Actress Susie Castillo to Appear in National Advertising Campaign

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- A leading manufacturer of premium skin, hair and cosmetics products, Neutrogena Corporation today announced that actress Susie Castillo will act as the newest spokesperson for the brand.

"Susie Castillo is a young, dynamic and talented woman who embodies the fresh, healthy qualities of Neutrogena. We are excited to have her be a part of our team," says Neutrogena President, North America, Jim Colleran.

A vivacious beauty of Puerto Rican and Dominican descent, Ms. Castillo is currently a host of MTV's wildly successful TRL (Total Request Live) and Big Ten, which are broadcast live and daily from New York City's boisterous Times Square. As a result of her ongoing VJ success, she's had access to and interviewed such prominent celebrities as Tom Cruise, Jennifer Lopez and Jamie Foxx. But her love of music is insatiable, as this enterprising starlet is also a DJ, where she hosts her own syndicated, bi-lingual radio show called TRLatino.

When she's not hosting TRL, most likely Ms. Castillo can still be found performing in front of a camera. A rising young actress, Ms. Castillo will next take on the feature-film role of news reporter Diana Flores in Disney's soon-to-be released, live-action remake of the classic cartoon Underdog, which is scheduled for distribution on August 3, 2007. She has also appeared on notable TV shows such as Live! With Regis & Kelly, ABC's My Wife and Kids and UPN's Half and Half.

An undeniable beauty, Ms. Castillo is the third Latina ever to be crowned Miss USA, which she earned in 2003.

Ms. Castillo was raised in a low-income neighborhood by a single mother and is strongly committed to her position as a role model. She helps young teens overcome their obstacles by impressing upon them the importance of education, ambition and having positive self-esteem.

As a new spokesperson for Neutrogena, Ms. Castillo will be featured in both national TV and print campaigns. She joins fellow Neutrogena spokespersons Kelly Preston, Gabrielle Union, Hayden Panettiere, Julie Bowen, Kristin Kreuk and Paola Rey, each of whom will continue in their role as Neutrogena representatives.
