Cristina Valenzuela, also known as Cristina Vee, is an American voice actress.
She caught the attention of dubbing studio Bang Zoom! Entertainment from a voice acting panel at Anime Expo 2004, an anime convention in Southern California. Since then, [[Ascended Fanboy|Bang Zoom! has continually invited Valenzuela to do voice work in anime, foreign films, and commercials.]] She has appeared at conventions throughout the United States where she sometimes sings live concerts (this apparently landed her [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRfywEX2LDQ the live action role as ASOS Brigade leader] in ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya (Light Novel)|Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' season 2). Cristina's also one of the co-hosts of [http://www.animeolympics.net/ Anime Olympics] and season 2 of [http://goanimetv.com/ Anime TV]. She made up a dub of a ''[[Blaz Blue]]'' [[Blazen (Webcomic)|webcomic]], voicing... who else? Noel (the video has been made private). As you can guess, she's [[One of Us]]. Recently she has been working as the voice director of ''[[Skullgirls (Video Game)|Skullgirls]]''.
Despite her new start, she quickly racked up popularity amongst the new age of voice actors, making her a [[Ensemble Darkhorse|fan favorite]] and most of her appearances in many projects will be met with [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|much rejoicing]]. Yes, that's right, in a quick moment, she is starting to rival the popularities of accomplished ones, the likes of [[Johnny Yong Bosch]], [[Michelle Ruff]], [[Stephanie Sheh]], [[Yuri Lowenthal]], etc... (although still a long way to go until she reaches the memetic status of [[Crispin Freeman (Creator)|Crispin Freeman]] or [[Steve Blum]])

** [http://www.formspring.me/cristinavee/q/184769319220053390 According to her], she feels that she is typecast into the "[[Tastes Like Diabetes|sweet girl]]."
*** Her roles as Noel's clone and [[Super-Powered Evil Side]] (Nu/Lambda and Mu, repectively) subvert this, as one is mostly [[Creepy Monotone|deadpan]], while the other is a bit more...[[Not So Stoic|aggressive]] in her monotony.
*** And of course Homura is also a subversion. She sounds more deadpan and monotone like Nu, until some of her tender side got revealed.
*** [[Skullgirls|Cerebella]] is yet another subversion, but then again she was in charge of voice acting in ''Skullgirls'', so this may have been a conscious choice on her part..
* [[Relationship Voice Actor]]: Cristina has a
* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: She made a Twitter comment that she ''wasn't'' in the ''Madoka'' dub (which was later deleted)
** Subverted that in her defense, it was because she ''wasn't cast yet'' when the first three characters of the dub (Madoka, Kyubey, and Sayaka) were announced. The fans took that statement and assumed she won't be in the cast.
* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: This is the trope that defines her.
