Rose was born in Tuscany, Florence, Italy on September 5, 1973 to parents She is the second oldest of six children. Rose's mother was French, and father was Irish but she spent most of her life to herself. Rose's parents were in a cult called "The Children of God" (a cult which had other famous members besides Rose, such as Joaquin and River Phoenix.) The group emphasized the cutting of family ties, discipline and commitment to cult beliefs, which included total devotion to cult activities on the part of children of members. The group's activities triggered a 18-month investigation by New York's Attorney General's Office in the 1970s, which led to a 1974 report alleging that cult members were engaged in kidnapping, imprisonment, virtual enslavement, prostitution, polygamy, rape and sexual abuse of children and incest. Rose and her family remain in the cult until 1982.

Roses family finally left the cult and moved to the Oregon, USA when she was age 9. She was once accused (by parents) of being a druggie when she wasn't. Just because she dressed a certain way, she was labeled that way and eventually was sent to rehab by her parents. Rose eventually runs away from home when was about 16 years old.
Rose's parents later got a divorce, and her father toured around Europe as a photographer for magazines. Rose lived with her mother and her many other siblings. Rose was kind of a loner in school wearing all black, and spent a lot of time in the library. She was always invited to the clique parties, but they "weren't her scene". Her look proved to be a disadvantage to her when a man her father was dating saw her appearence, and was sure that she was on some sort of drugs. She was sent off to a drug rehab center, even though at this point in her life, she had never experimented with drugs. Rose couldn't stand being in this place, so basically, she just ran away. At this point, Rose was pretty much on her own. She went around, and didn't have any long standing jobs. One of her jobs was in a movie theater where they played movies that had been released before, and were almost on video. Her job was to stand by the door, and lure guys in to see her, and in turn, the movie. This job didn't last long, as she was fired for breaking cookies. Only the broken cookies could be eaten by employees, so Rose would throw them against the wall, and break them. Later, Rose went to work in gay night clubs as a dancer. She isn't gay and did so for two reasons. The first is that after the club closed, it gave her a place to stay, and the second reason is that there wouldn't be any guys hitting on her (just girls! What a trade off!) Once she was even gay bashed. She had her hair pulled back, and she said that she must have looked like a guy. Eventually, Rose got her first acting roles. It was not on purpose though. She was standing outside a gym, refusing to go in because of how corny it was, when Greg Araki spotted her. It was then that he casted her in The Doom Generation. Rose was also cast off the street for her role in Bio Dome. Since then Rose has gone on to star in Scream, Going All the Way, Nowhere, Phantoms, Ready to Rumble and many othre features.

Rose wants to be a museum curater, but is pretty busy with acting right now.
She currently stars on TV's "Charmed" with Alyssa Milano and Holly Marie Combs. Rose replaced Shannen Dorhety when she left the show.

Rose was engaged to shock rocker Marilyn Manson 1998-2001. She believed that marriage was a time for them "to get even crazier with each other." I guess Marilyn didn't so they split in January 2001. Rose told Howard Stern that she broke up with Marilyn Manson because she tired of the rock and roll lifestyle he engaged in. When pressed further, she admitted that drug use was a big part of that lifestyle in October 2001. Ex-boyfriend: Amhet Zappa
Currently dating: David Zinczenko, Editor of 'Men's Health' magazine.

Currently she resides in Los Angeles, California with her two dogs. She is 5'5" and weighs 105 lbs.


Quotes:

"I'm a pussycat unless you do something to one of my friends. Then I'll think of unique ways to get back at you. I'm more creative than your average bear." (Uhhh Yikes)

"It's my job to spread deviance to the American youth."

"Discussing "where the relationship is going" makes me want to stick my head in the oven."
