Best Model Poses Biography
Sports Illustrated that led to her contract with Cover Girl.Born September 27, 1947, on an isolated farm in western Minnesota. The daughter of Theodore and Phyllis Tiegs, she moved with her family to the sunny Los Angeles suburb of Alhambra in 1952. Tiegs attended the local public high school, where she was a pep rally leader and played violin in the orchestra.On the advice of a friend, the teenaged Cheryl Tiegs auditioned for and was cast in a handful of television commercials. The exposure coupled with her all-American look landed her on the cover of Glamour magazine in 1964. Immediately inundated with offers, Tiegs moved to New York City in hopes of launching a professional modeling career while her plans to graduate college fell by the wayside.After initially struggling to find work, Tiegs' eventually landed photo shoots with high profile magazines like Vogue and Elle. However, it was the 1978 swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated that changed her career. The now-famous photograph, which featured Tiegs in a seemingly innocent white swimsuit, epitomized her perfect combination of girl-next-door innocence and innate sexuality. The Sports Illustrated feature lead to a wealth of opportunities, including the cover of Time magazine and a $1.5 million contract with Cover Girl cosmetics.In 1980, Tiegs published The Way to Natural Beauty and began using her name and knowledge of fashion to create signature designs for Sears, Roebuck and Co.With in a year, the Cheryl Tiegs casual sportswear line was sold at over 700 stores nationwide and accounted for an estimated $100 million in revenue. Considered one of the pioneers of celebrity-endorsed apparel and credited with bringing sex appeal to the 100-year-old chain, Tiegs was featured on the cover of Time magazine for a second time in 1984.
Tiegs' clothing line was discontinued in 1989, at which time she signed on as the spokesperson for Light 'n' Lively yogurt. In 1995, 47-year-old Tiegs made a very visible comeback when she posed for her fourth Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. She also reentered the fashion business with a new line of womenswear (sold exclusively on QVC), as well as a line of wigs and hair accessories for Revlon Cosmetics. In November 2000, at a gala at the Beverly Wilshire, Tiegs was honored as the first MAC Fashion Icon, a fitting tribute to the all-American girl who became the first American supermodel.In recent years, Tiegs has been involved in a number of projects, including launching her own line of skincare products called Ageless Woman. On television, Tiegs served as a judge on the 2009 reality show True Beauty.

And it is enough to make any sane parent’s hair stand on end.When I read it this week, the first thing that struck me was the price: £20. Do the girls who are the target audience for this book really have that kind of money? Then there was the photograph on the cover: she is depicted as having the unformed face of a toddler. This is deliberate, of course: no tattoo, no nose stud, no joint hanging from that innocent rosebud mouth (in the book, she talks of regularly smoking cannabis). Just over-large blue eyes, like a doll. The image is seductive, certainly. And dangerous. Just like her story. So why is it such a bad thing to print, at her grand old age, the autobiography of a pop star? Aren’t we supposed to feel sorry for a young woman who, as she reveals so graphically, was brought up by a mother with mental health problems, was bullied at school, drugged and date raped at 16, was a member of a gang, but overcame it all to find success, despite having no qualifications at all?
Unfortunately, the impressionable young women who will lap up the book, Honest, will not see it for the improbable, chance-in-a-million story it is. Nor will they be able to read between the lines and see into  the future (viz, that success rarely lasts, that money does not always  bring happiness).The book is dangerous because young women will believe the exact same thing could happen to them — that one day they could be presenting The X Factor, too. Because most young women from Tulisa’s background — indeed, from any background — do not get to have books ghosted for them.In her memoir, she writes about almost losing her virginity aged 12, saved only by the fact that she was so drunk she vomited on her assailant. It finally happens when she is 14, and with an older boy named Jono, who is her drug dealer, no less — at a bed and breakfast in North London.‘He didn’t ask if I was ready to take that step or if I was OK with what was happening, he just went ahead and undressed me and we had sex. Afterwards, I felt slightly numb, knowing I had just lost my virginity. Was that it?’ (For good measure, she adds that at the time she was ‘on and off’ with another boy as well.)There is no self-awareness or responsibility in that account: no mention of birth control, no fear that she might be pregnant, or infected with an STD.I looked hard and nowhere in the book is the word ‘condom’ used. This is because her account has no thought for the girl who might read it and think, OK, this is normal to let this happen. There are no consequences, only stardom.Tulisa writes, too, about self-harming, from the age of 14 until she was 17, and the high it gave her: ‘When Ifirst cut my arm with the scissors, there was a part of me that enjoyed it . . . the sharp pain felt kind of good . . . I started slashing madly at my wrists, causing the blood to pour rather than seep.’She says herself the idea to harm herself only came when she met another young girl whose wrists were bandaged. Tulisa says she also suffered from a compulsion — called dermatillomania (skin picking) — which meant she would use tweezers, clippers and her own fingernails to cause ‘catastrophe on my face, leaving gaping, weeping holes that must have looked horrendous’.
But rather than also write that such self-harm never works, that you can ruin your skin for ever more (surely the only deterrent young girls care about, and another reason her airbrushed cover is so duplicitous), she finishes: ‘I was lucky, my skin always healed quickly without too much scarring.’For all her persona of being a tomboy, and ‘in control’, Tulisa’s relationship with men is stuck in the Victorian era: she put up with violence, but could never for one second exist without a man, even after she has suffered grievously at a man’s hand.The most horrifying section of the book is the description of the date rape. She describes how, when she was 16, she went to a rave with a group of local boys. They were all ‘mates’. One boy slipped a drug into her drink. ‘I was dizzy, could hardly stand up . . . I remember waking up, in the back of a cab. I blacked out again. When I came round, I was in a bedroom, my so-called friend was on top of me, having sex with me. I couldn’t even move, let alone get up or speak.’Next morning, she woke up in this lout’s bedroom, and his mum was standing over her, with a cup of tea. She says she was ‘embarrassed and ashamed’. She never spoke about it, or told the police. ‘I’d like to see someone try that with me now!’ she concludes.Yet she continued to date wildly unsuitable, domineering men, who metaphorically rape her in other ways, such as the release of the infamous sex tape by an ex-boyfriend called Justin Edwards — a DJ, of course — in March of this year.At first Tulisa thinks such a tape impossible, and then, she remembers: ‘I recalled having a terrible hangover after a drunken night with Justin. I remembered him . . . filming me [performing a sex act] because he thought it was funny, and me yelling at him to stop.’But still she plays the victim, unable to see a pattern. She was drunk aged 12; four years later, at that rave, she was drinking again, which indirectly led to her being date raped. If she does not learn from her behaviour, then how will her readers?On stage in The X Factor, she is all about control: the strong, raised salute with her right arm which reveals the tattoo that reads: ‘The female boss.’ But she has never once stopped dating men who leach from her, or been part of a drive to stop young women from binge-drinking. Indeed, her book is a wildly retro, pre-feminist portrayal of what it is to be a woman now.It’s interesting, too, to see how soon after becoming famous she abandoned the tomboy outfits for the retro, man-pleasing Hollywood-style glamour she invests in now, all Veronica Lake blonde quiff and pillarbox red mouth. She’s turned herself into a walking Barbie doll, her past seemingly erased.I had wondered why Simon Cowell chose this girl to be a judge on his talent show, given her paucity of a track record in the public eye — a few hit singles, a couple of tours; her music never made it in the U.S. — but now I can see exactly why.
