Biography 
Adriana Sklenarikova was born in Slovakia in 1971. She was born in a financially strapped country, and coming to a new world of fashion was a big change for her. As she says: %22I’ve changed my life from black to white. There was nothing like fashion in Slovakia. I would like to keep working in this amazing world after the ending of my modeling career. I appreciate the proposal of the Italian movie director Carlo Vanzina for making a movie, but I think that was too involving for me, I’m too busy now. I also think that a model should not diversify too much her objectives.%22
With her incredible beauty and 6′0%22 frame, she was instantly snatched up by Next modeling agency in New York, and Elite Modeling in Milan. Though her big break came after being chosen as the new Wonder Bra girl (a highly visible contract that will add incredible exposure for her, in more ways than one), Adriana has been in plenty of advertisement campaigns.

The companies she has represented include Argentovivo, Byron Lars, Laura Biagiotti, Levante Hosiery, List, Love Sex Money, Onyx Jeans, Peroni Beer, Red Point, and Roberto Cavalli. It was her campaign for Peroni Beer that really launched her career, and helped pave the road for her current success, by highlighting her as the ultimate beer woman.

Adriana has just signed a two-year contract with Wonder Bra, and is now part of the exclusive Victoria’s Secret modeling team, a move that has spelled considerable success for other major super models such as Tyra Banks, and Daniela Pestova.

Adriana is now happily living in Madrid, with her soccer player husband Christian Karembeu. The marriage was a major event in Spain in December of 1998, since Adriana is one of the best known models in Europe, and her husband is the star of one of the country’s leading soccer teams.

Biography 
 
Dad was sailing constantly. So mostly, it was mum, brother and me’ Even as a child, I was a dreamer. I conjured up my own dreams and created a world of my own. At the same time, I was this sensible kid. In the family, I always spent more time with my aunts and uncles than with my cousins. It was not like a kid trying to be grown up. It was a comfortable atmosphere. My parents had always encouraged open communication. Between the four of us - mom, dad, my brother and I - we were a very closely-knit family unit. Grown-up things were discussed; I don’t mean the birds and bees; but family matters, relationships, friends?My dad was on ship, sailing constantly. So, most of the time, it was mum, brother and me. I always behaved more grown up than my brother. Even today, people are surprised that he is older than me. It’s very funny. Even in school, my juniors, my classmates and some of my seniors would so naturally discuss their problems with me. I was a very talkative child. I used to speak better than other kids my age. I was always ahead of my time. I got into these little conversations with people and I was convinced that I was putting my point across, even if they were perceived as arguments. ‘I loved to watch Chayageet’ As a child, I was exposed to a lot of music at home. Various kinds of music. My brother, who is 3 years older to me, obviously put on what he liked. There were no CDs at that time. He’d buy some tapes, he’d record some?pop music, mainly. And my mother used to listen to old Hindi songs. Later on, I also learnt Hindustani Classical and Carnatic music. I loved music and dance. I trained in Bharatanatyam too. I was inclined towards the fine arts right from the beginning. We watched films as kids, but not excessively. It wasn’t part of our normal routine. There was television and the Sunday movies, which were the big events of the weekend. After that, you started feeling guilty about your homework for Mondays. I loved to watch Chayageet on Doordarshan and all the Hindi movies. I was enthralled by the magic of cinema even then. Videos were new and it was a big thing to watch the latest movies on them, whenever we could. Films weren’t a taboo. They just weren’t allowed to be the centrepoint of our lives, just like we weren’t allowed to go crazy over chocolates or going to games parks.

