Let's make this birthday one to remember.

55 years old (Born on September 29, 1969)

Happy Birthday, Erika Eleniak! From your iconic slow-motion jog as Shauni McClain on "Baywatch," you've forever changed the way we view lifeguards—making beach rescues look effortlessly glamorous. Your memorable role not only defined an era but also set a high bar for swimsuit style that few have matched since.

And let's not forget your legendary Playboy feature in July 1989; you didn't just turn heads—you practically caused whiplash nationwide! Wishing you another year filled with laughter, success, and perhaps fewer dramatic ocean rescues. Keep making waves (pun intended), Erika—we'll always be watching... preferably from dry land!
