She has also showcased her comedic side by recurring as Charlie Sheen's love interest in Anger Management, and is eagerly anticipating the release of her most recent film, Battle Scars, which sheds light on the often dark reality service men and women face adjusting to home life after returning from war.
In addition to her acting career, Kristen has also made a name for herself in the reality TV world. She has appeared on Kendra On Top, a reality show on WE TV that follows the fast-paced and often hilarious life of her real-life girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson. She has also been featured in the docu-series "Celebrity Ghost Stories" and its follow-up series "The Haunting Of...." where she recounted a terrifying evening on the ship The Queen Mary in which she witnessed one of the many documented "ghosts" on the ship.
