Tanja Reichert (born September 19, 1980) is a retired Canadian actress.

She started acting when she was 15 years of age, and she first appeared on TV at 17 years old, when she had the role of "Shelley-Girl #2" in Breaker High for two episodes ("That Lip-Synching Feeling" and "Rooming Violations"); and she has appeared in many more films/programmes since then.

But she is probably most well known for her role in Relic Hunter, when she was Sydney Fox's assistant, Karen Petrusky, for the third and final season.[1]

Reichert has starred in movies like Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde, as Reese Witherspoon's Delta-Nu sister; in Broken Lizard's Club Dread as Chef Kelly; Head over Heels (from Universal) as the undercover FBI partner of Freddie Prinze, Jr.; and Scary Movie (from Miramax/Disney), with the Wayans brothers.

Reichert's other notable television series credits include guest starring roles on Poltergeist: The Legacy, Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction, The Immortal (starring Lorenzo Lamas), and Francis Ford Coppola's sci-fi series First Wave. Most recently, she had roles on the popular CBS’s series CSI: Miami, as well as The Chris Isaak Show.

In late 2006 / early 2007 she appeared in MyNetworkTV telenovela Wicked Wicked Games, playing the secretary Jennifer Harrison.