She is like a worm on the end of a fishing line, a mirror held up to all those other girls out there who believe they are, or are going to be, stars just because they have a tan and fake eyelashes.There is a big difference between a cautionary tale and the one Tulisa’s book presents, which will encourage her fans to believe that no matter how much you drink, or play truant, you will be ferried around in a limo wearing an expensive dress before lounging by a pool. The problem is that too many young women, including Tulisa, have developed a sense of entitlement, however limited their talent or willingness to work hard, let alone get out of bed early. Take what Tulisa says in her book about when her band, N-Dubz, started to make it: ‘We had fought so long for success.’ The woman was barely 18! This new brand of pop is so much worse than the Spice Girls, who at least had solidarity, wore sugary pink and laughed, whereas in this book Tulisa sees other young women as rivals to be fought.The amount of girl-gang violence is graphic and vile: so many times Tulisa is beaten up or attacked with broken bottles, but her solution is never to stay at home and practise her so-called music, but to become ever tougher, to fight back.She recalls one night when her gang of girls — as the only white member she was known as ‘Whitey’ — fought with a rival crowd. One of her allies, ‘one of the hardest bitches I’ve ever met’, removed one of her Timberland boots and starts hitting a girl in the face with it.‘When the girl was crying and bleeding on the floor, the girl from our gang started screaming at her: You f*****g b*****d! Look! You’ve got blood all over my new boots.’When they were not fighting, they were stealing, both from men they mixed with and from women in ‘the richer areas of London, like Hampstead or Swiss Cottage’. Tulisa recalls how they would snatch handbags while she would be ‘the lookout, or the one who hid the bag once it had been stolen’. She admits to feeling guilt afterwards, but explains her actions away by saying: ‘I felt safe with these girls . . . I didn’t want to give that up, even though it meant committing crime.’Who do I blame for all this? I don’t blame Tulisa’s parents — her musician father left home when she was nine. The only commendable part of the book is how it explores what it is like to be the child of someone with mental illness.OK, so do I blame singers such as Rihanna and Tulisa for the effect they have on their young fans, making them believe they have to be pretty, and sexualised, and aggressive and confident and mouthy?
No, I don’t. I blame the record industry for not caring about neither their ‘artists’ nor their fans. They care only about money.I’d have got these record labels and radio stations to have helped foot the bill for the damage done during last year’s riots.But there is one line in the book that really made me laugh: ‘I find it easy to get on with people on the whole.’ I met Tulisa, once. I was with the X Factor contestants she was mentoring in the make-up room backstage during the semi-final of last year’s series.About two hours before the live show, Tulisa turned up in a tracksuit, an entourage of young men in her wake. She came in the room, blanked me, said ‘Hi!’ to her protegees, and then promptly disappeared into her dressing room. She even watched the dress rehearsal via the flatscreen TV in her room (I wonder that she could see it past all the flowers), and only communicated with her singers via email. Why wasn’t she telling them what this book fails to do: ‘You know it could all be over in minutes, this fame stuff.‘Are you sitting A-levels? What I need most as a singer is not lash extensions, but a degree in accountancy. Trust no one, least of all a man . . . and, above all, don’t drink and take drugs: they will destroy you.’Tiegs has been married four times: to advertising executive Stan Dragoti (from 1970-79); to photographer Peter Beard (from 1981-83); to aspiring actor Anthony Peck (from 1990-94), with whom she has one son, Zachary; and most recently to yoga instructor Rod Stryker. After numerous vain attempts to become pregnant on their own, Tiegs and Stryker hired a surrogate mother to carry their child. In July 2000, they became the parents of twin sons, Jaden and Reid. Tiegs and Stryker divorced in 2001.An active environmentalist, Tiegs is on the board of the Earth Conservation Corps. She has also promoted awareness about indoor air quality in a national campaign.

Couple Modeling Poses Biography
Henri Emile Benoît Matisse was born in a tiny, tumbledown weaver's cottage on the rue du Chêne Arnaud in the textile town of Le Cateau-Cambrésis at eight o'clock in the evening on the last night of the year, 31 December 1869 (Le Cateau-Cambrésis  is in the extreme north of  France near the Belgian border). The house had two rooms, a beaten earth floor and a leaky roof. Matisse said long afterwards that rain fell through a hole above the bed in which he was born. Matisse’s ancestors had lived in the area for centuries before the convulsive social and industrial upheavals of the nineteenth century. Matisse grew up in a world that was still detaching itself from a way of life in some ways unchanged since Roman times. The coming of the railway had put Bohain on the industrial map, but people still traveled everywhere on foot or horseback.
Matisse’s father, Émile Hippolyte Matisse, was a grain merchant whose family were weavers. His mother, Anna Heloise Gerard, was a daughter of a long line of well-to-do tanners. Warmhearted, outgoing, capable and energetic, she was small and sturdily built with the fashionable figure of the period: full breasts and hips, narrow waist, neat ankles and elegant small feet. She had fair skin, broad cheekbones and a wide smile. "My mother had a face with generous features," said her son Henri, who always spoke of her with particular tenderness of the sensitivity. Throughout the forty years of her marriage, she provided unwavering, rocklike support to her husband and her sons. Matisse later said: "My mother loved everything I did." He grew up in nearby Bohain-en-Vermandois, an industrial textile center, until the age of ten, when his father sent him to St. Quentin for lycée.Anna Heloise worked hard. She ran the section of her husband's shop that sold housepaints, making up the customers' orders and advising on color schemes. The colors evidently left a lasting impression on Henri.  The artist himself later said he got his color sense from his mother, who was herself an accomplished painter on porcelain, a fashionable art form at the time. Henri was the couple’s first son.The young Matisse was an awkward youth who seemed ill-adapted to the rigors of the North; in particular, he hated the gelid winters. He was a pensive child and by his own account he was a dreamy, frail and not outstandingly bright. In later life he never lost his feeling for his native soil, for seeds and growing things he had encountered in his youth. The fancy pigeons he kept in Nice more than half a century after he left home recalled the weavers' pigeon-lofts tucked away behind even the humblest house in Bohain.Matisse's childhood memories were of a stern upbringing. "Be quick!" "Look out!" "Run along!" "Get cracking!" were the refrains that rang in his ears as a boy. In later years when survival itself depended on habits of thrift and self-denial, the artist prided himself on being a man of the North. When Matisse in turn had children of his own to bring up, he chided himself for any lapse in discipline or open display of tenderness as weakness on his part.In 1887 he went to Paris to study law, working as a court administrator in Le Cateau-Cambrésis after gaining his qualification. Although he considered law as tedious, he nonetheless passed the bar in 1888 with distinction and began his practice begrudgingly. Once Matisse finished school, his father, a much more practical man, arranged for his son to obtain a clerking position at a law office.Matisse’s discovery of his true profession came about in an unusual manner. Following an attack of appendicitis, he began to paint in 1889, when his mother had brought him art supplies during the period of convalescence. He said later, “From the moment I held the box of colors in my hands, I knew this was my life. I threw myself into it like a beast that plunges towards the thing it loves.” Matisse’s mother was the first to advise her son not to adhere to the “rules” of art, but rather listen to his own emotions. Matisse was so committed to his art that he later extended a warning to  his fiancée, Amélie Parayre, whom he later married: “I love you dearly, mademoiselle; but I shall always love painting more.” Matisse had discovered "a kind of paradise" as he later described it. His drastic change of profession deeply disappointed his father.
