Has she quit?

Don't know, what I do know is that she isn't Japanese, I don't remmeber her nationality but, why was the category moved to japanese voice actors?

She was moved to Japanese voice actors probably because she did the voices for several Japanese Anime--12.227.182.149 10:45, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

• Since she's a dub VA, I changed the category...Ranma9617

And since when was she popular with anime fandom? I seem to remember that she was regarded as a self-important, self-promoting, attention whore. "Infamous" would be a better term. Izuko 12:42, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Well, in anime fandom, people either really liked her or really hated her (I'm in the former category, but then again, I've been a fan of hers from even before she did the anime girl schtick). The views were about half and half. Yes she is basically a celebrity who also happens to be an anime fangirl, she just had more connections and pull to live a life that, face it, many fangirls would like to live. -EmiOfBrie 23:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

I'd hardly say the views were half and half. Maybe she did better with those who knew her before she appointed herself, but with most of the people I knew, she didn't exactly win many friends.Izuko 00:13, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

I was a fan of hers back in the day when I was still an anime-head. I really never found or read about anyone who disliked her. Maybe I just wasn't looking in the right places. Everyone who met her really liked her. It's too bad she's gone... I'm interested in knowing what she's been up to. 12.155.207.2 16:17, 8 August 2007 (UTC)Drew D.

[edit] Contradictions

[edit] date of birth

From the article:

born Paula Apollo Anne Scharf on February 16, 1970

from IMDB:

Date of birth (location)

16 February 1967

So, what is it then? Cite?

[edit] recent years

From the article:

Apollo Smile has seemingly moved away from the "anime girl" role she created for herself, seeking small but more conventional film and television roles

from IMDB there is a list of TV episodes and video games only. Not much evidence of films there. Nothing since 2004 either.
