Hi everyone, there aren’t any news about Anna Sophia lately, but i want you all to know taht i’m here ready to update as soon as something come up! Kisses!

The surfer who was attacked by a tiger shark when she was 13 not only survived but continues to surf, inspiring others to pursue their dreams.

Bethany Hamilton was born in Hawaii (on the island of Kauai) and comes from a family of surfers, so it makes sense that she would eventually end up on a board. At the age of 7, she was surfing without the help of her parents, and when she was 8, she won both the short and long board divisions for 7- to 9-year-olds at the Rell Sunn Menehune surfing competition. She was later sponsored by Rip Curl and her goal of becoming a pro surfer looked to be well on its way.

… overcame a shark attack…

On October 31, 2003, she was surfing with her best friend, Alana, and members of Alana’s family when Bethany was attacked by a 14-foot tiger shark. The attack caused her to lose more than 60 percent of her blood and left her with a severed left arm, but thanks to the people she was surfing with (who made a tourniquet out of a surfing leash and quickly paddled her into shore) and several successful surgeries, she survived. Just one month later, she was back in the water, and in January 2004, three months after the attack, she was competing in a surfing contest with just one arm.

… and continues competing today.

After winning the 2004 ESPY for Best Comeback Athlete of the Year, she managed to win the Explorer Women’s division of the NSSA National Championships in 2005. She’s now competing on the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) Women’s World Qualifying Series (WQS), having finished last year ranked 14th overall. And if that’s not impressive enough, next year, you can see her life story unfold on the big screen, as AnnaSophia Robb will portray her in the movie Soul Surfer, which will also star Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt as her parents.

Leslie Mann, Kate Bosworth, AnnaSophia Robb and Juno Temple have all signed on to the drama GOODNIGHT MOON.  Robb and Temple will play young teenage girls that get involved with skaters and street gangs when they move to Los Angeles.  Mann will play Temple’s mother and Bosworth will play Mann’s sister.  The film will be directed by Elgin James and is considered a semi-autobiographical story, although he had his adventures in Boston.

The cast is shaping up to be pretty great, so the question is going to be how well Elgin James writes and directs.  Not many people get so many talented actresses together for their first film, so the pressure is going to be on him to make them shine.  It also seems like the film will deal with some tough issues, so it will be interesting to see how much he pushes he envelope.

“The Honolulu Adviser” recently chatted with Bethany Hamilton regarding the film Soul Surfer (based on her life) and how AnnaSophia Robb plays her in the movie. Bethany says “I’m so grateful and thankful to have her a part of the movie!”
AnnaSophia herself admitted that the role was demanding. “There have been a lot of difficulties, just physically,” she revealed to the newspaper during a break in filming. “There are challenges.”
Surfing has become a potent distraction for the young actress. She even loves the way it beats up on her — from the bruises on her hips to the purple mark on her knee that won’t go away to the collisions with her board.
“I have a cut on my leg from the skeg and I love it,” she said. “I hope it scars.”
Bethany revealed that it was weird to have a movie made about her life. “I’m not that into being famous so I think I might get more famous after this. That’s been a challenge to deal with.”
But she admits that AnnaSophia is talented. “She works hard for the roles. I didn’t realize how much actors had to put into their job.“
