Biography

About Jaime King

Edited by the community

Jaime King is an American actress, model, influencer, producer, and writer. Born in Omaha, Nebraska, she started her career at age 14 in 1993 and has been active for over three decades. King's path to fame began in modeling, where she appeared in Vogue, Mademoiselle, and Harper's Bazaar. She was a Victoria's Secret model, a role that helped launch her into acting. Her first larger film role came in Pearl Harbor (2001), followed by her first starring role in Bulletproof Monk (2003). She gained wider recognition with Sin City (2005) and reprised her role in its sequel. Complex magazine once called her "one of the original model-turned-actresses."

King's early modeling career involved a name change; she went by Jamie King and James King, the latter a childhood nickname from her parents. This was because her agency already represented another Jaime, the more famous supermodel Jaime Rishar. This led to her being sometimes called the "Model with a man's name." Her personal life is grounded in Omaha, where her parents, Nancy, a beauty queen, and Robert, separated in 1994 and divorced amicably in 1995. They continue to work together renting out low-income apartments. King attended Nancy Bounds's Studios modeling school and later dropped out of Westside High School in 1995 to pursue modeling in New York, finishing her studies through a home-study program from the University of Nebraska. Standing 5'8" with blonde hair and blue eyes, King has natural curves and a slim build. Her tattoos include two fairies on her lower back and a diamond on one wrist. She has amassed 1.5 million followers on Instagram.
