ERIKA ELENIAK

People put a negative notion about Playmates saying that they tend to be stereotyped as only being beautiful, but lacking talent. However, that’s certainly not the case for everyone and Erika proves this otherwise, having successfully transitioned her popularity as a model for the magazine to a lucrative career in television. She even landed roles in various films, which further validates her place as one of the most talented individuals in show business during her heyday.

Her big-screen debut was a minor role in ET: The Extra-Terrestrial – in the scene where Elliott received a kiss – but later got bigger parts for Under Siege, The Blob, and The Beverly Hillbillies. The actress remains active to this day and has maintained the good looks that helped propel her career. With her latest project Marilyn Monroe Back? slated for release this year, Erika need not worry about bankruptcy or any kind of loans that would put her finances in the red zone.