Two years later in 1891 Matisse returned to Paris to study art at the Académie Julian and became a student of William-Adolphe Bouguereau. After a discouraging year at the Académie Julian, he left in disgust at the overly perfectionist style of teaching there. Afterwards he trained with Gustave Moreau, an artist who nurtured more progressive leanings. In both studios, as was usual, students drew endless figure studies from life. From Bouguereau, he learned the fundamental lessons of classical painting. His one art-schooled technical standby, almost a fetish, was the plumb line. No matter how odd the angles in any Matisse, the verticals are usually dead true. Moreau was a painter who despised the "art du salon", so Matisse was destined, in a certain sense, to remain an "outcast" of the art world. He initially failed his drawing exam for admission to the École des Beaux-Arts, but persisted and was finally accepted.Matisse began painting still-lives and landscapes in the traditional Flemish style, at which he achieved reasonable proficiency. Most of his early works employ a dark palette and tend to be gloomy. Chardin was one of Matisse's most admired painters having made four the French still-life master paintings in the Louvre. Although he executed numerous copies after the old masters he also studied contemporary art.  His first experimentations earned him a reputation as the rebellious member of his studio classes.In 1896, Matisse was elected as an associate member of the Société Nationale, which meant that each year he could show paintings at the Salon de la Société without having to submit them for review. In the same year he exhibited 5 paintings in the salon of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, and the state bought two of his paintings. This was the first and almost only recognition he received in his native country during his lifetime. In 1897 and 1898, he visited the painter John Peter Russell on the island Belle Île off the coast of Brittany. Russell introduced him to Impressionism and to the work of Van Gogh who had been a good friend of Russell but was completely unknown at the time. Matisse's style changed completely, and he would later say "Russell was my teacher, and Russell explained color theory to me." Matisse also observed Russell's and other artists' stable marriages. This probably influenced him to find in Amélie Noellie Parayre, his future wife, his anchor.The Matisses of Bohain and the Parayres of Beauzelle had outwardly nothing in common, and there was no reason why Matisse and Amélie should ever have met. But in October 1897 Matisse went to a wedding in Paris and happened to sit next to her at the uproarious banquet that followed. There had been no banal flirtation between them, even when the wine flowed, each recognized the other as true metal, and when they got up from the table she held out her hand to Henri Matisse in a way that he never forgot. Matisse at that time was not yet the professorial figure of legend. He was known as a prankster, as a ribald and anti-clerical songster, and as someone who had once broken up a café concert performance just for the hell of it. Amélie's relatives operated at that time within a social, intellectual, and political context of which Matisse had had no previous experience. They stood for free thinking, for the separation of church and state, and for the secularization of the French educational system. Her family, better off that that of Matisse, provided the support he needed for the budding artist. When Matisse married Amélie in January 1898, they had been introduced only three months after.Amélie's Aunt Noélie and two of her brothers ran a successful women's shop called the Grande Maison des Modes. Before her marriage, Amélie had shown a gift for designing, making, and modeling hats for a fashionable clientele. In June 1899, she found a partner and opened a shop of her own on the rue de Châteaudun. This allowed Henri and herself to live, with Marguerite, in a tiny two-room apartment on the same street. Madame Matisse, fervently loyal, would play a fundamental role in the life and career of the artist for more than 40 years. Marguerite was to become her father's lifetime mainstay
In 1902 disaster struck. Amélie’s parents were disgraced and financially ruined in a spectacular scandal of national scope, as the unsuspecting employees of a woman whose financial empire was based on fraud. Thanks to his early years in a lawyer's office, Matisse was able to busy himself to great effect in the organization of his father-in-law's defense. When all about him lost their heads, burst into tears, and felt more than sorry for themselves, Henri Matisse dealt with their problems one by one. The ordeal had taken its toll, in more than one way. His doctors ordered Matisse to go to Bohain and take two months' complete rest. Amélie had lost both her hat shop and the apartment on the rue de Châteaudun. For the first time, Henri, Amélie and the three children were united in Bohain, having nowhere else to go.Hillay Spurling, one of Matisse’s biographers, asserts that Amélie’s memories of that public disgrace nurtured a “suspicion of the outside world” that would always mark the Matisse family. The Matisse family formed a kind of hermetic unit which revolved around the artist’s work and profession. They fitted their activities according his breaks and work sessions. Silence was essential. Even during the years when Matisse lived mostly alone in Nice, an annual ritual of unpacking, stretching, framing and hanging ended with the whole family settling down to respond to the paintings. The conference might last several days. Then the dealers were admitted.Matisse and his wife had had two sons, Jean (born 1899) and Pierre (born 1900). He was not always in peace with his family. He wrote that their views were not always in accord “which disturbs me considerably in my work, for which I require the most complete calm and from those how surround me, a serenity that I cannot find here. I intend to move to a village a few league away.”  Pierre, his brother, Jean, and Marguerite remained close to their father through every vicissitude, and Matisse, in his last invalid years, was devoted to his several grandchildren.In 1899, at a time when his paintings displayed rebellious talent but not much clear direction, Matisse began attending classes in clay modeling and sculpture. Assigned to copy one of the sculptural masterpieces in the Louvre, he selected Jaguar Devouring a Hare a violently precise work by  Antoine-Louis Barye. Later, whenever his paintings seemed stuck, he turned to sculpture to organize his thoughts and sensations.Influenced by the works of the post-Impressionists Paul Cézanne, Gauguin, Van Gogh and Paul Signac, and also by Japanese art, Matisse made color a crucial element of his paintings. Matisse said, "In modern art, it is indubitably to Cézanne that I owe the most." By studying Cézanne’s fragmented planes -- which stretched the idea of the still life to a forced contemplation of color surfaces themselves -- Matisse was able to reconstruct his own philosophy of the still life. Many of his paintings from 1899 to 1905 make use of a pointillist technique adopted from Signac. In 1898, he went to London to study the paintings of J. M. W. Turner and then went on a trip to Corsica.
After years in poverty, Matisse went through his "dark period" (1902-03), moved briefly to naturalism, went back to a dark palette and told friends in 1903 that he had lost all desire to paint and had almost decided to give up.Fortunately, Matisse was able to earn some money painting a frieze for the World Fair at the Grand Palais in Paris. He also traveled extensively in the early 1900s when tourism was still a new idea. Brought on by railroad, steamships, and other forms of transportation that appeared during the industrial revolution, travel became a popular pursuit. As a cultured tourist, he developed his art with regular doses of travel.Matisse's career can be divided into several periods that changed stylistically, but his underlying aim always remained the same: to discover "the essential character of things" and to produce an art "of balance, purity, and serenity," as he himself put it. The changing studio environments seemed always to have had a significant effect on the style of his work.In these first years of struggle Matisse set his revolutionary artistic agenda. He disregarded perspective, abolished shadows, repudiating the academic distinction between line and color. He was attempting to overturn a way of seeing evolved and accepted by the Western world for centuries by substituting a conscious subjectivity  in the place of the traditional illusion of objectivity .Matisse hit his stride in the avant-garde art world in the first years of the new decade. He explored the modern art scene through frequent visits to galleries such as Durand-Ruel and Vollard, where he was exposed to work by Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, and Vincent van Gogh.
Matisse’s first solo exhibition took place in 1904, without much success. In 16 May 1905 he arrived in the charming Catalan port of Collioure, in the south of France. He soon invited the painter André Derain (1880-1954), 11 years his junior, to join him. By 1905, Matisse was considered spearhead the Fauve movement in France, characterized by its spontaneity and roughness of execution as well as use of raw color straight from the palette to the canvas. Matisse combined pointillist color and Cézanne’s way of structuring pictorial space stroke by stroke to develop Fauvism - a way less of seeing the world than of feeling it with one’s eyes. When the Fauve summer drew to an end, Derain left Collioure with 30 paintings, 20 drawings and some 50 sketches, never to return, while Matisse departed  some days later bringing back to Paris 15 finished paintings, 40 aquarelles, over 100 drawings. He returned Collioure in the summers of 1906, 1907, 1911 and 1914. The lure of the sun would prove always to have powers of restoration to the artist throughout his life particularly after periods of great emotional exertion.When Fauvist works were first exhibited Salon d'Automne in Paris they created a scandal. Eyewitness accounts tell of laughter emanating from room VII where they were displayed. Gertrud Stein, one of Matisse's most important future supporters, reported that people scratched at the canvases in derision. "A pot of paint has been flung in the face of the public" was the reaction by the critic Camille Mauclair. Louis Vauxcelles described the work with the historic phrase "Donatello au milieu des fauves!" (Donatello among the wild beasts), referring to a Renaissance-type sculpture that shared the room with them. His comment was printed on 17 October 1905 in Gil Blas, a daily newspaper, and passed into popular usage. Derain himself later called the Fauves' color "sticks of dynamite." The painting that was singled out for attacks was Matisse's Woman with a Hat, a portrait of Madame Matisse. This picture was bought be was bought by Gertrude and Leo Stein, a fact which had a very positive effect on Matisse who was suffering demoralization from the bad reception of his work.
Matisse continued his experiments in Collioure, visible in the painting The Open Window and the View of Collioure , also a characteristic work of Fauvism in its raw color and disregard for details. Both of these works of the landscape in the French Mediterranean present a distinct development towards the spontaneous and uninhibited style.
Other than André Derain, Georges Braque, Raoul Dufy and Maurice Vlaminck were also members of the Fauve movement. However, Matisse’s intimate friends among artists were mostly easygoing minor painters, such as Albert Marquet. Matisse’s temperamental aloneness made him prey to vertiginous depressions. He later recalled a breakdown that he underwent in Spain, in 1910: “My bed shook, and from my throat came a little high-pitched cry that I could not stop.”From the onset of is career women were from one of the cardinal motifs of the artist's production. His Joy of Life (1906) draws us into the world of hallucinatory vividness composed of nymphs set in an idyllic open fields dressed in pure color and sensual outline. Two women lounge in the sunlight while two more chat on the edge of the forest. One crouches to pick some flowers while her companion weaves a chain of them into her hair. A couple embraces each other while another group engages in a lively round-dance in the distance. In this way, Joy of Life depicts woodland nymphs engaging in a celebration of their life, their womanhood, and their sexuality. Due to the recurrent incidence of nude women and intensely sensual interpretation many observers have assumed that as a man Matisse must have been a hedonist. On the contrary, historic examination demonstrates that in reality, he was rather a self-abnegating Northerner who lived only to work, and did so in chronic anguish, recurrent panic, and amid periodic breakdowns. While Picasso recompensed himself, as he went along, with gratifications of intellectual and erotic play Matisse did not. In an age of ideologies, Matisse dodged all ideas except perhaps one: that art is life by other means.
Matisse’s uninhibited celebration of women is often believed to have initiated from Cézanne’s painting Three Bathers (1882) (which he had acquired for himself along with a Van Gogh and a Gauguin). However, Matisse depicts women as nurturing, welcoming, and unlike the forbidding, massive clay-like presence of those of Paul Cézanne.Matisse's personal habits were incredibly regular. On a typical day rose early and worked all morning with a second work session after lunch, followed by violin practice, a simple supper (vegetable soup, two hard-boiled eggs, salad and a glass of wine) and an early bedtime.In 1906, he created a series of 12 lithographs, all variations on the theme of a seated nude. He chose to share his graphic work with the public almost immediately. The lithographs were exhibited at the Druet Gallery in Paris the same year that they were produced, and the woodcuts were shown at the Salon des Independants in the spring of 1907.In 1907 Appolinaire, commenting about Matisse in an article published in La Falange, said, "We are not here in the presence of an extravagant or an extremist undertaking: Matisse's art is eminently reasonable." Notwithstanding newly-won fame, Matisse's work continued to encounter vehement criticism and it was difficult for him to provide for his family. His controversial 1907 painting Blue Nude was burned in effigy at the Armory Show in Chicago in 1913. Contrary to the fate of the Impressionists, Matisse and other Fauves were able to exhibit in art galleries. In 1908 Paul Cassirer, the  German art dealer and editor who played a significant role in the promotion of the work the French Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, staged an exhibit of Matisse’s works in Berlin.  In the same year the American photographer Alfred Stieglitz in New York organized him one-man show in his tiny Manhattan gallery called 291 which effectively introduced Matisse the powerful American art market.In the first decade of his notoriety as the leader of the Fauves, Matisse was more admired by foreigners than by the French. It was, after all, the Russians and the Americans who acquired significant collections of his early work almost as quickly as it was created. The great Matisses we see in the Paris museums today were mostly acquired after the artist's death in lieu of death duties. It took the French a good deal longer to understand Matisse's greatness-longer, certainly, than the international cadre of aspiring talents that flocked to his classes when he was still one of the most controversial figures in the Paris avant-garde.
In the summer of 1907, Matisse and his wife went on a long trip to italy "for work and Pleasure," visiting Venice and Padua, where they admired Giotto's frescos. In Florence the were the guests of the Steins in their villa in Fiesole. From this base matisse visited Arezzo, to study Piero della Francesca, and Siena, attracted by the early Sienese painters, especially, Duccio.In April of 1906 during a gathering at the house of the legendary Gertrude Stein, Matisse was introduced to Pablo Picasso who was 11 years younger.  Picasso and Matisse were poles apart aesthetically and their life styles were no less so. Matisse was markedly taller and more polished than the stocky, cocky Catalan, was then ruler of the turbulent Paris avant-garde art scene. The two were said to have always been looking over their shoulders at each other. It is well-known that after their rivalry grew, sides were taken. Picasso later said: "No one has ever looked at Matisse's paintings more carefully than I; and no one has looked at mine more carefully than he."One key difference between their pictorial concepts was that Matisse drew and painted from nature, while Picasso was much more inclined to work from imagination. The subjects painted most frequently by both artists were women and still lives, with Matisse more likely to place his figures in fully realized interiors.Gertrude Stein, who loved stirring things up, wrote, "the feeling between the Picassoites and the Matisse-ites became bitter." Although Matisse dryly noted that "our disputes were always friendly," it should be pointed out that Picasso and his friends threw suction-cupped darts at Matisse's 1906 Portrait of Marguerite (which Picasso had obtained in a trade for his own Pitcher, Bowl and Lemon, from 1907). While the rift between the two artists eventually healed, the one between their supporters remained.Although it lasted for only three years (1908-11), and yet, during its brief existence the Académie Matisse became one of the principal crossroads of modern painting for a number of gifted European and American artists. Given the reputation Matisse had acquired as the"wild man" of modernist color, it must have come as a shock to some of his early students that the program of instruction he offered was remarkably conservative. As Jean Heiberg, the first Norwegian to enroll in the Académie, later wrote in a memoir: "The school had, at Matisse's suggestion, acquired a copy of two antique sculptures from the Louvre, Mars and an archaic sculpture, which he often used to demonstrate. Every now and then he got completely rid of the life model and we only drew from the plaster casts, and his critiques then were no less profitable."
