| Biography:
Gena Lee Nolin.
Gena Lee Nolin was born November 29, 1971 in the intellectual capital of the
Midwest, Duluth, Minnesota. When she was a senior in high school her family
moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, where not too long after, Gena Lee entered a
beauty pageant and earned herself the title of "Ms. Las Vegas." From there,
she had the honor of winning the Look of the Year award from bigwig agents,
the Elite and Ford modeling agencies, as well as the "Miss Barbizon USA"
title (yeah, we don't know either).
Keep in mind that all this success had come before she was allowed to watch
an R-rated film. After Gena made all the male teachers at her school very
sad by graduating, she went on to Los Angeles to pursue a job in acting and
study interior design at Santa Monica College. At first, the only acting job
she could find was playing a waitress in local diners -- only there were no
cameras or audiences, and she really was a waitress.
In 1993, she made us angry by marrying a man named Greg Falman, whom she met
while handing brochures out at a convention. One year later, in 1994, Miss
Nolin found destiny in the form of an ad in a local paper, for a job that
required being a Barker Beauty, on every unemployable's favorite daytime
game show, The Price is Right.
Soon after that, she landed a part on the soap opera, The Young & The
Restless, where she stretched her craft to the limit portraying a young
blonde model named Sandy. Lifeguards are like mommies who come and save us
when we're in trouble, except this lifeguard is really hot and it's okay to
have sex with her. She was able to successfully fill the artistic and
dramatic void left in the wake of Pamela Anderson's departure from Baywatch.
She can also be seen in the new series, Sheena, and as host of the USA
Network's ground shaking journalistic epic, The 50th Anniversary of the
Bikini. |
