Born – June 15, 1964
Birmingham, Alabama, U.S.
Actress, former Friend, dancer in the dark.
Appeared in Springsteen's "Dancing in the Dark" video, was on "Family Ties," made some terrible movies ("Cocoon: The Return," "Mr. Destiny") and one awesome movie ("Ace Ventura").
Became a huge star on the show "Friends," which inspired millions to dance around like idiots in fountains with people they barely know.
Starred in "Scream." And "Scream 2." And "Scream 3." And "Scream 4," which didn't do too well, which means she probably won't star in "Scream 5."
Married "Scream" co-star David Arquette, had one of the strongest Hollywood marriages, right up until they separated in 2010.
Starred on the show "Cougar Town," which inspired millions of people to occasionally watch "Cougar Town," if nothing better is on.
Fun Fact: Her performance in the "Dancing in the Dark" video partially inspired "The Carlton Dance" on "Fresh Prince of Bel Air."
Funner Fact: She was the first person to use the word "period" (the monthly lady kind) on TV, in a 1985 tampon ad. She's like the Rosa Parks of menstruation!
