It’s hard to believe 15 years has passed since Ali Landry made her big debut during the Super Bowl 32 in a Doritos commercial.

The spot, which was filmed in a laundromat with another unknown star at the time Sean Hayes, went on to become one of the most popular commercials of all time and immediately made the former Miss USA a household name.

“It freaks me out . . . I feel like it was yesterday but here I am, two kids later,” Landry, now 39, recently told Celebuzz in our Hollywood, Calif. studio.

“Doing this commercial I had no idea it was going to air during the Super Bowl, and two, it was my first kind of introduction even into this business really. I had just given up Miss USA. I got the commercial . . . I just thought it was a job.”

Landry, who also appeared in Super Bowl spots for the tortilla chip company in 1999 and 2000, is now part of a new campaign for Doritos called “Crash the Super Bowl.”

Choosing from a bevy of commercials made by hard core Doritos fans, voters can now choose their favorite until Jan. 29, just days before Super Bowl 47 takes place in New Orleans.

“There’s two spots that’s going to air. One that the Doritos company picks and another one the fans will vote on,” Landry said.

And according to the mother of two, it’s opportunities like these that can change someone’s life over night.

“I still didn’t realize [at the time] it was a big deal for a commercial to air during the Super Bowl. And the next day . . . I had record labels calling me to see if I wanted a record deal. I can’t sing.”

Ali Landry is ready for the holidays!

On Saturday, the 39-year-old actress played host to a holiday party celebrating the upcoming film Santa Paws 2: The Santa Pups.

Landry brought along her adorable kids, Estela, 5, and Marcelo, who just turned one in October, for the event, held at The Victorian in Santa Monica, Calif.

Her husband of six years, Alejandro Monteverde was also on hand for the celebrations.

“Cannot wait for the kids to see Santa Paws 2,” Landry wrote on Twitter, along with an Instagram snap of her family.

The former Miss USA attended the event in style, sporting a cream colored blouse and a bright yellow pencil skirt.

Santa Paws 2: The Santa Pups will be released Nov. 20.

Ali Landry is very proud of one thing these days: her Rachel Zoe pants.

On Friday night, Celebuzz caught up with the 39-year-old at the grand opening of Kyle by Alene Too in Beverly Hills, Calif.

“I bought [the pants] months ago because they were like the goal pants to get in. So tonight’s a good night,” she said.

So how did she do it?

“Gosh, working my you-know-what off. I ran a triathlon. I’ve been working out really, really hard. My baby just turned a year old, so it was a big, big milestone for me to be back to my pre-pregnancy weight after I finished nursing and after the nine months.”

What else did the glowing mama have to say?

One would think that during Landry’s journey to her pre-pregnancy figure, the actress would receive an overwhelming amount of support from her husband of six years, Alejandro Gomez Monteverde.

Turns out, Monteverde, who’s not very athletic himself, didn’t think his doting wife would make it, and even took part in a friendly bet.

“If anything, I encourage him to work out and stay healthy, but he sort of didn’t think I was going to be back in pre-baby shape. So I had a bet with him, but it was also with myself,” Landry told us.

What were the details of the bet?

“That I was going to look better after the baby than before,” Landry said, adding that the only thing at stake was bragging rights.

It’s pretty clear who the winner of this bet was, judging by Landry’s slim and healthy appearance on Friday.

Ali Landry is currently expecting her second child, and just like any expectant mommy, she knows how important it is to make sure your skin stays soft and stretch mark free!

That’s why she decided to team up with Palmer’s lotion to get the word out about their new and improved lotion!

Celebuzz chatted with the mom about how her pregnancy is going and much more!

Tell me a little bit about your involvement with Palmer’s.
It’s the launch of Palmer’s new formula for stretch mark lines. I just shot everything and it was incredible. We’re doing the commercial and print campaign. I bared my belly for Palmer’s. It was really liberating and I was really proud to do that.

You have a daughter and now you’re expecting. Do you know if it’s a boy or a girl yet?
Yes, I do. Right now we’re not really saying anything, though. We’re keeping it secret for family and friends. It’ll be a surprise.

Is your daughter excited?
She is. She’s really excited. She knows there’s a baby coming and that she’s going to be my little helper. We’ll wait and see because she’s used to having all the attention and now she’s going to have to share it.

Have you thought of names?
Yes. We have a name picked out.

How would you compare the pregnancies? What’s different this time?
I have more energy during this pregnancy. My body is carrying this pregnancy a little bit differently. I’ve been craving more and have been a little more nauseous this time around. I really do enjoy being pregnant.

How far along are you now?
I have about four weeks left to go.

What was shooting like?
We shot in Los Angeles so the heat definitely played a factor. My body was running about 10 or 15 degrees hotter than everyone else, so I was really warm. I had a little fan trailing behind me and following me. Hopefully in the weeks to come it’ll cool off a little bit.

If you could schedule one playdate for your daughter with another celebrity, who would you choose?
I have a lot of celeb mom friends that like to get together and hang out with the kids. I’d really enjoy getting together with a mom that I really admire like Maria Shriver. I would love to sit down with her for a second and talk to her. I don’t know who I’d pick, though.

You’re daughter is four, but do you already have a hint as to a role she’d play growing up?
Something we really try to do is expose her to a lot of things and see what they’re really into.

UPDATE: THIS CONTEST HAS NOW ENDED. THANK YOU!

It seems that babies are the hottest accessory in Hollywood these days, and celebs only want the best for their bundles of joy!

Hollywood geared up for Father’s Day this weekend by attending a pre-Dad’s Day mini golf event sponsored by Britax and Baby Buggy.

Ali Landry spent her Friday properly in a way that we can all envy: On the beach, living the dream in a bikini.

The brunette beauty (y’know, the Doritos stunner turned actress) showed off her still-remarkably-amazing body during a sandy stroll in Mexico on Friday. Sporting a navy-and-white two-piece, Larter looked just nautical enough as she splished and splashed in the crystal clear ocean.

These days, celebrities seem to do little more than shop, nibble on their salads at the newest restaurants, and go wild at the new Hollywood hot spots. 

Occasionally they film a movie or two, and, of course, have a baby.

But, surprisingly, a few select celebs have decided to push their bodies, and minds, to the limit by participating in a marathon of their choice—26 miles, 285 yards to be exact. Most recently, Jennifer Lopez has announced she is planning to shed the rest of her baby weight while she trains for an upcoming marathon in the fall.
