Holly Madison Biography

Birth Name : Holly Cullen 

Date of Birth : 23 December 1979, Astoria, Oregon, USA 

Height : 5' 7" (1.70 m) 

Profession: Reality cast member; model

Born on December 23, 1979, in Astoria, Oregon, Holly Madison moved at a young age to Prince of Wales Island in Alaska. It was there that she developed her love for nature, spending endless hours observing animals and playing in the woods. However, the move wasn't permanent and Holly and her family returned to Oregon during her early teens. Reflecting upon those awkward years, Holly recalls, "I look back on my middle/high school days and see an Alaskan fish out of water who wasn't good at socializing or fitting in."

Fortunately, this "Alaskan fish" survived her formative years, and upon graduation, Holly enrolled at Portland State University, where she chose to study theater and psychology. Holly stayed there for two years before bolting for the sunnier climes of L.A.'s Loyola Marymount University.

Was working as a "Hawaiian Tropic" model when one of Hugh M. Hefner's friends saw her and put her on the Mansion's party list. The Midsummer Night's Dream party was her first Mansion experience. She saw lots of celebrities and centerfolds and was most excited to meet Hef, Seth Green from the "Austin Powers" movies and Heather Kozar, one of her favorite Playmates. Feeling overwhelmed, she and her girlfriends left early (but not after feeding the squirrel monkeys). After about a year of coming to the Mansion parties, She finally got a chance to really talk to the elusive Mr. Hefner. She knew they would have a lot in common and hit it off immediately. He invited her out with him on a Wednesday, and she moved in that Friday.

Holly Hunter Biography

Birth Name : Holly P. Hunter 

Date of Birth : 20 March 1958, Conyers, Georgia, USA 

Height : 5' 2" (1.57 m) 

Occupation : Actress / Producer

Holly Hunter was born in Conyers, Georgia on March 20th, 1958, the daughter of Charles Edwin Hunter, a part-time sporting goods manufacturer's representative and part-time farmer with 250 acres, and Opal Marguerite Catledge, a homemaker. The youngest of seven children, Holly was encouraged by her parents to pursue her acting talent at an early age, and she landed her first gig as Helen Keller in a fifth-grade play. 

In 1976 she went to Pittsburgh to pursue a degree in drama from Carnegie Mellon University. After graduating in 1980, she went to New York City, where she met playwright Beth Henley in a stalled elevator. Hunter went on to get roles in a number of Henley's southern gothic plays, including Crimes of the Heart and The Miss Firecracker Contest. In 1982 the actress went to Los Angeles. She landed her first starring role in the movies in the Coen brothers' Raising Arizona (1987), a part that is said to have been written with her in mind. She gained stardom in 1987 when she played the driven TV news producer Jane Craig in James L. Brooks' Broadcast News (1987). In 1993 she earned an Academy Award and worldwide acclaim with her performance as a mute bride to a New Zealand planter in The Piano (1993).

One word: Crash. In his controversial 1996 film, David Cronenberg cast Holly as a doctor for people who view automobile accidents as an erotic stimulant. If you can separate the situational weirdness -- and no, most people can't -- from the raw sexual energy she lets loose in that film, you know just how hot it can get around the Holly bush.

Hilary Swank Biography

Name: Hilary Swank

Born: 30 July 1974 (Age: 37)

Where: Lincoln, Nebraska, USA

Height: 5' 7"

Occupation: Actress, producer

Awards: Won 2 Oscars, 2 Golden Globes, nominated for 1 BAFTA

Hilary Ann Swank was born on the 30th of July, 1974 in . . . well, therein lies a question. Reports have been severely confused by the audition process for Boys Don't Cry. In order to win the confidence of director Kimberly Peirce, Swank told her that, like the real Teena Brandon, she was 21 and had been born in Lincoln, Nebraska. In fact, she claimed, she'd be born in the same hospital. Later, Peirce would discover that Swank had lied and confronted her, with Swank cheekily (and quite correctly) replying that that's exactly what Brandon would have done. The part was hers, but the lies caused problems for biographers. Swank was certainly not 21, she was 24. As for her birthplace, her management maintained that she was indeed born in Lincoln. Swank herself would often refer to herself as a mid-Western girl, and state that one of her grandfathers was born and raised in Iowa, just two hours drive from Falls City, Nebraska, the small town where Teena Brandon disastrously went to start a new life.

