The Melbourne rebel

Ruby Rose was born in Australia in 1986. As a teenager, she was already an emerging queer icon, with piercings, a punk attitude, and more tattoos than excuses.

MTV and the beginning of everything

She rose to fame in 2007 as a VJ for MTV Australia. Her mix of irreverence and charisma made her an instant phenomenon for the millennial generation.

A model beyond molds

She was the face of brands like Maybelline, Urban Decay, and Ralph Lauren. Her hypnotic androgyny broke the traditional beauty stereotypes of the industry.

'Orange Is the New Black' and the global explosion

The role that brought her international fame was Stella Carlin in 'Orange Is the New Black'. Fans adored her punk aesthetics and carefree vibes.

DJ, writer, director, and... superhero?

She's tried almost everything: electronic music, her own short films, and even writing a children’s book. Oh, and she was Batwoman... at least for one season.

'Batwoman': More drama off-camera

She starred in 'Batwoman' on CW, but left after one season due to injuries and tensions on set. She stated that the shooting was "toxic". The network denied it.

Hollywood and action

She acted in 'John Wick 2', 'xXx: Reactivated' ('xXx: Return of Xander Cage'), and 'The Meg'. Always armed, with intense looks and zero interest in soft or conventional roles.

LGBTQ+ icon with an open mic

Ruby has bluntly spoken about gender identity. She identifies as gender fluid, asserting that she feels neither male nor female.

Love, breakups, and headlines

She had relationships with models and artists like Jessica Origliasso (from The Veronicas). Her romantic life has always been a feast for the Australian tabloids.

A complicated health

In 2019, she underwent emergency surgery for a spinal injury that almost left her wheelchair-bound. She has also spoken openly about mental health and depression.

Where is Ruby now?

Having stepped back from the limelight, she lives between Los Angeles and Australia. She remains active on social networks, supports various causes, and chooses smaller, more personal projects.
