Lisa Stokke is an English actress and singer, active in both Great Britain and Norway. She has appeared in the first West End staging of the play Mamma Mia! in London, and later appeared in Guys and Dolls, and in the BBC television series Jonathan Creek. Her nationality is Scottish, as is her name, which is an anglicized version of the term “stanton”.
There are a number of facts about Lisa Stokke that are worth noting. She is not, according to some accounts, the shortest woman ever to be listed in the pages of Vogue magazine, though she might well be the tallest, and the only model in a recent issue with that title who is not in her thirties. She is not, according to some accounts, the oldest model to have appeared in a Vogue issue, though she may well be the oldest model ever to have appeared in a British magazine. She is not, according to some accounts, the largest model in a recent Vogue issue, though she is also not by any means the thinnest. She is not, according to some accounts, the lightest, or the biggest, or the most petite, or the most voluptuous, or the most toned, or the sexiest, or the curviest, or the bustiest, or the most well-endowed.
In a word, Lisa Stokke is very normal. She is beautiful, petite, and pretty, with a pleasing and relatively modest build. She has not, in any respect, reached the pinnacle of beauty that some of her contemporaries have attained, though she is probably still more than a little on the overweight side, and has never quite seemed to fully grasp the importance of shapely appearance for a successful career in the film industry. In some ways, her looks are apt for a person who works in a highly public profession, in an occupation where the object of attraction is as consistently exposed as face and body. But in other ways, she fits in far better with the personality of a private eye, and it seems that the transformation of Lisa Stokke from an extrovert who enjoyed plenty of dating chances into an accomplished woman is fairly recent.