Hilary Swank has twice won the Academy Award as best actress: for playing a boxer in Clint Eastwood's 2004 drama Million Dollar Baby, and for her gender-bending turn in Boys Don't Cry (1999, with Chloë Sevigny). Swank got her start in the early 1990s with small roles in movies and TV shows. Her first big break came with the movie The Next Karate Kid (1994), in a leading role that made good use of her background in swimming and gymnastics. In Boys Don't Cry she gave a stunning performance as a young woman who lived as a young man; Swank's Oscar for best actress led to bigger roles and bigger paychecks. (She reportedly was paid a mere $3,000 -- $75 per day -- for Boys Don't Cry.) Even so, what followed was less than impressive: small roles in The Gift (2000, with Keanu Reeves) and Insomnia (2002, starring Al Pacino), and a part in the big-budget flop The Core (2003). For Million Dollar Baby, Swank trained rigorously, put 20 extra pounds on her lean frame and turned in a performance that earned her a second Oscar.

Hilary Rhoda Biography

Name : Hilary Rhoda

Date of Birth: April 6, 1987

Birth Place: Chevy Chase, Maryland

Occupation : American model

Born and raised in Maryland, Hilary Rhoda harbored dreams of working as a model since she was just a little girl even though she was also known as a bit of a tomboy in her youth. Adept at lacrosse and swimming, Hilary’s adolescence was about as normal as one could imagine. It wasn’t until she hit her teen years that she began to seriously pursue a career as a model. Following her graduation from high school. 

Although she always aspired to be a model, she also had a huge interest in participating in various team sports. Her passions were field hockey, lacrosse and swimming. While still in high school, she entered into a model convention, signed with an agency and modeled part time.

Her very first job was for a clothing company working with none other than world-renowned photographer, Bruce Weber. After completing school, she moved to New York to pursue a full time modeling career.

In January 2007, Rhoda signed an exclusive contract with Estée Lauder as their newest face. In July of that same year, earning at an estimated total of $2 million in the past 12 months, Forbes named her twelfth in their list of The World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels. She is the current face of St. John Knits, ERES Beachwear, and the Neiman Marcus spring/summer 2009 campaigns. 2009 also marks Rhoda's debut in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

Helena Christensen Biography

Name : Helena Christensen 

Date of Birth : 25 December 1968, Copenhagen, Denmark 

Height : 5' 10" (1.78 m) 

Occupation : Model  

Helena Christensen was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, on December 25 1968 to a Danish father and Peruvian mother. She grew up in Denmark, where her childhood interests included music and photography.

Model Helena Christiansen is probably still best known for playing the mysterious lover on the sand in the 1991 Chris Isaak music video "Wicked Game." Christiansen's modeling career took off in the 1990s, when she appeared on catwalks and magazine covers around the world -- a leggy, slender brunette with distant ice-blue eyes. She has made many appearances for Victoria's Secret, both in their catalog and as one of the "angels" in their television ads.

As a child Helena Christensen was more interested in becoming a musician, but as fate would have it began modeling at the age of 9. After leaving school, she moved to Paris, France to model for the french magazine 'Elle', and in 1986 she competed in the Miss Universe contest as Miss Denmark, but unfortunately did not receive a placing. Her big break came in June of 1989 when she was discovered by photographer Friedemann Hauss, who instinctively knew that Helena was a 'natural' in terms of modeling ability. Since then her career has taken off, and she is now one of the top international catwalk queens. Helena has since taken on the movie industry, starring in a British TV movie Inferno (1980) and following it up with a cameo role in Robert Altman's Prêt-à-Porter (1994).

Helena Bonham Carter Biography

Name: Helena Bonham Carter

Born: 26 May 1966 (Age: 45)

Where: London, England

Height: 5' 3"

Awards: Nominated for 1 Oscar, 2 BAFTAs, 4 Golden Globes

Occupation : Actress, voice actress, singer

She may not be royalty but, born in Golders Green, north London, on May 26th, 1966, Helena does come from classy stock. Her great-grandfather was Lord Asquith, liberal Prime Minister between 1908 and 1916. Her grandmother was Violet Bonham Carter, a renowned politician, orator and member of the House Of Lords (an excellent female role model), while her grand-uncle was Anthony Asquith, legendary English director of such classics as Carrington VC and The Importance Of Being Earnest. Yet, despite this exceptionally English bloodline, Helena's corpuscles are a heady mix, her father, Raymond Bonham Carter, a merchant banker by trade, having married Elena, predominantly French and Spanish - with a smattering of Jewish, Russian and Viennese for good measure.

