Description:
Alicia Silverstone was born on October 4, 1976, in San Francisco,
California, the youngest of three children to Monty Silverstone, a real-estate
investor, and Didi Silverstone, a former flight attendant. Alicia's career began
at the tender age of six when her dad took some photos of his young daughter,
which eventually led to her getting several television commercials. After a
guest spot on "The Wonder Years" (1988) as a literal "dream girl"
she moved on to movies. She landed a role in The Crush (1993), a sort of Fatal
Attraction (1987) for teenagers in which she portrayed a disturbed young girl
obsessed with an older man. The nasty little role didn't impress the critical
establishment but it wowed its target audience: teenagers. In fact, the role
won her the 1994 MTV Movie Award for "Best Villain" and "Breakthrough
Performance". It is interesting to note that during the filming of the
movie, Alicia became an emancipated minor in order to get around child labor
laws which would have interfered with her working hours. She was a dedicated
actress from early on. The film also caught the attention of Aerosmith, who
hired her to appear in a string of their music videos. The first of them, "Cryin'",
was voted the #1 video of all time on MTV. Silverstone was definitely a hit
with the MTV crowd, but larger commercial success still eluded her. That all
changed when she landed the role of "Cher" in Amy Heckerling's Clueless
(1995). Cher was the antithesis of Alicia's role in "The Crush; this time
around she was a rich, naive yet endearing girl from Beverly Hills in search
of love in the 1990s. The film was a huge box-office hit and wowed both audiences
and critics alike and demonstrated Alicia's strength and bankability. She was
hailed as the woman of the hour, and branded the spokeswoman for an emerging
young generation. She signed a deal with Columbia Tristar worth $10 million
and got the coveted role of Batgirl in the Batman franchise. Also, as part of
the package, she got a three-year first-look deal for her own production company,
First Kiss Productions. The first film released by First Kiss was Excess Baggage
(1997).
