From background dancer to Las Vegas star: Before she became Mary Connell on NBC’s Las Vegas, this Los Angeles native could be seen shanking her money maker in Paula Abdul’s "Straight Up" video and Michael Jackson’s "Moonwalker."
Love is blind…or maybe it’s just her: The 26–year–old Cox is engaged to her 42–year–old former Unhappily Ever After co–star Bobcat Goldthwait.
When did you last have to say to someone, “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas”? I haven’t had a big, debaucherous trip there yet. I need to have a big, crazy, wild time, and I need to gamble. I’m a complete card–game neophyte, and I’m so intimidated by the tables. They scare the holy hell out of me. I don’t want to ruin the odds for the other players. A lot of these people are hard–core gamblers, and they’d be annoyed by some broad walking up there and ruining it for everyone. Someday, I’ll be brave enough.
Have you had any indecent proposals while in Vegas? No, but it has been assumed, on more than one occasion, that I was there for the porn convention, because they hold those there annually. So when people are drunk, they will occasionally come up and ask if I’m in attendance for the porn convention.
Well, you sure have the name for it. Don’t I? I would just add a couple x’s to the Cox. How perfectly porny!
