Best of the Original Baywatch Babes

[Stamoholic]

PICTURES:

Yasmine Bleeth ( Caroline Holden) -- Chandler Bing said it best: " Well, how could anyone not be in love with Yasmine Bleeth?!" Yes, despite what history may tell us, not all men wanted to be given mouth to mouth by C.J Parker. A hell of a lot of them would have pushed her out of the way for a look at the curvy, blue eyed Caroline Holden. Her babe status was pretty much destroyed by the emergence of a rather unfortunate mug shot in 2001, but in her hey-day Yasmine was one of the hottest things to touch the California coastline. She gave a welcome alternative to the beach bunny look adopted by most of the shows blondes, because Yasmine was dark, sensual, and her curvy body was au naturale. She might not be the dreamgirl of today, but she was without a doubt one of Baywatch's premium babes.

Carmen Electra ( Leilani McKenzie) -- The character of Leilani McKenzie was created in 1997 to fill the gapping "hotness" void created by Pamela Anderson leaving the show, and picking Carmen Electra for the part certainly got the job done. With her exotic looks and fun personality, Carmen became an incredibly popular member of the Baywatch team despite only lasting for one year. Today, Carmen's sex appeal remains and she's still a popular fixture in the mens mag circuit, even after having a few somewhat openly gross relationships with Dennis Rodman, Dave Navarro and post-Anderson Tommy Lee. If that doesn't prove that a girl is naturally sexy, what will?

Gena Lee Nolin ( Neely Capshaw) -- The original "uber-bitch", Gena Lee Nolin's Neely Capshaw might not have been the most tremendously acted character in the world, but she was definitely entertaining. Not to mention the fact that she was another very welcome blonde babe. Today, Gena Lee definitely fades into the background as just another former Baywatch darling with a boob job and a sex tape, but in the 90's she was hot and her character was definitely more interesting and gave her more appeal than a lot of the other girls of the show.

Pamela Anderson ( Casey Jean 'C.J' Parker) -- The red swimsuit clad phenomena herself. Pamela started at the show in 1992 and quickly jumped into the dreams of around about every boy or man who happened to be breathing during the 90s. Next to The Hoff, Miss Anderson is the most famous member of the Baywatch cast and quite arguably she was the one that made the show famous ( along with it's slo-mo beach-running scenes and the blue eyes of Miss Bleeth). Although things sort of went down hill for Pam when she started marrying washed-up rockers and inflating her breasts to Parton-esque proportions, Pamela Anderson was once one of the most beautiful women on the planet, a sex symbol, and is widely considered today to be one of the best things that ever happened to television!

Donna D'Errico ( Donna Marco) -- Gorgeous blonde, did Playboy, married a member of Motley Crue. Sound familiar? Okay, so Donna's story isn't exactly a unique one within the Baywatch squad. Still, you would be hard pushed to find anyone with as much sex appeal, cutness and ( apparently) hidden intelligence as Donna D'Errico. Her slamming body and dainty chipmunk-like face made her an interesting little bundle, even if her character was a little bland... and lets just forget about Nikki Sixx.

Alexandra Paul ( Stephanie Holden) -- Somewhere between Jamie Lee Curtis and Elle Mcpherson you find Alexandra Paul. If the character of Steph Holden gave Baywatch anything it was substance and variety. Alexandra wasn't a woman with hair down to her waist and boobs bigger than Barbie's, but she was definitely a babe. She had a smart, athletic look that became sorely missed when she was finally killed off by the shows writers... by getting a boat mast to the head. Original!

Nicole Eggert ( Summer Quinn) -- Find one American male who grew up in the 1990s and didn't know who Nicole Eggert was... and win a million dollars! The babe of Charles in Charge joined the cast of Baywatch in 1992 and, of course, quickly became known as a babe on that show too! The quinessential California girl, Nicole radiated health and beauty throughtout her three year stint as Summer Quinn and, unlike many of the Baywatch girls, Nicole continues to radiate beauty and health! If we just forget that she dated Scott Baio, she's basically perfect.

Erika Eleniak ( Shauni McClain) -- If being in multiple Playboy issues doesn't prove your attractiveness then being in multiple Playboy issues will sporting eyebrows like Eddie Munster certainly will! For this reason, Erika was sort of an oddity to some. Imagine such brows on the likes of Pam Anderson or Miss Electra... and it certainly puts a dent in their allure. Yet somehow Erika Eleniak not only carried them off but looked damn good while doing it, and that is definitely a testiment to her sex appeal. Erika has also managed to avoid the plastic-fantastic-marrying-a-dirty-rockerstar future of many of her co-stars. Today, she is living in good health in Canada and appearing on mens t-shirts for sale at Topman. Nice.

