Tea: (after having her daughter) I feel better. I feel hornier. I feel more womanly and more accomplished and prouder.
Téa: I love tennis. I love very aggressive tennis, and I think I'm quite good. Golf, well, of course you can drink beer when you play that, but I take it pretty seriously, and I'm quite good at that. And I'm a good swimmer, and I used to compete in windsurfing. (on the challenge of playing an athelete in "Spanglish")
Téa: David. The best thing about marriage is David. (when asked what is the best thing about marriage to David Duchovny)
Went to Oahu to help search for her cousin, Tim Pantaleoni, in summer 1995. He mysteriously vanished while hiking and to this day has never been found.
Attended Sarah Lawrence College.
Her surname, Leoni, means "lions" in Italian; her full name, Pantaleoni, is quite close to the Italian word for "trousers" (pantaloni).
She auditioned for a "Charlie's Angels" remake role as a dare, and got the part. A writer's strike in Hollywood meant the series was never made, but the pre-publicity was enough to get Tea noticed.
Her first name is pronounced "TAY-uh."
T?a was married to Neil Tardio from 1992-1995.
