Elaine Hendrix: From 'The Parent Trap' to Dancing With The Stars!
EXCLUSIVE: Dynasty's Alexis Colby Sizzles on Dancing With The Stars - See Her Sultry Photos!
Get ready for a dose of 80s glamour and scheming drama as Dynasty's Alexis Colby, played by the incomparable Elaine Hendrix, sashays into the latest season of Dancing With The Stars. And trust us, folks, she's bringing the heat!
This Tennessee native has been making waves in Hollywood since her breakthrough role in the iconic 1980s teen comedy Romy & Michele's High School Reunion. But it was her stint as the villainous Alexis Colby on the hit reboot of Dynasty that cemented her status as a television darling.
Now, at the ripe age of 54, Elaine is trading in her power suits for sequins and jazz hands as she takes to the Dancing With The Stars dance floor alongside professional dancer Alan Bersten. And let's just say, she's still got it!
But don't just take our word for it - check out these sultry new photos of Elaine showing off her curves in a sizzling blue number that will leave you breathless.
And if you're wondering who else is joining the dance competition this season, fear not! TheScholarlyNote.com has got the scoop. Joining Elaine on the show are a bevy of talented celebrities, including Hilaria Baldwin, Jordan Chiles, Baron Davis, Dylan Efron, Corey Feldman, Danielle Fishel, Scott Hoying, Lauren Jauregui, and Andy Richter.
And if that weren't enough, we've also got some juicy behind-the-scenes gossip for you. Elaine recently reunited with her Parent Trap co-star Lindsay Lohan on the Disney smash hit Freaky Friday, but she wasn't exactly thrilled about a potential reboot of the classic 90s film.
"I think it should be left alone," Elaine told ExtraTV back in 2022. "But if it's going to be rebooted, then yeah, I think we absolutely should be a part of it." Ouch! Guess someone didn't want to give up their claim to fame just yet!
But in all seriousness, Elaine has had an illustrious career spanning over three decades and counting. From starring alongside Denis Leary in projects like FX's Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll to collaborating with Ethan Hawke on the acclaimed film Adopt a Highway, this girl can act!
And don't even get us started on her impressive resume of television credits, including fan-favorite shows Friends, Two and a Half Men, CSI, Criminal Minds, NCIS: Los Angeles, and Transparent. We're talking Oscar-worthy performances, folks!
But what really sets Elaine apart from the rest is her ability to tackle complex characters with ease. Take her iconic role as Meredith Blake in The Parent Trap, for example - it's a part that has spanned generations and earned her a special place in our hearts.
"I love that people love Meredith Blake and love The Parent Trap still," Elaine gushed. "I've done over 150 individual TV and film productions and it's still by far one of my most favorites and certainly one of the ones I'm most recognized for." Ah, who can blame them? It's a movie that has captured the hearts of audiences worldwide!
And speaking of heartthrobs, did you know that Elaine is not only a talented actress but also a dedicated producer? She's currently co-producing the buzzworthy off-Broadway sensation Ginger Twinsies and will soon be taking on the role of Dolly Levi in OFC Creations Theatre Center's 2026 production of Hello, Dolly!
But don't get too caught up in her theatrical pursuits just yet - Dancing With The Stars is about to heat things up with Elaine at its center! So mark your calendars for Tuesday, September 16th when the show premieres live on ABC and Disney+, or catch it next day on Hulu. Trust us, you won't want to miss this!
