He is not a star, although he has had leading roles on TV and even in a movie. However, the camera loves Leslie Bibb, and to her beauty she has added a humorous capacity that has come in handy to get various roles.

 

Leslie Louise Bibb was born in Bismark, North Dakota, USA, on November 17, 1974, although she grew up with her three older sisters and her mother in Nelson County, Virginia, and later in Richmond. All four studied at a Catholic girls’ school, St. Gertrude’s.

As a beautiful and slender girl that she was, her mother was under the illusion that she could be a model, so she sent the photo of her little girl to a request from the Elite Agency and the Oprah Winfrey television show . It was 1990, and at only 16 years old, Bibb convinced a jury that included Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista of her possibilities , establishing herself as the winner. Her new occupation allowed her to travel to Japan that summer. Back home, she finished her studies, and her idea was to go to the University of Virginia, living only by being a model did not quite convince mother and daughter. But after a semester, she Leslie thought that perhaps hers could be acting so she went to New York, and she combined her acting studies with William Esper with the work of a mannequin.

Let’s not fool ourselves, Leslie Bibb is a cannon girl, and so far her roles on TV and in movies have been rather minor, taking advantage of her undeniable attractiveness. What also happens is that the girl has a comic vision, which helps her laugh at herself, which has helped her to be in many comedies.

So Bibb got his start on the small screen in 1996 with Tim Allen ‘s sitcom Home Tricks , and made his film debut the following year with a fleeting role in Howard Stern ‘s thug film Private Parts . The truth is that you have to go back to 2000 to see her in a mildly interesting movie, the university secret society thriller The Skulls . Of course, she has not stopped working on TV, with sporadic or more constant roles. Of the latter, her presence stands out in The Big Easy (1997), Popular –Between 1999 and 2001, three years in which she was one of the two rival protagonists, her high school classmates, Bibbs’ posh and another cruder one played byCarly Pope –, Emergencies (2002 and 2003) and Line of Fire (2004) –again with prominence, as an FBI agent, although the series was only on the air for one season–.

In cinema, his roles have been most of the time brief, and almost always with some element of comedy. This is the case of Pasado de vueltas (2006) and Confessions of a compulsive shopper (2009). And in the two installments of the superhero Iron Man (2008 and 2010) she has been the reporter Christine Everhart, always on the heels of the arms manufacturer Tony Stark, who also has a certain comic character. On the other hand, the facet of a policeman entangled in her intrigues helped her to be in An exemplary citizen (2009), where Gerard Butler was said citizen, determined to do justice on her behalf, and Bibb a police officer.

Because Leslie thinks she can make a good leading lady if they let her, she committed herself as a producer to a minor black comedy Miss Noboby (2010), where she headlined as a very sweet secretary, but discovers that the assassin’s trade has become too much for her. it gives the sea of ​​​​good. After being a frivolous and crazy girlfriend in Zooloco (2011), she plans to premiere a thriller, Meeting Evil , with Samuel L. Jackson .

If as a professional Leslie has traced out a reasonable career for the moment, in his personal life he has not yet found the desirable and happy stability. Married in 2003 to Rob Born, a banker, the marriage lasted only a year.
