This talented comedienne and actress had a shaky start, working as a model and a dancer before breaking into the entertainment industry. She was the appealing young actress with whom 80s directors aspired to collaborate. Her luck seemed to have run out after ten years and several A-list films. She retreated from Hollywood for a while after a series of failed movie auditions and repeated dejection. Her career never really took off, despite the fact that she worked on several projects. Thanks to a well-publicized court case, she was soon cast in a few films and cable TV shows. Several media reports have detailed her antics, which include her attempts to crash parties and her frequent removal from shoots and films. She turned down several film offers, all of which went on to be critical and commercial successes. Despite the fact that her film career never quite reached the pinnacle of success, she is considered by many to be “a comeback waiting to happen.” She is currently pursuing her acting dreams and can be seen on shows such as “The Young and the Restless” and “Skating with the Stars.” Continue reading to learn more about this talented actor.
