RACHEL STERLING
Rachel Sterling can be seen on the big screen in New Line Cinema�s The Wedding Crasher�s with Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, as well as Stacy on NBC�s hit show Las Vegas. 2006 has already become a busy year for this versatile actress with several independents already under way. Rachel will also be launching her own rock & roll caberet act the �Sugar Blush Beauties� while participating in an untitled special project that is currently being developed.

Not long after coming to hollywood as a swimsuit/lingerie model in 2000, Rachel started taking acting classes at the Piero Dusa Consevervatory. Shortly thereafter, her acting career started to take off. On her first audition she landed the roll of Cherry in the film Tomcats. F.Gary Gray cast Rachel as Assia in the film A Man Apart with Vin Diesel. For her role, Rachel trained with choreographer Travis Pain and an Argentine tango instuctor.

The MTV generation got hooked on Rachel in the Shaggy video �Hey, Sexy Lady�. Highly acclaimed video director Dave Myers went on to cast Rachel in several music videos including: Kid Rock�s �American Bad Ass�, and �Feel Like Making Love�, Ja Rule�s �Between Me and You�, Velvet Revolver�s �Slither and Dirty Little Thing� and No Doubt�s �Hey Baby.� Dr. Dre took notice of Rachel�s dance style when he asked her to choreograph a dance number for the Source Awards,
based on her performance in his music video �The Next Episode.� Rachel used her dancing skills again to choreograph a sexy cheer routine for the �Back in the Mud� video for Bubba Sparxxx. It was no surprise when �The Pussy Cat Dolls� featured Rachel on a seven month run as their burlesque starlet. Rachel and the Dolls performed several shows at the Viper Room ( with Scarlet Johanson, Fergie and Carmen Electra), VH1�s Diva Live, and MTV�s Rock the Vote. Rachel also represented the Dolls as a celebrity model for the Rock & Republic runway show during fashion week in Los Angeles.

It was on the set of George Michael�s music video �Freek� that Rachel found her way into print work again. There, Rachel caught the eye of famed photographer Ellen Von Unwerth, who was so taken with Rachel that she was inspired to shoot a lingerie book. Since then Rachel has again and again graced the the pages of Maxim, Stuff, Italian Vouge, FHM and others in both the U.S. and overseas making her an international sensation.

Many fans remember Rachel from the Comedy Central series The Man Show with Jimmy Kimmel. She recently teamed up with Comedy Central again for a two season recurring role as Madam Carmel on Reno 911!

Although her family is deeply rooted in Texas, this exotic mix of apache, mexican and korean calls Los Angeles her home. Rachel lives with her dog zoe who has quite a modeling career of her own! Rachel and Zoe find time to give back to the community through charity work and fundraising.

And headlining the evening:

DIMITRI FROM PARIS, France

Compared to his cohorts in the new wave of French dance music, Dimitri from Paris looks much farther afield for his influences. While both Air and Daft Punk make much of their affection for the music of the 1970s (prog and disco, respectively), Monsieur Dimitri's inspiration comes from the Continental jet-setting faux-jazz of the 1950s and early '60s (exemplified by Dick Hyman, John Barry and Martin Denny), though the whole is updated by his long years of experience as a house DJ.
Based in France though he was born in Turkey, Dimitri entered the dance-music community during the mid-'80s by DJing at the French Radio 7. By 1990, his reputation had allowed him to record soundtracks for fashion barons like Chanel, Lagerfeld and Gaultier. He released two solo EPs during 1993-94, plus the mini-LP Esquisses, and contributed to the Yellow Productions compilation La Yellow 357. He also remixed hundreds of artists, including Bj�rk, the Brand New Heavies, New Order, James Brown and Etienne Daho. Dimitri's debut album, Sacre Bleu, appeared in late 1996, also on Yellow Productions. Named Album of the Year by MixMag, it sold several hundred thousand copies around the world and finally received an American release in early 1998. The 1997 mix album Monsieur Dimitri's De-Luxe House of Funk, however, showed the Frenchman coming back to his house roots. In lieu of a second production album, he mixed several more sets: A Night at the Playboy Mansion, and the BBE box set Disco Forever.
