Emmanuelle Chriqui might not possess the most impressive resume in town, but she's slowly gaining ground as one of Young Hollywood's most exciting new talents. Born in 1977 in Montreal, Canada, Emmanuelle realized at a young age that she wanted to act, but because her parents couldn't afford proper lessons, she had to rely on her older brother to pay for the classes out of his own pocket. Working as a waitress while auditioning for television shows, Emmanuelle eventually landed roles in Canadian-produced series like “Forever Knight,” “Kung Fu: The Legend” and “Psi Factor.”
At the end of the 1990s, Emmanuelle finally got her big Hollywood break when she was offered a supporting role in the KISS-themed comedy, “Detroit Rock City.” Bigger parts in films like “Snow Day” and “100 Girls” followed, and she even filmed a scene for Steven Spielberg’s “AI” that was cut from the final theatrical version. And though she did co-star in the unofficial ‘N Sync movie, “On the Line,” Emmanuelle’s next significant role didn’t come for another three years when she appeared alongside Eliza Dushku in the cannibal horror flick, “Wrong Turn.” Since then, Emmanuelle has been getting some pretty high-profile work, including a recurring guest star role on the HBO comedy “Entourage,” and it’s only a matter of time before we see even more of this talented Moroccan beauty.
