Sexy Nerdy Rachel Nichols

I got my first look at her in Alias as Sydney Bristow's protėgé in CIA. She was intended to replace Jennifer Garner as the lead but that didn't push through as the show ended last May 2006. She is a model, alright but afar from typecast dumb ones walking the ramp, in fact she loves math equations. It is rare for a hot actress like her who engaged early at the field of modeling.

Before she got her first stint as a restaurant hostess in Sex and the City, she models for Guess, Abercrombie & Fitch, L'Oreal and Nicole Miller making her a sought-after cover girl during her early 20's. She is also hailed by Yahoo as Model of the Month for September in 2000, not to mention as Maxim's Sexiest Women at the 28^th spot in 2003. Then she cross-over into movies via Dumb and Dumberer which is a flop but that didn't hinder her to achieve more engagements in tv as well as in movies. She was lined up for two horror flicks in a row: The Amityville Horror and The Woods.

As she is done with horror genre now comes action as she is casted Rachel Gibson in ABC hit spy-fi series Alias along with Jennifer Garner. After she created a household name for herself, she came back for television via FOX's sci-fi drama Them as one of the lead stars. In movies she did Resurrecting the Champ with Samuel L. Jackson and Josh Hartnett and P2 in which she stars as a woman trapped inside a parking garage and her return in horror genre. See more of her in Charlie Wilson's War topbilled by Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, For Sale by Owner opposite Skeet Ulrich and Star Trek as Yeoman Janice Rard.
