| Leonor Varela exploded in America after her memorable portrayal of Cleopatra in the ABC miniseries of the same name. Since then, she's starred in Texas Rangers, Blade II, as well as a collection of French and Spanish films. Not surprisingly, she was voted Maxim's 11th hottest woman in the world in 2002. |
 |
| If being one of the foxiest women we've ever seen isn't enough, this Chilean-French polyglot overflows with as much talent as sex appeal. Whether in French, Spanish or English, when Varela is on the screen, we want to relish her with just as many tongues. |

Leonor Varela was exotic from birth: a blend of French and Chilean genes, she inherited the fiery spirit of Latin Americans with the brooding elegance of the French. And though she was born in Santiago, Chile, on December 9, 1972, her family fled to Costa Rica, leaving behind the brutal dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.
They stayed there for only one year and settled in Colorado for a few more, where the jagged peaks of the Rockies reminded them of their home by the Andes. As a little girl, Leonor got to see her homeland another time when her family returned to Chile.
But Varela's stay in Chile was brief, and she soon found herself in Germany, then back in Chile, and finally in France in her late teens. Likely tired of so much traveling, she decided to stay in Paris when her parents announced they were moving again. Varela attended college there and was strongly drawn to the arts. Dabbling in classical guitar, drawing, painting, and even some modeling, she found her calling in acting when she was 20. |
