Born:
July 21, 1973 in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana
The 28-year-old Cajun was raised in seaside Breaux Bridge, La., the Crawfish
Capital of the World. Once she was all grown-up in an orange one-piece swimsuit,
she paddled off with the Miss USA 1996 crown. She has even done some laps
on TV in what else other than Sunset Beach, and her tidal turn on the small
screen took place in a laundromat. During last January's Super Bowl, she
wiped out viewers in an ad for Doritos Puffs: Two cool dudes try to impress
her with their prowess at catching the chips in their mouths, but Landry,
who studied tap, ballet, and gymnastics for 15 years, outdoes them with
a series of splits and leaps performed with a man-melting smile.