Among Matisse’s students was Olga Meerson, a Russian Jew who had studied with Wassily Kandinsky in Munich and, already possessed of an elegant style, sought to remake herself under Matisse’s tutelage. Amélie suspected the worst. Perhaps a combination of Amélie’s jealousy and Meerson’s  neediness caused a  Matisse to end the connection, with bad feeling all around. Meerson moved to Munich, where she married the musician Heinz Pringsheim, a brother-in-law of Thomas Mann. Never having fulfilled her promise as a painter, she committed suicide in Berlin, in 1929. One of Matisse's biographers, with access to much of the artist's correspondence, contends that the artist, after his marriage, rarely, if ever, had sex with models, despite his apparent feelings for many.Two Russian art collectors stood out at the beginning of the 20th century: the cloth merchant Sergei Shchukin (1854–1936) and the textile manufacturer Ivan Morozov (1871–1921). Both acquired modern French art, developed a sensibility for spotting new trends, and publicized them in Russia.In this period, Matisse had initiated his fecund association with the Russian textile magnate and visionary collector, Sergei Shchukin. The artist created one of his major works La Danse specially for Shchukin as part of a two painting commission. Inspired by a circular dance-- perhaps a sardana - performed by fishermen at Collioure, this painting embodies the clash between the sacred and reality. Human hands link together, but they form a divine spirit. Moreover, Matisse all but abandoned perspective The work ’s flatness emphasizes the idea, colors, and material, a notion that made Matisse a model for Modernists. The other painting commissioned was Music, 1909.
Shchukin was considered by some almost as a co-producer of some of the artist’s greatest works and was strongly commuted to the French painter’s work. Concerning the violent attacks on his friend, the Russian wrote to the artist: “The public is against you, but the future is yours.” By 1914 Shchukin’s house in Moscow contained thirty-seven Matisses. “He always picked the best,” the artist said.During the political revolution Lenin expropriated Shchukin collection in person but allowed Shchukin to remain, in servants’ quarters, as caretaker and guide. He died in Paris, in 1936. The collection is now in the Hermitage and Pushkin Museums From about 1911 to 1915, Matisse struggled with the ideas of Cubism, an experiment he felt he was "not participating in" because it did not "speak to [his] deeply sensory nature."Like many avant-garde artists in Paris, Matisse was receptive to a broad range of influences. He is one of the first painters to take an interest in various forms of “primitive” art. His art was profoundly influenced by Easter art as well. Matisse first flirted with the idea of visiting Morocco after a trip to the Moorish part of Spain in the winter of 1910. This taste of the Moors incited a flame of hope that there would be greater inspiration to paint in Morocco. Furthermore, well aware of the exotic subjects in Morocco that had engendered a wealth of inspiration for the famous French painter Delacroix when he visited the country over eighty years before, Matisse felt Morocco would stimulate his painting genius in ways Europe could not. He strove for neither the picturesque nor the pornographic. In Morocco, Matisse seems to have had difficulties finding models who would pose for him, particularly women because of the law of the veil. Only Jewesses and prostitutes were exempt. Luckily, Matisse to have found the prostitute Zorah for the purpose  although  he did not paint her as a prostitute. Instead, in his first picture of her, Zorah en Jaune, sexual themes are most conspicuously absent from the canvas. As a prostitute used to exposing and flaunting her body, Zorah could have easily been painted nude or with less clothing to show herself off, but instead Matisse chooses to keep her clothed and posed with prudence. Unlike the primitive, nude Western women in the Fauve Joy of Life.  Moroccan Zorah is clothed with respect and detail to her finer characteristics. He is developing his ability to paint with awareness of the non-sexual qualities of his subject, a movement away from Fauve women.Many of Matisse's Moroccan paintings are covered only in the thinnest washes of pigment, as if he wanted the texture of the unpainted canvas to show through so that it would add rawness to the browns and grays. Matisse's odalisques have been described as "elaborate fictions" in which the artist re-created the image of the Islamic harem using French models posed in his Nice apartment. The fabrics, screens, carpets, furnishings and costuming recalled the exoticism of the "Orient" and provided a theme for Matisse's preoccupation with the figure and elaborate patterns of exotic fabrics.Although Matisse's interest in textiles are evident in his compositions made during his 1906 trip to Morocco, it didn't begin as a typical European attraction to the exotic. It was already present to him as a descendent of generations of weavers, who was raised among weavers in Bohain-en-Vermandois, which in the 1880's and 90's was a center of production of fancy silks for the Parisian fashion houses. Like virtually all his northern compatriots, he had an inborn appreciation of their texture and design. He understood the properties of weight and hang, he knew how to use pins and paper patterns, and he was supremely confident with scissors.Matisse was known to be an avid collector of fabrics, from his days as a poor art student in Paris to the latter years of his life, when his Nice studio overflowed with Persian carpets, delicate Arab embroideries, richly hued African wall hangings, and any number of colorful cushions, curtains, costumes, patterned screens, and backcloths. Textiles soon became the springboard for his radical experiments with perspective and an art based on decorative patterning and pure harmonies of color and line. When he moved house, he also moved his fabrics, describing them as "my working library." He added to the collection all his life, from markets in Algeria, Morocco and Tahiti to the end-of-season sales of Parisian haute couture.The revitalizing spirit of Morocco would live on in the artist's imagination until the cutouts of the artist's last years.

Refer to his fitness tape and book.Gisele Caroline Nonnenmacher Bündchen was born on 20 July 1980 in the Brazilian town of Tres de Maio to Vania Nonnenmacher, a bank clerk pensioner, and Valdir Bundchen, a university teacher. She grew up in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, with her five sisters: Raquel, Graziela, Gabriela, Rafaela, and Patricia, who is Gisele’s twin and younger than her by only five minutes. The region in Southern Brazil where Gisele is from has a large population of Brazilians of German descent. Gisele herself is of distant German descent on both her maternal and paternal sides: she had great-great grandparents who came to Brazil from Germany, and she maintains that she belongs to the sixth generation of her family in Brazil. She was raised as a Roman Catholic, speaking Portuguese as her first language and English as her second, though she learnt some German in school but admits to unfortunately forgetting most of it.Gisele originally wanted to be a professional volleyball player and supposedly toyed with the idea of pursuing it by playing for the Brazilian national team. In 1993, though, at just 13, she and two of her sisters were encouraged by their mother to enroll in a modeling course. The next year, the 14-year-old was discovered in a shopping mall by a modeling agency and was later selected for the national Elite Look of the Year contest, where she came in second place. She went on to be placed fourth in the world contest, in Spain, and moved to New York City in 1996 to debut her modeling career at Fashion Week.
