Tiffani Thiessen

Highest Rated: 47% Hollywood Ending (2002)

Lowest Rated: 9% From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money (1999)

Birthday: Jan 23, 1974

Birthplace: Long Beach, California, USA

Going from all-American teenage superstar to respected, grown-up working actress, Tiffani Thiessen never lost the affection she earned from fans with her breakthrough role as Kelly Kapowski on "Saved by the Bell" (NBC, 1989-1993). The endearingly cheesy Saturday-morning show was a phenomenon, and Tiffani-Amber Thiessen - as she was billed then - was chief among its charms as a good girl whose relationship with Zack Morris (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) became a romance for the Gen-X ages. Easily stretching to play the devious vixen Valerie Malone, Thiessen revitalized a post-Shannen Doherty "Beverly Hills, 90210" (FOX, 1990-2000). She also starred in a string of made-for-TV movies and brought her next-generation-Heather-Locklear touch to many troubled series, including "Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place" (ABC, 1998-2001) and "Fastlane" (FOX, 2002-03). She worked with Woody Allen in his feature "Hollywood Ending" (2002) and settled comfortably into marriage, motherhood and a starring role on "White Collar" (USA Network, 2009-14). While she made her name as the queen of TV guilty pleasures, as an adult Thiessen proved she had talent and staying power to spare.

Saved by the Bethenny?

Jennie Garth and Tiffani Thiessen may be enemies no longer.

The actresses are igniting rumors that their longstanding feud might be over after posing together at a dinner party hosted by “Real Housewives of New York” alum Bethenny Frankel, 52, on Tuesday night.

The star-studded soiree, held at the Hotel Bel Air, was attended by some of the biggest Bravolebrities on the planet such as NeNe Leakes, Larsa Pippen, Melissa Rivers, Amanza Smith and Raquel Leviss.

Filling out the fun photo was “Clueless” actress Elisa Donovan, KIIS FM’s “On Air with Ryan Seacrest” co-host Tanya Rad and “DWTS” former pro Cheryl Burke.

“A dinner JUSTBcuz,” Frankel captioned the snap, which she posted on her Instagram . “Thanks for a beautiful night ladies…I’m still cleaning up all the spilled tea.”

That spilled tea may hold the key to the resurrection of the friendship between the former “Beverly Hills, 90210” co-stars and one commenter was quick to take note.

“Jennie Garth and Tiffani Amber Thiessen were at the same dinner?!” the Instagram user posted.

Garth and Thiessen’s relationship began on a bad note back in 1994. In an interview with  Howard Stern  in 2012. Thiessen opened up about how unwelcome Garth and Tori Spelling, 50, made her feel on set.

“The girls were not very nice to me when I came onto the show,” she said with a laugh. “Cause I kind of, sort of replaced Shannen Doherty, on the show when Shannen left. I think having somebody new come into an already successful, kind of, you know, show that’s run on its own, to have a new kind of energy was probably hard.”

Garth, 51, and Spelling echoed this sentiment during their rewatching podcast, “ 90210MG .”

“I remember, you know, then — not as I would think these ways now as an adult — but as a young girl, I remember thinking, ‘Yeah, why are they bringing this girl in? Like, we’re doing great. … Why is someone coming to fill the Brenda’s shoes?’ It just felt, like, I don’t know. … I didn’t get it,” Jennie said on the podcast. “And I was probably not that open to the concept. But it worked for my character, that’s for sure. … Kelly and Val never got along. … Kelly’s very intuitive about people and their character and she goes off her gut, and I feel like Kelly smelled a ratatouille.”

Even worse, Garth stated that Theissen’s presence on the show made her feel weird.

“It just was really weird watching Valerie in Brenda’s bathroom like that. My overall gut instinct — as a viewer, watching it and being connected and attached to the original cast and to Brenda and to Brenda’s bedroom — I was like, ‘Well, I don’t like what’s happening. I don’t like what my eyes are seeing. I don’t understand this. It’s upsetting me,’” Garth explained.

“And that she’s now going to be a bad girl instead of a main character that we love,” she contnued. “But do people come to love Valerie? … Did anyone ever feel the way they felt about Brenda about Valerie?”

Despite the initial bad blood, the actresses later became good friends and Theissen was even a bridesmaid when Garth married Peter Facinelli in 2001, but things turned sour once again when Spelling split from her first husband Charlie Shanian.

“It was a hard situation for everybody,”   Thiessen told Howard Stern  in a 2012 interview. “We were close with Charlie … my best friend was Charlie’s roommate. It was hard. We had a falling out, and we grew apart,” she said. “I was the one who was hurt, let’s just say that.”

But perhaps Frankel was able to channel her inner Nat Bussichio (the owner and operator of the Peach Pit diner) and help the ladies reconcile over some broken bread.
