Gabriele Rozzi as CarlaCarla is played by Gabriele (also spelled Gabrielle) Bennett [IMDB], credited in the second season as Gabriele Bennett-Rossi. Gabriele sings and plays drums in the videos, and did actually sing on the Kidd Video songs. She is featured as lead vocalist on "Turn Me Up" and "It's Over When the Phone Stops Ringing." She also provides the voice of Carla in the cartoons.
We know very little about Gabriele other than her role in Kidd Video. There are no known credits for her from before the show. One article of the time mentions that she was "first runner-up in the recent Miss Hollywood Talent competition" [1985].
Up until about a year ago we had almost no information on Gabriele... but in May 2009, someone added biographical information about her to Wikipedia. According to the article, she has been working as a teacher, and is married with three sons. In 2009 it says she appeared in a community theatre performance of "Zombie Prom" in Virginia Beach, VA. For the information in this article, we gather that the correct spelling of her name is Rozzi and in the show credits her name was reversed.
We would be happy to hear from Gabriele, her family or friends about how she is doing... please send us an email.