Though typecast as aristocratic heroines in solemn period films in the early part of her career, London-born actress Helena Bonham Carter struggled to prove her range and break free of her corseted mold. She gained notoriety as the leading ingénue in a few Merchant-Ivory productions, including "A Room with a View" (1986) and "Howards End" (1992), and quickly developed into the quintessential Edwardian heroine. Wanting to avoid being pigeonholed, Bonham Carter began appearing in more mainstream work, hooking up with commercially viable, but artistically respected filmmakers like Tim Burton and Woody Allen. Far from a Victorian prude off-screen, Bonham Carter made headlines for her tumultuous personal life after being romantically linked with Kenneth Branagh, Rufus Sewell and Steve Martin. She finally settled down and became involved with Burton, whom she met while working on "Planet of the Apes" (2001), enjoying a relationship that helped ground her both personally and professionally. From there, she appeared in several of Burton's films, including "Big Fish" (2003), "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (2005) and "Sweeny Todd" (2007), while outside the Burton universe she played the mad witch Bellatrix in "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" (2007), a role she reprised in the final two installments of the popular film franchise. Whether performing in period dramas or special effects driven fantasy, Bonham Carter always elevated any project in which she appeared.

Heidi Montag Biography

Full name: Heidi Montag  

Date of Birth : 15 September 1986, Crested Butte, Colorado, USA Nickname : Speidi 

Height : 5' 2" (1.57 m)

Occupation : Reality television personality, recording artist, fashion designer

Heidi Montag was born on September 15, 1986, in Crested Butte, Colorado. She enrolled in the Academy of Art University and met Lauren Conrad. Both of them shifted to Los Angeles and entered the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. But she left the FIDM and got a job with Bolthouse Productions as an event planner.

During freshman orientation, Montag met Lauren Conrad, who at the time was a featured cast member on the MTV reality series Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County. After the two transferred to Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles, Conrad received her own spin-off series The Hills, which premiered on May 31, 2006. Montag eventually left the Fashion Institute in fall of 2005 when she was hired at Bolthouse Productions. According to Montag, she dropped out because she "did not find the school challenging." Within two years, she was promoted to event planner at Bolthouse.  

Thanks to a nose and a boob job, this blond, 5’3” former reality TV star is looking especially Barbie-perfect. If that's your bag, then Heidi Montag is your girl. Unfortunately, Heidi Montag is somebody else's wife. Her wannabe Hollywood power-broker husband, Spencer Pratt, makes us a little sick to our stomach, and her marriage to him definitely cuts into her sex appeal, no matter how plastic it may be. Nevertheless, she seems to do her best work when she can’t be heard, like in her recent cover shoot for Playboy's September 2009 issue.   

Heather Morris Biography

Birth Name : Heather Elizabeth Morris 

Date of Birth : 1 February 1987, Thousand Oaks, California, USA 

Nickname : HeMo 

Height : 5' 8" (1.73 m) 

Occupation: Dancer/Actress

Heather Morris was born in California, but spent most of her younger years in Arizona. At a young age she discovered her talent for dance, and in 2006 she auditioned with her best friend for the hit reality TV show So You Think You Can Dance. Although she didn’t make it into the top 20, the show was a stepping-stone for her career in dance.

Morris’s first significant appearance was in 2006 on So You Think You Can Dance Season 2 where she made the “green mile” but failed to make the final 20 by a vote of 3-2. Not discouraged, Morris decided to move to LA and actively pursue a career in dancing. Her big break came in 2007 via Beyoncé. Morris was one of Beyonce’s backup dancers on The Beyoncé Experience world tour and, following that, worked again with Beyonce on a mini “Single Ladies” promotional tour that included 2008 performances on the American Music Awards, Saturday Night Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Today Show, and MTV’s Total Request Live Finale. She also danced backup for Beyonce and Tina Turner at the 50th Grammy Awards in 2008.

Heather Mills Biography

Birth Name: Heather Anne Mills

Date of Birth : January 12, 1968

Birth Place : Washington, Tyne and Wear, England

Occupation : Businesswoman, media personality, former model 

Heather Mills, born on January 12, 1968, in Washington, Tyne and Wear, England, is no stranger to adversity. Her father, Mark, a former paratrooper, was abusive toward Heather and her family. When Heather's mother managed to escape, 9-year-old Heather Mills was left to care for her younger brother and sister whilst living with their father. 

When Heather Mills was 13, her father was imprisoned for fraud, and she went to live with her mother and her mother's new boyfriend, with whom the young teenager didn't get along. Headstrong Heather Mills soon ran away to live on the street. Later, she was arrested for stealing jewelry from the London store where she worked, and she was put on probation.

