Milla Jovovich can claim to have had one
of the entertainment business' more varied careers. Born
to a Russian actress and a Yugoslavian doctor in the Ukrainian
capital of Kiev on December 17, 1975, Jovovich moved with
her family to Sacramento, California, when she was five.
She began her professional modeling career at the age of
11, spending most of her teen years displaying her exotic,
blue-eyed beauty on the covers of numerous magazines and
in service of countless products. While pursuing a successful
modeling career, Jovovich also began acting, appearing in
Zalman King's soft-core Two Moon Junction (1988)
as Sherilyn Fenn's little sister and Return to the Blue
Lagoon, the 1991 sequel to the endearingly awful Brooke
Shields flesh-fest Blue Lagoon (1980).
Following a role in Richard Linklater's
high school slacker opus, Dazed and Confused (1993),
Jovovich took a break from acting, and also put her modeling
career on hold. She turned instead to music, recording an
album, The Divine Comedy, that received surprisingly good
reviews. After touring for a few months, Jovovich returned
to California and revived her acting career with the help
of French director Luc Besson, who cast her in The Fifth
Element in 1996. An incredibly stylish sci-fi chase
film set in the 23rd century, it featured Jovovich as a
tangerine-haired alien, speaking in gibberish and wearing
little more than artfully-placed ace bandages designed by
Jean-Paul Gaultier. The film put her back on the Hollywood
radar, something given further assistance by Jovovich's
marriage to Besson (married in 1997, the two divorced in
1999). The following year Jovovich had a substantial role
as a prostitute in Spike Lee's He Got Game, and in
1999, she again stepped in front of the camera for Besson,
this time to play the title role in The Messenger: The
Story of Joan of Arc. She received strong notices for
her work, although the film itself earned less than a warm
reception. The following year, Jovovich appeared in Wim
Wenders' futuristic The Million Dollar Hotel as a
mental patient in the titular establishment.
