 CNN.com - Meet the real 'Simone' - August 22, 2002
But Rachel Roberts, who plays the title character in "Simone," can finally tell the world she's a flesh-and-blood star, not a pixellated performer stitched together by some cyber-Frankenstein.
Roberts sneaked onto the set in wigs and other disguises and was known as "the stand-in" for Simone to much of the film crew, who thought she would be replaced in post-production by a digital actress.
After "Simone" leaves theaters, Roberts' name will be added to the credits when the film comes out on video, "so I'll be able to prove it was really me for posterity's sake," she said.

 Rachel Roberts : Fashion & Beauty
Early in her life, Rachel was a keen model, and her natural beauty helped her rise to the top of the Canadian fashion industry in record time as a youngster.
Rachel played the character of Simone, and quite plausibly too, though when you consider that she plays a computer-generated constuct, it's not exactly like she's up against stiff competition (Jar Jar Binks anyone?).
Playing a digital godess wasn't hard for Rachel, and her turn as an actress is impressive and perhaps we'll see more of her on the big screen in more demanding roles, rather than on the catwalk.

Rachel Roberts was born in Llanelli, Wales, on 20 September 1927, the daughter of the Revd.
Later that year Roberts was in the company of the revue At the Lyric (an apt title, for the show was staged at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith), and stayed for its West End transfer to the St. Martin's Theatre, where it was renamed Going To Town.
Roberts' final musical was undoubtedly her finest moment in musical theatre, as the heroine of Lionel Bart's grand hymn to Liverpool, Maggie May. The role of the lovable dockyard tart had been intended for Georgia Brown, who turned down the chance to play it.
