Biography
Born
December 18, 1976 (or 1973), in San Francisco, California, Leila
spent the better part of her childhood in Sebastopol, located
in California's wine and redwood country, a far cry from the glitzy
LA lifestyle she's now accustomed to.
Her
seemingly flawless genetic make-up comes from an interracial mix;
her father is Italian, her mother African-American.

Why
So Shy Baby ?
Another point of interest is that shyness was a major obstacle
in Leila's life, one that she tried to overcome by throwing herself
into high-school cheerleading. The plan obviously worked, because
soon thereafter she was out and about, and is now a much more
extroverted and self-assured person.
Although
her obvious good looks and Hollywood connection -- her mother
now works for Lucasfilm -- made her a prime candidate for the
spotlight, Leila initially opted for a career behind the scenes.
Upon graduating from high school, she moved to San Francisco,
where she dabbled with both graphic designing and photography
before becoming a make-up artist.
However,
upon being crowned Miss San Francisco in 1997, it was only a matter
of time before Leila would find herself permanently in front of
the camera lens. In fact, her repertoire as a model/actress grew
rather quickly, appearing in both commercials -- including 1-800-COLLECT
and Starburst -- and in music videos with the likes of Boyz II
Men.

All Work
and No Play...
Such
work eventually brought her to the attention of writer-producer
Tim Stack, who thought she would be perfect for his new series,
Son of the Beach, a parody of Baywatch. Arcieri won the role
of Jamaica St. Croix, thus allowing her to break onto the acting
scene.
That
same year Leila was selected as the Coors Lite Beer 2000 Spokesmodel,
and quickly solidified her position as a hot commodity within
the industry.

Roles,
Roles, Roles...
Her
other film credits include B-movies such as Hot Boyz, Foolish,
Beverly Hood, and Higher Ed. Leila also has her own online business
venture at www.exoticspices.net, a website featuring hot models
that she manages, proving that she's got a full plate on her hands
with many goals yet to fulfill.
Leila
is now romantically liked to one of the funniest most talented
man in showbiz today, actor-singer-comedian Jamie Foxx. Jamie
Foxx has stated that he is now ready to marry her. |

Very Pretty Woman
But
for all the fuss that is made over her red-hot looks, Miss Arcieri
says she doesn't want to veer off into the nudity arena and
pose for certain magazines. Instead, Leila looks to someone
like Julia Roberts for inspiration.
"She's
America's sweetheart, yet she hasn't had to become a sex symbol
or use her body."
Luckily
for Leila Arcieri, she too has enough talent to secure a very
promising future!
Leila
is busy auditioning for movie roles and was recently approached
by MTV to be a year-round VJ. We wish her all the best. |
