Interesting Facts...
Her name is pronounced A-lee-see-ah, NOT A-lish-a.
Parents are English and she spent her early summers in England.
Apparently she did a little modeling at the age of 6 or 7 but did not cut it for her.
She also took some ballet and won 4th place at a contest.
She took a intensive acting class at 13 and later moved to Los Angeles.
She went to San Mateo High School.
Won 1994 MTV awards for 'Best Villain' and 'Breakthrough Performance'; just missed out on 'Most Desirable Female' (lost to Janet Jackson).
Her first commercial was for Domino's Pizza.
Marty Callner, the director of Aerosmith, liked Alicia in The Crush and she appeared in Aerosmith's "Crazy", "Amazing" and "Cryin'" music videos.
Recently went through the Forum workshop, where she became friends with Leonardo DiCaprio.
She also played a lesbian coke addict in a play "Carols's Eve."
Film roles she turned down or missed: Missed on My Father the Hero because she was a little bit heavy compared to Katherine Heigl. Missed out on Little
Women due to age. Turned down replacing Shannon Doherty on Beverly Hills 90210.
A review of Alicia in Hideaway , also from EW - Silverstone, the fetching ingenue from the Aerosmith videos, knows how to work her best feature, the
upside-down teen-doll smirk that lends her angel face just the right hint of womanly concupiscence.
Between the ages of 4 & 6, she secretly believed her mother was pop queen Olivia Newton-John and once danced to "Physical" atop her family's coffee
table
Became legally emancipated at 15 in order to work the grown-up hours required by The Crush's shooting schedule
She refused to appear nude in The Crush. A body double was hired for a couple of fleeting butt shots.
She has stood firm on her no-nudity policy, turning down the title role in the still-unreleased The Babysitter numerous times until the filmmakers axed all
nudity from the script.
Inquiries about Moize Chabbouh, a hairdresser and frequent set visitor in his late twenties whom Alicia has previously identified as her boyfriend, are
stopped cold. "He's not my boyfriend. He's just a friend." Filmography
