Ronnie and I just had a discussion about how we both love Jennifer Tilly!
I thought yeah in the 80's she played some ditsy characters and might have been almost type cast....when her sister Meg was so dramatic. But there is something lovely and wonderful about Jennifer's voice and looks.
It takes a lot of brains to play dumb well!
Think how well Christina Applegate played Kelly Bundy??
Any thoughts? or favorites gang?
any actors male or female that had one surprising bimbo role in a plethora of dramatic ones?

Wasn't Jennifer Tilly on Hill Street Blues- married to that huge mobster guy? That is how I remember her. She was hilarious!

melanie griffith seems like she could play a bimbo easy

I don't think she would even need to act.

she seemed like a bimbo on working girl
i really liked her on body double though, made me laugh when she thought the woman was also in the business

Yes, she was on that show for a couple episodes in season five (1984-85) as Gina Srignoli, a mafia wife who would soon had an affair with Lt. Henry Goldblume (Joe Spano) and was later killed off.
