Krista Allen aka Krista biography

Real biography: Krista Allen is a vivacious American actress who took the hit-the-ground-running approach to making it in Hollywood.

Life Story

Raised in Texas by her Portuguese-American mother and Irish-American father, Krista was an education major at Austin Community College before deciding to skip town for Los Angeles and an acting career. Before long, she had used her stunning looks (and a willingness to show them off) to land the title role in Emmanuelle in Space: First Contact. That was such an intergalactic success, Krista went on to film seven more Emmanuelle sequels (beat that, Stallone).With space sex out of her (solar) system, Krista went on to appear in 41 episodes of Days of Our Lives, and then, as if required by the laws of hot-girl nature, she played lifeguard Jenna Avid on 27 episodes of Baywatch ((Pamela Anderson, Brooke Burns, Yasmine Bleeth, Gena Lee Nolin, Nicole Eggert, Carmen Electra, Donna D’Errico). Krista’s undeniable sexiness has also won her small but memorable parts in big TV shows and movies, including The X Files (she played a virtual reality babe), Liar Liar (she was the Busty Woman in Elevator) and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (name in credits: Pretty Woman). It was on Confessions (Drew Barrymore, Maggie Gyllenhaal) where Krista met actor-director George Clooney, whom she would go on to date for two years.Coming up, Krista will be keeping busy with several not-quite-Oscar-level productions, like Held Up, Feast 2: Sloppy Seconds and Business Class, and she’ll put some work into promoting her own line of T-shirts, called SuperEXcellent. Funny, but we’d give her the same name.
