Denise Richards biography and personal life

Childhood

Denise spent her quiet childhood in Illinois.
But when the girl turned 15, she and her parents and younger sister moved to coastal Oceanside. At his new place of residence, his father became the owner of a chain of coffee shops and minibars, for the sake of this position he left a good post in a large telephone company. Denise and her sister did not need anything, but they were always missing something, so the little Richards were constantly looking for hobbies. For some time, the sisters were interested in cinema, but did not even think about an acting career. But one day Denise saw John Travolta, fell in love with him and promised herself to become famous, though not as an actress, but as a fashion model.

Spectacular blonde

Denise graduated from high school in 1989, went to New York and got a job at a photo agency. A little later, the first advertisement featuring Richards appeared. The girl advertised swimwear and cosmetic products. However, Denise did not work as a fashion model for long, only two years, after which she had the feeling that something needed to change in her life.

Actor career

At that moment, the girl went to the Dream Factory in Los Angeles, where, unexpectedly for herself and those around her, she decided to try herself as an actress.
Denise took acting classes and began acting in the TV show Rosie O'Donnell. And after a couple of filming in television series, Richards completely immersed herself in big cinema. She easily got roles in several television series, for example, “Married with Children,” “Erie Indiana” in 1991, and “Life Goes On” in 1993. And in 1992, Denise got a truly stellar role. The aspiring actress starred in the youth series “Beverly Hills 90210,” which touched on almost all topical topics: drugs, alcoholism, rape, and even suicide, AIDS and teenage pregnancy.

Then the young actress began visiting film studios and attending all the auditions. However, she received only small roles in low-budget films. But she wanted to get a decent role at all costs and prove to everyone that she was a worthy actress. In 1993, Denise got a fairly significant role in the parody film “Loaded Weapon.” After this work, the producer finally noticed her.

With daughters

His first big role was in the 1997 film Nowhere by Gregg Araki. There Denise played the charming Jana. The young actress skillfully blended into the character of the film about Californian high school students.

Career

She spent the majority of the 1990s appearing in lower-budget films and television shows such as Tammy and the T-Rex, Saved by the Bell, television movies, and guest starring in episodes of several television shows such as Married… with Children (1991 ), a five-second walk through. She later made guest appearances in shows such as Beverly Hills, 90210 (1992), Seinfeld (1993), Lois and Clark (1994) and a guest-arc in Melrose Place (1996). Her first starring role in a wide theatrical release was Starship Troopers in 1997 for which Richards was nominated for the Blockbuster Entertainment Award for Favorite Female Newcomer. She followed this with a role in Wild Things.[9] Variety praised Richards' transition from good-girl-type roles to manipulative villainess and the review continued to include her as part of “an ensemble that appears to be enjoying the challenge of offbeat roles and unusual material. There’s not a wrong note struck by the game group of players.”[10] In 1998, she appeared in the music video for the Blues Traveler song “Canadian Rose.”[11]

Richards at the premiere of The World Is Not Enough (1999)

Richards was cast as the nuclear physicist Christmas Jones in the 1999 James Bond film The World Is Not Enough (1999). Though she considered her role “brainy”, “athletic”, and having depth of character,[12] she was criticized as not credible in the role.[13][14] Her outfit, which often comprised a low-cut tank top and tight shorts, elicited unfavorable comments.[15] She was ranked as one of the worst Bond girls of all time by Entertainment Weekly in 2008,[16] and was chosen as “Worst Supporting Actress” at the 1999 Razzie Awards for the role,[17] although, Richards was also nominated for the Blockbuster Entertainment Award for Favorite Actress – Action, for the same film. Later that year, Richards starred alongside Kirsten Dunst in the beauty pageant satire, Drop Dead Gorgeous. Richards, playing a spoiled princess, was praised for her performance by Los Angeles Times for being “as rightly nasty as she is pretty.”[18]

In 2001, she guest-starred in Friends as Ross and Monica Geller's cousin, Cassie Geller in the episode "The One with Ross and Monica's Cousin".[19][20] Later that year she appeared in four episodes of Spin City as Jennifer Duncan, a love interest of Charlie Sheen's character. She starred as Sheen's character's ex-girlfriend two years later in two episodes of Two and a Half Men. In 2005, she starred in the short-lived UPN series Sex, Love & Secrets. Richards appeared in films such as Valentine (2001), Undercover Brother (2002) and Scary Movie 3 (2003). In 2003, she made a very brief appearance in the British romantic comedy, Love Actually. In 2005, she starred in the ensemble drama, Edmond alongside Julia Stiles.

