Gisele Bundchen Biography


Gisele Caroline Bundchen was born on July 20, 1980, in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. We can only imagine the chaos that was the Bundchen household, considering Gisele grew up with five sisters -- Raquel, Graziela, Gabriela, Patricia, and Rafaela. 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 that's how it all got started

Gisele Bundchen graced the cover of Vogue in 1999, with a tagline that read "The Return of the Sexy Model." The cover not only made Gisele a household name, many fashion industry vets have credited the cover as putting an end to the heroin chic era. Gisele has since been in campaigns for major fashion houses, such as Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Valentino, Celine, Gianfranco Ferre, and Chloe. Aside from Vogue she has been on the cover of pretty much every significant magazine, including Vogue Italia, Marie Claire, GQ, Harper's Bazaar, Arena, Allure, and Rolling Stone.

While her best friend may be her dog Vida ("life" in Portuguese), Gisele Bundchen has been romantically linked to male model Scott Barnhill, billionaire Joao-Paulo Diniz and actor Josh Hartnett. She and Leonardo DiCaprio had one of the most famous on-again, off-again romances in Hollywood, with the two finally calling it quits after five years in November 2005. What? No more paparazzi photos of the most beautiful couple in Hollywood? Gisele had better plans in store.

There's no denying Gisele Bundchen's unbelievable hotness, 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 and also 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.

Gigi Lai Biography


She is not even 30 and she has almost as many awards as her age represents.
Gigi Lai, or Lai Chi as she is known in other parts of the world, is a multi-award winning actress from Hong Kong who has been identified as one of the brightest talents in her field since the earliest years in her career which began at the age of 14. Her list of awards, the latest being one she received in 2007, honor her for everything from being the most popular female artist to being the best dressed.
Her 2004 Most Popular Actress Award for her role as a concubine in the series War and Beauty made her extremely popular with Hong Kong and Mainland China fans as well as some overseas countries.
She was not always an actress though.
In the early years of her career, she started out as a singer and released six albums, four in Cantonese and two in Mandarin, during the 1990s. Her favorite singers that influenced her records were Madonna and the band Bananarama.
The sister to a younger brother and devoted daughter has always been well known to her fans for her stunning image. Reports are now, however, that she is more concerned with finding challenging acting roles than simply looking beautiful on screen.
Lai is said to be currently under contract with the TVB television channel in her native country. Her most recent films released were Jewel's Splendor and The Ultimate Crime Fighter.
