You may have heard the name of Ruby Rose if you’re a celebrity gossip reader, but if you’re a fan of the Netflix show “Orange Is the New Black,” you’re probably in love with her already. She’s the newest and hottest addition to the cast, and she’s as charming in real life as she’s beautiful on the small screen.

Ruby is a model, actress, DJ and LGBT activist from Australia, who moved to LA in search of the American dream. She was famous before landing the Stella part on “Orange,” but she was only so in certain online circles.

With this role, she became a viral sensation, with millions of fans gushing about her on social media and Internet forums.

Stopping by The Today Show the other day, to discuss her breakthrough role, you can almost sense how embarrassed and awed she is by all this show of affection towards her. You can see her interview in full in the video below.

Though she’s the hottest woman online right now, Ruby hasn’t forgotten yet how hard she worked to get to where she is, particularly the 2 years she spent not even being able to get an audition or a manager.

She didn’t even imagine her audition, which she sent in the mail, for “Orange” would lead to anything. Little did she know what life had in store for her.
