Beautiful Couple Lee Horsley & Cheryl Ladd from the mini-series Crossings as Ken & Barbie Dolls
The most beautiful women in TV and Movie History now become Barbie Collector Dolls created by acclaimed re-paint Artist Donna Brinkley.
Beauty, grace, class and an effervescent personality, is it any wonder why Cheryl Ladd remains one of Hollywood’s favorites. Cheryl has come a long way from her days as one of Charlie’s Angels. From television to movies, Broadway and now author for Cheryl Ladd, the best is yet to come.
Ladd is known as one of Hollywood's most talented stars and beauty queens, born Cheryl Jean Stoppelmoor in Huron, South Dakota. Cheryl's parents were of German descent, the second daughter of Dolores, a waitress, and Marion Stoppelmoor (1929–2001), a railroad engineer. She married fellow actor David Ladd, with whom she had a daughter, Jordan. She took his surname as her own, which she kept after their divorce. She has been married to music producer Bryan Russell since 1981, and has a stepdaughter, Lindsay Russell.
Ladd initially came to Hollywood in 1970 to begin a career in music (she was known as Cherie Moor when she was the singing voice of Melody on Hanna-Barbera's Josie and the Pussycats animated series). She soon began to land non-singing roles in commercials and episodic television - including guest appearances on shows such as The Rookies, The Partridge Family and Happy Days. The Charlie's Angels series made her an overnight star, and Ladd took the opportunity of her sudden popularity to further pursue her musical interests, guest-starring in musical-comedy variety series and her own TV specials, performing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl XIV in January 1980, and releasing three albums, enjoying a Top 40 Hot 100 single and a Gold record. In September 2000, Ladd starred on Broadway, taking over the title role from Bernadette Peters in a revival of Irving Berlin's Annie Get Your Gun. She played the role until January 2001, when Reba McEntire took over.
Following Charlie's Angels, Ladd remained a familiar face on television and has starred in more than 30 made for television films, including a coveted role as Grace Kelly, the Philadelphia heiress who became a Hollywood glamour girl and then a European princess, in a biopic that was begun shortly before Kelly's death. She also starred in some of TV's top rated movie's and was voted time and time again as one of Hollywood's most beloved stars with such movies as: Kentucky Woman, Deadly Care, A Death In California, Romance On The Orient Express, Jekyll and Hyde (A Love Story), Crossings, Bluegrass, Changes, Locked Up: A Mother's Rage, The Fulfillment of Mary Gray, Crash: The Mystery of Flight 1501, Broken Promises: Taking Emily Back, Dancing With Danger, Every Mother's Worst Fear, plus feature films such as Now and Forever, Purple Hearts, Millennium, Poison Ivy (featuring Drew Barrymore, who later starred in the film adaptations of Charlie's Angels) and Permanent Midnight. Ladd had the lead role in the television series One West Waikiki (1994–96), and made guest appearances in other TV shows such as Charmed, Hope and Faith and CSI: Miami. From 2003 until the show's cancellation in 2008, Ladd played Jillian Deline, the wife of the lead character Ed Deline (James Caan), in 28 episodes of the television drama Las Vegas.
While still on the series Charlie's Angels, Ladd developed and starred in the ABC telefilm, When She Was Bad (also starring Robert Urich), which dealt with the harsh realities of child abuse. At that time, no one was saying anything about this horrific epidemic going on in our country, says Ladd, an ambassador for Childhelp USA - one of the largest national, non-profit organization dedicated to research, prevention and treatment of child abuse. I wanted to bring this issue to the forefront of people's minds. During her spare moments between projects, Ladd is a tireless humanitarian. In addition to being awarded the Woman of the World Award from Childhelp USA in 1987, Ladd also had the honor of becoming the first woman to receive the prestigious Hubert H. Humphrey Humanitarian Award by the Washington D.C. Touchdown Club for her continuing philanthropic endeavors. She also speaks out on her being a Born-Again Christian and her Faith in Jesus Christ whenever she can.
In 1996, Ladd published a children's book, The Adventures of Little Nettie Windship. In 2005, she published Token Chick: A Woman’s Guide to Golfing With the Boys, an autobiographical book which focused on her love of golf. For several years, Ladd hosted a golf tournament sponsored by Buick.
On April 17, 2010, Ladd, along with her co-angel, Jaclyn Smith, accepted the 2010 TV Land Pop Culture Award; for Charlie's Angels.
In 2010, Ladd filmed a TV movie titled Love's Everlasting Courage for the Hallmark Channel, which aired on October 1, 2011. That same month, she guest starred on NCIS in the show's ninth season episode Thirst as the love interest of medical examiner Dr. Donald Ducky Mallard. In December 2011, she guest starred in an episode of Chuck, playing Sarah Walker's mother, in the shows 8th episode of season five.
Currently Ladd is appearing in national 30-second spots for an educational campaign for women about the importance of seeing a doctor at the on set of menopause. Over the last thee years, research suggests a nearly 30% drop in the number of women who have visited their doctors due to Menopausal issues. Launched by Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, Ladd is the figurehead of this awareness initiative, hoping to drive women to a new online resource, www.talkingtoyourdoctor.com .
An avid golfer, Ladd plays whenever time allows sporting a respectable index of 14. When she's not on the golf course, Ladd keeps herself busy developing new projects and has also written a children’s book with her husband of over twenty years, Brian Russell. The book, The Adventures of Little Nettie Windship, teaches the value of good citizenship, and championship.
Ladd's focus, however, remains on her acting. I think it would be great fun to do a sitcom, she says, I'm one of those actors who is always looking to the next challenge.
