Alicia Silverstone - As "Batgirl" !

I'm a big grrrl now (180 x 124), so call me Ms. Bat. Considering that just before this photo was taken, I was tackling oversized evildoers, dodging deadly ice-rays, and carooming off the sides of tall buildings, I think my hair looks pretty nice, don't you? (And believe me, getting your 'do to do right isn't easy in the Batcave. The lighting is terrible!)

ALICIA SILVERSTONE - (Batgirl/Barbara Wilson) catapulted to worldwide success with the comedy Clueless, written and directed by Amy Heckerling. Most recently, she undertook the first of two films under her production deal with Columbia Pictures, producing and starring in the romantic adventure Excess Baggage. Few actresses have the opportunity to gain the leading role in their first feature film, but Silverstone was chosen to portray the lead in The Crush, opposite Cary Elwes, and she won two MTV Movie Awards for that performance. Silverstone was born and raised in San Francisco and spent her summers in England, the native country of her parents, where her love for theater grew. She made her stage debut in Carol's Eve at the Met Theatre in Los Angeles. A ballet dancer since she was a young child, Silverstone attended her first acting workshop at the age of 13 and soon after was spotted by an agent at the showcase. Before she was cast in The Crush, Silverstone guest starred on The Wonder Years. Her additional feature-film credits include Hideaway, The Babysitter, True Crime and Les Nouveaux Mondes, directed by the renowned French filmmaker Alain Corneau. She also starred in the Showtime film The Cool and the Crazy, directed by Ralph Bakshi.
