Yolanthe Cabau (born Yolanthe Cabau van Kasbergen) was born on March 19, 1985, on the island of Ibiza, Spain. Her father is Spanish and her mother is Dutch. Her father, Xavier Cabau, known as the “Spanish Queen,” left the family when Yolanthe was only five years old, but she reconnected with him as she grew older. After his death, she went through a difficult period. She has a brother and a sister, as well as step-siblings from her father's second marriage. She moved to the Netherlands with her family at a young age. Yolanthe began her acting and hosting career in the Netherlands and gained attention for her role in the 2004 film “Snowfever.” She appeared in various TV series and programs in the Netherlands. She is particularly known for her role in the series “Onderweg naar Morgen” and her hosting role in the program “De Lama's.” She was named “The Sexiest Dutch Woman” by the Dutch FHM magazine in 2006, 2007, and 2009. Cabau began gaining international recognition and appeared in a small role in the 2013 Michael Bay film “Pain & Gain.” She also had the opportunity to appear in various Turkish productions, such as the 2015 film “Polis Akademisi Alaturka.” In her personal life, she gained the most attention for her relationship with the world-famous Dutch footballer Wesley Sneijder. The couple married in Italy in 2010. This marriage garnered significant attention in Turkey, especially after Sneijder transferred to Galatasaray in 2013. Yolanthe frequently visited Turkey during Sneijder's time at Galatasaray and became a prominent figure in the Turkish tabloid press. The couple welcomed a son named Xess Xava in 2015. However, Yolanthe Cabau and Wesley Sneijder announced their separation in 2019. In addition to acting and hosting, Yolanthe Cabau is also an entrepreneur.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
