Dina Caliente (née Bachelor; born 2nd December 1978) is an American singer, songwriter, actress, dancer and model. She rose to fame in 2004 when her sim-self appeared in the sequel to the first Sims game, The Sims 2
Early Life
Dina was born in Barnacle Bay and grew up with her sister, Nina and her Mother and Father. As a small child she appeared in a local TV advert advertising the new tourist attractions in Barnacle Bay.
Dina was interested in music from an early stage, she was the lead character in the musical Annie. She also won an award when the Official Dance Assosiation arrived at Barnacle Bay searching for young talent; Dina was sumbitted into the competition by her parents and was eventually crowned the winner.
In High School, Dina showed an interest in drama and often talked about becoming famous somehow. She was described by her drama teacher as the "perfect young actress", due to her flexibility with roles she played.
Relationship with Jeff Smith
After leaving school, Dina became involved with one of her close friends Jeff Smith; the pair were together for two years. When Dina was 18, she discovered she was pregnant with a baby boy; during the 9 months of pregnancy, Dina and Jeff split and agreed to share custody of their child. Dina gave birth to Tyler Caliente 9 months later; however, Dina suffered from Postpartum Depression and, to protect her child, she gave Jeff full custody of Tyler until she was better. Dina continued to see Tyler on a regular basis, during this time, Dina and Jeff briefly reconciled, however, it was short lived and the pair split up again. A custody battle took place for Tyler, but to protect her son from the arguments, Dina agreed to give full custody to Jeff.
The Sims 2
Following her split from Jeff, Dina moved to Pleasantview with her sister Nina. Following their arrival in
Pleasantview, Dina's Dad died to Lung cancer. The following year, her mother Nighat suffered a severe heart attack, which left Dina and Nina in charge of their home. Following the death of their parents, Dina and Nina were approached by Will Wright, creator of the first The Sims game. He offered Dina and Nina a role in the sequel to the first Sims game; he explained that the story would reflect their real lives and that their in-game home would be modelled off their current home. The story went quiet shortly after and speculation began as to whether the characters would appear or not. When the game was officially released, Dina and Nina was shipped with the game and were involved in one of the biggest Sim storylines ever.
The success of the game kicked into effect shortly after it's release and Dina and Nina became incredibly popular with fans; despite this, some other fan reaction was very negative. Dina began to receive death threats and after speaking with Will Wright, pulled out on future production of the games. It was agreed that the Caliente sisters would not be used to promote any further Expansion Packs following the release of the Base Game.
Second Child & Music Career
Dina started dating Malcolm Landgraab, who like herself, was used in the 2nd Sims game. During this time, Dina believed that
