Jayda Cheaves debuts acting skills at ‘Bid For Love’ movie premiere party

Jayda Cheaves at 'Bid For Love' premiere

Now that entrepreneur, influencer and business owner are checked off her list, Jayda Cheaves is marking off actress, too!

Cheaves recently held her pajama-themed viewing party for her movie debut “Bid For Love” and was joined by family and friends. “Bid For Love” is based upon a true story about a woman who ends up in prison due to her previous relationship. Once she gets out, she must go to a halfway house and start her new life. Cheaves’ character, Juvie, is her hothead, roommate in the halfway house.

In preparation for the role, Jayda initially tried a more traditional route toward getting ready, but things didn’t go as planned. “I actually went to acting class and it just wasn’t the vibe,” Cheaves said. “It was a lot of people in the class, and they were like I could do private sessions, and they told me I could just sit in for the sessions to just get the feel of how acting class would go, but I told my manager, ‘let’s leave. I think I could do it myself. I don’t want to sit in this class,’ and I kind of just sat in the mirror and coached myself how to really embody and get into the character. So, I really taught myself. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.”

Although Jayda didn’t get to meet the real-life Juvie, she did meet the woman on who the film was based on, and from paper to screen, everything was right on point. “I didn’t really go into detail with he as far as the script, but basically she was telling me it’s based on a true story and everything that happened in this film actually happened in real life. So, Juvie was actually somebody who she really met in the halfway house,” said Cheaves.

This role seems to be just the beginning of Cheaves acting career. “I really like acting,” Cheaves said. “It was something that I was naturally able to just latch on to and I see myself doing it more and more. Besides being an entrepreneur, acing might be the next thing that I’m really serious about.” So serious in fact, that she’s already received the script for another role and confirmed there will be a part two for “Bid For Love” Will she be in it? We will just have to wait and see!
