Trivia: While many make a beeline for the stage from the time they're walking on two feet, James Lesure took a slightly more varied path.

He then traveled abroad, where he not only participated in stage productions of everything from Broadway musicals to Shakespeare, but also pursued his dream of being an amateur boxer. Settling back in the States, Lesure began making the rounds on TV, making small appearances on shows like NYPD Blue and Seinfeld. Then, in 2004, Lesure was cast as a member of an elite surveillance team on the hit series Las Vegas. Audiences loved his charming screen presence, and he stayed with the series for multiple seasons.

Trivia: The younger sister of actress Michelle Pfeiffer, DeDe Pfeiffer began making the casting rounds in 1984, just before Michelle matriculated to superstardom.

She has, however, been seen to good advantage in several A pictures, notably Into the Night (1985), Tune in Tomorrow (1990) and Falling Down (1993); in the opening scenes of 1991's Frankie and Johnny, DeDe has a piquant cameo as the cousin of the character played by her sister Michelle. In 1994, DeDe Pfeiffer was cast as Rachel Blanders, daughter of fortysomething actress Cybill Sheridan (Cybill Shepherd), in the popular CBS TV sitcom Cybill.
