Rebecca Gayheart Biography |
|||||||||||||
| Rebecca Gayheart is an American actress. She is also well known for her modeling and acting work in commercials as "The Noxzema Girl". Gayheart was born in Hazard, Kentucky and raised in nearby Pinetop (also in Kentucky) by parents of Irish, Italian, German and Cherokee Indian heritage. She is a coal miner's daughter. She moved to New York City at 15 where she completed her education at New York's Professional Children's School and the Lee Strasberg Institute and began a career acting and modeling. Her major break was a series of television commercials for Noxzema in the early 1990s, earning her the moniker "The Noxzema Girl." Gayheart plead no contest to misdemeanor charge of involuntary vehicular manslaughter following a 2001 incident where she struck a nine-year-old boy crossing the street in Los Angeles. Although the boy was jaywalking, traffic had stopped to let him pass. Gayheart allegedly swerved into a left-turn-only lane to pass the stopped cars and struck the boy, who died the following day from his injuries. Later that year, she flipped a rental car into two parked cars. Her father blamed this accident on stress from the first accident. | |||||||||||||
