A Star on the Rise: "Drop Dead Gorgeous" and Television Ventures

The year 1999 marked a significant milestone in Denise Richards' career. She graced the screen alongside Kirsten Dunst in the pageant satire "Drop Dead Gorgeous," portraying a spoiled princess. Her performance garnered praise from the Los Angeles Times, which described her as "as rightly nasty as she is pretty."

In 2001, Richards made guest appearances in the popular TV series "Friends," taking on the role of Cassie, the cousin of Ross and Monica Geller. Later that same year, she starred in several episodes of "Spin City" as Jennifer Duncan, a character who became the love interest of her real-life partner, Charlie Sheen.
