Tia Carrere is an actress best known for her 1991 role as “robo babe” rock goddess Cassandra in Wayne’s World. The following year, People magazine named Tia one of the the 50 most beautiful people in the world.
In order to land her role in Wayne’s World, Tia had to turn down a role on Baywatch. Now, as we know, a Baywatch role pretty much guarantees a Playboy spread somewhere down the line, but Tia was able to land a spot in the magazine without the help of David Hasselhoff and friends. Tia posed nude for the magazine in 2003, in what would become the top-selling Playboy issue of the year.
Tia Carrere has also posed for Maxim, and appeared in blockbusters True Lies and Rising Sun.
Unfortunately (for her, not for wagrankings readers), Tia was caught up in a bit of a scandal in 2001 when she was accused of having an affair with hockey player Tie Domi (she was named in the divorce papers filed by Domi’s ex-wife).

Pamela’s appearances in the magazine earned her a role on the mediocre sitcom Home Improvement, where she played the wrench-weilding Lisa on Tool Time. She followed up her role on Home Improvment with her most iconic role of all — that of C.J. Parker on Baywatch.
