Gisele Bundchen "Richest Model In The World"

When supermodel Gisele Bundchen appeared on the June 1999 cover of Vogue magazine, the then 18 year-old new face turned the fashion world on its perfectly symmetrical head. She is often credited with single-handedly ending the heroin chic era of the '90s, and for that we are eternally grateful because we love a woman with some curves. Gisele Bundchen has been on the cover of hundreds of magazines, appeared on countless billboards and is the face of more than 20 brands. She is one of the world's wealthiest and most famous models. Tom Brady is a very, very lucky man.

Gisele Bundchen's face boasts sharp curves, which make her very unique and just as attractive as fellow models Kate Moss and Adriana Lima. Gisele combines her exotic looks from Brazil with a perfectly sculpted body, making her a heavenly creature. And she's got the brains too... you'd have to be pretty intelligent to make your way to "richest model" status. Beauty and brains... what's sexier than that?

Gisele Bundchen is a Brazilian model who burst onto the fashion scene in 1999. Discovered when she was 14 in a shopping mall, she has been the prime choice of photographers, magazine editors and fashion designers alike for years, as her face appeared on ad campaigns for all the leading fashion houses. Gisele Bundchen has won the prestigious Model of the Year Award, following in the footsteps of Linda Evangelista and Esther Canadas. She started her own footwear line in 2006, and Forbes puts her 53rd on their list of the most powerful celebrities of 2007 due to the company’s success. She also owns a hotel in the south of Brazil.

Biography

Gisele Caroline Bundchen was born on July 20, 1980, in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Gisele is not the only beauty in her family; in fact, her five other sisters -- Raquel, Graziela, Gabriela, Patricia, and Rafaela -- are also aspiring models. The road to becoming the world's most sought-after model came by chance for Gisele, after she was spotted by an Elite agent while eating a Big Mac at a Sao Paulo McDonald's with her friends at the age of 14. Despite her father's disagreement with her career choice, Gisele moved to the city. In 1995, she entered the Elite Look Modeling Competition, and her career took off.

Gisele Bundchen has since been in campaigns for major fashion houses, such as Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Valentino, Celine, Gianfranco Ferre, and Chloe.

As for magazine covers, she has graced the covers of Vogue USA, Vogue Italia, Marie Claire, Harper's Bazaar, Arena,, Allure, and Rolling Stone.

Surprisingly, Gisele Bundchen is a big fan of sweet popcorn, candy and McDonald's sundaes, a vice that does not show on her more than statuesque figure. It is for this figure that Vogue credited Gisele's work in the fashion industry as "The Return of the Sexy Model," as her physique marks the end of the waif-look that Kate Moss made so famous.

Nonetheless, Gisele Bundchen's chest size has been questioned, but she denies having had implants. Real or not, Gisele adamantly refuses to ever fully reveal her breasts, whether for a fashion show or for a pictorial. One thing is for sure: The only thing fake about her body is her belly-button piercing and the tattoo she has on the inside of her left wrist.

While her best friend may be her dog Vida (life in Portuguese), she has been romantically linked to male model Scott Barnhill, billionaire Joao-Paulo Diniz and actors Josh Hartnett and Leonardo DiCaprio.

There's no denying Gisele Bundchen's incredible beauty, which is why companies are willing to pay her top-dollar for representing their name. In 2006, she signed a multimillion dollar contract with Apple Computer as well as made a guest appearance in The Devil Wears Prada. In July 2007, Forbes magazine named her the top-earning model in the world. The following month, she became the face of Pantene hair products for Proctor & Gamble.

gisele bundchen is no. 16 in 2008 top 99

Gisele Bundchen ranked No. 14 on AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2007 list, so it's not surprise she also ranked highly on the Top 99 of 2008. She appeared on the cover of Vogue in March 2008 with LeBron James, and that same year, Forbes ranked her as the highest-paid model in the world, as she raked in an incredible $35 million in '08.

In January 2009, reports came out that she and long-time boyfriend Tom Brady, the New England Pats' quarterback, got engaged. In early spring, the couple married.

Heidi Montag "The Hills"

Although a new nose and a boob job has the slim, blond, 5’ 3” reality TV star looking especially good, and although there is no denying her beauty, a couple issues cut into her sex appeal ever-so-slightly.

One is the controlling, wanna-be Hollywood power-broker boyfriend, and the other is that she is just plain… well, let’s just say she doesn’t come off as especially bright, on The Hills or, especially, in interviews. Ultimately, she seems to do her best work when she can’t be heard, namely in print as a model (when she has the ability to look like a real model -- not a fashion model like Adriana Lima, but definitely a glamour model).



Her friendship with Laguna Beach star Lauren Conrad landed Heidi Montag on that show’s spin off, The Hills, and she’s been busy trying to make the most of her newfound celebrity. She teamed up with fiance Spencer Pratt to become one of Hollywood’s hottest, most despised and most lucrative couples, parlaying her increasing fame into a movie and music career.

