She did a stint on Silver Spoons too. Black Belt magazine has featured some celeb martial artists lately. One of the guys from the band Poison is into BJJ, Joe Rogan from Fear Factor was featured, I think he's a TKD guy. The actor who chucks electricity on Mutant X is into Shotokan Karate.

Rikki Rocket man! The drummer from POISON! the memories...the hair...the stonewashed jeans, leather jackets and women's makeup...all coming back...!!
Joe Rogan started in TKD, says he won a lot of tournaments and decided to switch to kickboxing for more of a challenge and full contact type of setting. now he is big into BJJ and pretty much any MMA in general. he did some commentary for UFC 40.

Descent fight scene in Grosse Pointe Blanc
"The goon stalking Martin Blank is Benny The Jet Urquidez, a world-champion kickboxer who was also John Cusack's kickboxing instructor."

For all the metalheads out there, Dave Mustane is a kickboxer.
Are you serious?:asian:
He was an eighth degree.
Yes, I made a lengthy post about it that was lost when we lost a week of posts. One of the grappling magazines had a picture of him and there was a martial arts special on TV (maybe on cable?) that quoted him. He's serious about it.
Well it is nice to know that the celebs are real people with real passions as well

Kelly Hu does karate and I got the impression that Wesley Snipes' studied other forms of MAs before. I believe that he mentions it in the commentary for Blade 2.

Hey, don't hog it up!
Didn't David Lee Roth study with Benny The Jet also?
Also Sasha Mitchell from Step by Step is a kickboxer I believe, and I thought Jessica Alba studied some kind of martial art, I know I saw her the the Ed Parker Internationals back in 1995.

Um...but anyway....yeah, David Lee Roth studied some form of Wushu. His arrogant little self has a video showing forms.
OH...Dan Danzig...he studied JKD
God how I wish "Dark Angel" was back on the air.

Do you mean Glen Danzig? or is Dan danzig someone I should have heard of
Don't forget Mcdonald Carry from Days of our lives fame studied with Mr. Parker. David Lee Roth also worked with Frank Trejo.