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. Moreover, she has also been seen in publications that reach a broader platform outside of fashion and glamour, including Time and Newsweek. Gisele frequently works with famous photographers such as Mario Testino, Annie Leibovitz and Karl Lagerfeld and rivals the late Princess Diana for the largest number of magazine cover features in the world.As well as gracing the covers of magazines worldwide, Gisele has multiple endorsements which keep her modeling career thriving. She is the face of numerous high fashion advertising campaigns such as Christian Dior, Dolce and Gabbana, Versace, Louis Vuitton and Victoria’s Secret, to name a few. She recently finished her contract with Victoria’s Secret but chose not to renew it. Gisele insisted that this was because she wanted to move onto other things, and was not a matter of payment disagreements. Other business ventures include Gisele’s own line of flip-flops, Ipanema Gisele Bündchen, which can sell for as much as $230 for one pair. The model also owns the Palladium Executive, a hotel in Southern Brazil. Forbes magazine names her as the world’s top earning model in the World’s Top Earning 15 Supermodels list in 2007.It is not just Gisele’s stunning face that people are interested in, but her personal life too. Numerous controversies surrounding her and her career have delighted the press who are consistently interested in this breathtaking supermodel. In 2002, the model was made the target for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) anti-fur protestors, when she was signed to be the new face of Blackglama, a trademark of a fur farming cooperative. At the Victoria’s Secret annual fashion show, four women rushed the stage with placards that read: ‘Gisele: Fur Scum’ along with the PETA logo. She tried to ignore the protestors while security guards rushed to control them. Gisele later told CNN that the protest was unnecessary as the show only featured faux fur and that she was one of the biggest animal lovers in the world. Despite her claims that the interruption was unwarranted, she later admitted that it was a poor decision on her part and that she no longer wears fur. Curiously, though, she was later pictured on the cover of a 2005 issue of Chinese Vogue wearing fox fur.Gisele encountered another controversy when she appeared on the Annie Leibovitz-shot cover of the April 2008 issue of Vogue with LeBron James. The basketball superstar was the first black man to feature on the front of Vogue, but the cover was immediately criticised for conveying James in a light they deemed as racist, as he and Gisele had been positioned in a pose reminiscent of the famous movie poster for King Kong, where King Kong is carrying Fay Wray. Further criticism arose when one website compared it to the World War I propaganda recruitment poster entitled ‘Destroy This Mad Brute’, though all allegations of a racist depiction have been dismissed by the magazine officials.
Gisele dated actor Leonardo DiCaprio for five years, during which time they featured on numerous magazines’ ‘most beautiful couple’ lists. They broke up briefly in 2002, only to reunite until a final break-up in 2005. Together the couple had bought a dog, Jango, and now share custody over the pet as if it were a child. Gisele has remained close to Leonardo’s family, particularly his mother, much to the delight of the tabloids, which see this as an indication that the actor’s family still want to see the two together. Leonardo DiCaprio later began dating Israeli model Bar Refaeli, who, at the beginning of their relationship, was depicted as a Gisele look-a-like by the press.Gisele has been dating Tom Brady, the all-star quarterback for the New England Patriots American football team, since just before Christmas 2006. One US newspaper reported that the Brazilian supermodel was spotted waiting for Brady outside of the Patriots’ locker room after a game in early January, 2007. The relationship became bigger news after it was revealed that Brady had ended a three-year romance with actress Bridget Moynahan – best known for her role on Six Degrees and as Mr. Big’s glamorous wife on 'Sex and the City' – around the time that she became pregnant with their child, Brady Thomas. Bündchen and Brady spend most of their time at their home in Back Bay, Boston, and continue to lead a relatively low key lifestyle together.Gisele married Brady in a small, Catholic ceremony in California on 26 February 2009. They later renewed their vows in front of friends and family, including Tom’s son Jack, at a larger event in Costa Rica, in April of the same year. In June, the happy couple announced that they were expecting their first child, after speculation had arisen over Gisele’s growing figure on the catwalk. Brady said of her pregnancy: “The women are the ones who have to do the work, we just have to be there to support them and so it’ll be nice to do that.”After giving birth to Benjamin Rein in December, Gisele soon gained even more tabloid notoriety for regaining her pre-pregnancy figure so quickly, as well as announcing in a Vogue interview that the only pain medication she used throughout the birth was “meditation”. In the same interview she spoke of her post-baby body, saying: “I think its muscle memory. I did kung fu up until two weeks before Benjamin was born and yoga three days a week. I was mindful about what I ate, and I gained only 30 pounds.”Her career has not faltered, and in 2010 she made Vogue’s best-dressed-of-the-decade list, and has continued to grace the covers of the top fashion magazines. More recently she has been embroiled in a sexism row over her appearance in the television commercial for Brazilian lingerie brand Hope. The advert suggests that their underwear makes it easier to tell your partner you have done wrong, for example by crashing his car, if you are wearing only underwear. Brazilian government officials said: “The campaign promotes the misguided stereotype of a woman as a sexual object of her husband and ignores the major advances we have achieved in deconstructing sexist practices and thinking.”

