Amy Jessica Castle born on April 2, 1990 at Woodland Hills, California, USA.
Amy began studying acting at age 4, and signed with her manager and first agent in Fall of 1998. On her fifth audition, she landed the role of young Ally on the hit TV series Ally McBeal. During the show's second and third seasons she appeared in eight episodes. Since then, she has appeared in many other shows, including The Norm Show, Providence, Lizzie McGuire, Oliver Beene, Malcolm in the Middle, and Summerland.
In 2002, Amy won a Young Artist Award for "Best Performance In A Comedy Series - Guest Starring Young Actress" for her work on Lizzie McGuire in the episode "Just Like Lizzie".
In the summer of 2007, Amy booked what is currently her largest role to date: A recurring part on the daytime drama Passions. She plays Viki, the niece of Harmony resident Esme Vanderheusen.
When Amy isn't working, she enjoys dancing, which she has been studying since she was 4, singing, playing guitar, and making short films with friends. She has recently discovered her passion for filmmaking (editing specifically), and has her own YouTube channel which she shares with Erin Sanders who plays Quinn on Zoey 101.
Contrary to popular belief, Amy is the one who sang "You're My Honeybunch", also known as "Cuppycake", one of her best-known songs, not Strawberry Shortcake, who's vocal role is played by Sarah Heinke.
The original 1994 video of "The Cuppycake Song" (words and music by Judianna Castle) being recorded by the original artist Amy at age 3 yrs, 10 mo.) in her parents home studio.
Lyrics of Cuppycake:
You're my Honeybunch, Sugarplum
Pumpy-umpy-umpkin, You're my Sweetie Pie
You're my Cuppycake, Gumdrop
Snoogums-Boogums, You're the Apple of my Eye
And I love you so and I want you to know
That I'll always be right here
And I love to sing sweet songs to you
Because you are so dear
Since uploading "The Cuppycake Song" to the web in 1996, it has truly taken on a life of it's own. On You Tube alone, there are currently over 2,000 videos using this song! In the last ten years her parents have received thousands of unsolicited comments from people of all ages across the US and many countries around the world who have been touched by this simple song and the tiny voice that sings it.
Amy celebrated her 18th birthday last April 18 2008.
