By Tess Farrand, Staff Writer
20-year-old Natasha Bure is a busy trying to make her own footprint on the entertainment industry. In February, Bure co-hosted the 27th Annual Movieguide® Awards on the Hallmark Channel with her mother, actress Candace Cameron Bure (FULLER HOUSE). March also was the month her first movie FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE opened in theaters. In a recent interview with FOX NEWS, Bure got candid about her gratitude for the way her parents raised her and other wisdom she gleaned from their example.
Bure recalled, “I really do owe the way that I am to my parents because I was raised in a pretty, I wouldn’t say strict household, but I would say, I was definitely guarded,and I had a lot of rules.” Bure’s parents, Candace Cameron and former professional Hockey player Valeri Bure, have been married for over 20 years and also have two sons, Lev and Maksim. The young starlet talked about her upbringing, stating, “I wasn’t given an overly excessive amount of freedom where I could do whatever I [wanted].” She added, “I think because of that, I don’t really get tempted too much in Hollywood.”
More than anything, Bure stressed the value of her mother’s example of working in the industry when it comes to her personal discernment. “She’s given me the typical talks, but I think more than anything, I’ve just witnessed a lot of her doings in the entertainment industry — as far as what she does and how she carries herself.”
Bure is also a popular YouTube star, with over 114,000 subscribers to her account and thousands of social media followers. Occasionally, Bure posts a photo nodding to her mother or other family members in humorous ways.
A Christian herself, Bure shared that she’s attracted to family and faith projects like FAITH, HOPE & LOVE. As for going forward with selecting projects with good values, Natasha Bure said, “there [are] always opportunities… as long as I’m sticking to what I believe in, and who I am, then I think that’s one of the most important things.”