‘If the occasion demands that I be a chandelier, I will be so’ Adolescence is a strange phase. One goes through all kinds of transformations. This was that stage when I’d constantly get into fights with my brother, not because he was my elder brother, but because I now felt on par with him. When I was getting into college, I thought, ‘Uh-oh, Elder-Brother Syndrome is going to take over big time!’ But after a while, amazingly, we became the best of friends. I was never into fashion really. I don’t know if I still am. I was always easy about dressing. If the occasion demands that I be a chandelier, I will be so, impassionately. But the kind of clothes I wear personally is a very different matter. Comfort is the main criterion, and of course, moods. But my clothes are never extravagant. In college, I was very simple in my dressing - just jeans and a shirt or a salwar kameez or something. Biology and Zoology were my favourite subjects, but I didn’t see myself making a career in medicine. One needs a kind of dedication for such careers which, at that time, I thought I wouldn’t be able to put in. I took up architecture and then developed a love for it as I was studying it. ‘The Miss World contest gave me a chance to discover myself’ At the time of the Miss India contest, I was 19, just past my Class XII. I was as new as the other 20-odd contestants, but I was already known as Aishwarya Rai, the model. People therefore thought I was Miss Know All because of my experience. I spoke on the stage for the first time during the contest. I was feeling very conscious and people mistook this for attitude and restraint in expression. The Miss World contest also gave me a chance to discover myself. I was there in Sun City for one month with people I didn’t know and who didn’t know me at all. I was trying to see which qualities of mine would create an impression on these people. I think I found and recognised myself there. I’ve had my fair share of attention right from childhood. That’s why I have never felt the need to grab it. In fact, I almost work at underplay. If you see my body language, I always have one raised shoulder. It means that I’m taking things in, listening to what others have to say, instead of screaming for attention. ‘I love being in films’ I am enjoying every moment of being in films. It’s addictive. I was offered films in my modelling days, but I didn’t give acting a shot then because it meant compromising on my studies. The only time I almost gave in to the temptation was in December 1993, when Toy (Dharmesh Darshan) spoke to me about Raja Hindustani. But then, I entered the Miss India contest. Even Rajiv Rai had called me during Mohra. When I look back, I wonder how those films would have been if I had done them. My life would probably not have been the same.

I don’t need to pile my plate’ Very few people seem to recognise the fact that I am still a newcomer to the film industry. The media has slammed me for the failure of my films and accused me of having manipulated my career to be able to work with the right people. At the same time, when I turned down Indra Kumar’s Mann, Sooraj Barjatya’s Hum Saath-Saath Hain, Sunny Deol’ s London and Priyadarshan’s film, people said I was crazy. I am not guilty of any manipulation. I knew that I couldn’t do justice to many films at the same time, though they could have done wonders for my career. Some actresses do 10-12 films a year, but I stick to four. I want to complete my pending projects before I take on new ones. I know that here, people want to be secure for the next five years. So they take on everything they are offered. I’m not insecure. I know the films I have on hand are enough, they’ll get made. After that, I will sign new films. I’d love to work with a lot of directors. But at the moment, the table’s well laid. I don’t need to pile my plate. The assurance that there are more items on the menu is good enough. I love films. I love being here. There are no regrets, no complaints. Once in a while, I let my hair down. I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t feel the need for time out. When I feel the need for a break, it shows. People give it to me before I can ask. The pace has been frenetic these last five years, but this roller-coaster ride has been a conscious choice. I’ve had a taste of everything?college life, campus rounds, the catwalk, the Miss World blitz, and now films. It’s been perfect. ‘B(e) positive is not just a blood group’ I’m still in touch with my friends and family. I make time for them. Time has become even more precious, but I use it well. How can I not keep in touch with friends? They’re the ones who constantly remind me that I’m me. Aishwarya. I always say, ‘B(e) positive is not just a blood group.’ Cinema is not just make-believe, it is a real world too. If your attitude is right, it does not matter who you are — the director, producer, the main lead or the set in-charge. Everyone speaks the same language. Bambaiyya. It is a wonderful world and the emphasis is on wonder. You get to live so many characters. All the people you may never meet in real life, you meet in your films. Once, while shooting abroad, we were dancing in the middle of the street. My co-star was feeling ridiculous. ‘Why are we doing this?’ he cribbed constantly. I told him, ‘Look at it this way. You can use this as an excuse to do anything really stupid and get away with it. All that you can’t do in real life, you can express through films. Here you can fool around and enjoy it.’

