Rebecca Romijn has quickly
established herself in Hollywood with roles in a number of prominent films.
With just as much comic timing as beauty, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos made the
transition from model to actress look easy. After a memorable stint on the
NBC sitcom Just Shoot Me, she parlayed her previous small roles in Dirty
Work (1998) and Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) into a
full-fledged movie career.
She most recently co-starred in the hyped action sequel X2 which opened in
93 territories and has grossed over $400,000,000 to date. Variety said of
her performance, "She's not really fair to the other actors, in that she
effortlessly steals every scene she's in just by standing around in her
blue-hued altogether. When her aptly named character Mystique takes control
of the action, actress really turns it on, morphing from one identity to the
next more frequently, and much more quickly, than Cher changes costumes
during a concert."

Rebecca Romijn's Birthday |
Rebecca Romijn (pronounced Romaine, like the lettuce) was born on November
6, 1972, in Berkeley, California. Her father was Dutch-born and worked as a
custom-furniture maker; her mother was American-born, of Dutch descent, and
was an English teacher. Rebecca attended Berkeley High School where her
nickname was the Jolly Blond Giant, then she attended the University of
California at Santa Cruz where she majored in Music, but left in 1995.

Rebecca Romijn as Actress |
|
In
the fall of 1997, Romijn-Stamos made her small-screen debut as David
Schwimmer's outrageously sloppy girlfriend on NBC's Friends. Shortly
afterward, she tried out to replace Daisy Fuentes as the host of MTV's House
of Style, but bombed the audition. Romijn-Stamos, who as a child fantasized
about becoming an anchorwoman, boldly called the producer from a pay phone
to petition for the job. Impressed by her moxie, the station hired her for
the two-year gig.
The burgeoning actress graduated to movies as the bearded lady in Bob
Saget's Dirty Work (1998), before modeling lingerie for Mike Myers in Austin
Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999). She then returned to television to
play David Spade's wife on Just Shoot Me in the fall of 1999. Originally
hired to appear in three episodes, Romijn-Stamos was such a big hit that
producers asked her to return later in the season. Branching out from
comedy, Romijn-Stamos portrayed Hugh Hefner's ex-wife, playmate Kimberly
Hefner, in the television drama Hefner: Unauthorized (1999). While
Rollerball was maligned by critics and Femme Fatale had a mixed reception,
Romijn-Stamos returned to the favor of audiences and critics in the 2003
sequel X2: X-Men United with a much meatier role for Mystique than the first
film. 2004 found the actress sticking with Marvel comic adaptations as she
costarred opposite Thomas Jane in The Punisher.

Even though
the 2006 MTV Movie Awards air this Thursday, they were held this past
Saturday since aparently, MTV isn't much for the whole "live" thing. Not
much to report really. No wardrobe mulfunctions, or see-through dresses
to speak of, and definitely no Jessica Alba nipple slip like at last
year's show.
Still, there were a lot of hotties in attendance, inlcuding host Jessica
Alba, of course, along with performer Christina Aguilera, and others
like Jessica Simpson, Kate Beckinsale, Eva Mendes, Sandra Bullock, Famke
Janssen, Rebecca Romijn and Rosario Dawson. To name just a few. |

Rebecca Romijn Likes her Sex Kinky and
Public |
Celebrities are pretty easy to fantasize about, especially when they
look like Rebecca Romijn, but it gets so much better when they start
talking about how they're into kinky sex. According to Life Style Extra
In an interview with The U.K.'s News of the World, Romijn dished on her
favourite sexual fantasies, and turn ons.
I love to be nude and I love sex. Being a dominatrix in the bedroom, sex
in cars and in public places all turn me on. And I love fantasising
about being naked on an island with lots of other naked people.
So how come there's no Rebecca Romijn sex tape? We have to suffer
through Paris Hilton's piece of crap, night-vision video, but we can't
get a tape of Rebecca Romijn and her kinky sex life? What the hell is
that! That just isn't fair.
