Eileen profiled in the B&B Buzz
FEBRUARY 4, 2014 – Eileen Faxas has had several careers across the country, but one thing has always been there.
An audience.
“The Following” on Fox
My TV Network Debut came in the form of an anchor role on Fox’s hit show THE FOLLOWING… making it a full circle moment for the TV Reporter-turned-Actor-now-playing-TV Reporter. I had a brief Kevin Bacon sighting, which means I now win ALL games of 7 Degrees of Kevin Bacon. And I met some lovely people…
Labor Day Is Here
JANUARY 31, 2014 – Eileen makes her major motion picture debut in LABOR DAY, starring Kate Winslet, Josh Brolin & Tobey Maguire. She was handpicked by director Jason Reitman, who loved her authentic newscaster style when she auditioned for the role of a news anchor! This commercial (and film trailer) use Eileen’s voice! In this…
Panda Kitchen & Bath
Sexy-Time! OK, G-rated sexy time! My newest commercial finds me in super-seductress mode, using my womanly wiles to get my man (played by My Man) to not only make me dinner, but do an instant kitchen makeover to impress me. I am, in fact, so impressed that I can’t help but do the Sexy-Time-Countertop-Crawl…. Or…
Everybody Loves Lil
Aunt Lil is a saucy, scotch-swilling retiree/aspiring Broadway star… and the brainchild of puppeteer Kristen Michelle. Eileen guest stars in this webisode as a less-than-supportive actress in Aunt Lil’s first acting class. Catch the wacky new web series here.

Tribeca Film Festival
Now THIS was fun: Running around Rockefeller Plaza for the Tribeca Film Festival’s Drive-In Movie evening. This being New York City, no one actually DROVE in anything but their own feet, but the idea was symbolic and a car company WAS the sponsor. Watch for an appearance by former SNL cast member Rachel Dratch.
Jazzercise Halftime Show
The last time I heard the word “Jazzercise”, I still played with Weeble Wobbles…. (Remember those?!?! I loved my Weeble Wobble Treehouse! But I digress….) Jazzercise apparently never went away, unlike the Weeble Wobbles, and to prove it, Jazzercisers from all over Florida converged on Dolphin Stadium to perform in a special halftime show. The…
The Miracle Lid
My first Infomercial! The casting directors for this Infomercial didn’t want to see me for an audition (the culprit: my glamorous red hair!) But my spunky agent sent me anyway, and I booked the job! And what a job! I got paid to crack jokes and eat. Well, also to hit the major talking points. …
The Dirty Weather Report
What better way to respond to the prospect of global warming than to drop a few choice words on a weathercast? That’s the premise of my last commercial to hit the airwaves. It’s for the Climate Reality Initiative, created by Al Gore (who also created the internet). I am Le Grand Finalé!
