PROPS: Ali set off the sprinklers in our pants as the hot-and-spicy “Doritos Girl” during the 1998 and 1999 Superbowls. But she was doing a number on us before that when she snagged the crown of Miss Louisiana and Miss USA in 1996.

THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO LOUISIANA SINCE CAJUN FOOD: On July 21, 1973, Southern belle Ali was born in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.

SAY IT AIN’T SO, PREPPY: Ali’s love interest is former Saved by the Bell star Mario Lopez.

ALI VS. MISS NEW JERSEY: “I’ll never forget her. She was just one of those girls who was so…competitive. She used to work out naked in her room, just to intimidate other girls.”

“Sexuality is part of a woman’s power. I fought it for a while, but I’ve accepted the fact that I am a girl and people think I’m attractive.”
