About Adrianne Curry

Born 1982. Adrianne Curry is an American film producer, actor, model and erotic photography model.

Career Modeling Curry won the first cycle of America's Next Top Model. In later interviews, Curry said that she did not receive the full prize package described during the competition. She stated that the Revlon component amounted to a paid makeup demonstration rather than a campaign and alleged that her relationship with. A former Wilhelmina vice president told that the agency had different owners and staff at the time and questioned whether it would have had an incentive to limit her work. Wilhelmina Models deteriorated after the series changed agencies for its second cycle. She was signed to Wilhelmina Models in New York City. She has modeled for several magazines, including Life & Style, Us Weekly, Star, OK!, Stuff, People, Maxim (and made the Maxim Hot 100 list in 2005), Spanish Marie Claire, Von Dutch, Von Dutch Watches, Salon City, Macy's, Famous Stars and Straps, Lucky, Ed Hardy, Kinis Bikinis, Beverly Hills Choppers, and Merit Diamonds. Curry's runway shows include Anne Bowen Spring 2005, Jaime Pressly, Pamela Anderson's line, Ed Hardy, Von Dutch, and Christopher Deane. She has appeared in a commercial for the Merit Diamonds Sirena Collection and ranked #100 on the Maxim Hot 100 Women of 2005.

Curry was a co-host on the television game show Ballbreakers. In 2006, she appeared on Gameshow Marathon as a celebrity panelist on the Match Game episode. She starred in "Rock Me Baby" (2004) and Half & Half (2003) on UPN. Curry also appeared on Dirt starring Courteney Cox,

She married Christopher Knight in May 2006, after meeting on The Surreal Life and having their relationship documented on My Fair Brady. In 2011, the couple announced their separation and filed for divorce.

Curry announced her engagement to voice actor Matthew Rhode on August 5, 2017. Curry later left Hollywood to pursue a "normal rural" life. Curry now runs her own lifestyle blog from her remote location. She and Rhode moved to Whitefish, Montana. They eloped in Glacier National Park in Montana on September 15, 2018.

Curry was raised as a Roman Catholic but later identified as an atheist during her marriage to Christopher Knight after they had debates over religion. As of October 2020, Curry has professed her belief in God and, although remaining irreligious, stated, "I will always have a place in my heart for the Catholic Faith and their lovely Cathedrals."

In 2024, Curry announced on social media that after being a "lifetime Democrat" she had left the party and endorsed Donald Trump. In explaining her decision, she said, "I'll never forget when they started pushing extremist views about gender, identity, and kids...and then GASLIGHT people about it. I'll never forget their campaign to convince Americans that being morbidly obese is healthy. I'll never forget that they robbed Bernie twice and later RFK Jr. Of that sweet democracy they claim to be for To INSTALL Hillary & Kamala. I'll never forget all the Trump media hoaxes I debunked in 2020 by watching the full unedited videos." She added that leaving the Democratic Party was like "leaving a cult."

In February 2023, Curry faced backlash after criticizing Melanie Lynskey's casting in The Last of Us—through a since deleted tweet, implying that Lynskey's body type made her unsuitable for the role of a villainous leader. Curry suggested that such a character should have a more traditionally muscular physique. Lynskey responded emphasizing that intelligence, not physical strength, defined her character, stating, "[The character is] supposed to be smart, ma'am. I don't need to be muscly. That's what henchmen are for."