Back in London to raise further funds for the project, Heather found her life changed forever when, in August 1993, she was hit by a speeding police motorcycle as she stepped off a curb. The accident cost her the lower half of her left leg. 

Suddenly, as an amputee, she found herself in a similar situation to the war refugees on whose behalf she had so tirelessly campaigned. Despite her own private distress, she continued to work with the disabled, organising a programme to send discarded prosthetic limbs abroad. 

Heather was presenting at a charitable awards ceremony at London's Dorchester in May 1999 when she met the man who would change her life - former Beatle Paul McCartney. Clearly affected by the blonde activist's presentation the musician later got in touch. 

Their shared passion for charity work led to romance - much to Heather's surprise. "I thought he was very cute but it didn't enter my head that he fancied me," she said later. The couple became engaged during a visit to the Lake District and tied the knot in front of 300 guests at a church in the grounds of Ireland's 17th-century Castle Leslie on June 11, 2002. A daughter, Beatrice Milly McCartney, was born the following year on October 28, 2003. 

In July 2006, McCartney filed the divorce papers against Mills claiming unreasonable behaviour. In October 2007, Mills broke her silence and began a round of interviews on UK and American television, back lashing at the hype over her impending divorce. She hit the headlines after an emotionally charged interview on British breakfast programme GMTV, when she accused a “certain corner” of feeding spin to the media to smear her.

Heather Locklear Biography

Birth Name : Heather Deen Locklear 

Date of Birth : 25 September 1961, Westwood, California, USA 

Height : 5' 5" (1.65 m) 

Occupation : Actress

Actress. Born September 25, 1961, in Los Angeles, California. Frequently referred to by the media as "The Queen of Mean," Locklear is popular for portraying some of the most notable television villains of the 1980s and 1990s.

Locklear was born and raised in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks. Her father is the director of the registrar's office at UCLA and her mother worked as an administrative assistant in the offices of the Walt Disney Company in the early 1990s.

Unforgettable for bringing sex and sass to such Aaron Spelling-helmed nighttime melodramas as "Dynasty" (ABC, 1981-89) and "Melrose Place" (Fox, 1992-99), Heather Locklear's prolific acting career adeptly embraced both the sublime and the ridiculous. While her onscreen characters were often outrageously catty über-bitches who mined our deepest, worst personality traits, off screen, the actress displayed an evolved sense of humor and ability not to take herself too seriously, making her equally attractive to both male and female fans. In fact, the classic California girl seemed the polar opposite of her Type-A characters, with her only extravagant habit seemingly having been a penchant for hard-partying rock musicians - two of whom she would go on to marry.

In 2002, Locklear decided to end her run with the sitcom that earned her two Golden Globe nominations. Before making her way back to the big screen, she guest starred in three episodes of the NBC hit comedy "Scrubs" (NBC, 2001-08) as a drug sales rep who raises Dr. Cox's (John C. McGinley) temperature. In one of her more successful film roles, she co-starred in the dramedy "Uptown Girls" (2003) as precocious Dakota Fanning's upwardly mobile but neglectful mother. The following year, she returned to television as a producer and star of the one-hour airport drama "LAX" (NBC, 2004-05), but even Locklear's appeal was not enough to snag viewers and the show was cancelled after only 13 episodes. It was her first real failure as lead in television. Undeterred, she was cast in another big screen mother-daughter comedy, "The Perfect Man" (2005), as the hapless, peripatetic mom of a teen girl (Hilary Duff) who tries to play matchmaker. Not surprisingly, the film suffered at the hands of merciless critics inundated with tween stars like Duff, Lindsay Lohan and Amanda Bynes schlocky teen angst now playing out on the big screen.

Heather Graham Biography

Full name: Heather Joan Graham

Birth date: 1970-01-29

Birth place: Milwaukee, WI

Height: 5' 8

Occupation : Actress, producer, writer, fashion model

She was born Heather Joan Graham on the 29th of January, 1970, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Her father, Jim, worked for the FBI, specialising in anti-terrorism techniques, while her mother, Joan, was a successful children's author. Both were staunch Catholics. There'd be a younger sister, Aimee, who'd also turn to acting, appearing in the likes of From Dusk Till Dawn and Jackie Brown.