The producers at BIO.com review hundreds of photos of famous figures each week, from award-winning actors and popular singers, to headliners and scandal makers. While we're digging through these archives, we often come across amazing photos that we're just dying to share. So, without further ado, here's the one image that stands out to us this week:January 11th, 1935 marks one of the many atmospheric accomplishments that Amelia Earhart achieved during her short but powerful run as the world's most famous Aviatrix. Taking off from Honolulu, Hawaii, she would make her way to Oakland, California, where she would become the first woman to fly solo across the Pacific Ocean. Earhart ruled the skies from the 1920s on through the 30s, breaking many records while astounding a global audience. And even now her legacy holds a permanent place flying high above us all.As one of the most impressively talented members of the emerging New Hollywood of the early 21st century, Reese Witherspoon has proven that she can do far more than just pose winsomely for the camera. Born March 22, 1976, in Nashville, TN, Witherspoon was a child model and acted in television commercials from the age of seven. She had a part in the 1991 Lifetime cable movie Wildflower before making her 1991 film debut in the coming-of-age story The Man in the Moon (1991). The 14-year-old Witherspoon made an immediate impact on critics and audiences alike, netting widespread praise for her portrayal of a tomboy experiencing love for the first time.While still in high school, Witherspoon completed two more feature films, Jack the Bear (1993), starring Danny_De_Vito, and Disney's A_Far_Off_Place (1993), which required the actress to spend several months living in the Kalahari Desert. Following a supporting role in the 1993 CBS miniseries Return to Lonesome Dove and a lead in the critically disembowelled S.F.W., Witherspoon temporarily set aside her career to study English literature at Stanford University. She then returned to film as the abused girlfriend of a psychotic Mark_Wahlberg in the thriller Fear (1996). In the same year, she had to deal with yet another crazed male in Freeway, a satirical version of -Little Red Riding Hood in which Witherspoon co-starred with Kiefer_Sutherland, who took on the role of the aforementioned crazed male.Her career began to take off in 1998, with roles in two high-profile films. The first, Twilight, saw her sharing the screen with Gene_Hackman, Susan_Sarandon, and Paul_Newman. The film received mixed reviews and lackluster box office, but Pleasantville, her other project that year, proved to be both a critical and financial hit. The actress won wide recognition for her leading role as Tobey_Maguire's oversexed sister, and this recognition -- along with critical respect -- increased the following year with another leading role, in Alexander_Payne's acclaimed satire Election. Starring opposite Matthew_Broderick, Witherspoon won raves for her hilarious, high-strung portrayal of student-council presidential candidate Tracy Flick. The character stood in stark contrast to the one Witherspoon subsequently portrayed in Cruel_Intentions, Roger_Kumble's delightfully trashy all-teen update of Dangerous_Liaisons. As the virginal Annette, Witherspoon was convincing as the object of Ryan_Phillippe's reluctant affection, perhaps due in part to her real-life relationship with the actor, whom she married in June 1999.After turning up in an amusing minor role as serial killer Patrick Bateman's burnt-out yuppie girlfriend in American_Psycho (2000), Witherspoon again pleased critics and audiences alike with her decidedly Clueless-esque role in 2001's Legally_Blonde. Her star turn as a seemingly dimwitted sorority blonde-turned-Harvard law-school-prodigy unexpectedly shot the featherweight comedy to number one, despite such heavy summer contenders as Steven_Spielberg's A.I. and the ominously cast heist thriller The_Score. The 18-million-dollar film went on to gross nearly 100 million dollars, proving that Witherspoon had finally arrived as a box-office draw.Though she would test out her chops in the Oscar_Wilde adaptation The Importance of Being Earnest, Witherspoon's proper follow-up to Legally_Blonde came in the form of 2002's Sweet_Home_Alabama, a culture-clash romantic comedy as embraced by audiences as it was rejected by critics. As with Drew_Barrymore before her, Witherspoon used her newfound standing among the Hollywood elite to start her own production company, Type A Films, as well as to up her asking price to the rarefied 15-million-dollar range for the sequel to Legally_Blonde. Though Blonde_2 didn't perform quite as well as the first film, the power player/doting mother of two wasted no time in prepping other projects for the screen, taking the lead in 2004's elaborate costume drama Vanity_Fair as Becky Sharp, a woman who strives to transcend class barriers in 19th century England. For all its lavish costumes and sets, Vanity_Fair received mixed reviews, but Witherspoon's winning performance still garnered praise.Photographer Annie Leibovitz was born October 2, 1949, in Waterbury, Connecticut. In 1970 she took a job at Rolling Stone magazine. In 1983 she began working for the entertainment magazine Vanity Fair. During the late 1980s, Leibovitz started to work on a number of high-profile advertising campaigns. From the 1990s to the present, she has been publishing and exhibiting her work.Photographer. Born Anna-Lou Leibovitz, on October 2, 1949, in Waterbury, Connecticut. She was one of the six children born to Sam, an Air Force lieutenant, and Marilyn Leibovitz, a modern dance instructor. In 1967, Leibovitz enrolled at the San Francisco Art Institute, where (although initially studying painting) she developed a love for photography.
After living briefly on an Israeli kibbutz, Leibovitz returned to the U.S., in 1970, and applied for a job with the start-up rock music magazine Rolling Stone. Impressed with Leibovitz’s portfolio, editor Jann Wenner offered her a job as a staff photographer. Within two years, the 23-year-old Leibovitz was promoted to chief photographer - a title she would hold for the next 10 years. Her position with the magazine afforded her the opportunity to accompany the Rolling Stones band on their 1975 international tour.While with Rolling Stone, Leibovitz developed her trademark technique, which involved the use of bold primary colors and surprising poses. Wenner has credited her with making many Rolling Stone covers collector's items, most notably an issue that featured a nude John Lennon curled around his fully clothed wife, Yoko Ono. Taken on December 8, 1980, Leibovitz’s photo of the former Beatle was shot just hours before his death.
The next year, she appeared in the heaven-can-wait romantic comedy Just_Like_Heaven with Mark_Ruffalo, as well as James_Mangold's biopic Walk the Line as June_Carter_Cash, wife of country music legend Johnny_Cash. This role proved to be a pivotal one, earning Witherspoon both a Best Actress Academy Award and a Golden Globe for her performance, and cementing her as an actress whose abilities go far beyond her charm and pretty face.As with others before her, however, the Best Actress statue portended a breakup between her and her husband; in October, 2006, she and Phillippe began their divorce proceedings, shortly after his starring turn in Clint_Eastwood's Flags of Our Fathers. Career-wise, however, she didn't miss a beat, continuing to appear in popular romantic comedies like Four Christmases and Just_Like_Heaven, before getting more serious for the 1930's period drama Water for Elephants in 2011. By the next year, Witherspoon was crossing genres, playing the femme fatale at the center of a love triangle between two deadly secret agents in the action comedy This Means War.

Modeling Poses Male Biography
Clynes is one of those guys who didn’t stumble into modeling and he wasn’t scouted either. At the age of 19 he left his home in Fl. and headed to New York with the intention and ambition to become a male model. And his leap of faith certainly paid off, quickly being signed to work with “Click Talent” management.
While starting out his new career posing in front of the camera, he soon discovered an interest in acting also, and spent several years learning the art of being someone else with conviction. That paid off too, and since his days of working to achieve his goals he’s worked as a model for some major brands including “A&F”, “JCPenny”, “DKNY” underwear and “Macy’s”, as well as appearing in several magazines including the cover of “Cosmopolitan” magazine.But his acting is also right up there, having appeared in “30 Rock“, “Ugly Betty”, “All My Children” and “CSI: New York”. And his talents spread to the stage as well, appearing in “Great White Way”, “A Chorus Line”, “The Full Monty”, and “Beauty and The Beast” to name a few.Caroline Cossey (whose professional name is Tula) was born on August 31, 1954 in Brooke, England, United Kingdom, with male sex organs, under the name Barry Cossey. Throughout her teenage years, even though anatomically she was a male, she was extremely feminine, tall, very thin, and often was mistaken for being female (even before transitioning). Later tests would prove that her chromosomes were in fact XXXY, which make her genetic makeup sexually ambiguous...in other words her genetics are more female than male, which gave her the extremely female appearance naturally, no facial surgery altering. She was not "just a male" as many have implicated. Original reports in this biography have said she had XY chromosomes, which is incorrect. Later, in her late teens (17), she moved to a part of town where other transgendered women helped her transition to the female gender, and she began living entirely as a female, underwent breast augmentation surgery, and in the early 1970s worked as a topless dancer to raise money for sex-reassignment surgery (completely concealing her "male" parts in custom-made (very uncomfortable) underwear. Ms. Cossey posed topless for several well-known adult magazines still as a pre-operative transsexual, the photographers completely unaware of her "addition". In 1974 she had her (long-awaited) sex-reassignment surgery performed at Charing Cross Hospital in London, England. Her career then took off as a fashion model because her Amazon Goddess height of 6 feet was in strong demand, and her beauty attracted photographers from everywhere. She modeled for various agencies, advertisements, and appeared on numerous well-known magazine covers, as well as countless spreads, including the glamourous Vogue.
