Birth Name: Christie Lee Hudson
Height: 5' 9''
Sex: F
Nationality: American
Birth Date: February 2, 1954
Birth Place: Detroit, Michigan, USA
Profession: Actress, Model

................... BIOGRAPHY...................

On February 4, 1954, Christie Lee Hudson was born in the land of the rich and famous, Malibu, California. Her father was a television writer, who worked on shows such as The Virginian and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. She obviously had an artistic nature imprinted in her genes. After having attended a French-American high school, Le Lyc้e Fran็ais de Los Angeles, Christie moved to Paris. At the tender age of 18, she enrolled in art school. After graduation, she worked as an illustrator for three years. And that's where the fairy tale begins. Like a plot her father could have written, an American photographer spotted her on the streets of Paris. Although he convinced her that she had what it takes to be a model, she was hesitant to leave her creative job. Still, she gave in and became part of the famous Ford modeling agency. On catwalks everywhere, she was an instant hit.

In 1976, she signed a contract with the cosmetics line Cover Girl that began their 20-year partnership, a feat as yet unsurpassed in the modeling industry. In 1979, she appeared on the cover of the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated. The editors liked her so much that they asked for a repeat performance the two following years as well another industry first. Christie has appeared on over 500 magazine covers around the world. A bona fide superstar, magazines like Vogue, Newsweek, Rolling Stone, Cosmopolitan and Time, all wrote articles about her. Her presence on the cover of Life magazine made it their best-selling issue of all-time. In addition, she lent her face to such products as Prell shampoo and Chanel perfume.

In 1981, she and her husband of eight years, Jean-Francois Allaux, divorced. But Christie hadn't given up on love. In 1985, she married famous piano man Billy Joel and soon they had a daughter, Alexa Rae. Christie appeared in a number of the singer's music videos and was the inspiration for his major hit "Uptown Girl." She even had her artwork featured on the cover of his River of Dreams album. Unlike other supermodels, she had no aspirations of becoming a movie star. However, she did appear as Chevy Chase's fantasy girl in the blockbuster National Lampoon's Vacation in 1983; she reprised her role in the 1997 sequel, Vegas Vacation. In 1992, she joined CNN, where she hosted Living in the '90s with Christie Brinkley, a short-lived show where she introduced filmed segments, and two years later, she appeared as herself in a top-rated episode of Mad About You.

As the '80s faded away, and her All-American looks ceased to be in great demand, Christie turned her attention elsewhere. In 1997, she hosted the most profitable infomercial in America for Total Gym. The following year, she launched her own perfume, Believe. She also wrote a best-selling fitness book, and is also a gifted photographer. In addition to having had her work published in periodicals like Autosprint and American Photographer, she participated in a number of major boxing events for Don King, as ring photographer. What's more, she has designed a line of women's eyewear and holds patents for toys for toddlers. Since having divorced Billy Joel in 1994, she has been married twice and has conceived two more children. She is currently married to architect Peter Cook, and when she's not busy working, she spends her time supporting causes like nuclear disarmament and the Make-A-Wish Foundation

Kathy Ireland

................... PROFILE...................

Name: Kathy Ireland
Birth Name: Katherine Marie Ireland
Height: 5' 11"
Sex: Female
Nationality: American
Birth Date: March 8, 1963
Birth Place: Santa Barbara, California, USA
Profession: actress, model

................... BIOGRAPHY...................

She is the first supermodel. To some, she is the most enduring supermodel. To many, she is the most stunning supermodel. And to Sports Illustrated, Kathy Ireland is the most photographed supermodel on their annual swimsuit issue. Ireland was an L.A. beach bum who spent her summers hanging out at the shore. Then one summer, an agent from Elite approached her. Within weeks, she was signed with the agency in New York. The day after her high school graduation, she was headed for Rome.

In 1987, Ireland appeared on the cover of Vogue Italia. That same year, she landed the lead in Alien from L.A., a low-budget film about a G-stringed woman who stumbles on the undiscovered continent of Atlantis. The film bombed, but she was called the body of the year. Ireland says nabbing the cover of Sports Illustrated's 25th-anniversary swimsuit issue in 1989 launched her into the forefront of the fashion industry. The U.S. market became virtually saturated with Ireland in the early '90s, when she appeared everywhere sporting everything from couture spreads in Vogue and Mademoiselle to workout duds in Fitness.

