Tricia Helfer, Battlestar Galactica
Tricia Helfer may be known as Number Six on Battlestar Galactica, but we think she could be Number 1. You don’t have to be a science fiction nerd to be hot for this star.

Today, on April 11 2009, our favorite actress Tricia Helfer turns 35! Congratulations, Tricia, from your friends and fans at Tricia Helfer Fan. Have a good one!

Looks like it’s that time of the year again! FHM has opened voting for their annual Sexiest Women in the World poll, and Tricia Helfer is once again one of the candidates for the title. Last year, Tricia placed 73rd on the list, a notch higher from her 2007 listing of 79th — let’s vote her higher this year, y’all! Please visit FHM.com to vote Tricia FHM’s Sexiest Woman in World 2009! You know she is a stunner. Description from FHM.com:

I ride a Harley and it gets you a lot of attention from men, but the only people who seem to recognise me are guys at the fishmarket or guys in the pharmacy…”

Part Norwegian, part Swedish and – less pleasingly – part German, blonde Canadian actress Tricia Helfer was always going to be a looker (or just extremely efficient/good at skinning whales), so it’s not much of a surprise that she was spotted aged 17 by a model scout while queuing to see a film.

By 2002, she was bored of mincing for photographers and moved to LA where she started acting, achieving considerable fame as the seductive platinum blonde Number Six in Battlestar Galactica. Six is a robot, but the kind of robot you’d give your liver for – tall, sultry and probably programmable to do all sorts of illegal stuff. Kindly, Trish posed topless in the February 2007 issue of Playboy.

Clothes Off Our Back is auctioning off Tricia Helfer’s amazing 2008 Primetime Emmy Awards gown by designer Tadashi Shoji on their website. The current high bid is at USD 750, and you have until March 10, 2009 to place your bid — that’s in three days. Hurry, hurry! Check out medium- and hi-res photos of Tricia in this stunning red Shoji number at our gallery.

The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation is a 501c3 organization that hosts charity auctions showcasing today’s hottest celebrity attire. Items are put up for bid to the public with proceeds going to benefit children’s charities. Clothes Off Our Back was founded by actors and philanthropists Jane Kaczmarek (Malcolm In The Middle, Raising the Bar) and Bradley Whitford (The West Wing, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip) whose efforts, along with their celebrity and designer friends have helped improve the lives of children across the globe.

Things are admittedly quiet with Tricia right now. Keep in mind, however, that things will definitely turn around this upcoming January, with Tricia’s regular appearances on Sci Fi’s Battlestar Galactica and USA Network’s Burn Notice. Here’s a little something to keep you warm whilst awaiting the upcoming seasons of both series respectively: Maxim magazine has named Tricia Helfer’s sexy and manipulative humanoid Cylon Number Six on the aforementioned acclaimed Sci Fi series as one of their “Hottest Women of Fall TV ‘08″. From Maxim.com:

The Hottest Women of Fall TV ‘08
As fall turns to winter, the temperature outside seems to drop in direct correlation to the rising hotness of the woman appearing on our TV screens. It’s science.

Number Six (Tricia Helfer), Battlestar Galactica
Tricia Helfer’s got those eye-popping curves and golden locks that harken back to simpler days, when any leading lady gracing the screen had to be a flat-out sexpot. And as an ageless “Cylon” on the Battlestar Galactica reboot, Helfer proves once again that, yes, our therapist was right, we have a robot sex fetish.

The 2008 Gemini Awards winners have been announced, and unfortunately Tricia is not among them. Tricia was nominated for Hottest Canadian Female Star among many other Canadian celebrities, and visitors were allowed to vote on their favorites on the Gemini Awards website (i.e. Viewers’ Choice Award). The award, however, went to MuchMusic VJ Leah Miller. Check out all the winners at GeminiAwards.ca!

The first photos from the event have already surfaced online, and unfortunately Tricia is not among those photographed, which leads us to assume she did not attend the event. What a shame!

Great news! Tricia is nominated for Hottest Canadian Female TV Star at this year’s Gemini Awards! The competition she is up against includes Shenae Grimes, Natasha Henstridge, Kim Cattrall, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Mia Kirshner, Trish Stratus, as well as Tricia’s Battlestar Galactica co-star Grace “Sharon” Park. Go vote now! From GeminiAwards.ca:

Come back November 17 when the Top 5 Females & Top 5 Males are determined, and keep supporting your favourite! Don’t forget to watch the 23rd Annual Gemini Awards Friday, November 28th, 2008 on E! Everything Entertainment & Showcase, when your picks for the Hottest Canadian Female TV Star & Hottest Canadian Male TV Star will be announced!

Tricia’s previous appearance at the annual Gemini Awards is dated November 4 2006. Perhaps if she wins she’ll be attending this year, too = new photos! So go. Vote. Now.

Unfortunately, despite our high hopes, Tricia was evidently not present at yesterday’s 2008 Spike TV Scream Awards in Los Angeles, California. The first photos of celebrities attending the event have already surfaced online, and unfortunately Tricia is not among them. Sorry, guys!

Furthermore, Tricia was nominated for the Best Actress (Science Fiction) Scream Award for her portrayal of humanoid Cylon Number Six on Sci Fi’s Battlestar Galactica. The award, however, went to actress-model Milla Jovovich for Resident Evil: Extinction. Battlestar Galactica was regrettably unsuccessful in the other two categories the series was nominated in as well; while the award for Best TV Show went to Showtime’s Dexter, the Best Actor (Science Fiction) award for which Edward James “Admiral Adama” Olmos was nominated went to Iron Man-star Robert Downey Jr.

Just a friendly reminder to everyone that the 2008 (i.e. the 3rd Annual) Spike TV Scream Awards will be taping today, October 18 at The Greek Theater in Los Angeles, California. The taped event will premiere on Tuesday, October 21 at 9:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT on Spike TV. Although we have no official confirmation on whether Tricia will be attending the event or not, her Scream Award nomination and the fact that she also showed up at the 2006 and 2007 Scream Awards does inspire hope. Stay tuned for updates!

Tricia, co-star Edward James Olmos and Battlestar Galactica are nominated for Best Actress (Science Fiction), Best Actor (Science Fiction) and Best TV Show respectively. Voting has unfortunately closed as of yesterday; fingers crossed the Battlestar Galactica team is among the winners!

Yayness! According to Spike.com, Sci Fi’s Battlestar Galactica — Tricia included — has received three nominations at this year’s 2008 Spike TV Scream Awards! Please go to Spike.com to cast your vote for Tricia and Battlestar Galactica. These are the categories the show is nominated in:
