Gisele Bundchen Biography

Gisele Bundchen, one of two beautiful Bundchen twins, was born and raised in Brazil where -- in a twist that would make her future husband smile -- she was substantially more interested in an athletic career than a modeling one. While Gisele Bundchen’s thin, agile frame lent itself well to her preferred sport of volleyball, it also attracted cruel comparisons from her schoolmates to Popeye’s gal pal, Olive Oil, and various local shorebirds. After a stint in a modeling class, Gisele Bundchen would get the last laugh during a 1994 field trip to Sao Paulo where she was approached by modeling reps from Elite. After a second-place finish in the Brazilian installment of the Elite Look of the Year competition in 1995, Gisele Bundchen made the top five in the world version, and left for New York City in 1996.

Gisele Bundchen’s first foray into the bright lights of the professional fashion world came in September of 1996, when she walked the runways of Fashion Week to spotlight the new collections of Alexander McQueen, Giorgio Armani and Dolce & Gabbana. In the same month, she was featured back in Brazil on the cover of the magazine Capricho. Her fashion beginnings would continue to blossom as she added new designers like Givenchy, Chanel and Ralph Lauren to her client roster and shot her first two magazine covers for the May and December 1998 editions of Allure. After two more covers for Harper’s Bazaar and W in early 1999, Gisele Bundchen would hit her stride with three consecutive Vogue cover shoots, capped off by her selection as 1999’s VH1/Vogue Model of the Year.

Alessandra Ambrosio Biography

Alessandra Ambrosio’s path from bright-eyed trend-follower to beautiful trend-setter started at age 8 when she engaged in regular model dress-up sessions with her sister. A young admirer of beauties like Kate Moss and Helena Christensen, Alessandra Ambrosio was also a fan of Karen Mulder and after seeing the model on a magazine cover, she knew exactly what she wanted to be when she grew up. Within a few years, Alessandra Ambrosio was taking classes in modeling, but her teenage insecurities temporarily got the better of her. While her skinny frame lent itself to a model’s body, she felt that her ears were too prominent and went under the knife to “fix” them. Complications resulted two years later, but fortunately, they didn’t derail her pursuit of a modeling career.

At age 15, Alessandra Ambrosio bravely entered the 1996 Look of the Year Competition, which was presented by the Elite Modeling Agency. She didn’t emerge victorious, but just a year later, the agency came back to offer her a professional contract, anyway. Following her first magazine covers for Elle (Brazil), Marie Claire (Brazil) and Harper’s Bazaar, Alessandra Ambrosio hit pay dirt in 1999 as a hired gun on a campaign for Calvin Klein Jeans and a Paris and New York runway model for Christian Lacroix and Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti.

Holly Weber Biography

Though she lived in Costa Rica for three months as a child, Holly Beth Weber spent the majority of her formative years in Southern California. Holly’s affinity for sun and sand was cemented early on, and she continues to remain close to the water.

During her college years (she was pursuing an Orthodontics degree), Holly Weber supported herself by waiting tables at a local restaurant and would blow off steam by hitting the hottest nightspots in nearby Las Vegas. It was at just such a club that Holly Weber was invited to dance professionally, and she soon found herself earning a handsome living as a go-go dancer.
Holly Weber’s newfound success within the world of modeling naturally led to an interest in acting. She has since taken on small roles in a variety of movies and television shows, including parts in Ron Howard’s 2008 production Frost/Nixon.

In 2009, Holly Weber appeared in the star-studded flick The Ugly Truth costarring Gerard Butler, Katherine Heigl and Cheryl Hines, as well as Crank 2: High Voltage, Fast & Furious with Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez, Miss March with Molly Stanton, and The Devil's Tomb with Cuba Gooding Jr. She also came in at No. 66 on AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2009.

Lucy Pinder Biography

Lucy Katherine Pinder was born on December 20, 1983, in Winchester, Hampshire, England.

The beautiful Brit lived a relatively normal life, but when she was 19 years old, she and one of her friends were minding their own business on a beach in their hometown of Bournemouth when she was spotted by a freelance photographer. As Lucy recalls, "I don't know why we agreed, but he took some pictures of us on the beach, and sent them off to The Daily Star and The Sun. The Daily Star wanted some more photos and on the back of that I got a contract."
Lucy Pinder's face and curvy physique have been seen nearly everywhere since that fateful day in August 2003. Since then, she has appeared on the covers of magazines like Loaded, Nuts, ZOO, Ice, and Fast Car, and she has appeared in prominent ads for PlayStation 2, the Yellow Pages and the National Lottery.

Lucy Pinder has also been photographed with a variety of naturally voluptuous glamour models, including Sophie Howard, Maria Swan and Saskia Howard-Clarke.

In the beginning of her career, Lucy Pinder did not pose topless, but all that changed in April 2007 when she bared all for Nuts magazine. She then became a Page Three girl for The Daily Star in July and August, and kept her shirt off in Loaded magazine in August.
