LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Everyone in Hollywood wants to be a multi-hyphenate, right? Everyone wants to show they can do it all. A key figure in that tradition is the model-turned-actor.

Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker continues her crossover this week with supporting roles in two very different films: "Battleship" and "What to Expect When You're Expecting."

— Milla Jovovich: Born in Kyiv, she was spotted at age 11 by famed photographer Richard Avedon, who featured her in Revlon's "Most Unforgettable Women in the World
" ads. Jovovich went on to appear on dozens of magazine covers and in campaigns for several brands including Banana Republic, Donna Karan, Gap and Versace. But she's also carved out a major acting career as star of the sci-fi "Resident Evil" series (directed by her husband, Paul W.S. Anderson) and has appeared in films as varied as "The Fifth Element" ''He Got Game" and "Stone." But she still keeps a hand in fashion, in recent years serving as co-designer for the clothing line Jovovich-Hawk and sitting in the front row of shows for Chanel, John Galliano and Nina Ricci. (Jovovich also recorded her first album when she was just 16. But that's a whole 'nother list.)
