Heart revealed in an interview that she was invited to audition for the role of the secondary protagonist and socialite supermodel "Araminta Lee" by Kevin Kwan himself.
"...they asked if I was available to shoot, so yes, of course! And then they never came back… then again I became friends with Kevin Kwan after that" and then she added "...there is always a reason for everything."
Sadly, she did not get a call back after that but she was thankful for the opportunity.
