Ali had her first major appearence into the celebrity world as a child in TV series, The Bold and the Beautiful. Ali is best most known for as the dorito's girl. " Two cool dudes try to impress her with their prowess at catching the chips in their mouths, but Landry, who studied tap, ballet, and gymnastics for 15 years, outdoes them with a series of splits and leaps performed with a man-melting smile ".

Ali has made many modelling appearances and hosts the UPN TV series FarmClub.com, Sunset Beach and her tidal turn on the small screen took place in a laundromat. Ali entered the Miss USA pageant and was crowned Miss USA 1996. She is also starring in a few upcoming films including Beautiful scheduled to release in 2000.

The 5'8" Landry, who lives in L.A. and dates Phoenix Cardinals quarterback Stoney Case, still can't believe her impact. "It's absolutely crazy," she says, citing her imperfect vision ("I'm almost blind without my glasses"), and her bunions (she kept her favorite tennis shoes through a growth spurt).

Even her best beauty secret is low-priced. "I buy this teeth-bleaching stuff at Target and do it myself," she says. Her former apartment mate Brian Edwards swears it works: "When Ali smiled, I would say, 'Stop it, you're blinding me!'"
