It’s so funny how my teenager knows her as the Mom in The Secret Life of an American Teenager (a show she MUST watch every week) and obviously I remember her from the Brat Pack. Either way, she’s fab!

Fun facts:
Is fluent in French

Turned down the Julia Roberts role in Pretty Woman (1990) and the Demi Moore role in Ghost (1990)

Has very fond memories of Pretty in Pink (1986). She lists it as her favorite film, and says her kiss with Andrew McCarthy at the very end is her favorite on screen kiss.

She revealed at the 2005 MTV Movie Awards that she’s having negotiations about a sequel to Sixteen Candles (1984).

Confused and interested on that last one!
