Lela Rochon entered the show business when she was still in college. She was featured in a music video for Lionel Richie, “All Night Long” (1983), and from 1984 to 1986, she appeared in a series of Spuds MacKenzie beer TV commercials. A skilled dancer, she had extras in the musical film “Breakin” and its sequel, “Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo” (both 1984). Her 1st real acting job arrived when she landed a small role of Charlotte in the television film “A Bunny’s Tale” (1985), about feminist activist Gloria Steinem (played by Kirstie Alley) and her days as Playboy Bunny.
After completing her studies in 1986, Rochon could be seen making her feature acting debut in “Foxtrap” (1986), a low-budget step/drama starring and directed by Fred Williamson. Later that same year, she offered a volatile performance as a school instructor in the indie-comedy “Stewardess School,” by writer/director Ken Blancato. Rochon returned to TV by making guest appearances in such shows as “The Facts of Life,” “What’s Happening Now!,” “The Cosby Show” (all 1987) and “Amen” (1989) before starting a collaboration with Eddie Murphy in the blockbuster comedy “Harlem Nights” (1989), where she played Sunshine.
The 5’9” beauty opened the fresh decade by having episodic roles in the TV series “21 Jump Street,” “227,” “1st & Ten” (all 1990), “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” (1991), “Roc” and HBO’s “Tales from the Crypt” (both 1992). She as well supported Bud Spencer in the action made-for-TV film “Extralarge: Black and White” (1991) and rejoined Eddie Murphy for the successful comedy/romance “Boomerang” (1992), in which she played Christie, an appealing and dog-loving girl with hideous corns on her feet. In 1993, she appeared as Vanessa the Pretty Nurse in Robert Townsend’s fantasy, “The Meteor Man.”
1995 saw Rochon include a season regular role of Shawn Wayans’ girlfriend, Lisa, on The WB sitcom “The Wayans Bros.” She left the show after six months in order to focus her calories on movies. Her bet before long paid off when the determine actress experienced her screen breakthrough as Robin Stokes in the Forest Whitaker-directed “Waiting to Exhale” (1995), based on a novel by Terry McMillan. Costarring with Whitney Houston, Angela Bassett and Loretta Devine, Rochon’s performance received critical praise and she was handed an Image nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Motion Imagine and an MTV Movie nomination for Best Breakthrough Performance. The film became a storm hit in Hollywood.
Lured by the success, Rochon was flooded with a lot of offers. In 1996, she landed her first starring role in a TV film, “Mr. and Mrs. Loving,” where she was paired with Timothy Hutton to play a Southern interracial spouse in the 1960s who are incarcerated for crossbreeding. Also in that same year, she was cast as a government adjutant in the Chris O’Donnell/Gene Hackman starring vehicle “The Chamber” (1996), adapted from the John Grisham book of the same name directed by James Foley. Rochon further showcase her versatility with her subsequent film roles like as an exotic terpsichorean in “Gang Related” (1997, opposite James Belushi and Tupac Shakur), a firm vice president in Hark Tsui’s “Knock Off” (1998) and a schoolteacher in the biopic “Why Do Fools Fall in Love” (1998, with Halle Berry and Vivica A. Fox). She also starred as Sydney Banks in Monika Harris’ thriller “Legal Deceit”(1997), had a small role in the action/comedy “The Big Hit” (1998, starred Mark Wahlberg), played the mother of the titular character in the ABC TV film “The Ruby Bridges Story” (1998) and offered small, but notable role as Vanessa Struthers, the girlfriend of Jamie Foxx’s Willie Beamen, in Oliver Stone’s “Any Given Sunday” (1999).
Entering the new millennium, Rochon costarred with Kyra Sedgwick and Rob Morrow as a buggy very best friend in the drama/romance “Labor Pains” (2000). She then joined the cast of the Lifetime original series “The Division” in the recurring role of Inspector Angela Reide (2001). After a short break, she returned to feature film in 2004 in the romantic comedy “First Daughter,” which starred Katie Holmes. The film marked Rochon reunion with “Waiting to Exhale” director, Forest Whitaker. Two years later, she teamed up with John Diehl and Gregory Michael to star in the drama film “Running Out of Time in Hollywood.”