She was cast in the 1981 James Bond movie "For Your Eyes Only", credited only as "Girl At Pool". Major scandal erupted following the release of "For Your Eyes Only" when she was outed as a transsexual by the Sunday tabloid, "The News Of The World". She was hounded by the press, persecuted by tabloid journalists and photographers asking incredibly ignorant questions. Caroline fell into a deep depression, and contemplated suicide, feeling her professional career was in ruins and completely over. In 1982, she wrote an autobiography titled "Tula: I Am A Woman", which was told in straight-forward terms to defuse the situation by telling the full story, in her words. She eventually returned to modeling, in 1983 was the star/model of the music video "Rio" by Duran Duran, then in 1986 was featured as the model in the music video "Some Like It Hot" by Power Station. She has done several pictorials in Playboy magazine, the first (out) post-op transsexual to appear in the publication. In 1990, she published a second autobiography "My Story". Unfortunately she had a failed engagement with Count Glauco, an Italian national, in 1983, for his family forbid him to marry a transsexual. Caroline has worked hard and endlessly for transsexual equal rights, and on attempting to have the British Government recognize transsexual marriages. In 1989 she had a brief marriage to Elias Fattal that only lasted a couple weeks. She re-married in 1992 to Canadian-born David Finch, and as of 2003, she is still successfully married to David; both reside in Atlanta, Georgia, and are both actively involved in the transsexual community in USA, England, and around the world. They are living happily ever after.Caroline Cossey (whose professional name is Tula) was born on August 31, 1954 in Brooke, England, United Kingdom, with male sex organs, under the name Barry Cossey.

A bit of effort guys, get down the gym. Any negative comments from men are because they are jealous. (I`m being cheeky by the way..... how many times do guys write this to us female readers, on the comments board????) - Mom, West Mids, 12/10/2012 16:29 Errm, none? I have never seen an article with loads of mostly naked female models, with men saying "this is how all women should be like". Bit of a stupid point to make. You don't hear anyone on here seriously a talking about the sexualisation of men do you? Gotta love those double standards.
Yves Henri-Donat Matthieu-Saint Laurent was born on 1 August 1935 in Oran, Algeria to Charles and Lucienne Saint Laurent. He had two younger sisters called Michelle and Brigette for whom he designed dresses in his early years. At the age of 18 years, he moved to Paris where he enrolled in the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture where his designs gained more attention. Saint Laurent was introduced to designer Christian Dior by Michel De Brunoff, the editor of French Vogue.To start with, he was given mundane tasks to complete but after winning first prize in the International Wool Secretariat contest for his cocktail dress design in 1954, Yves Saint Laurent landed the job of Haute Couture designer when Dior died in 1957 at the age of 52. At the tender age of 21, he launched a spring collection for the fashion house and gained critical acclaim for his dresses as the head of the House of Dior.
In 1960, he was conscripted into the French Army. His spell in the service was short-lived however, and he was transferred into a French mental hospital suffering from stress, where he underwent psychiatric treatment, including electroshock therapy, for a nervous breakdown. He served in the military for just 20 days.In 1962, in the wake of his nervous breakdown, Saint Laurent was released from Dior and started his own label, YSL, financed by his companion, Pierre Bergé. The Rive Gauche boutiques for women were established in 1966, and men's wear followed in the 1970s. He was the first designer to use ethnic minorities as models on the runway.He was also known during this period as one of 'Paris' jet-set' due to always being seen in French and US night clubs. He was a heavy drinker and frequent user of cocaine during the 1960s and 1970s.'YSL' is perhaps most famous for "Le Smoking" tuxedo jacket, see-through blouses, peasant blouses, bolero jackets, pantsuits and smocks. By feminising the basic shapes of the male wardrobe, YSL set new standards for world fashion. He not only adapted the male tuxedo for women, but also safari jackets, pea jackets and flying suits.His 1971 radical '40s' collection shocked critics, as did the advertising campaign for the first YSL men’s fragrance, 'Pour Homme' which featured Yves himself posing nude. In 1977, YSL launched the very popular 'Opium' perfume.
In 1983, he became the first living fashion designer to be given a solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.In 1993, the Saint Laurent fashion house was sold to the pharmaceuticals company, Sanofi, for approximately $600,000,000.YSL held a 300-model fashion extravaganza at the final match of the 1998 World Cup football tournament in the Stade de France, and the following year he was awarded a 'Lifetime Achievement’ award from The Council of Fashion Designers of America.On his retirement, Saint Laurent became increasingly reclusive and spent much of his time at his house in Marrakech, Morocco.
In 2007, he was made a Grand Officer de la Legion d'honneur by French President Nicholas Sarkozy.
Aged 71, he died from brain cancer in June 2008 on a rare trip back to his native Paris. President Sarkozy said in tribute, "Yves Saint Laurent was convinced that beauty was a necessary luxury for all men and all women." A few days before his death he married his long-term partner Berge in a civil ceremony.
His body was cremated and his ashes scattered in the Majorelle Garden in Morocco, which he regularly visited and found to be inspiring.A number of the designer's belongings were sold at auction the year after his death, including Egyptian sculptures and paintings by Picasso. He had collected these works with Berg who decided to sell them as 'it has lost the greatest part of its significance'. Some of the proceeds were donated towards creating a new foundation devoted to Aids research.Anna Bradfield was born on January 1, 1979 in LaGrange, Georgia, where she is still a resident, sharing a home with her husband and son. She likes to keep updated on the latest fashion trends and news by reading Jane Magazine. Dolce & Gabbana is her favorite clothing designer. She enjoys eating a plate of spaghetti once in a while and names Deliver Us From Eva as her favorite movie. Anna tried her luck as a plus-sized model on America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 2, and was one of the 12 girls chosen to compete in the Finals. During her brief stay in the show, her fellow Top Model finalist, Xiomara Frans , gave Anna the pet name “Momma.” Anna was the first to be eliminated from the show after she refused to do the photo shoot. The challenge was to pose as “Eve,” therefore requiring the girls to strip down. The girls would be posing alongside a male model (who is supposed to play “Adam”), who would be naked as well. Anna felt that only her husband has the right to see her with no clothes, thus, she refused to do the photo shoot. Since she has returned home, she continued to care for her son and pursue her career. When asked about her refusal to do her last ANTM photoshoot, she admitted that she had no regrets.The girls get a tough lesson about what to wear and what not to wear by two fashion mavens. Next, the models must work in groups to create a department store display using themselves as mannequins. One model takes the advice of her teammates, but later takes all the credit for it. At the photo shoot, the girls must transcend their gender by posing as men alongside male models who pose as women. One model shocks everyone as she transforms into her male character. The judges send one model home. Special guests include guest judge Cathy Gould, Director of Elite Model Management, Elite model Claudia Mason, photographer Richard Reinsdorf and former models and fashion experts, Lawrence and Gregory Zarian.
