Krista Allen (born April 5, 1972 in Ventura, California) is an actress who is perhaps most well-known for headlining the Emmanuelle in Space series of soft core films.

Allen also appeared in the television shows Days of Our Lives (as Billie Reed, 1996-1999) and Baywatch (Jenna Avid, 2000-2001). Allen has also appeared in films like Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Anger Management, and the Project Greenlight horror film Feast.

Allen is also well known for playing a sexy virtual reality character in an episode of The X-Files and is remembered for her brief appearance as the "Elevator Girl" in the Jim Carrey comedy Liar Liar.

She is sometimes credited as Krista Allen-Moritt as a result of her marriage to Justin Moritt which lasted from 1996 to 1999; they have 1 son: Jacob Nolan. She has also been romantically linked to actor George Clooney.

Krista lived in Austin, Texas, where she went to school at Austin Community College and majored in education. She then interned as a kindergarten teacher before she decided to pursue her dream of an acting career. She was also crowned Miss Texas in 1991 and has started her own T-shirt line called Sex Brand.

She has recently been one of the stars of HBO's Unscripted playing herself as someone who struggles to overcome her sex symbol status to win more serious roles.
