Born June 14, 1968 in New York, Yasmine Bleeth has distinguished
herself from the rest of the 'typecast' Baywatch cast by proving
she can act, and not just fill out a bathing suit. Her acting
career though began when she was only six months old, with an
endorsement with Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo. She also
landed her first cosmetics job at the age of six, with an
appearance in a Max Factor campaign. Bleeth attended the United
Nations International School in New York while she was doing
modeling and acting jobs, though she also drew cold feelings from
her classmates, who used to call her "Spazzy Yazzy"
because of her unusual name. One time when a movie role sent her
away a few months she received strange looks before one of her
friends had told her they all had thought she had left to have a
child, which she said devastated her at the age of 14. Yasmine
began her soap opera career at only the age of 16, when she got
the role of Ryan Fenelli in the ABC Soap Ryan's Hope. Her stint
their lasted four years and she continued in that vein in 1991
with a role in another ABC soap One Life To Live. Perhaps her most
recognized role to this date though landed shortly after her One
Life... role ended, when she got the part of Caroline Holden in
the syndicated hit Baywatch in 1994. Her three years there helped
land her the distinction of People's 50 Most Beautiful People in
1995. Yasmine's success continued after her Baywatch run was up
with several appearances in made for TV and big screen roles. She
has starred in The Lake, Ultimate Betrayal, Road Rage, and A Face
To Die For on the TV movie circuit, while landing roles in
BASEketball and Undercover Angels on the big screen. Her most
recent TV series role has been playing as Caitlin Cross alongside
Don Johnson in the CBS hit Nash Bridges.
Yasmine's off screen life has been much less publicized than some
of her wild Baywatch female co-stars. Many are surpassed that
unlike her castmates, she has never appeared nude nor has had
relationships with members of Motley Crue. She also has confirmed
in fact her breasts are real, and not silicon enhanced! She has
been described as a 'homebody' by many and rarely makes much of an
appearance in tabloid trash. Yasmine's life was touched by tragedy
in 1992 when her mother Carina died from breast cancer and she
recently opened her own website which will help her share her
passion for breast cancer research and early detection to her many
fans, which can be found at yasmineonline.com.
Yasmine had a relationship with Matthew Perry and in face was even
in the video for the Rembrandts follow-up hit to "I'll Be
There For You" with "This House Is Not A Home". Her
most recent and most serious relationship though has been with
Richard Grieco, who is best known for his role in 21 Jump Street.
There relationship has had its ups and downs and is greatly
strained by the fact that Grieco had an affair while dating Bleeth
in 1998 with his ex-girlfriend Kimber Sissons, where she reports
during that one month period she was living with the actor she
became pregnant with his child. What's troubling though are
reports that Grieco is a deadbeat dad, which are being leveled at
him by Kimber, who claims Grieco has only paid her $1,000 in child
support and has never visited his boy, despite the fact he owns a
$1.46 million home in LA with $92 thousand in furnishings and
another $34 thousand in art, in addition to an exotic car
collection. Friends say Richard fears that establishing a
relationship with his son may jeopardize his relationship with
Bleeth.
