Elisabeth Shue
Elisabeth Shue debuted on the screen alongside Ralph Macchio in ‘The Karate Kid.’ Her sheer brilliance in acting helped her push her career, and she got the chance to star as the lead actor in the 1987 film ‘Adventures of Babysitting.’ The 90s were a golden time for her, with roles in blockbusters like ‘Leaving Las Vegas,’ ‘Back to the Future,’ and ‘Deconstructing Harry.’
She continued to make repeated appearances in ‘CSI: Crime Scene Investigation’ from 2012 to 2015. Recently, in 2017, she acted alongside Sarah Silverman and Emma Stone in ‘Battle of the Sexes.’ She also had memorable role in the Prime Video series “The Boys.”
Lucy Lawless
Men and boys back in the 90s had an extreme fantasy about Xena, the warrior princess. Different than other actresses of her time because of her fierce and dynamic personality, she rocked the Amazon-inspired costume like no other and stole the hearts and minds of thousands around the world.
The character of Xena had such a strong side of feminism to it that in all her later movies, Lawless continued to play similar roles. Not a person to be a damsel in distress, right? Her most recent works include TV series like ‘Salem,’ ‘Parks and Recreation,’ ‘Spartacus,’ ‘Agents of Shield’ and ‘Ash vs. Evil Dead.’
Tiffani Thiessen
Thiessen was a very well-known face back in the 90s, with a number of hit shows under her belt! From ‘Beverly Hills 90210’ to (more notably) ‘Saved By The Bell,’ she jumped between these super hot shows on TV and made her mark in Hollywood. She continued to act in television series like ‘Good Morning, Miami,’ ‘White Collar’ and, most recently 'Alexa & Katie.'
Thiessen’s talents were not limited to acting. Alongside the acting arena, the lady has good producer skills as well. Her fans around the world have been surprised to see her nail Cooking Channel’s ‘Dinner at Tiffani’s,’ which is her own cooking show.
Erika Eleniak
Another face from the famous ‘Baywatch,’ Erika Eleniak stopped the heartbeats of thousands around the world while donning the red bathing suit. For three years, she continued to play the role of Shauni, which helped her get lead roles in movies like ‘The Beverly Hillbillies’ and ‘Under Seige,' among others.
However, her career in other TV shows and films never saw the success that ‘Baywatch’ gave her in the early 90s. But her fans rejoiced when the news came out that Eleniak was set to play the character of the legendary Marilyn Monroe in a future film! Pretty cool, right?
Isabel Lucas
An Australian-born actress, Lucas spent parts of her childhood in Kakadu and Switzerland. Her passion for acting goes back to the early days of school when she used to take part in dramas and skits. Her first noteworthy role was in ‘Home and Away’ as Kit Hunter, and she continued to stun people in movies like ‘Red Dawn’ and ‘Transformers.’
But acting is not the only thing she focuses on! Environmental activists will be happy to know that she is an avid activist and has voiced her opinion against the extensive dolphin killing in Japan. The socially aware actress is a spokesperson for the Australian National Breast Cancer Foundation.
