Maxim magazine's Girls Jolene Blalock

















Jolene Blalock, born March 5, 1975 in San Diego, California, is an American actress best known for playing Sub-Commander T'Pol, a Vulcan in Star Trek: Enterprise. Prior to Enterprise, her highest profile role was playing Medea in a 2000 adaptation of Jason and the Argonauts.

A popular model, Jolene has appeared on the cover of many men's lifestyle magazines and is twice featured in Maxim magazine's Girls of Maxim gallery. She posed for a clothed fashion layout in Playboy in April 2002.

Blalock's 30th birthday on March 5, 2005, coincided with the filming of her final scenes as T'Pol. During the spring of 2005, she was quoted in a Toronto Star interview and at her Pasadena convention appearance as calling the Enterprise finale episode, "These Are the Voyages..." "appalling" although the reasons for this opinion were not initially reported. In a later interview, Blalock expanded upon this by saying that she was upset that the final episode focuses more upon characters from Star Trek: The Next Generation than Enterprise.

Blalock initially expressed reluctance to participate in Star Trek conventions, but made a first appearance at a convention in Pasadena, California in March 2005. Her second appearance was at an autograph signing show in Milton Keynes, England in late April which was soon followed by an appearance at a convention in Bonn, Germany and others. A self-confessed "Trekkie" and big fan of Star Trek: The Original Series, she was openly critical of Enterprise during its third and fourth season. She has stated that she felt that the show was creatively lacking, and that the show's producers were out of touch with Trek fans, although she called the fourth season a distinct improvement over what came before.

On April 30, 2003 Blalock, whose hobbies include surfing and art, married Michael Rapino, CEO of Live Nation. In a twist from usual convention, she proposed to him rather than the other way around.
