ALI LANDRY BIOGRAPHY |
|
|
Wherever Ali Landry pops up, there's water involved. The 24-year-old
Cajun was raised in seaside Breaux Bridge, La., the Crawfish
Capital of the World. Once she was all grown-up in an orange one-piece
swimsuit, she paddled off with the Miss USA 1996 crown.
She has even done some laps on TV in what else other than Sunset
Beach, and her tidal turn on the small screen took place in a
laundromat. During last January's Super Bowl, she wiped out
viewers in an ad for Doritos Puffs: Two cool dudes try to
impress her with their prowess at catching the chips in their
mouths, but Landry, who studied tap, ballet, and gymnastics for
15 years, outdoes them with a series of splits and leaps
performed with a man-melting smile.
Her commercial costar Sean P. Hayes says, ''We were shooting all
day, and a lot of Doritos were consumed. I've never seen anyone
look better with orange powder on her face.''
The 5'8'' Landry, who lives in L.A. and dates Phoenix Cardinals
quarterback Stoney Case, still can't believe her impact. ''It's
absolutely crazy,'' she says, citing her imperfect vision (''I'm
almost blind without my glasses''), and her bunions (she kept
her favorite tennis shoes through a growth spurt).
Even her best beauty secret is low-priced. ''I buy this teeth-bleaching
stuff at Target and do it myself,'' she says. Her former
apartment mate Brian Edwards swears it works: ''When Ali smiled,
I would say, 'Stop it, you're blinding me!'''. |
