Velazquez was born in Chicago, Illinois, of Puerto Rican descent. She attended Notre Dame High School for Girls, and has a BA in marketing. Her first acting role was a McDonald commercial as a drive-thru lady.She was also originally cast as Fernando Sucre's girlfriend Maricruz Delgado in the Fox television series Prison Break but acquired a role in My Name Is Earl instead.
Her latest roles were in the film War with Jet Li and Jason Statham, and in the Oxygen Network original television film Husband for Hire.She recently starred in the NBC series My Name Is Earl as Catalina Aruca. In 2006 she was ranked #54 in 102 sexiest women in the world,citation needed] and was named #39 in the annual Maxim Hot 100 list.
Though she remains best known for her role on My Name is Earl, Nadine Velazquez has started -- slowly but surely -- to branch out into other endeavors designed to establish her as more than just another pretty face. In addition to her appearance alongside Mario Lopez and Mark Consuelos in Husband for Hire, Nadine Velazquez has busied herself by taking on a small but pivotal role in an upcoming Christina Ricci comedy entitled All’s Faire in Love. The arrival of her risqué 2009 calendar indicates that Nadine Velazquez isn’t quite ready to completely abandon her sultry reputation, and we’re grateful for her willingness to capitalize on her jaw-dropping beauty.
There’s little doubt that maids the world over owe Nadine Velazquez a debt of gratitude, as the actress has single-handedly infused the profession with a jolt of unexpected sensuality with her irresistibly sultry work as Catalina on My Name is Earl. The NBC series has proved instrumental in cementing Nadine Velazquez’s reputation as one of the small screen’s sexiest icons, and her role in 2008’s made-for-television movie Husband for Hire effectively perpetuates that image. It’s certainly an impressive turnabout for an actress previously best known for appearances in entirely forgettable efforts, including 2004’s Eddie Griffin action flick Blast and the needless 2005 House of the Dead sequel.
