29 Emmanuelle Chriqui


This Canadian cutie is a shining example of how hard work, determination and a killer body go a long way toward creating success. From her humble roots as a 10-year-old in a McDonald’s commercial to bit parts in cable TV shows like Kung Fu: The Legend Continues and Psi Factor, this raven-haired actress worked hard in the trenches trying to make it in show business. Her big break came with Nickelodeon’s Snow Day starring Chevy Chase. It raised her profile and her easy, down-home look caught the eyes of casting agents all over. Luckily for us, she has been working steadily ever since.


This bilingual beauty was busy in 2006, picking up regular paychecks for her work in the wildly popular HBO show Entourage. She also showed up in a couple episodes of The O.C. and the indie film Waltzing Anna. Keen-eyed viewers would have also seen her in the comedy Waiting with fellow Canuck Ryan Reynolds.


Look for this prodigiously endowed wonder girl to garner a lot of screen time in 2007. Emmanuelle has three movies all slated for release this year, including the promisingly titled romantic comedy After Sex and the potentially hilarious Patriotville, costarring Apple spokesperson Justin Long and Daily Show alum Rob Corddry.
