Gia Allemand (born Gina Marie Allemand, December 20, 1983) is an American swimsuit model, actress, consultant, and reality television contestant. She is best known for appearing in Maxim, and being a cast member on two ABC reality shows The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love and Bachelor Pad. Allemand is set to star in a new television series, and has been selected to play a role in an upcoming film about the life of Gianni Russo.
Modeling and acting
Allemand began modeling at a very young age. As a baby, she did Johnson & Johnson ads and also appeared as a Gerber Baby. As a teenager, Allemand initially never thought about a career in modeling. However, at age 19 her career began after she was asked to enter a swimsuit competition in which she ended up winning. Allemand finished second in the Miss Hawaiian Tropic competition and the Miss Red Hot Taj Mahal Super Bowl contest in 2005. Allemand is best known for appearing as a swimsuit model in Maxim in 2007. In 2008, she was named Miss Bikini-USA's Model of the Year. The following year Allemand placed first in the bikini short class of the NPC Arnold Amateur Championships. In addition to modeling, Allemand is also a professional modeling consultant currently working for Dream It Make It (DIMI). Her publicist, Penelope Jean, had offered Allemand the DIMI consulting job.
Allemand said in an interview that she has always had a passion for acting and performing. Allemand is a former professional ballet dancer. However, her dancing career was shortened after injuries to her hamstring and Achilles tendon. Nevertheless, she took acting classes in high school and college. Allemand attended the University of Hartford. In 2010, Allemand was selected to play a role in an upcoming film produced by Brett Ratner on the life of actor Gianni Russo. She was cast to play the supporting role of actress Ava Gardner, who was considered one of the most beautiful women of her time. Russo personally cast her for the role saying, "Gia looks a lot like Ava, but it's really the passion that she had that convinced me to cast her." Although it is a small role Allemand feels that she is destined to play Gardner whom after reading her biography has developed a "deep kinship" with.
Television
Allemand's work in television began when she was selected as a cast member on ABC's reality show The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love, part of The Bachelor series which first aired on January 4, 2010. The show placed her with twenty-four other women all contending for the affection of pilot Jake Pavelka. She was the second to the last one eliminated by Pavelka. On February 18, 2010 Allemand appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show where she discussed her life after being on The Bachelor.
Afterwards, Allemand joined the cast of Bachelor Pad, another ABC reality show in which former contestants from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette compete and play games for a chance at a $250,000 cash prize. The show premiered August 9, 2010 on ABC. Before appearing on Bachelor Pad Allemand was featured in a special edition of ABC's 20/20 Inside the Bachelor: Stories Behind the Rose. She entered the show as being the only contestant in a committed relationship. Allemand cites the relationship as the reason why she refused to participate in the show's "kissing contest" game which led to her elimination in episode three.
In November 2010, it was announced that Allemand will appear in a television pilot, produced by writer/director Michael Plumides, Bill Walker and Anne Saunders called GHOST TREK. The series pilot is a comic horror theme based on a paranormal reality show. Allemand will play the role of Shawna Leibowitz who is the girlfriend of Dr. Zeke Wallace (Michael Melendez), an ex-chiropractor turned paranormal investigator. Filming for the pilot episode began on December 10–13, 2010 in Charlotte, North Carolina. She currently works at Pure Barre Metairie in Louisiana.
