built 254 days ago
Unforgettable as the tangerine-haired, gibberish-spewing extraterrestrial in 1997's The Fifth Element, Milla Jovovich found herself in an alien world when she moved to the United States from the Ukraine at age 5. Born in Kiev Dec. 17, 1975, to a Russian actress and a Yugoslavian doctor, Jovovich inherited exotic beauty that led her into modeling before she was a teen.

In 1994, Jovovich, billed under her first name, released the critically-acclaimed musical album, The Divine Comedy. Featuring pop infused traditional Ukrainian folk songs, the album led to comparisons with musicians Tori Amos and Kate Bush.[7] All the songs were written by Jovovich when she was fifteen, with the exception of a Ukranian folk song, "In a Glade", she covered. She toured the United States that years to promote the album, opening for Toad the Wet Sprocket and Crash Test Dummies, and playing smaller acoustic sets as well. Following The Divine Comedy, she expressed interest in releasing a second album, having ten songs ready for a future recording that was estimated for a summer 1996 release.[10][9] However, Jovovich has yet to release another album.

In 2006, Jovovich mentioned her interest in publishing her private diaries as an autobiography. She had kept a diary since childhood, writing about the locations she has traveled and "all the mad things that [she's] done". Jovovich has stated that she views publication as a way to "get it all into a book—like an autobiography", and it would have a "diary feel to it". However, she ... commented that she was "…not sure how interested anyone would be in publishing it, or reading it, for that matter."[86]
