[Profiles] Azita Ghanizada- An Afghan American actress

Azita Ghanizada is an Afghan American actress in the United States who appeared in a number of films and television series. She was born in Kabul, Afghanistan. Her family immigrated to the United States and was granted asylum to remain. She was raised in Northern Virginia. She is the middle child of two sisters. Ghanizada began her on-air camera career being featured in several National Commercials. In the Laura Neri film A Kiss on the Nose (2004), Ghanizada played the lead role of Chiara, a performance for which she received a film festival best actress nomination. Her television guest-starring roles include How I Met Your Mother, Entourage, Veronica Mars, The Wedding Bells, NUMB3RS, Bones, Psych and Castle. She most recently had a supporting role in the science fiction action film Blood Shot (2009), and the independent comedies, "You, Only Better" (2009). In 2008, Ghanizada joined the cast of the General Hospital prime-time spin-off General Hospital: Night Shift for season 2 as Dr. Saira Batra, a specialist in holistic medicine. In 2009, Ghanizada played Kelly, a Prada sales girl on HBO's Entourage (season 6, episode 2).

Azita Ghanizada is so sexy that she reportedly has had trouble landing work in Hollywood because she's too sexy -- something that's not difficult to believe, because the girl is flat-out sizzling. Her Afghani roots give her the intoxicating shades of brown that flow throughout her gorgeous hair, sun-splashed skin tone and those dark, luscious eyes. Add to that a solid education, clear intelligence and an all-American upbringing, Azita Ghanizada has sex appeal to spare. She's also bilingual, speaking both English and Dari (also called the Kabuli accent, an Afghan dialect of Farsi), and foreign accents are almost invariably super hot
