Marissa Jaret Winokur

Marissa Jaret Winokur won a Tony Award playing Tracy Turnblad in the original Broadway production of Hairspray, a role written for an actress who could be funny and romantic without conforming to conventional leading-lady looks. She has worked steadily across television since, from Curb Your Enthusiasm to the sitcom Stacked opposite Pamela Anderson, and won the first American season of Celebrity Big Brother in 2018.
