Adrian Lima’s most significant new client of 1999 was Victoria’s Secret, who brought her on board that year for their annual fashion show and their summer catalog a year later. The company was so taken with the Brazilian beauty that they named her as one of the Victoria’s Secret Angels -- immediately giving her career a boost in modeling credibility and a big payday to go with it. In their efforts to keep pace with the industry’s hot new faces, other companies and designers like Guess?, Vera Wang and Ralph Lauren quickly scooped her up. Automobile giant BMW took a different approach by including the model in Wong Kar-Wai’s The Follow, which costarred Forest Whitaker and Mickey Rourke, and was part of a short film series headlined by Clive Owen.
In 2002 and 2003, Adriana Lima added to her runway repertoire by participating in shows for Christian Dior, Versace and the late Alexander McQueen. A cosmetics deal with Maybelline followed, as did a cover shoot for the March 2003 edition of Elle, but first and foremost Adriana Lima was still an Angel. As a testament to this, she experienced one of her career highlights in a 2004 Victoria’s Secret Super Bowl commercial with Bob Dylan, a project that had her donning wings, heels and -- of course -- lingerie. The ad would be seen by more than 100 million viewers worldwide. Just a year later, Adriana would put her unique stamp on Italy as the face of Telecom Italia Mobile in a campaign that led her to be nicknamed “The Catherine Zeta-Jones of Italy.” Read More...>>>

Adriana Lima’s modeling education started in elementary schools when she would often enter local pageants and come away as the winner. The self-esteem boost that came from winning helped ease the insecurities that resulted from her father’s decision to leave the family when she was only 6 years old. Adriana’s association with beauty pageants continued in high school when she and a friend agreed to enter the same modeling competition. After one of the organizers saw modeling potential in Adriana, she was encouraged to enter the “Supermodel of Brazil” contest that was presented by Ford Models. Adriana did just that, and at 15 years of age, she won the title and moved on to that year’s “Supermodel of the World” competition.

A second place finish in the 1996 “Supermodel of the World” competition assured Adriana Lima that a modeling career was in the cards. She took full advantage of the opportunity by signing a deal with Elite Model Management and heading straight into print, ad and runway work. Adriana’s first runway appearance was for Anna Sui in 1997 within a year, she would already have an ad contract with Anna Molinari and a cover shoot for Marie Claire (Brazil) in the books. In 1999, the young model would continue to develop her runway credentials by wearing the collections of Emanuel Ungaro and Balmain. Read More...>>>

Date of Birth: June 12, 1981
Birth Place: Salvador, Bahia, Brazil

Adriana Lima is one of Brazil’s finest exports. Men know her best as one of the elite Victoria’s Secret Angels, an association that has allowed her to participate in many company events such as ritzy runway shows and popular Super Bowl ads for the past decade. The reach of Adriana Lima’s fame has extended beyond the many pop culture branches of the Victoria’s Secret umbrella, allowing her to experiment with other top-line modeling campaigns, runway appearances and acting projects.

Adriana Lima’s substantial industry power and strong physical appeal have earned her an amount of fame that puts her among the very best in her profession. If today’s Queen Bee model Gisele Bundchen were to glance over her shoulder, she would likely see Adriana Lima looking back from her consistent place as one of today’s five top-earning models. In addition to her financial status, Lima’s high beauty pedigree has earned her nods from the respective “Sexiest Women” and “Most Beautiful People” lists of People and FHM. Read More...>>>

Megan Fox's first major Hollywood film -- the Michael Bay-directed robot romp Transformers -- grossed over $700 million worldwide. Not bad for a first effort, right? However since then, Fox has tried desperately to distance herself from the franchise that she deems frivolous; so much so that after starring in the smash sequel, Fox was dropped from the third film in favor of fellow stunner Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. How her post-Transformers career will play out remains to be seen, but after the box office dud that was Jennifer's Body, coupled with the bad buzz surrounding her upcoming summer actioner Jonah Hex, don't be surprised if one day you see Fox running once again from a psychotic toaster in the straight-to-DVD classic Transformers 8: The Return of The Killer Kitchen Appliances.

From the moment a sultry, slinky brunette named Megan Fox bent over the hood of a '76 Camaro in Michael Bay's Transformers, we knew our lives would never be the same again. It was a moment that marked the arrival of a brand new Hot symbol -- the ultimate Hot symbol. Read More...>>>

Date of Birth: May 16, 1986
Birth Place : Rockwood, Tennessee

Darlene Tonachio gave birth to Megan Fox in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. After her parents divorced, Fox grew up in a strict household maintained by her mother and stepfather. Fox claims that throughout her high school career, she was constantly targeted by bullies because she got along better with boys, and other girls resented her for it. Hmm , we wonder why the boys liked having her around? But in between eating lunch alone in bathroom stalls and showing boys her bra strap, Fox was taking acting classes while harboring aspirations of stardom. By 17, Fox had moved to Los Angeles, and was landing guest roles in various low-profile projects.

Megan Fox and Michael Bay's relationship seemed doomed from the beginning. When the bombastic director cast the relatively unknown actress opposite Shia Labeouf in his blockbuster tent-pole Transformers, he essentially handed her a golden ticket to movie stardom. Fox had been stuck in the sludge of middling sitcom purgatory before Bay had her don a barely-there pair of denim shorts and a midriff-baring top, yielding one of the most iconic sexually charged scenes in cinema history.

Aside from single-handedly making women's tennis popular again, Anna Kournikova is one of the most searched people on the internet thanks to her amazing looks. She proves that you don't need to be a star tennis player to be one of the most highly endorsed athletes, nor do you need killer tennis skills to have a deadly internet virus named after you.

Anna Kournikova also proved her earning power by being one of the richest women in sports, thanks to lucrative contracts with companies like Adidas, Yonex, Berlei (the famous sports bra), Omega (also the choice of Cindy Crawford and Pierce Brosnan), and Lycos (who once named Anna Kournikova the most popular athlete on the internet, moving Michael Jordan to the No. 2 spot).

By 2002, she was reportedly making $10 million a year, and she continues to be the most photographed woman in sports -- even though her ranking and stats are nothing to write Russia about.

stretching her modeling muscle, Anna Kournikova graced the cover of Sports Illustrated's June 2000 edition, and was featured in Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue in 2004 and 2005.

Date of Birth: June 7, 1981
Birth Location: Moscow, Russia

Anna Kournikova (née Anya Kournikova) was born on June 7, 1981, in Moscow, Russia, to Sergei and Alla. Her father, a lecturer at the sports university in Moscow and a part-time tennis coach, and mother, did not encourage Anna to play tennis for the fame, but rather for the health benefits of the sport.

Anna Kournikova's talent was first discovered when she played at a weekly children's sports program at the age of 5, thanks to the racket she received from her parents for Christmas. She started to play and practice more often, in places such as Moscow's Soklniki Park and the prestigious Spartak Tennis Club, despite the fact that her family was far from wealthy.

While still in Moscow, Anna Kournikova's first tennis coach was Larissa Preobraschenskaja, from 1985 to 1989. The budding tennis player trained and practiced while studying at school. In 1992, 11-year-old Anna Kournikova moved to Florida with her mother to attend Nick Bollettieri's Tennis Academy in Bradenton. The tennis facilities made it easier for Anna Kournikova, who had to commute from the gym to the tennis court to school while in Moscow. Read More....>>
