Actor Verne Troyer is best known for his role as Mini Me from the Austin Powers movies. His next role will be on the TV reality show Celebrity Wife Swap. He and two-time Super Bowl champ Hines Ward will swap wife/girlfriend for one week. Ward’s wife Lindsey needed to be coaxed – she had never been on national TV before. Troyer’s girlfriend actress Brittney Powell did not.
Powell is a former Playboy bunny and actress. The Germany-born blond appeared in the 1991 Playboy special Playboy: Girls of Spring Break, and since then has had small roles in Xena: Warrior Princess, Friends, NCIS, and Two and a Half Men. She’s also well known in the Comic-Con world as she starred in the series Safety Geeks (Dr. Randi Minki). For years she’s been modelling for the Safety Geeks’ Pin-Up Calendars.
