Bridgette Wilson
is stunningly beautiful. She quickly spalshed onto the Hollywood
scene, sweeping up roles and a more-than-famous significant
other (Pete Sampras).
Bridgette Wilson
was raised in Oregon. She had her sights set on stardom early,
and was awarded Miss Teen USA in 1990. But, she didn't want
to earn her fame through modeling, and set out the next year
for Hollywood, where she began acting classes as soon as she
got into town.
As many, many celebs
will painfully admit, Bridgette got her foot in the door through
the soaps, landing a role on Santa Barbara. Luckily, she ducked
out of soap operas and turned instead to the big screen. She
landed the role of Arnold Schwarzenneger's daughter in Last
Action Hero, a film that went on to decent box office success.
Her first significant
role was in the Adam Sandler comedy Billy Madison. Needless
to say, the film didn't garner much critical praise, but it
did help to give Bridgette a world of exposure, as the film
had a significant amount of success at the box office and enjoys
a healthy 'video-rental' life even now.
A number of other
roles followed, including Nixon and I Know What You Did Last
Summer (unfortunately, she was killed very early on). She made
a independent film Love Stinks, which was a very interesting
film, that put Bridgette in the role of absolute superbitch.
In her 'spare' time,
Bridgette is also an accomplished singer. She's quietly released
two albums, "Gimme a Kiss" and "I Only Want to
Be With You." She's also a fairly active humanitarian,
working with MADD, American Oceans Campaign, and in support
of AIDS prevention and treatment.
Unfortunately [guys],
she's married. She hitched tennis legend Pete Sampras. The two
got engaged right after Pete lost the French Open. She has taken
his last name, becoming Bridgette Wilson-Sampras.
Besides the song
and movie career, she is also an avid supported of MADD, American
Oceans Campaign, and several AIDS organizations
