[edit] Early Life

Baird got in to acting when her mother enrolled her in an acting class to help her overcome introversion. Later, she became vice president of her school's Thespian Society. At the age of 17, she moved to Los Angeles in hope of pursuing an acting career. To earn money while auditioning, she worked as a caterer, waitress and pre-school teacher until breaking in to the modeling industry, most visibly with Guess?. In 2004, Diora also started earning acting roles, such as a guest appearance on the Drew Carey Show and in low-budget films such as Brain Blockers and Deep Down in Florida.

[edit] Acting Career

After a successful run as a child and junior model, her physical development placed Baird at odds with her modeling agency[1]. Undaunted, she landed an appearance on the cover of the August 2005 issue of Playboy magazine, which succeeded in raising her exposure among both the public and industry alike[2] [3]. Her first major film role was Wedding Crashers in 2005, which she followed up with roles in If Love Be Blind and Hot Tamale. In 2006, she has appeared in four films, most notably a major role in the horror prequel Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning.

[edit] Quotes

  • "Everybody has a card that says they're a producer. I learned very quickly that if a producer wants to have dinner with me, he doesn't want to cast me, he wants to f-- me. If he wants to call my manager and set up a meeting, then that's another thing. You know what I mean?"[4]
  • "It wasn't until in the last year and a half that I started making fun of myself and the fact that I have big boobs. I never really was comfortable with my large breasts. And I went to the plastic surgeon, and almost got a breast reduction. I didn't do it, thankfully."[5]
