Lori Singer

Much like Jennifer Grey’s character as a rebel in Dirty Dancing, Lori Singer’s portrayal of a preacher’s daughter in Footloose, made her performance and dancing almost as noteworthy as Kevin Bacon’s. Singer actually beat Madonna for the part in the movie.

She was in the short-lived series VR.5 in 1995 and was listed as one of People magazine’s “Most Beautiful People” that same year. Singer actually left the acting world for a while to focus on her first passion, playing the cello, before appearing in 2011 as a guest star on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
