Introduction
You could hate Tori Spelling because she was born with a silver ladle in her mouth. But don’t—because you’d be missing out on a lot of over-tanned, full-bosomed womanliness.
Life Story
Born in Beverly Hills to Candy and Aaron Spelling, an ultra-successful TV producer, made her television debut at age 8 on the Michael Mann-created, Robert Urich-starring Vega$, which her father executive-produced. She nabbed guest roles in a string of other shows—mostly ones produced by her father—including The Love Boat, Hotel, Fantasy Island, T.J. Hooker and, as Screech main squeeze Violet Anne Bickerstaff, Saved by the Bell (Elizabeth Berkley, Tiffani Thiessen, Leah Remini).
Then in 1990, she “won” the part that would define her nepotism-laden career, playing Donna Martin, aka, TV’s longest virgin, on the 1990s super-smash hit Beverly Hills, 90210 (Jennie Garth, Gabrielle Carteris, Shannen Doherty). Despite an increasingly greater dosage of Ian Ziering—or perhaps because of it?—the show lasted 292 episodes, all exec-produced by Tori’s pop.
From there, it’s been mostly guest spots, TV movies and reality shows for Tori. In 2006, she made actor Dean McDermott her second husband only a month after divorcing her first husband—and only a year after meeting McDermott on the set of the presumably amazing TV flick Mind Over Murder. In March of 2007, Tori gave birth to a son, Liam Aaron McDermott. While most assumed the middle name was a tribute to Tori’s father, insiders say it’s actually a subtle tip of the cap to baseball legend Hank Aaron.
Looking ahead, Tori plans to be very active in the rearing of young Liam, and she’s also at work on a memoir, to be published by Simon & Schuster in 2008. The early word is that it will be called Oh, Donna.
