Title: The girl from the "Charlotte Sometimes" video was Simon's girlfriend?
Post by: dsanchez on November 28, 2005, 14:38:39
A friend of mine just told me this yesterday. I am not sure if it's true, but if it was I just can say Simon has a great taste ;). What's the name of this beauty, by the way?

I don't think it's true. I remember Robert talking about that video in an interview, and how much he hated it. He was talking about the girl in such away that it seemed like it was just some random actress they hired to do it, and he wasn't happy with her either.

Just by what Robert said and the way he said it, I'm pretty sure this is some sort of myth. :?

I didn't know Robert hated this video. Actually is my favourite one and one of the "darkest" of The Cure. Also not to mention this beautiful actress ;)

Thanks for the info.

I always thought she was Tracey Childs, but really not sure now. The nose is not the same. The girl in the vid has a more upturned, smaller and more pointy nose. She is so lovely though. She has haunted me for years. Can anyone really say who she is?

Hello GSXR1000! Welcome to curefans.com

I am merging your question with this existing (similar) topic. I'm not sure about the name of the actress. Maybe someday we will know?

Probably because it did not work out the way the band had wanted it.  :(

In this video https://youtu.be/IWopqj0dFic at 1:23 mark, he talks about not liking the video/actress. "Watch out for the uselessly horrible girl in it"
