about Milla Jovovich (born Milica Nataša Jovović Serbian/Montenegrin: Милица Наташа Јововић/Milica Jovović; December 17, 1975) is a Ukrainian-born American model, actress, musician, and fashion designer. Over her career, she has appeared in a number of science fiction and action themed films, for which music channel VH1 has referred to her as the "reigning queen of kick-butt".

Jovovich began modeling at eleven, when Richard Avedon featured her in Revlon's "Most Unforgettable Women in the World" advertisements, and she continued her career with other notable campaigns for L'Oréal cosmetics, Banana Republic, Christian Dior, Donna Karan, and Versace. In 1988, she had her first professional acting role in the television film "The Night Train" to Kathmandu, and later that year she appeared in her first feature film, "Two Moon Junction." Following more small television appearances like the "Fair Exchange" (1989) and a 1989 role as a french girl (she was 14 at the time then) on a "Married with Children" episode and film roles, she gained notoriety with the romance film "Return to the Blue Lagoon" (1991), the sequel to "The Blue Lagoon." She appeared in 1993's "Dazed and Confused" alongside Ben Affleck and Matthew McConaughey. Jovovich then acted alongside Bruce Willis in the science fiction film "The Fifth Element" (1997), and later played the title role in "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc" (1999). In 2002, she starred in the video game adaptation "Resident Evil," which spawned three sequels: "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" (2004), "Resident Evil: Extinction" (2007), and "Resident Evil: Afterlife" (2010).

In addition to her modeling and acting career, Jovovich released a critically acclaimed musical album, "The Divine Comedy" in 1994. She continues to release demos for other songs on her official website and contributes to film soundtracks as well; Jovovich has yet to release another album. In 2003, she and model Carmen Hawk created the clothing line "Jovovich-Hawk," which ceased operations in early 2008. In its third season prior to its demise, the pieces could be found at Fred Segal in Los Angeles, Harvey Nichols, and over 50 stores around the world. Jovovich also has her own production company, Creature Entertainment.
