Born April 14,
1977 in New
York City, Sarah Michelle
Gellar has become sort of
a pseudo 'feminist'
for her generation,
although she cringes at
the word herself.
But
her role as a beautiful
female who kicks ass on
television certainly has
made herself a role model
to her female
generation.
While
many
of Gellar's scenes as
Buffy in Buffy the
Vampire Slayer use
stunt double Sophia
Crawford, Gellar does
carry a brown belt in Tae
Kwon
Do. Sarah was seen on TV
as early as three years
old, where she played
Valerie Harper's daughter
in An Invasion of
Privacy, a made for
TV movie. At four, she was
part of the infamous
burger wars playing in
a commercial for Burger
King which mocked the size
of McDonald's burgers.
Afterwards, she appeared
in scores more
commercials, which also
helped
land her roles in movies
like
Over The Brooklyn
Bridge, Funny
Farm, High
Stakes, and TV's
Spencer for Hire.
Further
roles include A Woman
Named Jackie and Swan's
Crossing. At
the age of 16, Gellar
played as a 22 year old
(!) in All My Children.
She played as Erica Kane's
(Susan Lucci) daughter,
and was in a role which
had her seduce her
stepfather, break up her
mother's marriage,
shooting
people, and faking
pregnancies! The role got
her something Susan Lucci
almost never did, an Emmy
in 1994 for Outstanding
Younger Actress. Perhaps
that award played a role
in Lucci's despising of
the young star, which
comes as a shock since
Gellar is supposedly the
only person on the
All
My Children cast
which Lucci clashed with.
1996 Brought
on her most
well known roll, cast as
Buffy in Buffy the
Vampire Slayer,
which
was based on the movie
that starred Kristy
Swanson. Buffy has
become sort
of a cult favorite and
gets decent ratings
despite being relegated
to the
WB Network. Her starring
role has helped her land
jobs in I Know What
You Did Last Summer
and Scream. In
1999 she played in the
comedy
Simply
Irresistible. Its
ironic given that Gellar
is apparently anything
but
irresistible according
to gossip which suggests
she has running feuds
with
not only Lucci, but Neve
Campbell, former lover
Matthew Perry, Julia
Roberts,
and The Spice Girls (we
can forgive her for
that!). The latest feud
apparently
exists with fellow WB
star Kerri Russell, whom
Gellar says she's sick
about
hearing Russell's story
of losing her virginity
in the press, a
statement
we'd wholeheartedly
agree with!
You probably
can also add
actress Ingrid Quinn to
that list, who's
marriage to David
Boreanaz was
supposedly terminated
due in large part to a
reported affair he had
with
his then Buffy co-star
(he played Angel,
recently spun off). It
also has
been widely reported
that Gellar has had an
on and off battle
with
anorexia, and with a 5'3
frame at a reported 98
pounds, its easy to
understand
why those rumors
persist. Besides her
romantic ties to Mathew
Perry and
Boreanaz, Gellar has
also been linked to
ex-Slider star Jerry
O'Connell
and has dated tennis
player Jan Michael
Gambill. The latest man
involved
with Sarah is Freddie
Prinze Jr., who
publically was
slobbering all over
Prinze at the MTV Movie
awards, where Sarah
landed two awards for
Best
Kiss (with Selma Blair)
and Best Female
Performance in the film
Cruel
Intentions.
There have been alot of
stories of Sarah's
controlling
behavior around Freddie
that has resulted in
concerns amongst his
friends
(according to tabloids,
anyways). But before we
get too rough on Sarah,
it should be noted that
she is not the wild
party type and in fact
spends
so much time working she
hasn't had much time for
relationships, often
working 15 hour days on
the Buffy set.

January 21, 2008 - Sarah
Michelle Gellar spoke with Radar
magazine for their February 2008
issue,
where the actress talked about
being a child star. "As a kid,
performing
was my passion, but it wasn't at
the forefront of my life," she
said. "I
wasn't a child star, I was a
working child actor. So I got more
from seeing
other actors who had missed their
childhoods." As for portraying a
porn
star in her latest flick, she
said, "With 'Southland Tales',
playing a
porn star, being in an ensemble
cast, all those things were
experiences,
obviously, that I'd never had.
Coming out in the wardrobe alone
some days
was enough of a challenge just
getting out of my trailer."
