Biography

Delfino was nicknamed "Majandra" by her elder sister, Marieh, who is also an actress. Marieh couldn't pronounce her real name, and the nickname stuck.[1] She is half-Cuban and half-Venezuelan.^[1]
Delfino was always more of a musician than an actress, and since the termination of ''Roswell'' back in 2002, she has refocused herself on her music, releasing the critically acclaimed 2001 album ''The Sicks'' on her own label, Dripfeed, without radio or television airplay.
She has also received attention in France, through her duet with French chanteuse (singer) RoBERT, titled "Le Prince Bleu D'Arthelius" in which she sings both in English and French.
Tarte was released April 23, 2007 through her official website http://www.majandra.com/ and Amazon.com. It contains 11 tracks and was released through her own record company Red velvet Cake Records. There are samples of three songs on her official website and her MySpace.
She starred in ''Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth'', which was made before ''Scary Movie'' but did not receive major cinematic release. She has also been in ''Reeseville'', ''Celeste in the City'', ''The Tony Danza Show'', and ''R.S.V.P.'', with Jason Mewes (of ''Dogma'' fame) and Glenn Quinn (of ''Angel''). Her latest film State's Evidence covers the controversial topic of violence in schools. Her masterful performance of Trudi was her darkest dramatic role to date.
Delfino was previously in a relationship with her ''Roswell'' costar, Brendan Fehr. She is currently dating Devon Gummersall (of ''My So-Called Life'' fame) and who also played her cousin, Sean Deluca on Roswell.
In May 2007, Majandra announced that she would be marrying beau Devon Gummersall in October.
