Has different color eyes: right eye is half green and half brown and left eye is green. This condition is known as Heterochromia.
The producers of Saved by the Bell (1989) created the role of Jessie Spano for her when they could not choose between her and Tiffani Thiessen for the role of Kelly Kapowski.
Ever since those reviews for Showgirls (1995), it’s like I was that woman in “The Scarlet Letter”. Except that instead of having to wear the letter “A” for adulteress, I was condemned to wear an “S” for “showgirl”.
[on making Roger Dodger (2002)] I really loved it. On the set, it was like being part of a real family. Everybody was there because they wanted to be and not because of some paycheck – there were no dressing rooms or big trailers; you’d get ready in a bathroom. Here’s this $2-million movie that could have gone nowhere or everywhere. But it’s one of the most special experiences that I’ve ever had. I want more similar experiences. I’m not “Showgirl” – that’s the point!
