Denise Richards

Denise Richards belongs to a very specific late-1990s Hollywood moment, and I think she handled it more shrewdly than she gets credit for. Starship Troopers, Wild Things, and a Bond film in three consecutive years is a hot streak few actresses ever experience, and the inevitable cooldown could have ended her career. Instead she pivoted — into television, into reality formats, into reinventing herself as a personality — and stayed culturally visible for decades. That kind of longevity is not an accident; it requires self-awareness and a sense of humor about your own image. I respect survivors in this industry, and she is unmistakably one of them.
