Victoria Pratt

Pratt grew up in Chesley, Ontario, a self described "tomboy at heart." She attended the kinesiology program at York University in Toronto and graduated summa cum laude. Before starting her acting career, Pratt made a notable mark in the fitness world as a performance tester, working at the York University campus with various athletes including players from the Toronto Maple Leafs and San Jose Sharks, among others. After graduating from York, Pratt met Robert Kennedy, publisher of MuscleMag, who convinced Pratt to try her hand at modelling and acting. Pratt quickly found success as a fitness model, gracing several magazine covers (including MuscleMag and Oxygen) and working alongside future WWE stars Trish Stratus and Torrie Wilson.

Pratt eventually began to land starring acting roles on television throughout the late 1990s, including Xena: Warrior Princess, Once a Thief, Cleopatra 2525 (which she starred in for two seasons), and Mutant X (which she starred in for three seasons).

Pratt made her film debut in the 1998 film titled Legacy, alongside David Hasselhoff, directed by her future husband, T. J. Scott. Pratt also starred in several independent or small made-for-TV movies during the 1990s and early 2000s.

Pratt has since garnered a small cult following who recognize her large body of work as an actress in cancelled, but popular low-budget science fiction productions. There were several Tumblr fan pages and websites dedicated to Pratt. AskMen called her a "butt-kicking sci-fi queen."

Since the mid-2000s, Pratt has guest-starred on several hit TV series including CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2009), NCIS (2010), Lie to Me (2011), and Castle (2013). In 2006, Pratt co-starred with model Josie Moran in the film The Mallory Effect which premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival. The same year Pratt starred with Taye Diggs on the ABC television series Day Break (2006), which premiered on November 15, 2006.

Pratt has continued modelling throughout her career, being named Oxygen Magazine's "Cover Girl" in 2011. She is a published author of adult fiction, her first book being Double Down.
