Sometimes a sense of humor is sexier than pure appearance, and if that’s the case, Tea Leoni is one of the sexiest women in Hollywood. Born in 1966 in New York City, Tea (pronounced TAY-ah) was brought up on a diet of private schools and professional parents, and followed that same track into college where she studied anthropology. After graduating, Tea traveled the Eastern hemisphere and worked in numerous positions, including modeling and as a crew hand on a commercial sailboat. These travels eventually perked her interest in acting, and after winning a role on an 80’s spin-off version of “Charlie’s Angels,” she continued to steal small parts in big-budget movies like “A League of Their Own” and “Wyatt Earp.”Her first big role, as the damsel-in-distress, in the action-comedy “Bad Boys” launched her in to the limelight and helped her land a starring role in the ABC sitcom “The Naked Truth.” The short-lived series was, well, short-lived, and three seasons on the air, the show was axed and Tea was left to find more work. More roles in small films helped to keep her face in the news, but her biggest job to date didn’t come from acting at all, but rather as the newly wed wife of “X-Files” star David Duchovny. Tea took some major time off at the end of the 90’s to take care of her first child, but following the new millennium, the still-young actress got back to work in films like “Jurassic Park III,” “The Family Man,” and “Spanglish.” Till this day, Tea still hasn’t really broken out as an A-list actress, but she remains to be one of the funnier comedic actresses in the industry. And without the help of her husband’s success to boost her career, it looks like Tea will have to do it all on her own.
