===SmackDown===
She made her first "official" WWE appearance at the [[SummerSlam (2006)|2006 SummerSlam]] [[pay-per-view]] in a backstage segment with several other divas. During the segment, the other women initially taunted and teased her before revealing that "it was all in fun" and part of an "initiation" of sorts. Afterward they dragged her into the showers, fully clothed, where they proceeded to spank her while laughing.<ref name=pwi>{{cite journal|author=PWI Staff|journal=[[Pro Wrestling Illustrated]] presents: 2007 Wrestling almanac & book of facts|title=Wrestling’s historical cards|publisher=[[Kappa Publishing Group]]|date=2007|page=121–122}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://manage.fhmonline.com/girls_girls_of_fhm_article.asp?cnl_id=1&stn_id=1&idx_id=5150&gofp_slot=4|title=Girls of FHM - Extreme Exposé's Layla|publisher=FHMOnline.com|accessdate=2007-08-31}}</ref>

The week after SummerSlam, El made her debut as a member of the SmackDown! [[WWE Brand Extension|brand]] in an [[Promo (professional wrestling)|interview]] with [[Mike Mizanin|Mike "The Miz" Mizanin]]—although he did not allow her the chance to say much, spending most of the time talking about himself.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/archive/08252006/ |title=Friday knightmare|accessdate=2006-08-25|first=Craig |last=Tello |publisher=WWE.com}}</ref><sup>[http://www.wwe.com/content/media/video/tvshows/smackdown/200608/3221482/082506mizlayla view]</sup> Subsequently, she was not seen on WWE TV for weeks, reappearing during the September 22 ''SmackDown!'' and getting into confrontations with both [[Kristal Marshall|Kristal]] and [[Jillian Hall]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/smackdown/060922.html |title=SmackDown! results - September 22, 2006 |accessdate=2007-04-15 |publisher=Online World of Wrestling}}</ref> She again went missing for a number of weeks after this, resurfacing at October's [[WWE No Mercy#2006|No Mercy]] event and embarrassing the Miz by tricking him into getting a [[lap dance]] from Big Dick Johnson while he was blindfolded and expecting it to be from her as a birthday gift.<ref name=pwi/>

Layla made her official in-ring debut, a "Diva Trick-or-Treat [[Battle royal (professional wrestling)|Battle Royal]]" on October 24.

Layla El (born June 25, 1978) is a British dancer, model and professional wrestler of North African heritage,[1] currently residing in the United States. She is employed by World Wrestling Entertainment as a WWE Diva and appears on the Raw brand.[2]

Before joining WWE in 2006, Layla El was a dancer for Carnival Cruise Lines,[3] the Miami Heat franchise of the NBA,[1] and also danced for Kanye West at the MTV Video Music Awards.[4]

World Wrestling Entertainment

Layla El first entered the world of professional wrestling after her trainer suggested she try out for the $250,000 WWE Diva Search contest in 2006.[5] During the contest, she won a week's worth of "immunity" on the July 14 (taped July 10) edition of SmackDown! after winning Sgt. Slaughter's "Diva Boot Camp" obstacle course[6]—despite having jumped over several tires in the tire hop section of the course and not having both of her feet cross the finish line due to her doing a split.[7] She won another competition, the "Diva Search Talent Show" on the August 11 SmackDown!, when she danced dressed as a police officer.[8] She won the Diva Search, beating out JT Tinney and Jen England in the finals on August 16. Layla is the first diva with African heritage to win the WWE Diva Search.[5]

SmackDown

She made her first "official" WWE appearance at the 2006 SummerSlam pay-per-view in a backstage segment with several other divas. During the segment, the other women initially taunted and teased her before revealing that "it was all in fun" and part of an "initiation" of sorts. Afterward they dragged her into the showers, fully clothed, where they proceeded to spank her while laughing.[9][10]

The week after SummerSlam, El made her debut as a member of the SmackDown! brand in an interview with Mike "The Miz" Mizanin—although he did not allow her the chance to say much, spending most of the time talking about himself.[11]view Subsequently, she was not seen on WWE TV for weeks, reappearing during the September 22 SmackDown! and getting into confrontations with both Kristal and Jillian Hall.[12] She again went missing for a number of weeks after this, resurfacing at October's No Mercy event and embarrassing the Miz by tricking him into getting a lap dance from Big Dick Johnson while he was blindfolded and expecting it to be from her as a birthday gift.[9]

Layla made her official in-ring debut, a "Diva Trick-or-Treat Battle Royal" on October 24. The match ended in controversial fashion when she was pulled from the ring apron by The Miz, causing her to lose.[13] This led to Miz and Kristal briefly teaming in a feud against Layla and the Boogeyman.

ECW

On January 23, Layla was moved to the ECW brand.[14] On ECW she joined up with Brooke and Kelly Kelly as Extreme Exposé, performing a weekly dance segment with the group. Extreme Expose danced weekly on the ECW show for months,[15] until the Miz was also placed on the brand, at which point all three ladies began actively pursuing him.[16] When Kelly shifted her attentions towards the much more slovenly looking Balls Mahoney,[17] Layla, Brooke, and Miz openly mocked her. On November 1, Brooke was released from WWE,[18] and Extreme Exposé dissolved as a group, leaving Kelly and Layla to enter an ongoing rivalry with more active in-ring roles.

Raw

As part of the 2008 WWE Supplemental Draft, Layla was drafted to the Raw brand and she became the first WWE Diva to be an official superstar on all three brands.[19] On the July 7 edition of "Raw", Layla made her debut along with Jillian Hall being defeated by Mickie James and Kelly Kelly, who was revealed as the newest member of the Raw brand earlier that night. An angle between her and Jamie Noble soon began, where she started to become a fan favorite, with Noble attempting to impress her with his matches, only to be defeated or thoroughly squashed by his opponents. Noble then finally defeated William Regal, which impressed Layla. On the September 15 edition of "Raw", Layla became a heel by siding with Regal after Noble continuously tried to impress her, despite picking up a victory over Paul Burchill. She came out to the entryway, feigning that she would apologize, before calling Noble a loser and choosing to stay with Regal.

Other media

Since winning the Diva Search contest El has also done some modeling work. She has been featured in the magazines King,[20] JET,[21] Smooth,[22] and was the cover-girl for the first ever issue of Liquid.[23][24] She also posed for FHM with the other members of Extreme Exposé.[25]

In April 2007, Layla, along with Kelly Kelly, Brooke, Torrie Wilson, Ashley and Maryse, were filmed for Timbaland's music video "Throw It On Me" featuring The Hives.[26]

During the week of November 5, 2007, Layla appeared on an episode of Family Feud with other WWE superstars. On February 6, 2008 she appeared on Project Runway with several WWE Divas as part of the week's challenge.[27] She also appeared on the April 13, 2008 episode of Celebrity Fit Club Boot Camp as a trainer. She will be making her first appearance in a video game in SmackDown! vs. Raw 2009