At school, young Heather was not one of the popular crew. As said, she was mocked for her lack of breasts (they would come later. And keep coming), ignored by the boys and labelled a geek. More specifically, she was known as a "theatre geek". That acting bug had struck again. Heather's mother later recalled often finding her daughter behind the furniture, play-acting with her dollies. Heather herself remembers seeing Raiders Of The Lost Ark and being intrigued by a love scene between Harrison Ford and Karen Allen. That, she says, was when she "fell in love with the movies and the opposite sex".

Graham was cast in a number of parts as a supporting actress including the part of Nadine in the 1989 film Drugstore Cowboy. In 1991, she appeared in the TV series Twin Peaks as Annie Blackburn, Dale Cooper's second-season love interest. Many became familiar with her for these two roles.[6] She appeared in a brief but important role in the 1997 hit Swingers. Her breakthrough role proved to be that of the porn starlet "Roller Girl" in 1997's Boogie Nights, in which she appeared in scenes with frontal nudity and received several award nominations. Since then, Graham has been known as a Hollywood sex symbol. She has been part of two ensemble casts that have earned Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations for Outstanding Performance by a Cast. 

Her first starring role was in 1999 as Felicity Shagwell in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. She appeared in the music video for Lenny Kravitz's cover of "American Woman". Also in 1999, she appeared in the movie Bowfinger.

Graham has taken roles in mainstream films, including Mary Kelly in the 2001 film From Hell, based on the story of Jack the Ripper, and Judy Robinson in 1998's film Lost In Space, and she has also been cast in a number of independent films. Some of those films, like 2006's Bobby, have brought her critical praise. She also starred in the erotic thriller Killing Me Softly.

Haylie Duff Biography

Birth Name : Haylie Katherine Duff 

Date of Birth : 19 February 1985, Houston, Texas, USA 

Height : 5' 2½" (1.59 m) 

Occupation : Actress, singer, songwriter

Haylie Katherine Duff was born on February 19, 1985, in Houston, Texas, to parents Bob and Susan Duff. Sister Hilary came into the family two and a half years later, in September 1987. The girls took up ballet at a very young age, and toured with the Cechetti Ballet during the mid-'90s. Haylie's outgoing personality led to her interest in acting and music, which she began pursuing around the age of 10. 

Following in her little sister Hilary's sizeable footsteps, actress Haylie Duff began her acting career as an offshoot of her early dance training. Growing up in Texas, Duff began ballet at an early age. By age ten, Duff landed a role in the Houston Metropolitan Dance Company's production of "The Nutcracker". Within a year, Duff had moved on to roles in television. Starting with a small, uncredited part in the 1997 mini-series "True Women", Duff followed up a supporting role in the made-for-TV movie, "Hope", helmed by first-time director Goldie Hawn. Both films were shot in Texas, which allowed Duff to, at least initially, maintain a balance between her home life and early career.

Moving to Los Angeles to pursue acting full-time later that year, Duff promptly landed a role in the direct-to-video sequel "Addams Family Values" directed by Dave Payne. The sub-par film was savaged by the few critics who bothered to see it. Nevertheless, it served as Duff's entry into Hollywood proper. Fortunately, Duff's next two projects were better received by reviewers (albeit, equally ignored by audiences). In the critically lauded "Dreams in the Attic" (2000), Duff played Jessica, the lonely niece of an eccentric costume shop proprietor (portrayed by Shelley Duvall) who discovers a chest full of magical dreams and fantasies hidden away in a dusty old attic. Duff next popped up in the comedy short "The Newman Shower" (2001), a coming-of-age teen escapade set in the late 1980's at a summer camp.

Hayley Hasselhoff Biography

Full name: Hayley Amber Hasselhoff

Birth date: 1992-08-26

Birth place: Los Angeles, California

Height: 5'1"

Occupation : Actress 

Hayley first broke out in ABC Family's short-lived, yet beloved, TV series Huge. Since the show's premiere, Hayley's popularity sky rocketed, placing her in national teen magazine spreads like Seventeen and Teen Vogue, on talk shows such as Good Morning America, The View and Wendy Williams, and securing fashion endorsement deals. These days, Hayley has been the face of UK's curvy girl fashion line Style369.com, and gracing the pages of fashion and entertainment magazines globally.

Hayley Hasselhoff is the daughter David Hasselhoff and Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff. One of the rising teen stars on television, she first realized her dreams of becoming an actress when she visited the set of her father’s hit TV series, Baywatch and soon after, prepared herself by enrolling in various acting classes.

