An American actress, dancer, and choreographer by the name of Briana Cuoco. She is the younger sister of The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco, who plays Penny on the wildly successful CBS comedy. As the former friend and current fiancée of Penny’s ex-boyfriend, Briana has made a guest appearance on her sister’s popular show. Cuoco, a native of California, was raised in a family that exemplifies the cultural melting pot that is America. She has had a passion for performing arts in many forms ever since she was little. Cuoco quietly entered the acting business as her sister rose to prominence as the king or queen of primetime television. Aside from TBBT, she has since appeared as a guest star in programs like “The Newsroom,” “The Mentalist,” and “Mom,” and she played a recurring role in the online series “The Lydia Bennet!” Cuoco is becoming more well-known for her singing. She competed on “The Voice” and her band, “Bluebird,” published their debut, self-titled EP in 2012.
Career of Briana Cuoco
As a personal assistant to her sister, a seasoned Hollywood actress, Briana Cuoco launched her professional career. In the 2001 episode “Tangled Web” of the American children’s anthology horror series “The Nightmare Room,” which used to show on Kids’ WB, she made her acting debut as Nikki in a guest role. Her next televised appearance wouldn’t come for another ten years. In the 2012 installment of Aaron Sorkin’s political drama “The Newsroom,” “The 112th Congress,” she portrayed Neal Sampat’s (Dev Patel’s) date.
In the web series “The Lizzie Bennet Diaries,” a contemporary adaptation of Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice,” Cuoco played Mary Bennet in the same year. In the first two seasons of the spin-off “The Lydia Bennet!!,” she reprised her character and appeared in a total of 14 episodes. While Mary Bennet appears in the book as one of the five Bennet sisters, she frequently makes appearances in Lydia’s vlogs as Lizzie and Jane’s cousin. She and Lydia form a close relationship during the course of the TV show while Lydia stays at their house. Despite having obviously different personalities, they discover that they can get along fairly well. In the series, she has a Twitter name that reads, “I am Mary, never forgotten,” making fun of how she is virtually a forgotten character in the novel. Eddie appears to be Mary’s lover.
She played Gretchen in “The Big Bang Theory,” an old acquaintance of Penny whose ex-boyfriend had an affair with Gretchen. She made an appearance in Valentine’s Day-themed season six episode “The Tangible Affection Proof.” In the 2013 episode of CBS’s “The Mentalist,” “Behind the Red Curtain,” Cuoco played Maggie, a dancer.
She appeared in the romantic comedy “Beauty in the Broken” in 2015, playing the role of Pele Peterson. She had a guest appearance as Tabitha in the 2017 CBS television series “Mom” episode “A Seafaring Ancestor and a Bloomin’ Onion.”
Adele, Sara Bareilles, Fiona Apple, and Florence and the Machine have all had a significant impact on her band Bluebird. Five songs from their 2012 Extended Play, “Bluebird,” were included: “Another Year,” “October,” “Welcome to the Night,” “Selfish,” and “Be My Baby.” It garnered excellent ratings on iTunes, despite the fact that it was largely unknown to music listeners.
In 2013, Cuoco participated in a blind audition for “The Voice” season 5. She sang the 2011 song “You and I” by Lady Gaga while Kaley and the rest of her family cheered her on from backstage. She eventually decided on Christina Aguilera as her coach after convincing CeeLo Green and both of them to support her. But Blake Shelton “stole” her during the battle rounds.
