Hollywood's Tragic Blonde
Hollywood Top Models in Movies
Tyra Banks- Big Break: The reality TV diva landed her first major film role in '95's 'Higher Learning.' Body of Work: Scorned aspiring models from her show will be disappointed to hear Banks' death scene in 'Halloween: Resurrection' was left on the cutting room floor. She also starred in 'Coyote Ugly' and 'Love & Basketball.'
Cameron Diaz- Big Break: The California girl had us at "Smokin'!" as Jim Carrey's crush in her first film, '94's 'The Mask.' Body of Work: Cam has proved that hot-bodied babes can be funny too -- in 'My Best Friend's Wedding' and 'There's Something AboutMary' -- and we even loved her homely, as she was in 'Being John Malkovich.'
Famke Janssen- Big Break: She was Xenia Onatopp, the Bond girl with deadly thighs in 'GoldenEye.' Body of Work: Next to her star-making turn as Jean Grey in the 'X-Men' series, most of her film work pales by comparison ('Hide and Seek,' 'I Spy'). But thePhoenix is about to rise again: She'll soon star in a cop drama for NBC.
Maggie Q- Big Break: That'd be 'M:i:III,' in which she looked drop-dead gorgeous in a gown AND made bad guys drop dead. Body of Work: A martial-arts star in China despite being Vietnamese-American, Maggie's finally getting some Hollywood action: This past summer she co-starred with Bruce Willis in 'Live Free or Die Hard.'
Heidi Klum- Big Break: The woman known as "The Body" had her first meaty role as a hairdresser in the 2001 Josh Hartnett flick 'Blow Dry.' Body of Work: She played a giantess named Brunhilda in '04's 'Ella Enchanted' and Toothless Hockey Player No. 1 on an episode of 'Malcolm in the Middle.' She's currently busy popping out baby Seals.
Bridget Moynahan- Big Break: After small roles (she was Big's fiancee on 'Sex and the City'), Bridget finally flexed her acting chops with heavyweights Colin Farrell and Al Pacino in the '03 thriller 'The Recruit.' Body of Work: Her current big production? A baby, fathered by ex Tom Brady (who now dates supermodel Gisele Bundchen
Milla Jovovich- Big Break: The Russian beauty shot to moviegoers' attention with '97's 'The Fifth Element,' directed by then-lover Luc Besson. Body of Work: Her career highlights are the 'Resident Evil' movies she's led (the third, 'Extinction,' opens this week). Hmm ... model in tight leather -- who'da thunk that would work?
Famke Janssen- Big Break: She was Xenia Onatopp, the Bond girl with deadly thighs in 'GoldenEye.' Body of Work: Next to her star-making turn as Jean Grey in the 'X-Men' series, most of her film work pales by comparison ('Hide and Seek,' 'I Spy'). But thePhoenix is about to rise again: She'll soon star in a cop drama for NBC.
Elle MacPherson- Big Break: She packed on 30 pounds and delivered a stellar (if mostly nude) performance opposite Hugh Grant in '94's 'Sirens.' Body of Work: She's showed impressive range, tackling roles in comedy ('Jane Eyre,' 'If Lucy Fell,' 'Friends'), drama ('The Edge') and the awfully unclassifiable ('Batman and Robin').
Ali Larter- Big Break: She walked into our hearts as whipped-cream-bikini-sporting cheerleader in '99's 'Varsity Blues.' Body of Work: She's starred in teen hits like 'Drive Me Crazy' and 'Final Destination.' But her role on NBC's hit show 'Heroes' is the cherry on top of the whipped cream bikini that is her career.
