Early life

Davis was born in Los Angeles, California. When she was seventeen, she left home to pursue a career in classical ballet in New York but after finding she was too tall to audition for corps de ballet she decided to become a fashion model instead.[2] She has Yankton Sioux ancestry through her mother.[3][4]

Career

Davis began her career as a model, primarily in Europe, where she modeled for the Italian fashion house Pirelli[5] and the England hosiery company Gossard.[6]

In 1993, Davis was a singer in the short-lived duo Drive with Melanie Blatt, who released the single "Curfew".

Davis' acting credits include the role of "Mandy" in Eyes Wide Shut, Tabloid, House of 9, and The Bill, as well as being a main cast member of the British television series Too Much Sun. She also appeared in an advertisement for Carling beer. Prior to acting, she worked as a fashion model for print, editorial, and catalogues, most notably for Gossard Bras and the Pirelli Calendar. Davis is co-writer, co-producer, and lead vocalist for the band Sophisticated Savage.

In 2016, Davis wrote for a right-of-center political magazine, "coming out" as a conservative in Hollywood.[7] She is a Christian and has been called "one of Hollywood’s leading Republicans".[8] She currently resides in Pasadena, California, with her husband Jay Strongman.[9]

Notes

  1. While some sources state Davis was born September 26, 1973, she clarified in a 2024 interview that her birthdate is in fact September 26, 1963, and that she had intentionally reduced her age by ten years in the media and on her acting resumé.[1]