At the age of 14, Hayley Hasselhoff signed with Ford modeling agency as a plus size teen model. Consequently, she became the spokesmodel for the popular teen clothing line Torrid and participated at the 2007, 2008, and 2009 Celebrity Catwalk for Charity in addition to walking in the 2008 Visionaries fashion show.

After establishing a rewarding career in modeling, Hayley decided to focus her attention on her true passion, acting. In between auditions, Hayley, a trained singer since the age of 10, started developing a band called Bella Vida with her sister Taylor. Last summer, Bella Vida toured Europe hitting DOME 55 among music stars such as Jason Derulo. Now, they have their first single set to hit British airwaves. Look for the album in late 2011.

Hayden Panettiere Biography

Birth Name : Hayden Leslie Panettiere 

Date of Birth : 21 August 1989, Palisades, New York, USA 

Height : 5' 2" (1.57 m) 

Occupation : Actress, singer, model

Actress. Born August 21, 1989, in Palisades, New York. Hayden Panettiere's father, Skip Panettiere, was a lieutenant in the local fire department, and her mother, Lesley Panettiere, was a soap opera actress. Before her first birthday, Panettiere had already begun modeling and acting. She started her career by modeling baby clothes at 8 months old, and appeared in her first TV commercial, for Playskool toy trains, just three months later. Panettiere went on to appear in dozens of commercials as an infant and toddler, including spots for McDonalds, Hershey's and Nix Lice Shampoo.

Perky, petite and equally at home in earnest drama and mainstream comedy, Hayden Panettiere began her career as a child model and soap opera actress. As a preteen, she worked steadily as a voice-over actor in family films like "A Bug's Life" (1998) and "Dinosaur" (2000) before a recurring role as the long-lost daughter of "Ally McBeal" (Fox, 1997-2002) raised the actress' profile. Her energy and spunky can-do persona made her well cast for competitive teen features like "Ice Princess" (2005) and "Bring it On: All or Nothing" (2006), both of which helped lead to her major career breakthrough as a high school cheerleader endowed with superpowers in the primetime phenomenon, "Her s" (NBC, 2006-10). The show brought Panettiere to the attention of worshipful fanboys who had never met a cheerleader they did not like, giving the still young actress the tricky challenge of balancing both the sexy and the innocent as she moved into adulthood. With her first mainstream starring film role in the high school romantic comedy "I Love You Beth Cooper" (2009), Panettiere proved that mining her All-American girl persona was her ticket to big screen success

Halle Berry Biography

Birth Name : Halle Maria Berry 

Date of Birth : 14 August 1966, Cleveland, Ohio, USA 

Height : 5' 6" (1.68 m) 

Occupation : Actress

Halle Berry was born on August 14, 1966 in Cleveland, Ohio, USA to African American father Jerome Berry, a former hospital attendant, and Caucasian mother Judith Berry, a retired psychiatric nurse. Halle also has an older sister named Heidi Berry. Halle first came into the spotlight at 17 years old when she won the Miss Teen All-American Pageant, representing the state of Ohio in 1985 and, a year later in 1986, when she was the first runner-up in the Miss USA Pageant. 

As a former beauty queen and fashion model, Halle Berry surprised many naysayers when she emerged as a multi-talented actress capable of turning in award-worthy performances. After getting her start as a regular on the short-lived sitcom "Living Dolls" (ABC, 1989), Berry made herself known in a small, but noticeable role as a crackhead opposite Samuel L. Jackson in Spike Lee's "Jungle Fever" (1991). Though underused in subsequent roles in movies like "The Last Boy Scout" (1991) and "Boomerang" (1992), she turned in a finely crafted dramatic performance as a drug-addicted mother trying to regain custody of her son in "Losing Isaiah" (1995). Though her performance as a surprisingly gutsy flight attendant in the action thriller "Executive Decision" (1996) garnered positive reviews, Berry received unwanted public scrutiny for her divorce from husband, baseball hero David Justice and later, from singer Eric Benet as well. Returning to form with a strong supporting role in "Bulworth" (1998), Berry established her dramatic chops and won an Emmy Award for playing the titular role in "Introducing Dorothy Dandridge" (HBO, 1999), a role she had longed to perform. But it was her groundbreaking performance in "Monster's Ball" (2001) that truly established her acting bona fides, while she became the first African-American to win an Oscar for Best Leading Actress. Though Berry's take on the comic book heroine Storm in the "X-Men" franchise earned her blockbuster status, her prancing around as "Catwoman" (2004) earned her certain notoriety and a not-so-coveted Golden Raspberry Award. Nonetheless, Berry had the rare ability to excel in both major tent pole movies and small indie dramas, making her one of the more respected and sought-after actresses and most revered beauties working in Hollywood.

