Alicia Silverstone Biography

Alicia began working when she was six years old as a model. She later dropped out of high school and earned her GED because she wanted to focus her time on her modeling and acting careers.

Her first major film role was in the film The Crush in 1993. She became legally emancipated from her parents in order to work for longer hours on set.

Around the same time, Alicia starred in three Aerosmith music videos, “Cryin’,” “Amazing,” and “Crazy.” These videos were huge and made her a teen idol of the decade, although they were definitely controversial.

Shortly after her Aerosmith videos, Alicia got the lead role in Clueless that would define her career. Her performance as Cher Horowitz made the character an instant classic and one that’s still referenced all the time today.

Alicia starred in several other movies and TV shows throughout the ’90s and still acts today. She’s also an involved animal rights and environmentalism activist.

Fun fact: Clueless was recently adapted into an Off-Broadway musical starring Dove Cameron. Alicia has spoken about how much she likes the show and Dove Cameron’s performance as Cher.

Throughout her ’90s career, Alicia’s characters were fashionable and set some of the decade’s biggest trends. We all know that iconic yellow plaid outfit! Alicia’s style both on-screen and off still holds up today. If you want the always-trendy Alicia/Cher look, here’s how you can get it:
