS PLAYING A SNOTTY RICH GIRL WHO GOT EVERTHING SHE WANTED AND DIDNT CARE HOW SHE GOT IT AND SHE WAS PERFIT!

You do know that Hanna is blonde in the TV series, right Trisha?

Posted by Justine on May 24, 2010 at 09:56 PM EDT #

OMG Jenna, i have that SAME theory!!!....

Posted by Nicki on May 25, 2010 at 04:09 PM EDT #

she's good she just NEEDS to dye her hair blonde it's so important in figuring out SPOILER ALERT!!!****** that she's ali's half-sister

Posted by shanice on May 27, 2010 at 04:42 PM EDT #

No. No no no no no. But, Jenna, I totally agree! That's what I thought, too!

Posted by Priya on May 27, 2010 at 07:46 PM EDT #

NO! no one looks like they're supposed to exept aria:( i really pictured the model on the covers to look like them!

Posted by KASSIDY on May 28, 2010 at 06:47 PM EDT #

KASSIDY: I agree. You'd think they have actresses who look like the characters do on the covers of the books... It's annoying how they picture them one way and then get actresses who look the total opposite to play them in a TV series

Posted by SJ on May 28, 2010 at 08:31 PM EDT #

I think Troian and Ashley should switch roles, then they'll look more like their characters.

Posted by Megan on May 29, 2010 at 07:56 AM EDT #

im just so disipointed..... the people who read these books really picture them a certain way and the people who didnt read the books and r gonna watch the show are gonna picture them like this:(

Posted by Kassidy on May 29, 2010 at 12:20 PM EDT #

This actress looks nothing like emily should! she just ruined it!

Posted by kp1234 on May 29, 2010 at 10:20 PM EDT #

O Mi God!!! That is totally right Jenna. And the next book is coming on the same day as the show, its called Charmed. And that totally does not look like Spencer, uh it just bugs me that they have all the characters wrong! :(
