From Big Sky to Big Laughs
Rebecca got her start as a Playboy Playmate, capturing the nation’s attention with her unforgettable looks. But she wasn’t content to just turn heads in magazines. Hollywood soon came calling. She was the señorita who kissed Martin Short's character at the end of Three Amigos.

Rebecca also made her mark in Beverly Hills Cop II, where she appeared as a Playmate in a scene that oozed 1980s decadence. While her role was brief, she was impossible to miss.

The Ace Ventura Moment
Fast forward to 1994, when Rebecca popped up in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, alongside the comedy GOAT, Jim Carrey. She played a character simply known as “Sexy Woman” (you know Hollywood in the ’90s), hiring Ace to find her missing Shih Tzu. The scene makes for one of the funniest punchlines in the movie.

So, whether you’re flipping through vintage Playboy or catching a laugh-out-loud comedy, give a nod to Rebecca Ferratti...A Montana treasure who added just a touch of homegrown magic to Hollywood.
