There is a new interview from Calgary Herald about Allie Bertram. She talks about her career, Hellcats and much more. Read below…

In September, she will be a part of the regular cast of Hellcats, a Glee-like entry from the CW about college cheerleaders. She’ll play a member of a holy-rolling squad called the Memphis Christian Cyclones, who are from a Catholic school and the chief rivals of the title characters led by Ashley Tisdale of High School Musical fame.

“Glee was such a huge hit,” she says. “It has a similar concept, but it is different. It’s with university so it’s a bit older and it’s cheerleading as opposed to the glee club. The actors have been learning to dance and to cheer and the cheerleaders have been learning to dance. The great thing about it is the choreographer is Paul Becker, who I worked with on So You Think You Can Dance. I knew the choreographer before I even auditioned.”

Like Smallville, Hellcats is executive produced by Clark Kent himself, actor Tom Welling. Since Bertram’s role in Smallville had her acting alongside Welling, she is hoping it leads to more face time and lines in future Hellcat episodes. She has also shot a pilot entitled Enviro Revolution, where she is the host of a program that celebrates green-minded young people.
