I liked to dress in skimpy clothing and go dancing in Vegas (at 18, I could get into clubs there). One night I was approached by a girl from L.A. who said I could get paid to dress like that and dance in night clubs, so I started go-go dancing in Hollywood and Las Vegas."

Dita Von Teese

Born on September 28, 1972
Dita Von Teese is a popular American burlesque artist, model and actress.





As a teenager, Von Teese's mother took her to buy her first bra, made from plain white cotton, and gave her a plastic egg containing a pair of wrinkly, flesh-coloured tights. Von Teese says she was disappointed as she had been hoping to receive beautiful lacy garments and stockings, of the type she had glimpsed in her father's Playboy magazines. This fueled her passion for lingerie. She worked in a lingerie store as a salesgirl when she was fifteen, and eventually as a buyer. Some people believe that this is the store where she purchased her first corset, however Dita states in her book that she purchased her first corset in a sex shop. Von Teese has been fond of wearing elaborate lingerie such as corsets and basques with fully fashioned stockings ever since.

Von Teese began her career in a local strip club when she was eighteen. Disappointed with the lack of originality in all the other strippers' acts, Von Teese created a vintage-inspired outfit, with beehive hairstyle and elbow-length gloves coupled with a basque and seamed stockings, piquing the interest of the clientele

It was during this time at the strip club that she began some glamour modeling, before she eventually became a fetish model. Her retro pin-up look, frequently emulating Bettie Page in photo shoots, set her apart from most other fetish models.

Her official website, often referred to as one of the first model sites on the internet, was created in 1992. Von Teese has maintained meticulous care to own the copyright to the majority of her images, very aware of what became of models, such as Bettie Page, who did not.

Von Teese is also an occasional actress. In her early years she appeared in fetish-related, soft-core pornographic movies, such as Romancing Sara, Matter of Trust, in which she is billed as Heather Sweet, and also in two films by Andrew Blake: Pin Ups 2 and Decadence

She has also done various catwalk work. During Los Angeles Fashion Week, Spring 2004, she modeled for former-club kid Richie Rich's fashion label, Heatherette. In 2005 she appeared in the Autumn/Winter Ready-to-Wear show for Giambattista Valli, a former designer for Ungaro, in Paris. In the 2006 Milan Fashion Week, Von Teese was on the runway, opening for the Moschino diffusion label, Moschino Cheap & Chic, autumn/winter 2006/7 show. In 2007, she appeared twice in the Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture show during the Paris Fashion Week. Additionally, she has starred in several ad campaigns. She appeared in Vivienne Westwood's spring/summer 2005 collection adverts and became the face of Australian clothing range Wheels and Dollbaby for their 2006/7 Spring/Summer advertising campaign. Currently, she is a spokesmodel for MAC Cosmetics. Von Teese has appeared in Vanity Fair, Vogue, Elle, and international issues of nearly every fashion magazine. She has also campaigned on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), and appeared in their ads. Most recently she has become the new face of Wonderbra

Tulip Joshi

Born in Bombay, India, on September 11, 1979
Tulip Joshi, is an Indian model and actress in Bollywood.

"What I like best is that I look different in each ads"
-Tulip Joshi


Tulip is half Gujarati and half Armenian. Her mother was born in Lebanon and later moved to India. Tulip was brought up in Mumbai, and attended the Jamnabai Narsee School, and later Mithibai College from where she graduated in food science and chemistry. She excelled in sports, competing in athletics at the National level.

Tulip entered the Femina Miss India Contest in 2000. She did not make it to the list of winners, but was noticed by many advertising agencies. She appeared in a number of advertising campaigns for big brands (Ponds, Pepsi, Siyaram, BPL, Smirnoff, etc.). (She also appeared in a video made as a tribute to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

Tulip entered movies quite by chance. She was a friend of the bride of Aditya Chopra, the son of director Yash Chopra. The family noticed her at their wedding and asked her to appear for an audition, following which they cast her in Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai.

Not being fluent in Hindi, she trained in Hindi diction and in acting at Feroze Khan’s studio. She was also advised by the film-makers to change her name to something more Indian, as audiences might have difficulty in accepting a heroine with such an unconventional name. She chose the name Sanjana, she was playing the character of Anjali in that film.

The film was quite a success Despite the good reviews and success, Tulip was heavily panned for her acting.

Afterwards, she vanished from cinema for two years because of severe back problems resulting from a shifted spine and a slipped disc. She reappeared in Matrubhoomi - a dark film about a futuristic world with almost no women. Her performance in it was praised and established her credibility as an actress.

Reverting back to her given name, Tulip next appeared in the Telugu film Villain. Her next Hindi movie was Dil Maange More with Shahid Kapoor, Ayesha Takia and Soha Ali Khan. The film got average reviews but it was not a box office success.

