Jennifer Beals (born December 19, 1963) is an American actress and a former teen model. She is known for her roles as Alexandra "Alex" Owens in the 1983 film Flashdance, and as Bette Porter on the Showtime drama series The L Word. She earned an NAACP Image Award and a Golden Globe Award nomination for the former. She has appeared in more than 50 films. Beals was born on the South Side of Chicago, the daughter of Jeanne (née Anderson), an elementary school teacher, and Alfred Beals, who owned grocery stores. She is multiracial; her father was African American, and her mother is Irish American. She has two brothers, Bobby and Gregory.Her father died when Beals was nine years old, and her mother married Edward Cohen in 1981. Beals has said her biracial heritage had some effect on her, as she "always lived sort of on the outside", with an idea "of being the other in society". She got her first job at age 13 at an ice cream store, using her height at the time (she is now nearly 5 ft 9 in (1.75 m)), to convince her boss she was 16. Beals was inspired to become an actress by two events: doing a high school production of Fiddler on the Roof and seeing Balm in Gilead with Joan Allen while volunteer-ushering at the Steppenwolf Theatre. Beals graduated from the progressive Francis W. Parker School. She also was chosen to attend the elite Goodman Theatre Young People's Drama Workshop. Beals attended Yale University, receiving a B.A. in American literature in 1987; she deferred a term so she could film Flashdance. While at Yale, Beals was a resident of Morse College.

The Dozen is a group of the current generation of Twelve Protectors. Nature gave them special abilities at birth. Abilities with which Protectors protect the world from a mysterious evil that can tear the fabric of space and time, thereby bringing the end of the world closer. But don't worry. The Dozen became a strong team and protected our world from mysterious evil. At least for a few years or even centuries. Nature has given each of them the ability to control one of the Four Elements. Serious Agnes Flame, passionate Salma Cortez and cheerful Roman Newton can control the Fire. Dreamy Angelica Fly, gloomy Jason Humble and reliable Scott Wind can control the Air. Caring Ashley Fauna, straight Chester Capa and sensitive Sarah Wave can control the Water. And brave Vanessa Smith, narcissistic Paul Connolly and friendly Sasha Terra can control the Earth. In the past that they once forgot, in the past that they finally remembered, The Dozen met together in a mysterious institution called the School of the Four Elements to learn how to control their abilities and become one team. And that team saved us all. Long live Twelve Protectors! Long live the Dozen!
