Rose McGowan

She will soon portray Ann-Margret in Elvis, a Mini-series filming in 2005 for CBS about the life of Elvis Presley. Besides their singing work, 3LW has appeared as guest stars on Christina Vidal's Nickelodeon show Taina. However in 2001 she was cast as Paige Matthews in the hit television series Charmed as a replacement for Shannen Doherty. Currently she can be seen on the show weekly as part of a trio of witchy-sisters. The group's latest album, Phoenix Rising, was originally slated for release later that same year; it has had its release date pushed back several times since then. Then several unwise script choices (including a small role in the wrestling-themed movie Ready to Rumble, which was a massive bomb at the box-office) served to nearly push McGowan out of the limelight. In fall 2003, 3LW departed from Epic, signing with Jermaine Dupri's So So Def label. McGowan ended their two year engagement over "lifestyle differences". Jessica Benson made the cut, and offiically joined 3LW in December.

Soon McGowan was popping up as celebrity events in very revealing outfits with Manson on her arm. After their late [[2002] single "Never Get Enuf" underperformed, auditions were held across the country for a new third member. McGowan was quickly getting a reputation for playing brassy, bitchy and often violent characters, and to add to this reputation she began a very public romance with shock-rocker Marilyn Manson. Williams and Adrienne Bailon continued as a duo, though still using the "3LW" name, leading to the press to jokingly refer to them as "2LW". Her next critically acclaimed performance would be in the 1999 black comedy Jawbreakers where she played a high school student who tries to cover up her (allegedly) accidental murder of a friend. Naughton alleged that the other two girls and their manager forced her out of the group, and that she left in the aftermath of a heated food fight between her and Kiely Williams. Soon she was appearing everywhere in independent films like Southie, Going All the Way, Lewis & Clark & George, and Phantoms by Dean Koontz. The group was set to release its newest LP, A Girl Can Mack, when Naturi Naughton anounced that she was no longer a member of the group.

As the anti-stereotypical busty blonde who gets slaughtered (by, of all things, a garage door) McGowan left a huge impression on the viewing audience. Diddy-produced single "I Do (Wanna Get Close To You)", featuring Loon. McGowan was cast as Tatum in the hit horror film Scream. Recording a new set of tracks, 3LW returned in late summer 2002 with the P. Another small role in the film Bio-Dome with Stephen Baldwin led to the role that brought her into major public attention. A fan support campaign for 3LW spread to the radio, and the act was retained on the label. Araki cast her as the female lead in his hit film The Doom Generation, where she portrayed a foul-mouthed sexpot in the midst of a violent, crime-prone bisexual love triangle. The tracks from Same Game, Different Rules were leaked to the Internet in MP3 format, and Epic considered dropping the girls.

Her first role was won at the age of 19 as Nora in Encino Man, but it wasn't until she ran away to Los Angeles, California and met independent film director Gregg Araki that she found her big break. The album and its intended lead single "Uh Oh" were presented to the label, who felt it didn't have enough urban radio appeal. that McGowan began modeling. 3LW spent the first half of 2002 in the studio, recording an album tentatively titled Same Game, Different Rules. It was in the U.S. "No More" was a success, and was followed by "Playas Gon' Play" and 3LW, the group's first LP. Her high school years were spent in Seattle, where her father ended up. Signed to Epic Records, their first single, "No More (Baby I'ma Do Right)", was released in early 2001.

Born to a French mother and an Irish father who were members of the Children of God, and the second oldest of six children, Rose's parents divorced and she moved to Gig Harbor, Washington, when she was just nine years old. Its founding members, Naturi Naughton (born May 20, 1984), Adrienne Bailon (born October 24, 1983), and Kiely Williams (born July 9, 1986), signed with Epic Records, with Keily's mother Michelle serving as manager.
