Lil' Blonde Darling: Cheryl Ladd!

Blonde Beauty Icon Cheryl Ladd

Once upon a time there were 3 little girls who went the the police academy.....and one of those girls was Cheryl Ladd! Given the daunting task of replacing superstar Farrah Fawcet-Majors after she abruptly left Charlie's Angels at the end of the first season, Cheryl won the hearts of viewers with her bubbly portrayal of Kris Munroe; the kid sister of Farrah's character Jill. She proved to be so popular with the public that she remained an Angel for the rest of the series run (1977-1981). Written as a gullible, naïve rookie, her character matured as the series progressed and she became quite assertive and glamorous. Frequently going undercover dressed in a string bikini, she somehow always manged to conceal a handgun. Now that's a real detective! Originally wanting to be a singer, Cheryl parlayed her newly found fame into a record deal and released a Top 40 pop album in 1978. When the series ended, Cheryl went on to act in over 30 made for TV movies and a few feature films, including the 1992 erotic thriller Poison Ivy starring future Angel, Drew Barrymore.
