Chillin’ With Natalie Sharp

Natalie Sharp is a Canadian actress, singer, and songwriter from Vancouver, BC.

She began working as a guest star for CW’s cult hit series, Supernatural, and later appeared on the hit television shows Motive, You Me Her, and Loudermilk. She can also be seen in The Miracle Season alongside Academy Award winners Helen Hunt and William Hurt. Most recently, she starred in the musical comedy Hit the Road from Audience Network as the daughter to Jason Alexander’s character and lead singer of the series.

Natalie’s most recent work was on the new BH90210 revival playing “Anna,” a successful, millennial TV writer. The series features the original Beverly Hills 90210 cast members playing exaggerated versions of themselves. We spoke with Natalie about her love of Gin and Tonics and speakeasies.

Tell us a bit about the projects you are working on.

BH90210 was such a fun experience! My character is pretty bold and witty, and working with the original cast was a dream. Currently I am working on a movie called The Babysitter, where I play the lead role “Cassie.” It’s been a really exciting experience to be on the set of this thriller.

With your busy schedule, what do you like to do with your downtime?

What down time? ;) Kidding. I love to do anything outside, especially in the summer; going to the beach, hiking, boating, paddle boarding, hanging with friends, but also binge watching all the shows.

When you go out to eat, where do you like to dine?

I have so many places that I love! Honestly anything with sushi or pasta.

Do you cook?

I try to cook. My mom is an incredible cook and definitely spoiled my brother and me. I feel like I will never live up to the standard that she has set! I do make an amazing gnocchi dish with spinach cream sauce and prawns.

What types of drinks do you order when out?

Gin and Tonic is definitely my go-to. If I’m feeling something more exciting, I love a good Espresso Martini or a pick-me-up!

Do you prepare drinks at home?

At home I will usually have wine. Haven’t installed the cocktail bar yet!

Do you own a home bar?

I do not! It is on the list though!

What do you envision your home bar to be like?

My home bar would be gold with marble. Cause why not, go big? It would be stocked with Nosotros Tequila (my friend’s company), Almond Milk Baileys, definitely some ciders from Okanagan, Canada, maybe some ginger beers and gin of course!  I sound like my father (laughs).

What is your favorite cocktail?

Pina Colada.

Have you ever been a bartender?

I have not been a bartender, but I have always thought it would be fun depending on the atmosphere of the bar :) A 1920’s themed speakeasy would be my jam!
