Angelica Bridges - Biography |
|
|
|
Angelica Bridges was born November
20, in the small town of Harrisonville, Missouri. A small-town girl,
Angelica was a tomboy throughout her childhood, preferring horseback
riding and fishing rather than playing dress-up. If she did play dress-up,
it was in dance outfits while taking dance lessons since the age of 3.
Dreaming of someday becoming a star, Angelica started out in media with
radio commercials and voice-overs.
The 12-year-old ambitious lass headed to Kansas City, Missouri, to enter a
talent search held by NBC. Angelica may never have needed her looks to
succeed (her prior experience was limited to radio), but now her looks and
talent got her to the next level: she was among the 20 to sign a contract
for future assignments.
Angelica began modeling at 14, and even appeared on the cover of Teen
Magazine and was crowned "Miss Missouri Teen" at 16. After having tried
her hand at music after high school (Angelica was lead singer of a band,
which performed at the "Shanghai TV Festival"), Angelica pursued modeling
more intensively. While performing in Universal Studios, the founder of
the Elite Modeling Agency caught eye of 1992's "California Young Miss
America", and signed her to become an Elite model.
Moving from radio to television, Angelica showed off her model body in
television commercials for products such as Diet Coke, Pontiac, Toyota,
Doritos (pre-Ali Landry), Hanes, IBM, Bally's, Pepsi, American Express (as
a modern-day Ginger Rogers), and most notably, Brut Cologne, as Troy
Aikman's girlfriend. Later Angelica was also known as the "Ultress Girl",
having signed a 2-year contract with Clairol.
After appearing on television in a string of commercials and gracing
several magazine covers, Angelica broke into acting with a recurring role
on the soap opera Days of Our Lives, in 1996. The green-eyed redhead
already had a role in the 1995 comedy California Heat on her resume.
Television guest-appearances began to pour Angelica's way, such as on
Night Stand, NYPD Blue, Cybill, Silk Stalkings, and Conan (as Red Sonja).
In 1997, Angelica did her requisite Baywatch duty, as Lieutenant Taylor
Walsh on the T&A series. Her Baywatch gig didn't last long, and Angelica
continued to do the television rounds, with a recurring role as Omegis in
Mortal Kombat: Conquest, and appearances on Pamela Lee's V.I.P., and the
comedies Suddenly Susan and That '70s Show.
In 1999, the model/actress was cast in a bit part in the film, Mystery
Men, and was then seen in the films Tomcats, Do It For Uncle Manny and The
Month of August.
Angelica currently lives in Agoura Hills, California with husband Sheldon
Souray and their daughter Valentina Raine Souray.
In 2005, Bridges starred as "Stacy" in a popular television commercial for
Geico, helping Tony Little spoof himself in a take-off on his commercials
for exercise equipment.
In June 2006 Bridges starred as "Sammi" in the English independent movie
called Perfect Woman produced by Olympus Productions Limited. |

Angelica Bridges - Personal Quotes |

|
|
"On my first day of work, I
had to revive Michael Bergin. It was also his first week on the
programme and he wasn't used to getting mouth-to-mouth. I was really
into character, my lips were on his and I was blowing while trying
to remember everything from CPR class. Then, all of a sudden, this
fool starts puckering his lips and kissing me." - on her first day
on Baywatch
“I’ve been asked before if my butt was real, and of course it is. I
guess it’s just so round and perky for someone so tiny.” |
