Who Is The Actress In The Visit California 'What If' Commercial?

Let's face it. California is probably one of the best states in the entire U.S. There is so much to do, and it's all nearby. The demographic of the state makes both residents and visitors wonder, "what if?" As in, "what if I wanted to go to the beach and snowboarding on the same day?" Or "what if I want to visit a mountain top in the morning and then ride dune buggies in the afternoon?" You don't have to make these difficult decisions in California. That's precisely the idea behind the Visit California "What If" commercial.

The commercial follows a young actress throughout the Golden State as she points out all the incredible attractions it has to offer. The actress jumps from town to town, showcasing all the fun activities that are possible. From the bottom of Death Valley to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, this commercial proves you don't have to ask yourself these "what if" questions when you're visiting California. The commercial makes viewers wish they were the actress, even when swimming with mermaids at the Hotel del Coronado in San Diego.

So who is the actress in the Visit California 'What If' commercial?

Believe it or not, the actress in the ad isn't even from California! If you haven't figured it out by now, it's none other than Noëlle Renée Bercy from New Orleans. She got started in acting after successfully auditioning for the New Orleans Center of Creative Arts. Since then, she has appeared in a handful of TV series, including "King's Bachelor's Pad" and "Cloak & Dagger," as well as short films such as 2020's "Signs" and "The Priest," per IMDb.

Now she's showing the rest of the world how Californians like to live in the new Visit California 'What If' commercial. This is an excellent role for her, as her high-energy personality perfectly represents the go-go-go mindset that most Californians have. Every city she visits increases her excitement, which should be a testament to how much California has to offer. Whatever you want to do in the state, Noëlle makes the viewer feel like they are missing out.
