The former Playmate played Shauni McClain on Baywatch, a role that was the outcome of her largest investment: a breast enlargement in 1988. Since she jumped topless out of a cake in Under Siege (1992), she has been trying to keep her clothes on.
That is something that didn't help her bank account but did make her a more credible actress. It took her eight years and movies like Bordello of Blood but she is finally getting mainstream work. In The Librarians she even plays opposite Burt Reynolds. "I consider it a weakness to look down on the things you did before. Those where parts my acting coach paid for. I think it is easier to stay stuck in that world, to be a actress only because you have a body you can show off and make money of it. I have done a lot to become the actress I am today. Someone asked me the other day if I wasn't grateful for my break into the main stream work. I thought to myself: honey, I've been working really hard for this and being grateful is the last thing on my mind. I earned this!"
