celebrities - Jaime Pressly

Jaime Pressly

Jaime Elizabeth Pressly (born July 30, 1977) is an American model and actress.

Pressly was born in Kinston, North Carolina, USA to James Liston Pressly and Brenda Sue Smith. Her mother was a classical dance instructor which lead to Pressly's studying of gymnastics and dancing in her youth which continued for 11 years. By the time she was 14, she was already the spokesperson for her modeling agency, International Cover Model Search and had begun to gain recognition for modeling both in the United States as well as in Italy and Japan. Pressly had herself legally emancipated from her parents at the age of 15.

Pressly worked as Drew Barrymore's body double in the film Poison Ivy. As a result, she was offered the lead in the 1997 sequel, Poison Ivy: The New Seduction.

Pressly's first real taste of success came in 1999, when she was cast as the promiscuous dancer Audrey on the television show, Jack and Jill.

In 2001 she was made the new spokesmodel for Liz Claiborne Cosmetics and its fragrance Lucky You.

Pressly also starred in Poor White Trash playing scheming gold-digger Sandy Lake. Poor White Trash was written by Michael Addis and Tony Urban and plays frequently on Comedy Central. It was named one of the top 10 overlooked films of 2001 by Reel.com.

Pressly is currently part of the cast of the NBC sitcom My Name is Earl.

Outside of acting, Pressly has posed nude for the March 1998 and February 2004 issues of Playboy and performed with The Pussycat Dolls.

One persistent rumor is that Pressly married a man named Brodie Mitchell in 1998. Pressly, who has never married, has stated she has heard of Mitchell but does not know him. Mitchell apparently has made enough claims about being married to Pressly that some sources have reported it as fact.

celebrities - Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer Joanne Aniston (born February 11, 1969 in Sherman Oaks, California, USA) is an American-born actress of Greek, Scottish, English and Italian descent, perhaps best-known for playing Rachel Green on the television sitcom Friends, and her much-publisized marriage to Brad Pitt.

 

Personal Life

Aniston is the daughter of John Aniston (originally Yannis Anastasakis) and his wife Nancy Dow. Her father, who was born in Greece (he Americanized his last name to "Aniston" before Jennifer's birth), is an actor best known for his role on the soap opera Days of Our Lives. Jennifer Aniston's godfather is actor Telly Savalas, John Aniston's best friend. Jennifer Aniston spent much of her childhood in New York, where her father won a role in the soap opera Love of Life and later Search for Tomorrow. In 1985, the family moved to Los Angeles when John Aniston started on Days of Our Lives. Aniston's mother, from whom she is now estranged, is an actress of half Scottish, as well as English and Italian descent; through her, Jennifer is a direct descendant of the royal House of Stuart of Scotland.

Aniston previously dated Adam Duritz and Tate Donovan in low-profile relationships. Her pairing with actor Brad Pitt was very high-profile in the media. She married Pitt on July 29, 2000, in a Malibu wedding. They separated on January 7, 2005, and Aniston officially filed for divorce on March 25, 2005.

On August 25, 2005, David Hesterbey was arrested for trespassing after allegedly entering Aniston's Malibu home.

In November 2005, Aniston was named GQ Magazine's Woman of the Year.

She is currently dating actor Vince Vaughn.

 

Acting Career

Aniston as "Woman of the Year", on the cover of GQ MagazineAttending Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts during 1987, Aniston was a member of the drama club. Her desire to become an actress grew as she worked in off-Broadway productions such as For Dear Life and Dancing on Checker's Grave. She moved to Hollywood and appeared in her first television roles in 1990, starring as a regular on the short-lived series Molloy and in the TV movie Camp Cucamonga. She also co-starred in the short-lived Ferris Bueller the same year, a television adaptation of the 1986 teen movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off (it barely lasted a season). Aniston then starred in two more failed sitcoms, The Edge and Muddling Through and guest-starring on shows such as Quantum Leap, Herman's Head, and Burke's Law. After this string of flops, especially her appearance in the critically-derided horror movie Leprechaun, Aniston seriously considered giving up acting, until a script for a new sitcom on NBC's 1994-1995 fall line-up came her way.

In 1994, the producers of the new NBC show called Friends originally wanted Aniston to audition for the role of Monica Geller, but she persuaded them that the role of Rachel Green was more suited to her character. She played the character until the show ended in 2004.
