Marisa Tomei

Marisa Tomei Spends a lot of time in the recent Sidney Lumet Film Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead (2007) totally naked. This offers an opportunity for women around the world to get an idea of how they should look at the age of 42. (At least, all women who have hit the genetic jackpot.) Thankfully, Marisa continued that approach with a thoughtful performance as a stripper in The Wrestler (2008), which unexpectedly resurrected Mickey Rourke's career.

Tomei’s breakthrough performance came in My Cousin Vinny (1992), for which she won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. After her Oscar win, she received a Screen Actor's Guild Award nomination for Outstanding Female Supporting Actor for Unhook the Stars (1996). Next, she received an American Comedy Award nomination for Funniest Supporting Actress for Slums of Beverly Hills (1998). She was nominated for a Satellite Award as Best Supporting Actress for What Women Want (2000).

For a time, Marisa's movie career went into eclipse, but she's bounced back strongly. She received a second Oscar nomination and a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress for In The Bedroom (2001). Tomei has also done substantial work in the theater, including taking lead roles on Broadway in Wait Until Dark and Salomé and many Off-Broadway plays.In 1996, Tomei made a guest appearance on the sitcom Seinfeld, playing herself in "The Cadillac, Part 1" and "2." She has also made an appearance on The Simpsons, as a movie star who falls in love with Ned Flanders.

Marisa was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in The Wrestler (2008).
