Trishelle Cannatella playing poker

Trishelle Cannatella, the "Real World: Las Vegas" lush we have the utmost respect for because she showed a generation of young women everywhere that it was cool to get sloppy drunk and have lots of carefree sex with people you barely know, was one of the poker playing Celebs at the WPT Invitational.

As you can tell from the photo, the prairie dog lovin' Playboy Bunny was dressed modestly by her standards, in that she was wearing clothes.

While Trishelle has never done it for us in the looks-above-the-neck department, we have to admit she looked somewhat decent Saturday night, at least from afar. Up close though, her vein popping arms kind of freaked us out, which just goes to show what happens when girls like Trishelle dress modestly, we notice crap like that.

Trishelle Cannatella

Trishelle Cannatella (born November 4, 1979) is an actress, reality TV contestant, and Playboy model.

Cannatella was born on November 4, 1979 and raised in Cut Off, Louisiana. She is of French Cajun ancestry. She was raised as a Southern Baptist, and has described herself as a "momma's girl".

Her mother, a devout Christian, took her family to church three or four times a week. When she was 14, her mother died from a brain tumor. Prior to her passing, Trishelle's mother instructed Trishelle's older sister Nikki to look after Trishelle, which Nikki would do. Cannatella was on athletic teams throughout her high school career at South Lafourche High School, but after her mother had died, Cannatella began rebelling by associating with an unsavory crowd, acting the part of the "bad girl" , and began doing drugs. She began smoking, and began regularly taking Valium, Xanax, quaaludes, and ecstasy, which her friends would mule in from Mexico.

During her senior year of high school, however, she began to associate with a more respectable group of friends who "took her under their wing", and got her to abstain from drugs. After visiting her sister Nikki at The University of Southern Mississippi, Cannatella decided on that college, which she began attending at age 18, majoring in Broadcast Journalism with a minor in English.
