GOSSIP:	Was a print model for 5 years before becoming an actress. There is a Minneapolis rock and blues band called Budding Hollywood Starlet that is named in honor of her. She was in a memorable anti-drug commercial where she smashes an egg with a frying pan and proceeds to trash the room with the frying pan. Attended Minneapolis South High School, the same school as actor Josh Hartnett. She was recommended to the Producers of Dawsons Creek by TEXAS RANGERS Co-Star James Van Der Beek. She guest starred in 3 episodes with James Van Der Beek on Dawsons Creek. Her character's name, Laney Boggs in SHE'S ALL THAT (1999), is a combination of the names of two characters played by Winona Ryder: Kim Boggs in EDWARD SCISSORHANDS (1990) and Lelaina Laney Pierce in REALITY BITES (1994). This is an apparent nod to Cook's and Ryder's physical resemblance. Is a vegetarian. Owns her own production company called Ben's Sister Productions. Played the younger version of Parker Posey's character in THE HOUSE OF YES (1997). Posey plays the villain in JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS (2001). Noisy underground British artist 'Firexit' has created two songs especially for Rachael Leigh Cook. The two songs are called 'This is for Rachael Leigh Cook' and a rare acoustic track called 'Dear Rachael'. In a interview, Gareth Gerrard (aka Firexit) was asked about the songs, he replied Rachael is everything, I love her very much. Nominated in MTV Movie Award: Best Breakthrough Performance for SHE'S ALL THAT in 1999 Nominated in MTV Movie Award: Best On-Screen Duo for SHE'S ALL THAT in 1999 Nominated in YoungStar Award: Best Young Actress for TOM AND HUCK 1997 Appeared in Sixpence None The Richer's music video Kiss me with SHE'S ALL THAT costar Freddie Prinze Jr. Was paid $1,500,000 for JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS (2001) MORE RACHAEL LEIGH COOK TRIVIA
