Jaime Pressly was born in Kinston, North Carolina,
on July 30th, 1977. The natural beauty began performing
as a professional gymnast and dancer. Her classical
dance instructor mother coached a young Jaime, who continued
to practice gymnastics for 11 years.
Although a trained dancer and gymnast, Jaime broke
through as a model. By the time she was 13, her recognition
was beginning to grow internationally. Appearing on
the cover of Teen Magazine, Jaime also took to the world
with modeling work in Italy and Japan.
At the age of 15, the precocious teen legally emancipated
from her parents, and began to appear behind movie cameras.
She made her big screen debut in the 1997 film, Poison
Ivy: New Seduction; she was offered the role after appearing
as Drew Barrymore's body double in the original Poison
Ivy film.
After her role as a prostitute in Poison Ivy, Jaime
appeared in the films Against the Law, The Journey:
Absolution and Can't Hardly Wait, where it's safe to
say that she stole the show from Jennifer Love Hewitt.
That same year, she appeared in the Jerry Springer film
Ringmaster, and was cast as C.J. Callum in Trash and
in Coyote Moon, as Dottie.
Jaime hit it big on the small screen in 1999, when
she was cast as promiscuous dancer Audrey on the hit
television show, Jack & Jill. While the only thing
that she has in common with her role is her love for
dance, Jaime is receiving recognition as one of the
Jack & Jill babes.
No stranger to television roles, Jaime appeared in
the television series Push, and has shared her knowledge
on the game show Hollywood Squares.
The Southern girl starred in the film Best Actress
(along with model Rachel Hunter); appeared in Poor White
Trash (although she is anything but); appeared as Cynthia
the Goddess in the comedy 100 Girls; and starred in
the thriller Pinata.
Currently married to Brodie Mitchell (sorry guys),
the model/actress recently became a new spokesmodel
for Liz Claiborne Cosmetics and the new fragrance "Lucky
You".
With a tattoo on her lower back of a blue Leo sign,
with "healthy, strong and brave" written in
Japanese, Jaime is only the next to prove that a beautiful
face and talent can also blossom into a lucrative film
career -- something Rachael Leigh Cook could have told
her.
Jaime can next be seen in The Adventures of Joe Dirt
(with David Spade); Tomcats (with Shannon Elizabeth);
and Ticker.
