Anderson has starred in a number of movies as well, including "Barb Wire," "Scary Movie 3," "Borat," "Superhero Movie" and "Blond and Blonder." 

Intertwined with Anderson's modeling and acting work was her very public relationship with Tommy Lee. The pair's relationship had a quick start, with the two getting married just four days after they met in 1995. 

Anderson and Lee's relationship was full of scandal. They became the center of controversy soon after they wed, when a stolen sex tape of the couple was widely released. 

Anderson and Lee officially divorced in 1998, although they did have an on-again, off-again relationship following their divorce. During their time together, they welcomed two children, Brandon Thomas and Dylan Jagger. Right before their divorce, Lee was arrested and sentenced to six months in jail on spousal abuse charges. 

Anderson has had three husbands since Lee: Kid Rock, Rick Salomon and Dan Hayhurst.
