"Hailey Nichol", on Fox's
Newport Beach (2003).
So impressed by her talent and determination, Fox executives cast her as the lead role of "Tessa Lewis" in 2004's North Shore: Hôtel du Pacifique (2004). In 2005, Righetti ranked among FHM's 100 Sexiest Women while portraying "Jenna Moretti" in the popular drama, Réunion: Destins brisés (2005). She has since appeared in several major motion pictures, and has guest-starred in popular television shows such as Les Experts (2000) and HBO's Entourage (2004).
In 2008, Righetti was cast in the leading role of Michael Bay's remake, Vendredi 13 (2009), while filming her series, Mentalist (2008), for CBS. In 2009, "Friday the 13th" opened to the best 3-day weekend opening for any horror film, and "The Mentalist" won a People's Choice Award for Best New Television Drama.
