Vanna White: Wheel
built 280 days ago
Although she divorced Los Angeles restaurateur George Santo Pietro in 2002 after 12 years of marriage, White is in charge of their two children - Nicholas, 13, and Giovanna, 10 - on a daily basis. Neither is impressed that their mom is on TV seven days a week and tapes episodes of "Wheel" on Stage 11 at Sony Studios in Culver City, Calif., a storied locale once inhabited by more stars than in the heavens.

White's popularity soared after the nighttime version of Wheel debuted in September 1983. Within a year, Wheel was the highest-rated syndicated program, in large part because of "Vannamania". Her 1987 autobiography, Vanna Speaks!, was a best-seller.[2] Also in 1987, she was featured in a Playboy pictorial, containing photos of White wearing see-through lingerie that were taken before Wheel.

Even now, with above-the-knee cocktail dresses and formal pantsuits among her "Wheel" fashion repertoire, White's image is practically an American institution. Fan letters describing bets on what color she'd come out in have been common.

White launched VannaStyle.com so her fans can view the exclusive, high-fashion apparel she dons for the tapings. Vanna's style motto is "you can never have too many accessories," and during her down time from Wheel, she's definitely dressed in a more casual mode, but still looks as great as she does on the set of America's favorite game show.
