|
Nicole Avery "Nikki" Cox Mohr (born
June 2, 1978) is an American actress known mostly for her roles on the
television series Unhappily Ever After and Las Vegas.
Cox was born in Los Angeles, California, the daughter of Meredith and
Terry Cox, who is a personal manager. She has one younger brother, Matthew
Cox, who is also an actor. She began her career at the age of four when
she appeared as a dancer in several ballet productions and TV specials.
She began acting at the age of ten, making appearances in several movies
and guest starring on shows such as Baywatch, Star Trek: The Next
Generation, Eerie, Indiana, and Blossom. She also starred in General
Hospital from 1993 to 1995 and had a recurring role on the Saturday
morning program California Dreams.
Her appearances on various TV shows led to her first prime-time starring
role as Tiffany Malloy on the sitcom Unhappily Ever After, which ran on
the WB 1995–1999. Brother Matthew guest-starred on a handful of UEA
episodes, including one where he wore a "Ghostface" mask (ŕ la Scream).
When Unhappily left the airwaves after taping 100 episodes, Cox went on to
portray former prostitute Taylor Clayton on the sitcom The Norm Show and
star as Nikki White in Nikki, a sitcom vehicle that lasted for less than
two seasons (2000–2002). She starred as Mary Connell on the TV drama Las
Vegas from 2003-2007. On May 20 and May 23, 2005, her Las Vegas character
crossed over to NBC's cult-favorite soap opera Passions to coincide with
the arrival of two new characters introduced on Las Vegas.
She is currently the spokesmodel for online gaming giant Sportsbook.com,
and is working on Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust, an upcoming video
game, and Lonely Street, an upcoming comedy movie starring Robert Patrick,
Jay Mohr (her husband), Ernie Hudson and Lindsay Price.
After being romantically linked to Kevin Connolly, who played her brother
on Unhappily Ever After, Cox was engaged in 1999 to Bobcat Goldthwait, a
comedian more than 16 years her senior, who played the voice of Mr.
Floppy, a stuffed bunny, on Unhappily Ever After.
On December 29, 2006, she married comedian/actor Jay Mohr in Los Angeles.
In December 2008, Jay petitioned a Los Angeles court to allow him to
legally add Nikki's last name to his, changing his name to Jay Ferguson
Cox Mohr. |

"All that some actresses want
is for people to take them seriously instead of caring about how
