This article appeared in thefashionball.com and has been published here with permission.Quirky and often inappropriate comedies are a tradition in Hollywood, but in the late ’90s, they became an escape, and many of these films were released and produced. Of course, the popularity of this type of movie may never have reached the plateau it has if not for American Pie and its subsequent films. These movies launched a ton of young actors into stardom, and we thought it would be cool to look at where our favorite stars from the American Pie films are now.
Arielle Kebbel – Elyse
Elyse was Matt Stifler’s love interest in the film and was played by Arielle Kebbel. Elyse was the lead drummer in the band, and though they started off hating each other, she and Matt fell for each other.
The young actress has had a stellar career since. She has had roles in movies like Aquamarine and John Tucker Must Die. She has also had success in television, with roles in The Vampire Diaries, Ballers, and most recently, LincolnRhymes: Hunt For the Bone Collector.
Katrina Bowden – Mia
In American Reunion, Oz brings his girlfriend Mia, a supermodel, with him. This role was played by the stunning Katrina Bowden.
Though the role was small, the actress was able to use it to propel her to an even more iconic role, Cerie, the assistant on 30 Rock. Besides this role, she has most recently been enjoying time as Flo Fulton on The Bold and the Beautiful.
Lisa Arturo – Amber
Amber was the best friend of Danielle and the young lady that they thought was in love with her best friend. The role of Amber was sort of small but very memorable. Actress Lisa Arturo would take this small part and parlay it into more roles.
She had roles on shows like Joey and CSI. Her most recent role has been on TV, where she has had bit parts on General Hospital and Ballers. She also has the main role in the television series The Virtual End.
