How Dare Taylor Plans to Crush It in 2023
Dare Taylor, thank you for taking time from your busy schedule to share your life with us. You are a multi-talented influencer and celebrity, and we look forward to sharing your story. Dare, you have an impressive past with your modeling talent. Miss Minnesota in 2014, Miss Bikini Model in 2019/2020. When and where did you get your start in modeling?
"I started modeling when I was 10 years old. My mom would be my Photographer, and we would take headshots for upcoming pageants. At first, I was really shy, and I had no idea what I was doing, but I knew I really wanted to model and act! As I became more confident with myself and in the pageant industry, my Modeling started getting better! I even went to an acting and modeling Cattle call and was selected by an agency to potentially represent me at 14."

Congratulations on a nice set of credits in video shorts, television, and movies. Can you tell us a little bit about your experience having the lead role in the upcoming movie Rain?
"I appreciate you taking the time to look at my IMDb! I’m really proud of myself for working hard and landing so many roles in the short amount of time I’ve been in LA!
Staying focused has really paid off! But unfortunately, with that movie title, I can’t answer any questions about it or even confirmed that’s the name of the movie. BUT All I can divulge is that it’s coming out soon, and I’m playing the lead character who gets seduced by a wealthy, socialite woman. It’s a dark drama and will really take you on a roller coaster of emotions."
Are you pursuing more in acting moving forward?
"Yes, I moved to LA like most to pursue an acting career, And I can’t wait to continue this path! I really think this upcoming film will help people see me in a different light than when I present online."
Can you tell us some of the ups and downs of achieving influencer fame and continuing success?
"For me personally, I love and adore the creativity It allows me! I get to create whatever Content I would like and at the time and pace that I would like! But sometimes, that can also be a trap… I used to really chase the likes and views, but I’ve grown tired of it. People are so accustomed to seeing me in a certain light. Mainly being pretty or sexy, but I’m breaking out of that image. I really want to integrate more of my singing and acting talents. Show people that you can have multiple talents and be successful with them. I do enjoy having an audience eagerly waiting for my next piece of Content. It’s truly a blessing, the 18-year-old me who was once homeless would love to have these problems, so I’d certainly don’t take any of it for granted."
What are your latest projects?
"I’m already prepping for my next music video on my YouTube channel Dare Bear Live. I’m consistently auditioning for bigger streaming services with my acting career, and on my TikTok, I’m writing more skits for my series called package Prankers with my Bestie, Cody Renee Cameron (@heyitscodee), who also is an actress. Getting ready to walk in New York fashion week for a huge swimsuit designer in February and making my master list of cosplay conventions I’ll be attending this year and hopefully publicly speaking at. But I’m also open. I’m always open to help my friends with their creative projects or attend big events to help promote them, or just networking in general. My passion is people, and I can’t wait for the next big thing!"
Do you plan on touring in any significant events/festivals in 2023?
"Yes, I’m making a huge list of cosplay conventions I’d like to attend! Looking forward to possibly doing London, Paris, and Japan this year as well! Although Japan is a guilty pleasure, not necessarily for work. 🙈"
