COUNTRY: Russian model DATE OF BIRTH: February 28, 1982 PLACE OF BIRTH: Gorky, Russia EYES: Blue HAIR: Dark blonde CHEST: 88 cm WAIST: 62 cm HIPS: 89 cm HEIGHT: 175 cm Natalia Vodianova Biography Bio: Natalia Vodianova is a Russian model. Since bursting into the spotlight in 2001, She has campaigned for Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, Euphoria, Gucci and Miss Sixty. Her Cinderella story of going from poverty into modeling glamour has also created great buzz about her. Natalia Vodianova was born on February 28, 1982, in Gorky, Russia. She lived with her mother and two half-sisters under meager and tough conditions. The poor lifestyle was a result of Soviet Union's road to collapse and its aftermath. The political and economic conditions took a harsh toll on Natalia's family, as she had to start working at the age of eleven. Natalia and her family sustained eachother with a fruit stall business. At age 15, Vodianova enrolled in a modeling academy, where she learned ladylike behavior and etiquette. Fortunately, she also went to casting opportunities, and one day, she caught the eye of a scouting agent from Paris. He told her that a great future was in store for her; all she had to do was learn English in three months. Convinced that her life could change for the better, Vodianova did just that. At 17, she moved to Paris to try her hand at modeling. Delighted to work, she was a dream client for the Viva agency and was an inspired woman. Though her salary was small at her first, it was still much more than what she was earning in her native Russia. When she was 19 years old, she made much headway in modeling but still had not made it big. For some time, she was distracted however, after falling in love and marrying British real-estate heir Justin Portman. She gave birth to son Lucas before the lavish wedding in St. Petersburg, and for an instant, her career looked bleak. Fortunately, these distractions did not sway her: she roamed the runways for several fall collections and astounded so many that she headlined the Yves Saint Laurent show that same year. Soon, Vodianova's phone was ringing off the hook. Gucci made her the new face for their perfume line after she had more than 40 runway shows under her belt, and then Calvin Klein called to hire her for their big Spring show. She was officially the hot new face in town and even made a brief appearance in Roman Coppola's film CQ with Billy Zane and Gerard Depardieu. Now, with campaigns for Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs and Miss Sixty to her name, Vodianova is a true supermodel. She has done it all, from Vogue covers to big-name fashion shows. The media loves her not only for her "real" look, but because her story is so inspiring. Living in New York with her husband and son, Vodianova is already poised to take over the whole modeling world with her charm and sex appeal. In July 2007, Vodianova was featured the cover of American Vogue as the solo subject, a considerable feat during an era that relies heavily on celebrity cover subjects to push sales. She first appeared on the cover along with eight other top models in September 2005. The only other models to have singularly graced the cover of US Vogue in between those two issues have been Linda Evangelista and Liya Kebede. According to Forbes, Vodianova is ranked as the seventh highest-earning model in the world after Carolyn Murphy, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Heidi Klum, Kate Moss and Gisele Bundchen. Her earnings for the past year were in the order of $4.5 million.

Pravoga imena Natalia Mikhailovna Vodianova, rođena je prije trideset godina u Donjem Novom Gradu, mjestu koje je prije nosilo ime Gorki, po sovjetskom pjesniku Maksimu Gorkom. Vodianova je odrastala u siromašnoj obitelji s majkom i dvije polusestre. Natalijin otac je obitelj napustio još dok je bila dijete te s njime uopće nije bila u kontaktu sve dok nije postala slavna. Obitelj se na sve načine pokušavala snaći i preživjeti, tako su novac zarađivali prodajući voće na tržnici. U dobi od samo 15 godina Natalia se upisala u manekensku agenciju, a dvije godine kasnije preselila se u Pariz potpisavši ugovor s agencijom Viva Models, a danas živi u Velikoj Britaniji. Visoka čak 176 centimetara te gotovo savršenih mjera, punih usana, smeđe kose i prodornih plavih očiju, Vodianova je vrlo brzo osvojila modni svijet. Ostvarila je zavidan uspjeh kako na modnim pistama, tako i snimajući editorijale, reklame i razne kampanje. Do danas Vodianova se pokazala na čak 175 različitih kako europskih, tako i američkih modnih pista, njezini editorijali krasili su najprestižnije časopise diljem svijeta, a snimila je i reklamne kampanje za poznata modna imena kao što su Guerlain, Givenchy, Calvin Klein, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, L'Oréal, David Yurman, Marc Jacobs, Stella McCartney, Versace, Diane von Fürstenberg, Chanel, Guerlain i Etam. Do sada se pojavila na čak sedam naslovnica britanskog Voguea, a na coveru američkog izdanja debitirala je 2004. godine pozirajući pred fotoobjektivom Stevena Meisela. No, Nataliju Vodianovu još jedan magazin jednostavno obožava, a to je Harper's Bazaar. Teško je pobrojati koliko se puta pojavila na naslovnici tog modnog magazina. Sa samo 19 godina udala se za britanskog plemića Justina Portmana te rodila troje djece, sinove Lucasa Alexandera i Viktora te kćer Nevu. No, to je nije nimalo omelo u tome da i dalje radi, napredujući vrtoglavom brzinom u manekenskom svijetu. Godine 2005. na ljestvici World's Greatest Supermodel britanske televizijske postaje Five Natalia je zauzela 14. mjesto. Kako je njezina karijera napredovala, tako se i Natalijin bankovni račun podebljavao. Prema podacima časopisa Forbes, u razdoblju od 2006. do 2007. godine Vodianova je zaradila 4,5 milijuna dolara, godinu kasnije godišnja zarada joj se povećala za puni milijun, a ove godine je zasjela na čak treće mjesto Forbesove liste najbolje plaćenih manekenki sa zarađenih 8,6 milijuna dolara u samo jednoj godini. Osim manekenskim vodama, Vodianova se odlično snašla i u onim filmskim. Tako je 2001. godine dobila manju ulogu u filmu Romana Coppole 'CQ' gdje je stala uz bok Billyju Zaneu. Godine 2010. utjelovila je Meduzu u filmu Clash of the Titans. Krajem iste godine Natalia je dobila i prvu glavnu ulogu u adaptaciji romana 'Belle du Seigneur', a film bi trebao biti gotovo ove godine. Osim toga, Vodianovoj je pružena i posebna čast da na Zimskim olimpijskim igrama 2014. godine bude zaštitno lice i ambasadorica. Vodianova je vrlo aktivna i na području humanitarnog rada te slovi za veliku filantropkinju, a osnovala je i humanitarnu udrugu Naked Heart Foundation. Svojega sada već bivšeg supruga, britanskog plemića Justina Portmana upoznala je kada joj je bilo samo 19. godina, i to 2001. godine na jednoj večeri u pariškom restoranu. Kada je bila osam mjeseci trudna, Natalia i Justin su se vjenčali, a devet mjeseci kasnije ceremoniju su ponovili u Sankt Peterburgu, gdje je Vodianova odjenula predivnu vjenčanicu s potpisom dizajnera Toma Forda. Par ima troje djece, ali bračna sreća nije potrajala zauvijek, pa su 2010. godine započeli živjeti odvojeno, a sredinom 2011. su se i zakonski razveli. No, vrlo brzo ruska se ljepotica ponovno zaljubila. I to ni manje ni više nego u Antoinea Arnaulta, sina francuskog biznismena i vlasnika LVMH Bernarda Arnaulta, a sumnja se kako je upravo Antoine tajanstveni muškarac zbog kojega je ostavila supruga.
