Tricia Helfer

I have a real soft spot for Tricia Helfer. A statuesque Albertan who walked for Chanel, Versace and Armani through the 1990s, she could easily have stayed a face on a billboard. Instead she reinvented herself entirely as the Cylon in Battlestar Galactica, a role that demanded eerie range, and then kept stretching into voice work. In an industry quick to dismiss models who act, she answered with results. What draws me to her is that deliberate climb, the refusal to settle for being merely beautiful. That kind of earned credibility always wins my respect.