Name : Alessandra Ambrosio

Profession : Model
Date of Birth : April 11, 1981
Place of Birth : Erexim, Brazil
Height : 5′ 9%22
Biography 
Alessandra Ambrosio was born in Erexim, Brazil, on the 11th of April, 1981. Her modeling career started when she decided to take modeling lessons in Brazil. The course led to her participation in Elite’s Look of the Year contest in 1996, which eventually led to her contract with Elite Model Management. When Guess? got hold of Alessandra’s shots, the clothing line signed her to the advertising campaign. The company that launched the careers of Estelle Hallyday and Laetitia Casta can add Alessandra to their long list of modeling debutantes. Alessandra is more than a Guess? girl. She has graced the covers of magazines such as Capricho, Desfile, Elle (Brazil), Wallpaper, and Harper’s Bazaar (Spanish).
As for fashion shows, Alessandra has walked the catwalks for designers such as Laura Biagiotti, Christian Lacroix, Byblos, Fendi, Issey Miyake, Kenzo, Christian Dior, Nicole Miller, and Oscar de la Renta, among others. Guess? wasn’t the only company to see Alessandra’s beauty. She also has contracts with Revlon cosmetics, Gap, and is set to appear in advertisements for Calvin Klein eyewear and Giorgio Armani. Those who caught the Victoria’s Secret fashion show in Cannes on the Internet may have noticed Alessandra in the show, among a cast of the lingerie line’s staples, Tyra Banks and Stephanie Seymour.

While the Brazilian beauty was once an Elite girl, she has switched agencies and is now represented by Marilyn Gaultier. Although her modeling career is on the rise, Alessandra plans to pursue a University degree. When she’s not modeling, she spends her time with her model/club promoter boyfriend of two and a half years, Jayson Lee (although she has been romantically linked to fellow model Marcelo Boldrini). She enjoys sandboarding and lounging on the beach listening to Brazilian music. Her favorite place in the world still remains her tiny hometown, and having traveled the world has not convinced her otherwise. When not at her New York apartment or busy building a house in her native Brazil, Alessandra is leaving her mark around the world with International magazine covers, ad campaigns and big league designer fashion shows.

Amber Valletta

Name : Amber Valletta

Profession : Model, Actress
Date of Birth : February 9, 1974
Place of Birth : Tucson, Arizona
Sign : Aquarius
Biography 
Born on February 9th 1974, Amber Valletta, despite her exotic name, is American, having been born in Tucson, Arizona. Her parents soon moved from Tucson to Tulsa, Oklahoma, where Amber was raised.
Growing up, Amber wanted initially to become a sociologist and work in the social scope. But her life took a different, albeit blessed, turn and she ended up in a very different career. Knowing that her little girl’s beauty stood out among the rest, her mother enrolled her in a modeling school at 15 years old.

A local agency soon sent the now 5′9′ brunette to Milan where her first shoot was posing for Italian Vogue. Soon after that, Amber got her first big break; the cover shoot for French Elle magazine by Hans Feurer. Not too long after that, Amber, like most models began residing in Paris.

Amber immediately became a modeling sensation, having picked up where fellow supermodels Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer had left off. Photographers and magazines alike couldn’t get Amber’s face pasted on billboards and magazine covers fast enough.

Big names such as Steven Meisel, Richard Avedon, Bruce Weber, Patrick Demarchelier, Herb Ritts, Nick Knight, Paolo Roversi, Irvin Penn, Mario Sorrenti and Peter Lindbergh were all scurrying to Amber for her photogenic face and svelte body.

Amber has since appeared in numerous prestigious advertising campaigns such as Versace, Calvin Klein’s Escape, DKNY, Prada, Valentino, Jil Sander, Gucci and Chanel. She co-hosted MTV’s House of Style with best friend and fellow model Shalom Harlow and she even became the face of Elizabeth Arden.

Although she didn’t end up becoming the sociologist she wanted to be, Amber does use her position as a celebrity to support various charity events. In 1995, she organized a charity called Supermodels Stepping Out Against Hunger, a fashion show that took place in her hometown to benefit the Tulsa Community Food Bank.

On the personal front, Amber dated Leonardo DiCaprio, as did the majority of models in the free world. Unfortunately, their relationship didn’t last (he’s currently dating Gisele Bundchen). Amber was also married to Herv?Le Bihan, whom she met on a Calvin Klein photo shoot in 1994. Two years later, the couple divorced.

Amber finally ended up meeting renowned Olympic volleyball player Christian McCaw on a chance encounter and is currently pregnant with their child. So the beautiful vegetarian is saying good-bye to her flat-as-a-board tummy, for a little while anyway.

Over the summer, Amber appeared in What Lies Beneath, which starred Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer, and also co-starred in an independent film entitled Drop Back Ten.

Although she’s currently on hiatus anticipating the birth of her soon-to-be bouncing baby, Amber will be on magazine covers and hopefully in more films before mid-2001.
