Christie Brinkley played her first acting role in the 1983 film National Lampoon's Vacation as "The girl in the red Ferrari" opposite Chevy Chase. She reprised that role in the 1997 sequel Vegas Vacation; later spoofed it in a 2008 DirecTV commercial, using footage from Vacation; again in a 2015 Infiniti commercial as the wife in the Infiniti (the blonde in the convertible for this spoof is model Scarlett Burke); and again in the ABC series The Goldbergs in 2019.

To all of the way wacky woke woksters.....
This video is a great reply to the question that they cannot / will not answer “What is a Woman?”
Just show, send them this video.
After viewing this video, the woke girliemen will feel more impotent; the woke “females” will get even more angry.
When Billy Joel married her, it gave hope to the rest of us.
LOL
Funniest and sexiest hot-chick scene ever filmed in the original “Vacation”. Just shows that feminine allure can be fully clothed.
I did not know that was her first film appearance.

Yeah, but Beverly D’Angelo had it going on in that first Vacation movie.
Hey, Billy took one for the team. He sang about her, "I Love You Just the Way You Are". Big sacrifice, Billy.
That was his first wife, who was also his manager.
She looks fantastic for 72.
I stand corrected.
Other than being able to play a piano, I have no idea why she chose Billy Joel over me........I can whistle.
And I think Billy was bankrupt at the time, because his managers had screwed him over.
“You erased that tape, right, Clark?”
“Do you like that girl? Is that what you want?”
“Oh, noooo. How could I like a girl like that? She’s ugly!”
That was nuthin'! Mickey Rooney married Ava Gardener.
But - no surprise - neither lasted 'til death's parting.