Profile
Heidi Montag was born on September 15, 1986, to restaurant owners in Crested Butte, Colorado, the second of three children. Out of high school, she says she studied fashion in Italy for a year before moving to San Francisco to attend the Academy of Art. It was a fateful decision, since it was there where she met Lauren Conrad. Neither would finish at the Academy; rather, they both moved south to L.A. to attend the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising and moved into an apartment together.

In 2005, Heidi Montag dropped out of the Institute, claiming it wasn’t sufficiently challenging, to take an internship with Bolthouse Productions. The internship ultimately led to a position as an event planner with the company.

Her association with Lauren Conrad landed Heidi Montag on a few episodes of Laguna Beach, but it was the developing friendship between the two that landed her a featured role on that show’s spin off, The Hills, which premiered at the end of May 2006.

From there, her profile mushroomed, thanks in large part to her developing relationship with The Hills costar Spencer Pratt and deterioration of her friendship with Lauren Conrad. The public explanation for her feud with Lauren Conrad is too banal to be believed, and it has kept them both on the front pages of gossip magazines and websites for well over a year. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have also become the young Hollywood power couple people love to hate.

Using her fame from The Hills, Heidi Montag launched a would-be music career, releasing four tracks since February 2007. Although she claimed to be under contract with Warner Bros. to record a full album, she had chosen, along with Spencer Pratt’s production help, to self-release the tracks through both MySpace and iTunes instead.
Her first official single, “Higher,” was released in February 2008, and she followed it up a month later with her second single, “No More.”

Nicole Scherzinger "The Pussy Cat Dolls"

In both her interviews and live performances, Nicole Scherzinger exudes self-confidence and a true sense of strength, all while emanating an irresistible aura of femininity. She has gone on record saying that her favorite dance move is the "booty shake," which she effortlessly pulls off at any given opportunity. Like Gwen Stefani and Britney Spears before her, Nicole Scherzinger is clearly not afraid to use her sexuality to accentuate her performances, which is why she landed at No. 70 on our 2007 Top 99 Most Desirable Women list and at No. 48 on the 2008 edition.

Biography

Nicole Elikolani Prescovia Scherzinger was born on June 29, 1978, in Honolulu, Hawaii. She is of Hawaiian, Filipina and Russian descent, and comes from a large family of entertainers -- her mother, Rosemary, was a professional hula dancer and her grandmother was a respected Mariachi singer.

When Nicole Scherzinger was just 6 years old, her military father was transferred to Louisville, Kentucky, where she began attending performing arts schools, pursuing an education that would persist throughout her adolescence. As a teenager, she was the first runner-up at the 1996 Kentucky State Fair's Coca-Cola Talent Classic contest, and she appeared in several plays at Louisville's Actors Theater.

Eden's Crush stayed together for about a year, and Nicole Scherzinger began to focus on her solo career and tried her hand at acting (appearing in the 2003 movies Love Don't Cost a Thing and Chasing Papi). In 2003, a friend told Nicole about a casting call for a new group called the Pussycat Dolls, and even though she missed the auditions, she was allowed to drop by and perform for the executives in charge. They were so impressed with Nicole Scherzinger's stage presence and vocals that they opened discussions with her immediately about joining the group as lead singer, and soon reached an agreement.

After a series of performances on shows such as The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel Live, Nicole and the Pussycat Dolls began work on their debut album. PCD was released in September 2005 to critical and financial acclaim. A number of singles hit Billboard's top 5, and the album has since sold more than six million copies worldwide. It was around this time that Nicole began working on her first solo album.

nicole scherzinger releases "baby love"

A number of big-name producers collaborated with Nicole Scherzinger on her solo album, most notably Timbaland and will.i.am. The official album name was announced as Her Name is Nicole, and the first single was "Whatever U Like." Shortly after this single's release, however, "Baby Love" replaced "Whatever U Like" as the official lead single.

Her Name Is Nicole's 2007 release was, at the time, pushed back to 2008. In January of 2008, she was named to the No. 48 spot on AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women list. In 2008, she was a part of two hit singles -- a cover of the track "Rio" by Duran Duran, and Timbaland's "Scream," which she worked on along with Keri Hilson. Then, at the beginning of 2009, Nicole Scherzinger landed on AM's Top 99 once again, ranking at No. 65 on the 2009 Top 99 Most Desirable Women.

Josie Maran "Sexy Lady in Backstreet Boys Everybody Video"

Even though she is only 20 years old, she has already gone from the "it" girl -- a fashion moniker describing a very in demand model -- to a "pass" girl, which basically means her career is already on the down turn. Then they [fashion industry] wonder why we think they've lost their minds.

