You know her as: Marilyn Monroe in the TV miniseries Blonde. “It’s odd,” she says, “because I don’t think I look like her, though people used to say, ‘You kinda look like Marilyn before she was Marilyn.’ It’s the whole Norma Jean thing.”
New show: Without a Trace, where each week an elite FBI team hunts down missing persons, kidnap victims, and other unlucky folks who’ve dropped off the radar. We can’t wait for the Corey Haim episode. (CBS)
She plays: Samantha Spade, a brash young agent. “I’m a gun-toting babe!” enthuses Poppy. “Samantha is an observer, which is different, because I’ve never had to be so still. But she wants to move up in the ranks.”
Pulp diction: “Some people get it, some people don’t,” Poppy says of her character’s private-eye-homage moniker. But no one’s allowed to call her Sam, except her boss on the show. “She doesn’t like it.”
Speaking of names: Not only is Poppy’s middle name Petal, her flower-fixated mom dubbed her sisters Rosie Thorn, Daisy Yellow, Marigold Sun, and Lily Belle.
