Iconic Actress, 59, Is Unrecognizable 20 Years After Starring With Helen Hunt in ‘Twister’ originally appeared on Parade.
Jami Gertz was unrecognizable during a recent outing 20 years after starring with Helen Hunt in Twister.
During this past week, the actress, 59, was spotted while out and about in Los Angeles in pictures obtained by the Daily Mail.
Gertz, who also appeared alongside Molly Ringwald in Sixteen Candles, reportedly grabbed a bite to eat at the restaurant Alba.
For the dinner excursion, she rocked a black and white striped suit with floral embellishments and black shoes. The talent behind Twister’s Dr. Melissa Reeves accessorized with large, gold earrings, a gold necklace, black-framed glasses and a black clutch, wearing her natural gray hair down and tucked partially behind her ears.

In addition to starring in Sixteen Candles (1984) and Twister (1996), Gertz is known for 1987’s The Lost Boys and the TV series Still Standing. Most recently, she appearing in the 2022 film I Want You Back.
These days, Gertz has taken a step back from acting. She is married to businessman Tony Ressler—owner of the Atlanta Hawks—and they share four kids: Oliver, Nicholas, Theo and Abigail.
Gertz is now considered the world’s wealthiest actress because of her marriage to Ressler.