Her appearance in a Backstreet Boys video introduced her face to a whole new demographic, but even with a high-profile Guess? ad campaign, she remains unknown outside of the modeling circle.
Without sounding like dirty old men, we must say that innocence is sexy. She hits that mark easily.

This chestnut haired exquisite beauty is best known for her work in the Summer '98 and Fall '98 Guess? advertising campaigns. Josie Maran was born and raised just outside San Francisco in Menlo Park, and graduated from an all-girls private school. Although she now resides in Manhattan, California will always be considered home. Following the path of many other models, Maran did not initially aspire to be a model.



She was hanging out with her friends at a BBQ in her hometown three years ago when a woman asked her to be in a fashion show. This request was the beginning of her modeling career, since a modeling agent at the show spotted Maran and encouraged her to start modeling.

Presently managed by the Elite Model Management, Maran has graced such magazine covers as Fitness, Glamour and Teen, as well as Shape, Seventeen, Stuff, and Sport. Apart from her work in the Guess? advertising campaign, she also appeared in ads for Maybelline and American Eagle Outfitters. People may recognize her as the main female character in the Backstreet Boys video, "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)".

Although Maran has already had an impressive modeling career at the tender age of 20, she is still down to earth. Not only does she "look at life as an adventure", but she also enjoys learning about different people, cultures and countries. When not working, Maran makes time for her favorite pastimes: reading, hiking, traveling, and spending time with her family and friends.

With such a large number of young girls being approached by modeling scouts, she advises young aspiring models to finish high school, since there is always time for modeling after graduation. She also suggests to keep an open mind, not to take life so seriously and be deceived -- modeling is not as glamorous as it seems! It may not be glamorous, but with Maran's natural beauty, she makes modeling seem like second nature, despite the fact that she is only 5'7" tall(below the standard for female models).

Maran hopes to continue modeling for a few more years and eventually try her hand at acting.

Ursula Mayes "Deal or no Deal"

Birth name: Ursula Mayes
Birthdate: August 9, 1979
Birthplace Seoul, South Korea
Height: 5'6
Ethnicity: Korean, Native-American and German

Biography

Ursula Yvonne Mayes was born on August 9, 1979, at a military base in Seoul, South Korea. As an army brat, she traveled frequently early on, and made stops in places like Puerto Rico and North Carolina along the way, before settling in the Washington, DC area. This is where she would spend the remainder of her childhood.

With five brothers in the house, Ursula had a lot of masculine influences, which may explain her constant troublemaking. She also picked up interests like boxing and rock music, and managed to get mixed up in less-than-stellar hobbies like hot-wiring cars. The extent of Ursula's teenage troubles is unknown, but as she grew older, she developed a healthier pastime that would send her life in an exciting new direction.



Ursula Mayes in Maxim

Despite her teen issues, Ursula held a keen interest in photography that led her to her aunt's photo studio for work. The plan was to stay behind the camera and help with hair and makeup, but her aunt encouraged Ursula to try modeling, and a new talent was born.

When Ursula's pictures started to win awards for her aunt, a Virginia modeling agency signed her. At the time, she shifted between jobs as a waitress, an office manager and a makeup artist. In 2004, these jobs vanished when Ursula finished third in Maxim's Hometown Hotties search. Because of this, she was invited to Hawaii, where she won the Miss Hot Import Nights title against thousands of other competitors. Ursula's true modeling career had begun.

Ursula Mayes joins action media and dreamgirl

Ursula embarked on a national Miss Hot Import Nights tour to celebrate her crown and Action Media, the contest sponsor, followed suit by appointing Ursula as their new spokesmodel. She also became a familiar TV presence (something she still does today) for Action Media-sponsored shows like Hot Import Nights, Nightshift, VIP, and Auto Fashion.

Ursula relocated to Orange County and promptly signed on with two modeling agencies. This led to a multitude of print gigs for clients like Muscle & Fitness, OC Health, Chicago Clubline, and Bacardi. Ursula also signed on with Dreamgirl and became their 2006 spokesmodel, serving as their go-to girl for clothing and lingerie catalogs. Even with all of this attention, there was still something else waiting in the wings.

Ursula Mayes on deal or no deal

After participating in the Super Bowl Lingerie Bowl, Ursula was offered a new assignment as the substitute Suitcase Model No. 9 on Deal or No Deal. After appearing in only one episode in February of 2006, she was promoted as a replacement for No. 5, and by the following season, Ursula was the brand new No. 5 model and a familiar face on the game show circuit.

Since starting her stint on Deal or No Deal, Ursula has found new ways to add to her fame. She's launched a website, a calendar and a DVD to reach out to fans around the world who recognize her picture from her various creative endeavors. She's entered the video game industry by appearing in Juice 2 Hot Import Nights, and she's taken on acting duties in the feature film Redline (2007). We're not sure what the next surprise in store for Ursula will be, but we're certainly looking forward to it.

Mini Biography
