She was also forced to live with a pageant chaperone, who made sure she dressed and acted appropriately.
Moakler began modelling at the age of fifteen. She has appeared in various publications, including Cosmopolitan and Brentwood magazines.
In December 2001, Moakler was named Playmate of the Month by Playboy magazine. She has admitted that posing nude was "a little scary at first." Moakler's Playboy fact sheet listed her measurements as: 34" bust (C), 24" waist, 34" hips, 5 feet 8 inches tall and 117 pounds.
Moakler started her television career in 1996 with appearances on Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman and Due South.

The USA Network series featured a team of police officers who patrolled the beaches of Santa Monica, California, California on bicycle. In seasons four and five Moakler played Officer Monica Harper, described as the trouble-maker rookie. Moakler has admitted that, even equipped with a $5,000 Trek bike, she was somewhat accident-prone on the set, saying that when the cast had to "ride really close together for the camera" they would often "crash into each other like idiots and end up in a big ball of arms and legs."
Moakler was a celebrity contestant on Search Party, a game show on the E! network. The show filmed at exotic beach resort locations and required contestants to team up for competitions such as athletic events and scavenger hunts. Moakler appeared on three episodes in 1999 to 2000.
In 2003, Moakler appeared on Punk'd to help Ashton Kutcher and his crew set up her then-boyfriend, Travis Barker. They "punk'd" Barker by having a waiter flirt excessively with Moakler when she was on a date with Barker at a restaurant. The episode originally aired on November 30, 2003.
Moakler and Barker starred in Meet the Barkers, a reality series on MTV that premiered April 6, 2005. The series followed the couple throughout their daily activities. It covered the couple's wedding and their life as a family. The show continued for two seasons through February of 2006.
Moakler, along with husband Barker, appeared in an episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation entitled "Poppin' Tags", which originally aired on April 13, 2006.

Travis Barker, drummer for the band (+44), and formerly of blink-182 and The Transplants, proposed to Moakler in the elevator entrance to the Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland. Barker paid off one of the ride operators so that the couple could have the space to themselves for a few minutes and then got down on one knee and proposed. Moakler said "yes," but she later surprised Barker with her own down-on-one-knee proposal and engagement ring for him.
Moakler and Barker spent Valentine's Day together in Las Vegas, where Barker surprised Moakler with three dozen red roses and bottle of Dom Perignon.
