Alicia Silverstone

She effectively removed herself from the public eye for many years, resurfacing in the critically acclaimed television show Miss Match. She received Kennedy Center Honors in 1998. Though hardly obese by any standard, Silverstone had obviously put on more weight than the public was used to seeing her carry, and this started a whirlwind of rumours which affected her personal life. She went on to hold several diplomatic posts, representing the United States in the United Nations in 1969-70 and serving as American ambassador to Ghana (1974) and Czechoslovakia (1989). Around the time in which she was featured as Batgirl in Batman, Silverstone was lambasted by tabloid media and mainstream press alike for putting on weight. She subsequently became involved in Republican Party politics under her married name, entering a Congressional race in 1967. Recently, she has extended her repertoir by working as a producer both in TV and film. Temple married the California businessman Charles Black in 1950; she may have looked favorably on his admission while dating that he had never seen any of her films.

Silverstone has continued to make a wide range of movie and television appearances, appearing mostly in comedy and action roles (she is widely known for her role in Clueless), although proving herself versatile enough to tackle the major Shakespeare production Love's Labour's Lost. Later appearances on television did not prove as popular as her films. She went on to star in three Aerosmith music videos, entitled Cryin, Crazy and Amazing which were hugely successful both for the band and Silverstone, making her a household name. Temple retired from film acting in her early twenties. She won a leading part in the 1993 movie The Crush, playing a girl who sets out to ruin an older man after her teenage crush is spurned, for which she won two awards at the 1994 MTV Movie Awards. The role of Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, played by Judy Garland, was originally intended for her. Born in London, UK, to English parents, her family moved to San Fransisco, California and she later attended school in Beverly Hills during which time she acquired some early modelling and advertising work, eventually getting the part of the 'dream girl' on American TV series The Wonder Years. By the late 1930s she was the biggest box-office attraction in motion pictures, and the success of her films may have saved more than one major studio from bankruptcy during the Great Depression.

She is also noted for her strong views on animal welfare and is a committed vegan. She subsequently starred in many films including Heidi, Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm and Susannah of the Mounties. According to critics, she has demonstrated a versatile acting talent in a range of parts, from femme fatale in The Crush to quirky comedy in Clueless. It was in that film that she sang "On the Good Ship Lollipop"; though she often sang in her films, that was probably her most famous song. She first came to widespread attention in the music video for Aerosmith's Cryin and later starred in several Hollywood motion pictures. One of her first film roles was in Bright Eyes, for which she won a special Academy Award. Alicia Silverstone (born October 4, 1976) is a British/American actress.
