Esmé Bianco is an English model, actress and burlesque/cabaret performer.
Esmé was born in St Albans, Hertfordshire, in the United Kingdom. At 18 she moved to London to study for a degree in Drama and Theatre Arts at Goldsmiths College. Once in London, Esmé started to pursue a career in modeling, posing for lingerie label 'Agent Provocateur' in their 2003 campaign, and going on to record vocals for two tracks on their album Peep Show. While attending university, Esmé started performing in neo-burlesque and cabaret
shows, and has performed in them across the globe. Her signature show
was 'White Wedding' in which she burst out of a giant wedding cake.
Shoe designer Terry de Havilland, for whom Esmé has modeled, named a pair of his shoes after her.
Esmé has also posed for painters Christian Furr[1] and Peregrine Heathcote.[2]
In 2008 she became the spokesmodel for lingerie label 'The Modern Courtesan'.[3]
She also stars as "Joy" in the United Kingdom's 2011 and 2012 advertisements for JackpotJoy.com, alongside Barbara Windsor.

Acting
Feature films parts include independent British feature Burlesque Fairytales in which she stars as "Mother" in one of the tales, Bruce Dickinson's Chemical Wedding, 'The Big I Am' (in which she acts opposite Steven Berkoff) and Dead Man Running.
In October 2009, it was revealed that Bianco would appear as the character "Ros" in HBO's pay cable television series Game of Thrones, based on the international best-selling novel series A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.