Haley Webb Biography

Name: Haley Webb

Gwyneth Paltrow Biography

NAME: Gwyneth Kate Paltrow

OCCUPATION: Film Actress, Theater Actress, Television Actress

BIRTH DATE: September 27, 1972 (Age: 39)

EDUCATION: University of California, Santa Barbara

PLACE OF BIRTH: Los Angeles

Actress. Born on September 28, 1972, in Los Angeles, California. The daughter of Tony Award-winning actress Blythe Danner and television producer Bruce Paltrow, Gwyneth Paltrow grew up no stranger to the world of Hollywood. After living in Los Angeles, Paltrow moved with her family to New York at age eleven. The precocious young blonde made her stage debut at just five years old in a theater in Massachusetts's Berkshire Mountains, where her mother performed in summer stock.

As she grew up, Paltrow's burgeoning beauty and developing acting talent began to win her small film roles, beginning with Shout and Hook in 1991. After a well-received spot opposite her mother in the television mini-series Cruel Doubt (1992), Paltrow decided to abandon her art history studies at the University of California at Santa Barbara to pursue acting full time.

Oscar- and Golden Globe-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow distinguished herself from the pack of rising young stars in the 1990s with surprisingly mature performances in "Se7en" (1995) and "Shakespeare in Love" (1998), for which she received well-deserved critical praise. With her sharp intelligence and her fair, patrician looks, Paltrow earned comparisons to Grace Kelly as she carved out a steady niche in British period dramas like "Emma" (1996), but kept audiences guessing with occasional comedies like "Shallow Hal" (2001) and richly drawn portraits of complex women, including the fur-wearing eccentric sister in Wes Anderson's "Royal Tenenbaums" (2001). Though she excelled in films like "Proof" (2005), in which she reprised her acclaimed West End role as the troubled daughter of a late mathematics genius, Paltrow also made time for big budget studio films, including the comic book-based "Iron Man" (2008). 

Gwen Stefani Biography

NAME: Gwen Stefani

OCCUPATION: Fashion Designer, Songwriter, Singer

BIRTH DATE: October 03, 1969 (Age: 42)

PLACE OF BIRTH: Anaheim, California

ZODIAC SIGN: Libra

Singer, songwriter, designer. Born on October 3, 1969, in Anaheim, California. After rising to stardom as the lead singer of No Doubt, Gwen Stefani has become a popular and powerful figure in the world of music and fashion.

Learning to sew from her mother, Stefani developed an interest in fashion early on. Her love of music was influenced by her older brother Eric who played a lot of recordings by such ska revival bands as Madness. With friend John Spence as the lead singer, Eric started the group No Doubt, and Gwen soon joined as their second vocalist. Stefani started dating fellow bandmate Tony Kanal around this time.

In early 1987 Gwen's brother Eric and John Spence founded what is now No Doubt. In the beginning Eric asked Gwen to share vocal duties with John. Sadly, not long after No Doubt's incarnation, John Spence committed suicide which left Gwen to rock the mic.The show must go on, and it did, as No Doubt continued to perform in local gigs. In the meantime, Gwen had graduated high school, and followed up her studies at Cal State Fullerton College.

Gwen was forced to juggle the band, her studies, as well as what turned out to be a 7-year long romance with fellow band member, Tony Kanal. In 1989, two new members joined the No Doubt team, guitarist Tom Dumont and drummer Adrian Young. After No Doubt was really attracting a fan base (thanks mostly to their energetic live performances), Flea, the bassist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers recorded a demo for the band in 1990, which led to their signing with Interscope Records.

In 1992, the band released their self-titled debut, but despite the substantial following the band had garnered, the album was far from a commercial success. Their record company was losing faith in their potential, but No Doubt's persistence did not waver.

The group went back into the studio with their own money, and recorded a collection of "extra" songs they had written. Their sophomore effort, The Beacon Street Collection, was released in 1995, and not only struck a cord with their devout fans, but also re-sparked Interscope's confidence in the band.

Weight: N/A

Height: 5 feet 11 inches

Occupation : Model 

As a school girl, she was taunted with the nickname Olive Oil, the waif thin girl friend of Popeye the Sailor in cartoons. Her career as a model started when Gisele was on a school trip to Sao Paulo in 1995 when she was only 15 years old. While grabbing a Big Mac in a shopping mall, she was seen by a modeling agent who approached her and asked if she had any interest in becoming a model. Despite her father's lack of approval of the career choice, he allowed her to move to Sao Paulo and she entered the Elite Look Modeling Competition, and her career took off.

