The T-Mobile girl is one of the most recognizable brand spokespeople out there right now. She gives Progressive's Flo a run for her money.
Famous for her pink dress and then bad girl biker makeover, few people know what the real T-Mobile girl is like.
Her name is Carly Foulkes, and the graphic novel-reading, video-game playing, 24-year-old Alanis Morissette fan isn't your typical model/actress.
Since she took over for Catherine Zeta-Jones as the T-Mobile spokesperson in 2010, Americans have gotten to know her as the feminine side of the technology world. But did you know that she doesn't even have a Facebook account?
We took a look past her cell phone plan.
Foulkes is from our neighbor to the North.
According the description on her Twitter handle, "I am Canadian. Embrace it. Love it. ...Please:)"
The province? Again, according to her Twitter, "Your moms house."
Foulkes was born to British parents who raised her in Toronto. She spent her summers in the UK.
She's only 24.
Foulkes first donned the T-Mobile dress when she was only 22 years old.
Born on August 4, 1988, Foulkes is proudly a Leo. According to an interview with My Daily, she was distressed when false rumors spread last year that the astrological calendar had shifted.
If we are going to take the whole astrology thing seriously, being a Leo means Foulkes can be a little melodramatic and vain, but she is also ambitious, encouraging, and loyal.
Ok, but seriously, what's she like?
Carly Foulkes loves to skateboard.
She also loves playing video games.
