Majandra Delfino (born Maria Alejandra Delfino on February 20, 1981 in Caracas, Venezuela), is an actress who is best known for her role as Maria DeLuca in the cult television series Roswell.

Biography

Delfino was nicknamed "Majandra" by her elder sister, Marieh, who is also an actress. Marieh couldn't pronounce her real name, and the nickname stuck.[1] She is half-Cuban and half-Venezuelan.

Delfino was always more of a musician than an actress, and since the termination of Roswell back in 2002, she has refocused herself on her music, releasing the critically acclaimed 2001 album The Sicks on her own label, Dripfeed, without radio or television airplay. She is currently working on her second album, which is to include songs from the six track album she previously released, as well as newer works. The album, believed to be entitled Tarte, is due for release in November 2006. She has also received attention in France, through her duet with French chantuese RoBERT, titled "Le Prince Bleu D'Arthelius" in which she sings both in English and French.

She starred in Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth, which was made before Scary Movie but didn't receive major cinematic release. She has also been in Reeseville, Celeste in the City, The Tony Danza Show, and R.S.V.P., with Jason Mewes (of Dogma fame) and Glenn Quinn (of Angel).

Delfino was previously in a relationship with her Roswell costar, Brendan Fehr. She is currently dating Devon Gummersall (of My So-Called Life fame) and who also played her cousin on Roswell.
