Denise Richards WallpaperDenise Richards was born in Downers Grove, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, to Irving Richards, of Welsh descent (who used to work for a phone company) and Joni, of Croatian descent, who owns a chain of coffeehouses named "Jitters". Richards moved to California with her family during her teen years, and graduated from El Camino High School, where she was a cheerleader, in Oceanside, California. Richards spent the majority of the 1990s appearing in television movies, lower-budget films, and guest starring in episodes of several television shows. Her first starring role in a wide theatrical release was Starship Troopers in 1997, which was followed by her role in the successful cult film Wild Things in 1998. Richards was subsequently cast Dr. Christmas Jones in the James Bond film The World Is Not Enough (1999), which had a high box office gross and contributed to Richards' renown. In addition to her film work, Richards has made regular appearances in the situation comedies Spin City, Two and a Half Men, Friends and Seinfeld. Throughout the early 2000s, Richards appeared in several film roles which both parodied and utilized her image as a love symbol, including Valentine, Undercover Brother and Scary Movie 3. In December 2004, Richards posed in a bare bone pictorial for Playb0y magazine. She was named the Prettiest Mom of 2005 by In Touch magazine. Richards has dated actor Patrick Muldoon. In 2002, she married actor Charlie Sheen, with whom she appeared in Scary Movie 3, where she played his character's dying wife. The couple have two daughters: Sam J, who was born on March 9, 2004, and Lola Rose, who was born on June 1, 2005. In March 2005, Richards filed for divorce. The couple briefly reconciled and were seeking marriage counseling to mend their relationship. However, on January 4, 2006, Richards' representative announced that she was continuing with the divorce. She has since been linked to actor John Stamos, whom she dated during her teenage years.[1] Richards reportedly enjoys kickboxing and has several dogs; she has recently used Cesar Millan, a Dog Whisperer, to control some of their unruly behavior. 2003 Scary Movie 3 Annie |
