Cece's Fallen Angels Pilot (18+)
Corah Thomann for Celeste McKnight (Protagonist, Female Lead)
Celeste McKnight, known as Cece, is a fiercely independent and complex young woman, trapped between her dreams and the harsh realities of her life. At 22, she’s already seen more hardship than most—losing her father at a young age and spending her teenage years with a deep yearning for something more. Moving to Las Vegas in hopes of finding a connection to her late father, Celeste instead finds herself in a toxic relationship with Marcus Dickens, a famous model agent, who slowly chips away at her self-worth.
Celeste is the lead singer of the band Cece's Fallen Angels, and her voice is her most powerful weapon—raspy with a surprising amount of range, it’s raw, emotional, and undeniably captivating. She also plays lead guitar, adding another layer of complexity to her artistic identity. However, behind her musical talent is a woman who struggles with emotional distance, keeping people at arm's length due to years of trauma and heartbreak. Celeste often turns to alcohol as a coping mechanism, using it to numb the pain and silence the doubts that threaten to overwhelm her.
Though closed off and tough on the outside, Celeste is fiercely protective of those she loves and is capable of immense loyalty. Her pet cat, Theo, is her only consistent companion, offering her comfort in moments of solitude. As the band’s leader, Cece is driven by a need to prove herself, not just to the world, but to herself. But her journey is not just about fame—it’s about finding the strength to break free from her past, heal old wounds, and let others into her heart.

*affectionate, slightly sad* "You know, you’ve gotta be about the most spoiled cat in the world. Eggs and toast for breakfast, huh? ‘Cus we’re all outta your fancy cat food."
*stressed, anxious* "I don’t have time for one of your motivational speeches, Terry, my sister's coming in less than two hours and everything's...it's all a disaster."