She appeared in her first punjabi film in 2009 called "Jag Jeondeyan De Mele" with famous punjabi singer and actor, Harbhajan Mann.

What inspired you to come into modelling?
I started off with Femina Miss India contest where they groomed me to be a well polished model and that also gave me a lot of confidence and made me realise that I have the potential to become a model.

Models are always supposed to be dieting. Doesn't severe dieting affect your health?
I am always on a well-balanced diet and I am never starving.

What's your caste Tulip?
I am a mixed blood, half gujarati and half lebanese

What are your assets, Tulip?
Sweety, brains and brawn.

Tulip how do you see yourself ten years from now?
(oh please don't say I live in the present, future is there to see)
Vikiee, 10 years as a role model for the women of the new millennium.

Which junk food do you freak out on and where?
Mcdonalds.

Tulip Joshi is hot and happening - the new Smirnoff girl. Print ads to TV commercials - she's done it all. She is an exotic product of a Gujarati father and a Lebanese mother.

Bar Refaeli (Hebrew: בר רפאלי‎)

Born on June 4, 1985
Bar Refaeli (Hebrew: בר רפאלי‎) is an Israeli model, known for her modeling work and for her relationship with American actor Leonardo DiCaprio. She is the 2009 covermodel of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.



"I started in Israel when I was 8 months old- doing commercials and small things and enjoyed it very much! When I was 12 I had braces on my teeth for three years and couldn't work. As soon as I got them off I went to a modeling agency in Israel and in one week started working."

“The photographer can tell me his vision for the shot, but it’s me in front of the camera that brings it out.”

"I like to work with different photographers - each one has different ideas and way of working and I enjoy seeing that. They are artists and I trust them. But I think it's a cooperation between the model and the photographers - the photographer can tell me his vision for the shot but it's me in front of the camera that brings "it" out"
- Bar Refaeli

Leonardo DiCaprio is famous for going after the world's most beautiful women (note: Gisele Bundchen, Eva Herzigova, Amber Valletta, and Helena Christensen), and he was all over Bar Refaeli when he first met her. He even introduced her to his family in September 2006.

Bar Refaeli's slender physique with its curvaceous nature is practically perfect, and her tantalizing gaze could make you renounce your religion. So rarely does a light-haired, pale-eyed woman look exotic, but Bar Refaeli is just that. And the best part is that there’s no artificial manipulation of this naturally exquisite beauty.

Refaeli began her modeling career before the age of 8 months for a baby commercial. By age 15, she was featured in campaigns for the fashion brands Castro and Pilpel, also starring in a commercial for Milki. Refaeli won the title "Model of The Year" in a beauty contest in 2000 and 2001. She was also chosen to be the home model of Renuar fashion network and appeared in their summer 2002 and winter 2003 catalogues.

Refaeli appeared in ELLE (France), Maxim, and GQ (Italy). She debuted in the 2007 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, becoming the first Israeli model to appear in the magazine. In the issue, she posed with rock band Aerosmith.

She has been the spokesperson for fashion brand Luisa Cerano. She has modeled for Subaru, Accessorize, Brazilian clothing line, Besni, and Italian jewelry line Marco Bicego. She is signed to Storm Model Management in London, and 1/One Management in New York City. Refaeli will be the co-host of a Bravo special program Tommy Hilfiger Presents Ironic Iconic America which will premiere in early October. The program is based on book Ironic Iconic America written by George Lois.

In 2008, Refaeli has become the face of clothing line Hurley, and the new Diddy cologne, "I Am King.

On February 9th, 2009, it was announced that Refaeli is the 2009 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover model.The photo shoot was also used for a promotion with Southwest Airlines, with an image of Refaeli in a bikini painted on the side of a Southwest Boeing 737.

Refaeli volunteers for Project Sunshine, a non-profit organization providing free services and programs for children facing life-threatening illnesses. She has also volunteered for organization Ahava, which has been caring for pets abandoned in Northern Israel during the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict.

Bar Rafaeli and film director Shahar Segal have agreed to do a gratis campaign under the slogan "One Bag Less" to reduce the use of plastic bags

Acting career
Bar Refaeli co-starred in the Israeli TV series Pick Up in 2005.

In 2009, she will star in an English-language film, Session, directed by Israeli Haim Bouzaglo. The film is a psychological thriller that tells the story of a manipulative psychiatrist, Josh Tellman, who becomes obsessed with a new young patient named "Jibbs."

bar refaeli is named no. 20 in 2008 top 99
In 2007, Bar Refaeli was also awarded "Sexiest Import" at the 2007 Spike TV Guys' Choice Awards. So it's no wonder AskMen.com readers put Bar so high up on their 2008 Top 99 list.