In December 2004, she posed for a nude pictorial in Playboy magazine, five months after giving birth.[21] Richards posed semi-nude for the July 2006 issue of Jane magazine to raise money for the Clothes Off Our Back Foundation. In 1999, she ranked 9th in Maxim's 50 Sexiest Women and in 2001 she was voted 2nd in FHM's USA 100 Sexiest Women, 5th in FHM's 100 Sexiest Women and 19th in AskMen.com's 50 Most Beautiful Women. She was named one of the “100 Hottest Women of All-Time” by Men's Health.[22] In 2008, she reunited with her Wild Things on-screen mother Theresa Russell in Jolene. Richards appeared on the 8th season of Dancing with the Stars, paired with Maksim Chmerkovskiy. She was eliminated second on March 24, 2009.

In 2010, she joined the cast of Blue Mountain State, a Spike comedy series. Richards plays Debra, the ex-wife of Coach Daniels.[23] In July 2011, Richards published a memoir The Real Girl Next Door, a New York Times Best Seller.[24] Richards was part of TV Guide Network's show, Hollywood Moms' Club, which aired in November 2011.[25][26] In September 2011, Richards reportedly turned down $100,000 to appear as an ex-girlfriend at Charlie's funeral in Two and a Half Men.[27] A month later, she began filming a guest spot for an episode for the sixth season of NBC comedy 30 Rock.[28] In 2012, Richards joined the cast of ABC Family pilot, Twisted (formerly Socio). In February 2013, ABC Family commissioned the drama for a full series.[29]

In August 2020, Richards announced that she will be joining the Bravo reality series, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, for their ninth season, which premiered February 12, 2020.[30]

Bond girl

The leading role in the fate of Denise in the acting field was played in 1997 by director Paul Verhoeven.
He invited the girl to play the leading female role in the science-fiction film Starship Troopers. The fantasy-adventure satire went around the world, as they say, “for an encore” and brought the creators a good box office. Denise Richards herself received public and critical acclaim. Then the actress rather reluctantly starred in her only film, Sexual Crimes. In the film she appeared naked, but both the script and the director's plan adamantly demanded it. A similar immodest role appeared in 1998 in a crime thriller called “Savagery.” Matton Dillon and Neve Campbell starred alongside Denise.

Denise Richards on video After these pictures, Denise shone on the Hollywood horizon, critics vied with each other to praise the talent and appearance of the actress. And confirmation of her star status was the invitation to play Agent 007’s girlfriend in the next Bond film, “The World is Not Enough.” Sophie Marceau, Pierce Brosnan, Judi Dench and Robert Carlyle played on the set here.

New creativity

With her work, Denise proved that she is capable of different genres of cinema, from tender lyrics to grotesque slapstick.
After the successful Bond film in 2001, she starred alongside David Boreanaz in the horror film Valentine's Day. And a year later, another good mark appeared in the actress’s film biography. These are the romantic comedies Good Advice with Charlie Sheen and The Third Wheel with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Wildness Next, Denise brilliantly played the role of the girl Jennifer Duncan in the film “City Whirl”, and then followed the role in the drama “Empire” along with John Leguizamo. In the same 2002, the actress played the role of Chloe in the film “You’re a Jerk!”, where she worked with Milla Jovovich and William Baldwin. The hero White Devil Richards played in the comedy “Secret Brother”. In 2003, only episodic work followed, for example, in the Christmas melodrama Love Actually. And in the movie “Scary Movie 3” Denise played the sensual Annie. Cassie Geller portrayed a girl named Lisa Denise in the series Friends.

Despite a lot of small roles, Denise’s career developed rapidly. The next successful work was in 2004 in the romantic comedy Elvis Has Left the Building by Joel Zwick. And then the film “Whore” and the melodrama “Someone else’s Wedding” were released, where Denise played a fussy employee of a wedding planning agency.

In 2007, Denise Richards appeared in the comedy Blonde and Blonde. In a duet with Pamela Anderson, the actress found herself drawn into mafia squabbles. The beautiful blonde heroines were mistaken for killers who worked for the mafia. After the resounding success of the film, Denise allowed herself to star in several episodes of the series “Small Town Confidential” by Adam Davidson.

Minutes of rest

2008 was spent working in the intriguing drama “Jolene” by Dan Ireland, where the girl worked together with Dermot Mulroney and Jessica Chastain.

Personal life of Denise Richards

In the comedy “Good Advice,” Charlie Sheen became Denise’s colleague on the set.
He became her companion in life. The partners got married and had two daughters. However, dreams of a full-fledged family and domestic happiness did not come true, the couple separated, they say that this happened because of Charlie Sheen’s assault. Denise practices kickboxing and yoga and enjoys decorating and planning her home. And in the future, the girl plans to devote maximum time to traveling.

Denise invited her strict parents, Joni and Irv, to watch the film “Wild Things.” And during the nude episode with her participation, she asked mom and dad to close their eyes. Surprisingly, the actress’s request was fulfilled. Thus, Denise avoided parental notation.

Denise does not hide her main flaw. This is rudeness. The girl admits that she is sometimes very harsh with loved ones because she does not know how to show them her love. In addition, the actress’s vocabulary contains a lot of strong words that would suit an experienced sailor rather than a famous actress.