Melrose Place fans will remember the leggy actress in her 1992 four-episode stint as Brittany Maddocks, the evil but gorgeous scam artist who was killed after trying to seduce Jake. The following year proved to be one of the her most active both personally and professionally. She posed for her first Kathy Ireland calendar and released her first fitness video, Kathy Ireland's Total Fitness Workout. And after doing her third SI swimsuit issue and getting her mug on Cheerios cereal boxes, Ireland achieved her most memorable feat she gave birth to Erik. Although she continues to sell calendars and memorabilia off-the-walls, Ireland spends the majority of her time with her son. In 1996, she helped Lays launch their low-fat potato crisps and made what many consider to be her comeback, in Howard Stern's Private Parts. As the years pass, she hopes to focus more on acting and always on Erik.

Milla Natasha Jovovich was born on December 17, 1975 in Kiev, Ukraine. She is the only child of Gallina Loginova, an actress, and Bogdanovitch (Bogie) Jovovich, a physician. Much of her first five years was spent travelling back and forth between her father's medical studies in London and their home in Russia.

After those five years, Milla's father decided that his medical practice could not grow any more in the Russian economy. At age 5, Milla moved with her family to Sacramento, California. Unfortunately, during Milla's childhood in the United States, she was antagonized by children who would never let her forget that she was a "commie" in the heat of the Cold War.

At age 11, Milla rose above this relentless torment to begin her acting career. Her first movie, released in 1988, was Two Moon Junction. From that point on, Milla was flying high. Upon her entry in the realm of modeling, the world was amazed by how beautiful and 11-year-old fashion model could be. Milla's acting and modeling careers continued through her adolescence.

At age 18, Milla released her first album, The Divine Comedy. Many critics anticipated a cheesy pop album that they had come to expect from a model/actress turned singer/songwriter. To the surprise and pleasure of music-lovers everywhere, Milla's first album was a beautiful collection of eclectic music that utilized instruments from around the world.

In 1997, Milla starred with Bruce Willis in Luc Besson's The Fifth Element. Her performance as Leeloo forced the world to recognize her as the incredible actress that she is. During the filming, there were stories of a love affair between Milla and Luc.

Milla and Luc were married in December, 1997. Milla's last starring role came in Spike Lee's He Got Game with Denzel Washington. She will star in Luc Besson's upcoming Joan of Arc (slated to be released this November). In June 1999, she began performing on stage again, and there are rumors of an upcoming follow-up album to "The Peopletree Sessions", Milla's second album. Milla turns 24 this December.

Tyra Banks

................... PROFILE...................

Name: Tyra Banks
Nationality: American
Ethnicity:
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Green
Date of Birth: December 4 1973
Place of Birth: Los Angeles, California, USA
Height: 5'10" ; 178cm

................... BIOGRAPHY...................

"A smart model is a good model," Tyra Banks was once quoted as saying, and she seems destined to prove it in every way. Now widely known as one of the world's foremost supermodels, Banks began her modeling career at the age of 17 with the Elite agency after flirting with attending college at Loyola Marymount. The 5'11" beauty was quickly discovered in Los Angeles, her birth city, and offered a healthy contract with cosmetics company Cover Girl -- becoming only the third African-American woman in the world to secure such an opportunity.

Her striking looks and business savvy extended to several offers, including assignments with Ralph Lauren and various magazine covers (over 20 to be exact), including Sports Illustrated and most notably GQ, where Banks became the first black woman ever to grace the cover. In addition to various ads and runway gigs, Banks decided to branch out into feature films, scoring a few high-profile gigs, starring as Omar Epps' love interest in John Singleton's racially charged drama Higher Learning (1995) and snagging a stint opposite Will Smith on TV's The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. These breakout roles led to more film work, including a British sexploitation film called Inferno and a comic turn in 1999's Love Stinks with actors French Stewart and Bill Bellamy. In 2000, Banks landed a high-profile gig in the critically dismissed but lively Jerry Bruckheimer production Coyote Ugly, playing a sexy barmaid in a role that showcased all of her assets in one tidy package.

Continuing her dual career, Banks' devotion to environmental issues has shown the world her ambition to be a role model as well. She is a promoter of a line of greeting cards for Children+Families, an organization dedicated to helping abused children. Created with the aid of children aged eight and nine, the card series is designed to promote literacy for children in troubled homes. ~ Jason Clark, All Movie Guide
