AnnaLynne McCord Gets Feisty On '90210'

AnnaLynne McCord talked with us about being on the wildly popular CW show 90210 and her partnership with AcneHeroes.com.

A spin-off of the iconic drama Beverly Hills, 90210, the new 90210 looks at life through the eyes of Annie Wilson, played by Shenae Grimes and her brother Dixon, whose first day at West Beverly Hills High School is a rude awakening from the cozy life they had previously in Kansas. The siblings help each other cope with their new environs, which includes the presence of McCord's Naomi, a hot, spoiled, rich girl; Ethan (Dustin Milligan) a popular jock, Navid (Michael Steger), an aspiring journalist who heads up the school's daily newscast; and Silver (Jessica Stroup), a rebel who produces and stars in a YouTube-type video series.

When McCord is not on set, she is part of the educational program AcneHeroes.com. It's a campaign aimed at debunking acne myths and informing those who have acne about how to get clearer skin and when to consult a physician.

Born in Atlanta, Georgia, McCord has recently starred in the 2007 horror film remake Day of the Dead, and the 2008 horror film Slaughter. She has also made appearances on Close to Home, The O.C., Ugly Betty, Greek, and Cold Case.

90210 airs Tuesdays at 9 pm on WPIX. For more information on AcneHeroes, visit AcneHeroes.com.
