Friday Ladies Post - someone a little different

[Serena]

Some of you may recognize Lorenzo Lamas. He's one of those actors that has done a lot, but it wasn't in the movies I tend to see. lol

Anyway, I saw some really nice pics and decided to share. Here we go.....

Lorenzo was born on the 20th January 1958 in Los Angeles, son of Fernando Lamas and Arlene Dahl. He was raised in Pacific Palisades until the family moved to New York in 1968. He went to a private school, Admiral Farragut Academy, and graduated in 1975, after which he moved back to California. Encouraged by his father, he went to Tony Barr's Film Actors Workshop.

He started his career in 1976 with a small TV role. He began learning martial arts (karate and taekwondo) in 1979, and now has three blackbelts.

Lorenzo divorced his first wife Victoria Hilbert in 1983. After his whirlwind marriage to Falcon Crest publicist, Michele Smith, he was left with two children, daughter Shayne and son Alvaro Joshua (known as AJ, he is now 17 and doing modelling work).

On the 25th January 1985, he married his third wife Kathleen Kinmont, daughter of his Falcon Crest co-star Abby Dalton, at the Elvis chapel in Las Vegas. They were divorced in 1993, but continued to work together on Renegade.

Lorenzo married his fourth wife Shauna Sand on the 27th April 1996, at his mother's house. They have three daughters, Alexandra Lynne, born on the 22nd November 1997, Victoria, born 24th April 1999, and Isabella Lorenza, born 2nd February 2001. Lorenzo also has a son with another Falcon Crest co-star, Daphne Ashbrook, making a total of 6 kids - 4 girls, 2 boys.

Lorenzo also has a commercial pilot's licence - which comes in handy as he flies between Vancouver (where he films The Immortal) and LA (where he resides) each week.

OO LA LA!!
I used to love Falcon Crest, and I used to watch him on Renegade! What a cutie!!

 

[Gail T AGAIN]

Thanks, Serena, because of you I am going to have the best dream ever, he is really good looking

 

[Nikole]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh ok maybe that's a good way to soothe my nerves! Just drool over Lorenzo. (See vickylan's "ewww" thread for an explanation of my nerves.....) lol
THANKS serena!!!!!!!!!

 

[Sonya]

There's something about a man with long, dark hair......

Thanks for posting the pics! He's a dreamboat.

 

[Serena]

He gives me visions of becoming a biker chick. Let me clarify that, HIS biker chick.

 

[snoopy]

He's a hottie, no doubt, but you kind of have to wonder about a guy who's been married and divorced 3 times.

 

[oldkicker]

To paraphrase Bill Murray - "Quien es mas macho, Lorenzo Lamas o Fernando Lamas?".

Snoopy - Fernando was married four times. When he died he was married to Esther Williams. Seems that it runs in the family.

Thanks, Serena.

 

[wdw4us]

As the words of his father..............


You Look Marvelous....

Tall dark and handsome - ya baby!

[Blondie]

Thanks Serena!

I won't be going near that seed spreader!

I saw his dad on one of the Lucy reruns the other night (did you know they're all reruns now? ). He definately got a lot of his charisma and looks from Fernando.



Oops! Edited because I had the name Lorenzo on my mind instead of Fernando.

 

[snoopy]

I remember that I Love Lucy episode, browneyes! Isn't that the one where Ricky cancels their second honeymoon so Lucy makes him jealous by flirting with Fernando?

You are right, though, Lorenzo certainly got the luck of the draw genetically.

 

[browneyes]

Snoopy, yep, that's the one. Lucy's at the snow lodge and wants Ethel to take her picture with Fernando to send to Ricky to make him jealous. Fernando ends up skiing down the mountain with Lucy on his back, they end up in a tree. I just love Lucy.

Doncha just love genetics.

edited because I can't get those men's names correct

 

[CathyCanada]

Yum!!!! Nice to look at, but obviously not good at commitment!

insert sounds of someone just sighing deeply......

 

[nativetxn]

What a gorgeous man. His father wasn't too bad himself

His mother was considered to be quite a beauty for her time

The genetic combination had great results didn't it?

 

[helenabear]

Very nice Serena... thank you

 

[EROS]

Beautifully done, SERENA. Thanks for your efforts ......