Gisele has modeled for all the major fashion houses such as Ralph Lauren, Versace, Valentino and Chloe. She also has appeared on several magazine covers such as Vogue, Marie Claire, Harper's Bazaar and Rolling Stone.

The last few years of the 1990s saw Gisele really burst into the fashion arena and her debut on the cover on the July 1999 issue of Vogue was supposedly seen as “The Return of the Sexy Model”. The accompanying editorial suggested that her success heralded an end to the ‘heroin chic’ image of models that had pervaded the catwalks of the 1990s. She won the joint VH1-Vogue award for Model of the Year in 1999 and a cover on the January 2000 issue of Vogue allowed her the rare achievement of three consecutive Vogue covers. She has since graced the covers of numerous publications multiple times, including ELLE, Vogue, Esquire and Marie Claire.

Georgia May Jagger is the youngest daughter of Rolling Stones rocker Mick Jagger and supermodel Jerry Hall.

Gemma Ward Biography

Birth Name : Gemma Louise Ward 

Date of Birth : 3 November 1987, Perth, Western Australia, Australia 

Nickname : Gem 

Height : 5' 9" (1.75 m) 

Occupation : Actress  

Gemma Ward was born November 3, 1987, in Perth, Australia. Despite her ravishing looks, the golden-haired green-eyed beauty never set out to be a fashion model. In fact, she was discovered by accident when she attended a taping of the Australian television show, Search for a Supermodel in 2002. As she recalls, “I came to watch my friends. I was sitting there in the crowd when the agent from Perth came over. I didn't even want to enter, it was a bit of chance. I was so shocked when I got my first job.”

At only sixteen, Ward was the youngest model to be listed by American Vogue as one of the nine "It Girls" in the modeling world. She has been in shows for designers such as Versace, Gucci, Chanel, Valentino, Alexander McQueen, and many more. Ward has also graced magazine covers such as Vogue, W, and TIME Magazine's Style and Design issue. In September 2004, at the age of 16, Ward became the youngest fashion model on the cover of the American edition of Vogue and was the first model to appear on the cover of Teen Vogue magazine. She is the first model since Kate Moss to be the face for Calvin Klein's perfume "Obsession Night for Men" along with Philadelphia male model, Drew Keilt.

Ward's career imparted her with a multimillion-dollar fortune well before her 20th birthday and made her face an iconic one, so it was perhaps inevitable (and unsurprising) that she then made the leap from the catwalk into feature films. She took one of her first bows with a lead in the 2007 Aussie feature The_Black_Balloon (as the newfound girlfriend of a teenager who is struggling to care for his mentally ill brother). She then undertook a dramatic change of pace as one of three masked criminals who invade a home and terrorize a family in Bryan_Bertino's thriller The_Strangers.

Undeterred, Renny decided to film the big-budget Cutthroat Island (1995), starring pirate Geena, which also flopped.

Frida Giannini Biography

Name : Frida Giannini 

Date of Birth : 1972

Birth Place : Rome, Italy

Occupation :  Fashion designer 

Frida Giannini was born in 1972, in Rome, Italy. The only child of her architect father and her history professor mother, she credits her parents for instilling her hardworking habits that later became a driving force in her career. After completing her education at the Fashion Academy in her home city, Giannini did an apprenticeship through a ready-to-wear fashion house and worked for the legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld for six years.

In 1997, Frida Giannini joined Fendi as a designer for ready-to-wear clothing, but she was soon asked to create leather goods. As part of the Fendi team, Giannini's ideas were tied to the success of the label's popular Baguette handbag.

In September 2002, she joined Gucci as Handbag Design Director. Two years later, she was appointed to the unprecedented role of Creative Director of Accessories in charge of bags, shoes, luggage, small leathergoods, silks, fine jewellery, gifts, watches and eyewear. She took on the position with her trademark confidence and conviction, and has brought a powerful point-of-view to the house's accessories. 

In March 2005, she was named Creative Director of Gucci Women's ready-to-wear, in addition to her responsibilities for all accessories. In January 2006, she also became in charge of men's wear, thus becoming the sole Creative Director of the label.

Giannini continues to design from heritage. For example, the 2010 Winter Men's line was noted for influences from Gucci's equestrian history. However, Giannini says, "I don't think it is a nostalgic collection, but heritage is good for me — going back to the archives, but looking forward to the future."
