Bo Derek is an American-born actress, movie producer, and model. She was born under the sign of Scorpio on November 20, 1956 in Long Beach, California, United States. Her birth name is Mary Cathleen Collins. She is also known in the industry as Kathleen Collins.
The renowned Bo Derek graced as a featured Playboy Celebrity in August 1981. Her measurements are 36-23-36. Bo Derek has natural breasts, sparkling blue eyes, and luminous blond hair.
Bo Derek's claim to fame came through her iconic role in the 1979 cinematic masterpiece "10," where she starred alongside the talented British actor and comedian, Dudley Moore. This film not only showcased her acting prowess but also catapulted her to stardom as the embodiment of sensuality and beauty.
The movie's success extended beyond the silver screen, as it gave rise to a best-selling poster featuring Derek in an alluring swimsuit, solidifying her status as one of the most sought-after sex symbols of the 1980s.
Despite her early triumphs, her later films failed to garner critical acclaim or achieve significant box office success.
In August 1980, Bo Derek graced the pages of Playboy magazine for the first time, captivating readers with her undeniable allure. She would later return for an encore appearance in the September 1981 issue, further cementing her status as an enduring icon of sensuality.
In 1984, she embarked on a daring cinematic journey with the film "Bolero," directed by her husband. The movie delved into the exploration of the female protagonist's sexual awakening, taking her on a captivating voyage around the world in search of the ideal first lover to claim her virginity. However, the explicit and provocative nature of the film, complete with extensive nudity and controversial content, led to an X-rating—a classification typically reserved for pornographic or exceedingly violent horror films. Sadly, "Bolero" received lackluster reviews from critics and struggled to recoup its production costs at the box office.
