Jaime King

Popularity in the acting field came to her after a brilliant career in the modeling business. In the 90s, Jamie King was the face of Chanel, Alexander McQueen, Christian Dior. She began acting in films in the early 2000s, with a bright start at Pearl Harbor. This was followed by a solidifying role in the "Sin City" by Robert Rodriguez. Today, King's filmography has dozens of roles in films and TV shows. The actress's most famous television character is Lamon Breeland from Heart of Dixie.

Jamie Barbara King was born on April 23, 1979 in a suburb of Omaha, Nebraska. Father - Robert King, mother - Nancy King, a former beauty queen. The couple had four children: daughters Sandy, Jamie and Barry, and a son, Robbie. The parents named their middle daughter after the character of the TV series "Bionic Woman" Jamie Sommer.

Nancy and Robert divorced in 1994 and the family's finances deteriorated. But little Jamie, who had already started her modeling career, began to earn her first money. She attended the Nancy Bounds' Studios modeling school and took part in the fashion show. In one of them, she was spotted by agent Michael Flutty. He advised the promising girl to move to New York to continue her modeling career.

In 1995, Jamie left school and moved to one of the world's fashion centers. She later continued her education by enrolling in a homeschooling program from the University of Nebraska.

In New York, the girl went through a test photo session, which was accepted with a bang, and signed a contract with the agency. Then it turned out that a girl named Jamie Richard was already working in the modeling staff. Then King takes the pseudonym James, under which he will later begin his biography in Hollywood.

Young James works hard and hard, participates in advertising campaigns for the world's largest fashion houses - Chanel, Dior, etc. Her photographs adorn the covers of the magazines Vogue Mademoiselle, Seventeen, Glamor and Harper's Bazaar. In 1998, she teamed up with Rebecca Romijn to host the MTV fashion show House of Style. And in 1999, Jamie entered the top sexiest women according to Maxim magazine, being on the 16th line.

After debuting as a TV presenter on the super popular MTV channel, Jamie became interested in film and television producers. 2001 was marked for her with bright film debuts. First, she is invited to play the small role of Pixel Girl in Daniel Waters' comedy Summer Fun. King coped with this task easily, but the new job in the crime drama "Cocaine" was not so easy. Jamie got the cameo role of Christina Jung, the daughter of drug dealer George Jung, the hero of Johnny Depp.

King then portrayed nurse Betty Bayer in Michael Bay's war drama Pearl Harbor. The mass viewer may not have noticed the modest girl in the background, but the producers and directors noted her abilities and textured appearance. In a word, there was no business behind the proposals.

2003 was marked by a major project and the first major role. Jamie plays Jade, a martial arts-savvy adventurer in the fantasy action movie Bulletproof Monk, opposite Chow Yun Fat and Sean William Scott.

To get into this picture, the actress went through 5 castings, including physical fitness tests, because she had to perform most of the stunts in the film herself. The picture, however, failed at the box office and received not the most flattering reviews from critics, but it was still nominated for the Teen Choice Awards as Best Adventure Drama.

In 2004, Jamie appeared in the comedy White Chicks, a parody of socialite Paris and Nicky Hilton. The film caused a flurry of negative criticism, "earning" 5 nominations of the anti-award "Razzie" (analogue of "Golden Raspberry").

Another defeat upset the actress. She turned her gaze towards television. The girl starred in an episode of the television project "Lonely Hearts". Then she was busy in 13 episodes of the series "Kitchen Secrets", her partner was Bradley Cooper.

Director Robert Rodriguez turned out to be an admirer of Jamie King's talent, he invited the actress to the film "Sin City" (2005), in which she played the twins Goldie and Wendy in a novel called "A Hard Goodbye". The film was a huge success, grossing over $ 158 million and winning the Technical Grand Prix at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival. And Jamie finally got the long-awaited and well-deserved recognition.

Now is the time for flamboyant big roles and stellar partners. In the same 2005, King starred in the crime drama Money for Two with Al Pacino and Matthew McConaughey, the comedy Cheaper by the Dozen with Steve Martin and Carmen Electra.

Since 2006, the model has played the main characters in the thrillers True True Lie (2006), The Avenger (2008), My Bloody Valentine (2009), and the horror film Traveler by David Arquette (2006). In 2011, Jamie began acting in the largest television project of her filmography - "Heart of Dixie", in which she successfully plays even now.

Between filming in Hollywood, Jamie manages to take part in photo shoots, because, having become an actress, she is even more in demand in advertising. King, despite his not young age, still poses in a swimsuit, showing an excellent figure. In addition, the actress has starred in music videos. So, in 2012, King starred in the provocative video of her close friend, singer Lana Del Rey, "Summertime Sadness", in which both women commit suicide according to the plot.

In 2014, King returns to Sin City, starring in the sequel to the acclaimed film, portraying all the same characters - the twin prostitutes Goldie and Wendy. However, the picture did not repeat the success of the original version. Having married the director, Jamie got the privilege of acting in her husband's films. In 2015, she played in Kyle Newman's comedy action film Wanted.

Jamie's first boyfriend was fashion photographer David Sorrenti. He died at the age of 21 from kidney disease triggered by heroin use. Jamie has also been using the illegal drug for several years. Only long-term treatment in a rehabilitation clinic helped her get rid of her addiction.

There were many novels in her personal life. Only a few of them are known. At the age of 21, she briefly met with rock musician Kid Rock, and 2 years later she had an affair with the late Fast and the Furious star Paul Walker.

In 2005, on the set of the film "Fans", the film star met director Kyle Newman. An office romance developed into a serious relationship. And in 2007 they became husband and wife.

The couple's firstborn son James Knight was born in 2013. The second son Leo Tams was born in 2015 after Jamie's long-term treatment (the woman had 5 miscarriages).

It is known that King has 15 tattoos on his body, including those dedicated to children. The star does not hide her life in photo moments from fans. Her Instagram is open for viewing and is replete with both family pictures and frames from new films.

In 2018, the actress starred in the box office action movie Ocean's Eight and the thriller Escape Plan 2.
