Big wool cotton pants, that just doesn't work. You have to feel sexy." -Heidi Klum, on her work with Victoria's Secret bio Heidi Klum was born June 1st, 1973, in Bergische Gladbach, a small city in Cologne, Germany. 18 years old and still in high school, Heidi came across an ad for a model competition in her area while reading a magazine.

JANET JACKSON

Image
Woops, silly me, I totally forgot to post a sniplet of her bio so you have a little background or for those that really care... Janet Damita Jo Jackson was born on May 16, 1966 in Gary, Indiana. She's the youngest of 9 children born to Joe and Katherine Jackson. Growing up in the Jackson family, Janet was aware of the lures of performance early on. Since the Jackson 5 were already stars by the time Janet was a teenager, it may never have occurred to her that it was possible to fail in show business. As she grew older, her interests branched out into several directions -- dancing, acting and singing. If you're into finding out more about Janet & seeing some naughty pics of celebs I found this link out there (if you're into that stuff - be warned it's a nude celeb site but apparently someone told me they have some more bio info and pics inside) If you are offended by this link and I get enough requests I'll remove it. I do not condone or endorse it, but thought ...

GINA LEE NOLIN

Image
A celeb blog wouldn't be right without initially posting some background info, so here goes: Gena Lee Nolin was born November 29, 1971 in the intellectual capital of the Midwest, Duluth, Minnesota. When she was a senior in high school her family moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, where not too long after, Gena Lee entered a beauty pageant and earned herself the title of "Ms. Las Vegas." From there, she had the honor of winning the Look of the Year award from bigwig agents, the Elite and Ford modeling agencies, as well as the "Miss Barbizon USA" title. Keep in mind that all this success had come before she was allowed to watch an R-rated film. After Gena made all the male teachers at her school very sad by graduating, she went on to Los Angeles to pursue a job in acting and study interior design at Santa Monica College. In 1993, she made us angry by marrying a man named Greg Falman, whom she met while handing brochures out at a convention. One year later, in 1994, Miss ...

ASHLEY JUDD

Image
The obligatory BIO info: Although Ashley Judd is the daughter of Naomi Judd and half-sister of Wynonna -- the mother and daughter group that make up the country duet the Judds -- it's apparent that Ashley has managed to make a successful name for herself with acting. With a blockbuster and big Hollywood roles under her belt, the acting Judd is only at the beginning of what can be a huge movie career. Things weren't always so peachy for the youngest Judd, living in several rundown Kentucky homes with her dirt-poor family. Even without the comforts of what can be considered the bare necessities, such as running water, electricity, or a telephone, the Judd girls still found ways to keep themselves entertained. While Wynonna and her mother sang on the front porch, Ashley would immerse herself in books, acting out the different characters in the stories. Ashley attended 12 schools in 13 years, until her sister and mother made it big in the country music industry. When Judd graduated...
