Karine Vanasse Instagram – Introducing our Summer 2024 cover star: Karine Vanasse! Since she last appeared in the pages of this magazine, Karine Vanasse has been busy adding to her many onscreen credits with the film Ru and the award-winning series Avant le Crash (Before the Crash). She has been hosting both the Canadian and the Quebec versions of the hit reality-TV series The Traitors and most recently travelled to Berlin and Senegal to film a documentary series that’s set to be released next spring. It’s obvious that she’s genuinely excited about this project, and she has relished the chance to connect with a fresh new wave of creators who don’t hold back when it comes to their art form. What excites her even more is that they work in a different industry from her. “It feels good to meet people who are real—who aren’t just following the crowd,” she says. “It’s not about extreme nonconformity; it’s simply about doing what you damn well please.” Read the interview in ELLE Canada’s Summer 2024 issue, on newsstands June 3.
