Sophie Monk Biography
Born: December 14, 1979
Born in England but raised down under, alluring actress Sophie Monk achieved fame in the spring of 2000, when she enrolled in a 13-part American_Idol-style music competition on Australian television's Channel 7 network. Monk did so opposite innumerable hopefuls, five of whom (including her) were tapped for involvement in the "manufactured" all-girl band Bardot. The group's musical success took off meteorically; not long after, Monk branched out into acting. She bore more than a passing resemblance to Marilyn_Monroe, so it seemed fitting that she would be tapped to fully evoke the legendary screen goddess in Peter_Bogdanovich's telemovie The Mystery of Natalie Wood (2004); subsequent assignments included roles in such Hollywood programmers as Date_Movie (2006), Click (2006), and the fantasy-tinged sex comedy Sex and Death 101 (2007). The following year, Monk appeared in a small role as a sexy coed in the farce Spring_Breakdown (2008). Nathan Southern, Rovi
