• Comment: May be notable but there are no citations of significant coverage in reliable independent secondary sources, but there are almost no inline citation, and numerous assertions are unsupported by any references. As a minimum for a biography of a living person, we would expect a reliable source for almost every sentence, and at least one per paragraph. Please note IMDb is not a reliable source Paul W (talk) 16:58, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
