Jennifer Coolidge
In 1999, Coolidge got her big break playing Jeanine Stifler, or "Stifler's mom" in "American Pie". The film was a box-office hit and took in a gross worldwide revenue of $235,483,004. In 2001, she reprised her role in "American Pie 2". Later in that same year, she had a supporting role in "Legally Blonde" as Paulette Bonafonté Parcelle the manicurist. "Legally Blonde" was a box-office hit, grossing US$96 million domestically. The film's box-office success led to her reprising the role in its 2003 sequel, "", but the movie was not as financially successful as the first film and generated mostly negative reviews. In 2003, she again played Jeanine Stifler in "American Wedding".
