What Happened To Starla After Napoleon Dynamite?
Typically when people look back on cinema history, it is the highest-grossing films that come to mind first and foremost. For example, when most people think about the film scene during the 2000s, the movies that come to mind are the Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Harry Potter series, The Dark Knight, and some Marvel flicks. However, unlike the movies that are mainly remembered due to how successful they were, some films have gone down in history as cult classics because they are infinitely rewatchable.
Of course, of all the movies that came out during the 2000s, Napoleon Dynamite is one of the best-remembered cult classic films from the decades. After all, the film was successful enough that its star Jon Heder eventually became rich and famous. Far from the typical film, Napoleon Dynamite featured a slew of extremely unique characters. As a result, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that several fascinating actors starred in Napoleon Dynamite. For example, the actor who played Napoleon Dynamite’s Starla seemed very interesting which begs an obvious question, what happened to her after the film’s release?
Who Was Carmen Brady AKA 'Starla'?
As Napoleon Dynamite fans will already know, the character Starla was barely seen onscreen in the film. The wife of Rex, the man who teaches his own style of martial arts, “Rex Kwon Do”, Starla is initially only seen in a photo. Brought to life by the real-life bodybuilder Carmen Brady, the character stood out from the second Starla appears on screen due to the incredible body the woman who portrayed her possessed. Later in the film, Starla shows up in person and Rex ultimately catches her in an awkward position with Rico which leads to Napoleon’s uncle getting beaten up.
In most actors’ hands, Starla would be an extremely easy to forget character given that she doesn’t appear on screen much. On top of that, all of the scenes that Starla appeared in, either in person or as seen in a photo, focused on her effect on the men who interacted with her. However, since Napoleon Dynamite’s writer and director hired Carmen Brady to portray Starla and she has so much presence on screen, the character became extremely memorable. As it turns out, however, even though most Napoleon Dynamite fans remember Starla, they tend to know nothing about what Carment Brady has been up to since the movie’s release.
Where’s Carmen Brady AKA 'Starla' Now?
According to IMDB, Carmen Bady’s only acting credit to date is playing Starla in Napoleon Dynamite. Given Brady’s amazing body and the fact that she seemed to enjoy appearing in Napoleon Dynamite, that is pretty surprising. However, if Napoleon Dynamite fans look into Carmen Brady’s life online, it actually makes a lot of sense that her filmography consists of a single role. After all, Brady appears to be a pretty private person given that there is no information out there about her personal life.
Even though there doesn’t seem to be any way to learn more about Carmen Brady’s personal life, that doesn’t mean that her life post-Napoleon Dynamite is a total mystery. After all, if you go to muscles.org, the website seems to consist of a single page that lists Brady’s award-winning bodybuilding history. On top of that, the website’s main function seems to be motivating visitors to hire Brady as their personal trainer. After all, the website includes a biography that reveals that Brady began working as a personal trainer in 1973. Additionally, the website states that Brady currently is certified as a personal trainer.
Since the aforementioned website looks like it hasn’t been updated in a long time, some fans may assume that Carmen Brady no longer works as a personal trainer. In fact, since so many bodybuilders have lost their mass and suffered health problems over the years, some people may be left wondering if Brady is still in great shape. Unfortunately, there is no way to confirm that Brady still is huge. However, based on the photo of herself looking jacked that Brady posted on Twitter in 2018, it seems very likely that she is still in phenomenal shape.
On top of providing fans with a much more recent image of Carmen Brady sporting huge muscles, the Starla actor’s Twitter account reveals a lot about who she has become. After all, from the moment that anyone starts to scroll through Brady’s Twitter feed, two things almost instantly become clear. First off, Brady seems to absolutely adore her puppy based on all of the images of photos of the dog she has posted. On top of that Brady very clearly is an extremely devoted supporter of Donald Trump. After all, Brady’s Twitter feed is dominated by tweets and retweets supporting former President Trump, the people in his orbit, and republicans in general. In fact, Brady even tweeted an image of Napoleon Dynamite’s Uncle Rico that calls out Trump enemy James Comey.
