Robia LaMorte Scott, the talented actress who won our hearts as Jenny Calendar in the iconic TV series Buffy The Vampire Slayer, has resurfaced after nearly 20 years away from the spotlight. At 53 years old, she looks more sensational than ever, captivating fans with her beauty and grace.
While many may remember her for her lovable role as Jenny, there is much more to Robia than meets the eye. She was also a dancer, muse, and close friend of the legendary musician Prince. Despite taking a brief break from acting in 2019, she has now fully embraced her Christian faith and embarked on a new career as a life coach.
In interviews and on her Instagram and website, Robia openly shares her journey from actress to minister and how God has been with her every step of the way. She reflects on her time as a dancer, working with the likes of Ricky Martin, Michael Jackson, and of course, Prince. In fact, she even appeared on the cover of his 1991 album Diamonds and Pearls and toured with him as a backup dancer. She also starred in several of his music videos alongside her close friend Lori Elle.
Robia and Lori became known for speaking on behalf of Prince during a time when he refused to talk to the media. In a 2016 interview, Robia fondly recalls their mischievous antics and how they loved fueling speculation about their relationship.
After her successful dancing career, Robia landed the role of Jenny in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She appeared in 14 episodes as the Sunnydale High School computer teacher and earned a special place in the hearts of fans. However, her character took a dark turn when it was revealed that she was part of an evil Romani group responsible for cursing Buffy's love interest, Angel. This storyline was considered the most terrifying and upsetting of the show at the time.
Sadly, Robia's character met her demise at the hands of Angel's evil alter ego, Angelus, making her the first recurring character to die on the show. Fans were devastated, and Robia returned for three episodes as a ghost. But, ultimately, she decided to retire from acting after receiving what she believed to be a sign from God.
During her break from acting, Robia battled with weight, body image issues, and destructive habits. She turned to her Christian faith for guidance and wrote a book about her experience, titled Counterfeit Comforts. In 2019, she briefly returned to acting for the film Unplanned, inspired by the life of pro-life activist Abby Johnson.
Today, Robia works full-time as a minister and life coach, helping Christian women achieve optimal health and weight loss through her faith-infused method. She is happily married to her husband James Scott and living a fulfilling life, following God's plan for her. And for those who miss seeing her on screen, they can always watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Disney Plus.
