"Actress and model" may be a common way to describe Hollywood starlets, but Gabrielle Union wears those labels with class. With beauty and grace, she has risen up through the dual battlegrounds of movies and TV while staying grounded and composed. Her most high-profile performances came as an anti-antagonist cheerleader opposite Kirsten Dunst in Bring It On (2000), as Will Smith's FBI girlfriend in Bad Boys II (2003) and as the first black love interest on Friends. Outside of acting, Gabrielle works as an activist and public speaker on violence against women, as she was a victim of a sexual assault in 1992.
