Crissy. Chabert lives in Southern California, where she moved with her
family in 1994 when she began work on Party of Five. In 1998, she stated,
"Yes, I am a Christian. Jesus is the center of my life and I give God the
glory for everything, for all my success" and has expressed displeasure

Chabert made her start as young Cosette in Les Misérables on Broadway.
Chabert was a member of the Broadway Kids which included Christy Carlson

play the role of "Young Lily" in the movie Return to the Blue Lagoon
(1991), but bailed out for unknown reasons. Chabert became famous
worldwide for her role as Claudia Salinger in the TV drama Party of Five,
"I had to go through everything on that show—my first kiss, my first bra.
I was 11 when it started," she said. She also gained fame for her
portrayal of Penny Robinson in the 1998 movie based on the 1960s TV show
Lost in Space.
Since 1998, she has been the voice of Eliza Thornberry in the animated
series The Wild Thornberrys; she also voiced Eliza in two Wild Thornberrys
movies, The Wild Thornberrys Movie (2002) and Rugrats Go Wild! (2003). She
also provided the voice of Meg Griffin for the first production season of
the animated sitcom Family Guy (1999), after which Mila Kunis took over
the role. Chabert also had a role in The Brooke Ellison Story, a
made-for-TV movie produced by Christopher Reeve, in which she played
Brooke Ellison, based upon a real-life quadriplegic woman who overcame
many obstacles to graduate from Harvard. She also starred in Daddy Day
Care (2003), as Gretchen in Mean Girls (2004) and the made for TV movie
Hello Sister, Goodbye Life (2006) on ABC Family. She appeared in a 2006
remake of the classic horror movie Black Christmas. She also performed the
voice of Princess Elise from the game Sonic the Hedgehog for the PS3 and
Xbox 360. She will also provide Gwen Stacy's voice in the upcoming The
Spectacular Spider-Man animated show, set to debut in 2008.
Chabert won the 2005 MTV Movie Award for Best On-Screen Team for Mean
Girls, shared with Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, and Amanda Seyfried. She
won both the 1997 and 1998 Hollywood Reporter's Annual YoungStar Award for
Best Performance by a Young Actress in a Drama TV Series for Party of
Five, and had been nominated three other times for work 1999-2000. The
YoungStar awards honor the best film, TV and music performances made
exclusively by 6 to 18 year olds and are voted on by the Hollywood
Reporter readers.
In 2007, Chabert starred in the FOX comedy pilot The Hot Years, which
revolved around the lives of four female friends who live together. The
pilot was not ordered to series by FOX. Chabert was featured as cover girl
of the January 2007 issue of Maxim. |
