Jordan Elizabeth Ladd was born on January 14, 1975 in Hollywood, California. She is an American actress.

She got married, in 2001, to singer-songwriter Mr Conor O'Neill. They apparently live in a vintage Hollywood apartment that is said to have been built by silent screen star Rudolph Valentino.

She appears in many of her films with dark hair, such as The Specials and Never Been Kissed. However she seems to have decided to stick with her blond hair in recent films like Cabin Fever.

Drew Barrymore worked closely with Jordan in Never Been Kissed and showed a great respect for Jordan's acting talents as she later offered Jordan a role in her movie, the remake of Charles Angels in 2000. Jordan turned the film down as she wanted to break away from her mothers footsteps. The movie starred Drew, Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz.

The director of Cabin Fever, Eli Roth was so impressed by Jordan that he hired her straight away, after only talking to her for a while. He did not even need to audition her. He saw that she was perfect for the role of Karen. He stated that she was such a great actress that as soon as he signed her up for the film, more actors and actresses became interested in auditioning for the horror flick.

Jordan did not get involved in the Cabin Fever project for the money as it was a very low budget film. Instead she wanted to be in the film to demonstrate her talents. And she also found the script interesting and 'gross' as she told the Beneath the Skin documentary.

Jordan is a very professional actress and does not seem shy or afraid to appear in sex scenes in her films. She recently took part in a topless, fairly explicit sex scene in Club Dread. She has also filmed sex scenes in Nowhere and Cabin Fever. She is also confident with her sexuality in real life and is not afraid to show her body off, appearing in mens magazine FHM in saucy, revealing underwear.

Futhermore Jordan was voted as one of the world's top 100 sexiest women in Stuff Magazine. Jordan's hobbies include yoga, cooking and gardening. She was the winner of One to Watch at Movieline’s Hollywood Life 9th Annual Young Hollywood Awards.

She is good friends with Cabin Fever and Hostel Part II director Eli Roth. She is very good friends with actress Rachel True.
