Leonor Ceballos Watling comes from Madrid, Spain. She will turn 35 on 28th Jul 2010. She is well known in her homeland as an actress and a songstress. She started off with acting first when she was in her mid teens in Jardines Colgantes. Following this, movie and TV roles kept coming in. She received her 1st Goya nomination for her part in La Hora De Los Valientes. Last year of the last century saw her as a Shooting Star by European Film Promotions.
Another nomination 2 years into the new century recognized her work in A Mi Madre Le Gustan Las Musjeres. She appeared in over 30 productions (movies and TV Series) and was also involved in reality and other TV shows where she played herself. Altogether she has 12 nominations for which she received 6 awards, mainly by Spanish/European awards. She has 4 movies coming out this year and next. As well as acting, she also sings and has released 5 albums in total with her group Marlango.
The genre is mainly jazz, blues and rock and the songs are performed in English language. On a personal front, this brunette became a mom about 15 months ago for the first time. The father of her son is Jorge Drexler. Given that her blood is half Spanish and half English, she speaks both languages perfectly and uses both in her communication with her siblings. Leonor Watling always saw herself in a center of attention but more in a way of dancing rather than acting.
Her crooked knee meant that she couldn't dance and make that dream come true, but could appear on stage and in movies. Her move to UK proved good for her so she could learn more about acting and get roles and more recognition. She has her own official website listing all her work and appearances to date as well as future projects.
