Regina Hall was born on December 12, 1970, in Washington, D.C. She graduated from Fordham University in 1992 and earned a master's degree in journalism from New York University before pursuing an acting career. In 1997, at the not-so-young age of 26, she began appearing in commercials, which served as a springboard into the film industry. Her rise to fame came with her role in the comedy-horror parody *Scary Movie*. Her recurring role in *Scary Movie* and its sequel, *Scary Movie 2*, showcased her ability to maintain a youthful appearance, as she played the high school-aged Brenda Meeks as a 30-year-old. Her first on-screen role was in the 1999 film *The Best Man*. In 2001, Hall's credits expanded to include her first television role as Corretta Lipp, a recurring role in several episodes of the prime-time drama *Ally McBeal*. Also in 2001, *Scary Movie 2* was released, in addition to the Mandel Holland comedy *The Other Brother*, in which Hall played Vicki. A year later, she starred in the action drama *Paid in Full*, directed by Charles Stone III. She later added to her filmography with roles in films such as *Malibu's Most Wanted*, *Scary Movie 3*, *Couples Retreat*, and *First Sunday*.
