First off, she is former Ms. Universe. Secondly, the majority of her acting portfolio is Italian. How ever did she land the role?

I was wondering that myself, because she bears no resemblance whatsoever to Xayide's depictation on the box art. Maybe because she was Miss Universe-level beautiful, yet unknown to American audiences? Maybe because the director wanted an actress who would over-the-top emote, as Burt obviously threw herself into.
