Barbara "Bobbi" Billard (born December 12, 1975 in Austin, Texas) is a female bikini, lingerie, fitness, and glamour model and professional wrestler.

Modeling Career

Bobbi Billard is one of the top print and Internet models in the United States, whose rising star has blossomed over the course of her stellar career.

Bobbi is America Online/Netscape/CompuServe Men's No. 1 Internet model, a title she has held for several years. She is also the Unofficial MySpace queen (www.myspace.com/bobbibillard), with almost 1 million friends, putting her No. 4 in the world for total friends and popularity.

Bobbi has been featured in several productions throughout her impressive career, including a feature spot in the Diet Dr. Pepper "Green Baywatch" commercial, which aired during Super Bowl XXXV. She has appeared in Muscular Development magazine cover and features, Muscle Mag, American Curves, as well as on the popular Benchwarmer trading cards. Bobbi made a music video appearance in Blues Traveler, "Girl Inside My Head" as well as in Kottonmouth Kings, "King Klick". Bobbi recently had a part in her first feature film: Fox Searchlight Pictures Phat Girlz starring Mo'Nique.

Bobbi has had an amazing run as a celebrity nightclub host across the country. Bobbi has hosted seven events at Las Vegas nightclubs and hot spots in six months, including parties at Body English nightclub inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Jet nightclub inside The Mirage, TAO nightclub inside The Venetian, Seamless nightclub's New Year's Eve bash and the Wet Grooves music festival at the Hard Rock.

One special note: Bobbi was one of just three female celebrities to host New Year's Eve events, with the other two being Britney Spears (Pure nightclub) and Pamela Anderson (TAO nightclub).

Bobbi has also hosted events in Columbus, Ohio, where she opened Karma Nightclub in December. More recently, and most importantly, Bobbi was the headlining model for two Super Bowl parties at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Bobbi was the featured model of five models to host the "Poppin' Bottles with Models" event with Academy Award-winner Jamie Foxx. Bobbi was also the featured star of the six models who co-hosted Diddy's Annual Super Bowl White Party featuring P Diddy, R. Kelly, Missy Elliott, American Idol winner Fantasia Barrino and several NFL stars in Florida for the weekend of Super Bowl festitivies. Bobbi also handled the radio advertising spots as well for the Jamie Foxx event, which aired on every major radio station in Florida during Super Bowl week.

Wrestling Career

Bobbi entered the world of professional wrestling in the now defunt California-based WOW promotion. Using the name "Summer," Billard was given the gimmick of a Baywatch-like lifeguard along with a tag team partner named Sandy. The duo had several tag team matches together and were unsuccessful in the WOW Tag Team Title Tournament. At WOW Unleashed, the team fought to a draw with Farrah and Paradise.

Billard signed with the WWE in late 2003, and entered into their developmental territory, Ohio Valley Wrestling. She received training from Ivory and Jacqueline. In the summer of 2004, however, herself and fellow model turned wrestler LaTasha Marzolla, were released after getting injured. Billard suffered a serious neck injury while working for WWE which abruptly ended her career. In July of 2004, Billard underwent a two level fusion neck surgery (paid for by WWE) with the same doctor (Dr. Youngblood) that operated on Stone Cold Steve Austin and Lita. She has since made a full recovery but has retired from the wrestling business completely.

Billard's last job was for a TV show ("Nu Wrestling") in Italy in which she worked a tour as a valet.
