Regina Hall Biography

Regina%20Hall Regina Hall Biography

Pretty and versatile African-American actress Regina Hall made her breakthrough as Candy, a stripper in “The Best Man” (1999) and gave an unforgettable comedic performance in the “Scary Movie” series, but proved more than just a stripper or scream queen with a varied and challenging list of credits. Born and raised in Washington, DC, Hall began her career with a recurring role on the NYC-shot ABC soap “Loving”. In 1997 she had an early primetime credit on Fox’s “New York Undercover”, also filmed in New York.

Hall made her feature debut with small roles in the 1998 independents “Too Tired to Die” and “Tears of a Clown” before landing her role in “The Best Man” and launching her career. She lent grace and understanding to her portrayal as Lena, the prissy sister of basketball star Monica (Lathan) in Gina Prince-Bythewood’s “Love and Basketball” in 2000, the same year she took her comedic abilities to over-the-top heights as a very vocal victim of a serial slasher in the spoof “Scary Movie”. Hall’s take on a woman getting far too involved in a screening of “Shakespeare in Love” was arguably the film’s high point, and the scene certainly resonated with audiences, making her something of a cult hero. The actress reprised the role to less notable effect in the 2001 follow-up “Scary Movie 2″ and the 2003 sequel “Scary Movie 3.”

Maggie Gyllenhaal Biography

Maggie%20Gyllenhaal Maggie Gyllenhaal Biography
A versitile and intriguing actress, whose penetrating acting and off-kilter beauty were initially relegated to supporting roles, Maggie Gyllenhaal broke out to the forefront with the edgy S&M themed drama “Secretary.” Despite this being her first starring role, she did not spend much time in the trenches, having a relatively painless decade paying dues before getting her first major role at the age of 24.

Having grown up in a family of entertainment professionals, it is no surprise Gyllenhaal decided to pursue a career in acting. Her mother is successful screenwriter Naomi Foner (Oscar nominated for her 1988 screenplay for “Running on Empty,” starring River Phoenix) and her father is accomplished film and television director Stephen Gyllenhaal (nominated for an Emmy for 1990 telepic “A Killing in a Small Town” and directed feature “Losing Isaiah” in 1995). Adding a healthy dose of sibling rivalry to go along with these parental expectations, her brother is successful actor Jake Gyllenhaal (“Moonlight Mile” 2002).

Sienna Guillory Biography

Sienna%20Guillory Sienna Guillory Biography

Sienna Guillory (born May 31, 1975) is a British actress and model. She was named after the color â€˜â€™Siennaâ€™â€™. Though it is generally the trend for models to turn to acting, it was the other way round for her. Guillory had been acting since the age of 16, and it was quite by chance that she got her first modeling assignment at the age of 20.

Born in Fulham, London, Guillory is the daughter of Cuban-born guitarist Isaac Guillory and Victoria Guillory, she has two sisters, Ellie and Jace, and a brother Jacob. They grew up in a traditional Bohemian household. Having grown up being surrounded by performers, it is quite natural that she took up acting. Guillory made her screen debut in the UK TV series Riders. Though the role was small, she made her mark. Her performance landed her in another small role in the miniseries The Buccaneers. Guillory took a short break from acting in 1995, to continue with studies. She had to even work as a waitress to fund her studies. At the age of 21, Guillory had returned after an independent film in Russia with a friend, a ballerina who aspired to become a model. She accompanied her to a modeling agency, Select Models, which signed both of them on the spot, instead. Guillory became one of Britain’s most sought after models in the four years she had been modelling. In 2000, Esquire magazine voted Guillory to be Britain’s Most Eligible Woman. And in 2002, she was number 89 on Maxim’s list of Top 100 Sexiest Women. Still, it was acting she was interested in. Hence, to study the art more closely, she went to study at the New World School of the Dramatic Arts, as well as at the Paris Conservatoire. By the time she had returned to the screen in 2000 with a thriller, Sorted, she had developed a unique style of her own. Soon, she took to Hollywood, with movies like The Time Machine and Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Sienna is still apprehensive to Hollywood. She has learnt fickle producers and directors can be in Tinseltown. “That experience of Hollywood taught me a lot”, says Guillory “but I still feel like I’m a Hollywood virgin.”

Carla Gugino Biography

Carla%20Gugino Carla Gugino Biography

As a teenager, Italianate beauty Carla Gugino began a career as a fashion model but quickly became disillusion. At the suggestion of her aunt, TV spokesmodel Carol Merrill (of “Let’s Make a Deal” fame), she took an acting class with former soap star Gene Bua and became hooked, leading to her first screen role in the Shelley Long vehicle “Troop Beverly Hills” in 1989.

Born in Florida, Gugino relocated to California with her mother following her parents’ divorce and experienced an unorthodox, bohemian upbringing that encompassed frequent moves as well as a stint living in a teepee in Northern California. Despite her sojourn in the modeling world and her acting classes, Gugino was able to maintain her grades and was named valedictorian of her high school class. Rather than attend college, though, she opted to concentrate on her burgeoning acting career. In fall 1989, she joined the cast of the long-running primetime serial “Falcon Crest” (CBS), but the show was in its last throes and while the role gave her some stature, it did little to move her to the ranks of stardom. Gugino was next tapped to play the youthful incarnation of the title character (essayed by Winona Ryder) in “Welcome Home, Roxy Carmichael” (1990). Following supporting turns in the 1992 HBO abortion-themed drama “A Private Affair” and the 1993 big screen family drama “This Boy’s Life”, the actress landed her first film lead as Pauley Shore’s brideâ€”a farmer’s daughterâ€”in the comedy “Son-in-Law” (1993).

Vida Guerra Biography

Vida%20Guerra Vida Guerra Biography

Vida Guerra is a Cuban-American swimsuit model. Her first notable appearance was in a shoot for the U.S. edition of FHM magazine, and since then, she has modeled for many other men’s magazines, including Maxim. She often appears on Spanish television networks and is well known because of her large buttocks, which are usually accentuated in her photographs.

Born in Havana, Cuba, Vida Guerra moved with her family to the United States soon after, ending up in the town of Perth Amboy, New Jersey. In interviews Vida has said that she was teased because of the size of her derriere, which was rather large for someone of her otherwise small stature. Growing up she entered a couple of runway shows modeling swimwear, and appeared in a few music videos. She eventually became a loan officer.

Her modeling career originally began when she submitted some photos for the “Honey Next Door” section of FHM magazine, on the suggestion of an ex-boyfriend. The magazine later reported that following the submission, almost one-third of their mail was from readers demanding more photos of the five-foot-two girl. She was called back for more photo shoots and became “FHM’s Model of the Year” in 2004. Since then, she has been featured on the front cover as well as on the inside of many magazines, including DUB, Smooth, Escape, and Open Your Eyes (Abre Tu Ojos), and has made multiple appearances on several Spanish language television programs such as El Gordo y La Flaca (The Fat Man and the Skinny Woman). Vida has also become a staple in music videos, appearing in “Shake Your Tailfeather” (P. Diddy, Nelly and Murphy Lee, from the Bad Boys 2 soundtrack) and “The New Workout Plan” (Kanye West) among others. Additionally, she has appeared in Burger King’s Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch commercial, a couple of sketches on Chappelle’s Show, like the infamous “Piss On You” videos (spoofing the infamous R. Kelly sex tape), and also appeared in the film National Lampoon Presents: Dorm Daze II.
