Blessed with knockout good looks, Famke Janssen was born in Amsterdam, Holland, on Nov. 5, 1965, and began modeling at a young age. Her decision to enroll in an acting workshop at Columbia University opened doors to star opposite Jeff Goldblum in Fathers & Sons (1992), and she soon appeared on television in "Melrose Place" and the made-for-TV actioner Model by Day (1994).Janssen hit her cinematic stride with 1995's GoldenEye, playing villainess Xenia Onatopp -- a woman whose beauty proved deadly.
