Ebony: celebrity beauty of the month

Even at 20 years old, ANGELL CONWELL, who suits up as a sexy flight attendant in the MGM comedy Soul Plane, still gets excited about playing dress-up when it comes to makeup. "I think it's fun to see yourself transform and to see how many different looks can be achieved just by mixing different colors and shades," she says. Though the up-and-coming actress likes a fresh face with gloss to display her natural beauty, she prefers being a glamour girl. "I love high glare! It's such a fun process." Going glare gives Angell a chance to be creative and sassy.

Angell, previously seen in the films Baby Boy and The Wash, put her best face forward when she joined the all-star ensemble comedy, starring Method Man, Snoop Dogg, Mo'Nique, Sommore and John Witherspoon.
