She was born to parents of English decent. her mother was Didi a former airline stewardness and father a real estate owner. A clear cut career was set up for Alicia at a very small age when her father noted how beautiful his daughter is. He started taking photographs of his daughter and thus started the modelling career for her at an age of eight. Alicia got modeling jobs for YSL, Levis' Dockers, and Marshall's. She also took some ballet classes and won 4th place at a contest.





She took an intensive acting class at the age of twelve (sources range from twelve to thirteen) from Judi O'Neill. While in Los Angeles for a showcase, Carolyn Kessler saw her and became her agent and later a good friend. She then moved to Los Angeles, where she attended Beverly Hills High School for a short time. Soon after hiring Kessler Alicia got the commercial for Dominos Pizza. Then she also grabbed a guest role in "Wonder Years". She then signed up for The Crush for which she won Best Villain and Breakthrough Performance at the MTV Movie Awards for The Crush. After doing The Crush Alicia made a couple movies for television: Torch Song and Scattered Dreams.





With her mind boggling performance in Crush Marty Callner, the director of the Aerosmith videos, was really impressed and he wanted her for Aerosmith video, Cryin'. Not only this he also signed her for two more videos "Crazy" and "Amazing". She then did Hideaway, Babysitter, True Crime, Le Nouveau Monde, and the surprise hit Clueless. Clueless was an unexpected hit, which catapulted Alicia's career. Alicia won numerous awards for the movie Clueless. After Clueless, Barry Josephon of Columbia Pictures signed Alicia to a two picture deal for $7 million. Alicia took less money so she could produce the films as well. The first film on the Columbia Pictures deal was Excess Baggage, which she produced with her First Kiss Production Company. Excess Baggage wasn't a huge hit at the box office.

The biggest example for the statement is the incident where Alicia found a dog that was hit by a car and was ill. Alicia took in the dog, Samson, and now it's part of the family.