Traci Bingham ( Jordan Tate) -- The less attention one pays to the recent event photos of Traci Bingham the better, but in her day Traci was right up there with Naomi and Tyra representing black beauty, and definitely gave the other Baywatch babes a run for their money with her lean and muscular body, not to mention her beautiful and pretty face.

Marliece Andrada ( Skylar Bergman) -- Who? Okay, so Marliece really isn't the best remembered of the Baywatch babes, but she definitely was one... which she proved by landing herself a lifeguard themed Playboy spread! Still, there was something unique and different about Marliece's appearance on the show. Her gorgeous light brown curls, full-figure and pouty lips gave her a more natural look than many of her co-stars... even if it was all faked! Since leaving Baywatch, she played Agent X-Tra in the game Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko. Not quite the success story she was perhaps hoping for.

Angelica Bridges ( Taylor Walsh) -- Being the Bay's resident redhead gave Angelica enough sex appeal to start with. She really didn't need that body. End of.

Kelly Packard ( April Giminski) -- One of the only characters to make the move between seasons 8 and 9, Kelly may be a favorite to those who were only old enough to catch the later half of the show. What makes Kelly special, though, is that perfect mix of hotness and cuteness that most woman desire. She was sexy but not too sexy, and she was cute but not too cute, and she had a smile that could melt anyones heart. Kelly isn't doing much in the public sphere nowadays, although she did recently drop out of hosting GSN live in order to persue " new projects", so hopefully we're yet to see the best of Miss Packard.

P.S: Apologies for name typo's, etc.

Nice poll!!

I picked Kelly for face and Yasmine for body... it was a very tough choice.

Kelly is still considerably hot today and Yasmine was 100% natural hot.

Erica, Geena, and Nicole also score very high points with me. (Y)

Yasmine brightened up many a dull Saturday afternoon for me...

[Stamoholic]

My personal votes went as follows:

Best Face: Pamela ( She's a little vampish now, but in 1992 she had the prettiest face I think I've ever seen on a person.)

Best Body: Yasmine ( It goes without saying. Carmen and Angelica and Pam had good bodies too, but Yasmine's was given to her by God, not some Hollywood scalpel happy surgeon.)

Least Favorite: Carmen ( She was beautiful and funny, but I think seeing her reality show with Dave N. just killed her sexiness stone dead for me. She came off way too cheap.)

Gena nearly got my least favorite vote, but recently I saw an interview with her and she came off so helpless and sweet it was endearing. So, sorry Carmen!

Glad people are enjoying this poll!! xxXxx

agree w/ you Stamoholic! ^ Pam in the 90's had a very natural,fresh, BEAUTIFUl face! she was (besides cindy c, the sex symbol) of the 90's!

Pam x2 (her bod is fake, but damn it sparked a nation!) at one point her proportions were one of a kind!

Alexandra x1 (as a kid I thought she was so ugly & old compared to the rest of the girls. )

Thanks for making this thread by the way!

Pam was definately where it was at back in the day. I can't get over how she was discovered. CFL is way more exciting than NFL... and she stopped the freakin' game.

Carmen for the face. Even if she is really too cheap now (agree with you stamoholic) she was really beautiful. But to me yasmine was naturally gorgeous. I loved Pam but I really hate her nose! The only thing that needed a job on her was her nose (certainly note her lips & boobs that were already plump and big before the surgeries!!)

body goes to Yasmine. Pamela's body is -was- wow! but i really do prefer Yasmine very round curves

Least favorite : Gena, she was just :yuckky:

[Qball]

That's a really nice poll.

Best face goes to Nicole Eggert, she was really pretty in Baywatch. Now, in the body department, I have a few favorites - Pam, Yasmine and Nicole again. I voted for Pam because of her boobs. Simple as that

Least favorite? Gotta be Alexandra Paul. Not sexy appearance, and a definitely un-sexy last name I've never been too fond of Carmen either.

Alexandra Paul was the only one who looked like she might be able to actually swim.

You are right. It rarely happens now.

True. I'm not sold on any of them saving me if I'm drowning.
