Fernanda Romero
Fernanda Romero (born as María Fernanda Romero Martínez on October 4, 1983) is a Mexican actress, model and singer.  She is most noted for her starring role in the Mexican telenovela Eternamente tuya and her supporting role in the American film The Eye.

Biography
Romero began her singing career when she joined BMG's recording ensemble group, Frizzby, who began touring Central America to promote their two top ten singles. They performed for Pope John Paul II at the famous Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

By the time Romero reached eighteen she was in ad campaigns for brands like Rock and Republic, Clean & Clear, Pepsi, Apple, and J.C. Penney.  She also appeared in magazines such as GQ Mexico, OK Magazine Espanol, Reforma and ELLE Mexico.

Romero began her acting career as host of the Univision television show Control, followed shortly by an appearance on the Telemundo telenovela La Ley del Silencio.  These led to her first film offer, a role in the film Creature of Darkness, and several more small roles.

Romero's breakout role occurred in the film The Eye.  This exposure to American audiences led to more Hollywood films, including The Burning Plain, Drag Me to Hell and Red Canvas.

In 2009, Fernanda Romero returned to Mexico to star in the soap opera Eternamente tuya.

Immigration issues
In 2010, Romero was arrested on charges of immigration fraud, accused of entering into a sham marriage to obtain legal immigrant status. She and her husband, a musician, were arrested in their separate homes, and put on trial, where she was accused of paying her groom $5000 for the marriage. She wasn't found guilty by a jury, but reached a deal and pled guilty to a lesser count, and was ordered to serve 30 days in jail. Although such a conviction is generally followed by deportation, , the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service had not taken any action to deport Romero.
