Introduction
Estella Warren is more than just a pretty face and an actress. She's also a world-class athlete, or at least she was at the age of 12, when she trained with the Canadian National Synchronized Swimming team.
Life Story
She was set to enter the 1996 Olympics when her career path changed after a talent scout spotted Warren at her High School in Canada. The scout took a Polaroid of the 17-year-old, and sent it off to a New York Modeling Agency. Warren was soon gracing the pages of Vogue, Vanity Fair and Sports Illustrated.
It was only a matter of time before Hollywood took notice. Warren was cast in perfume commercials directed by Luc Besson, and soon thereafter was seen in the Sylvester Stallone movie Drive and played a human slave to monkeys in Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes (Andrea Grano, Lisa Marie) remake. She went on to star in the indie hit The Cooler with William H. Macy and had guest appearances on That 70's Show (Laura Prepon, Mila Kunis) and Law and Order (Angie Harmon, Elisabeth Rohm). You can see Warren next in the thriller Irreversi.
