Roger Avary, movie man and embodiment of creativity


Roger Avary. The inspired and inspiring embodiment of creativity... Some people say that he was even more attractive shaved, as it was at the 2007 Scream Awards. When Avary was arrested, he wasn't shaved either...

By far, Roger Avary (d'Avary in the past) is not a professional model. He is a director, writer producer, even an actor and cinematographer of a great many of films, from The Worm Turns (1983) through Killing Zoe (1994), Mr. Stitch (1996), The Rules of Attraction (2002) to Driver (2008) and Return to Castle Wolfenstein (In Production).

But he is the inspiring model symbolizing the sharm of multi-talent and deep creativity.

Early in his career, Avary made a number of contributions to some of Quentin Tarantino's movies, starting from working as a crew member on Tarantino's unfinished first film, My Best Friend's Birthday. Most notably, Avary contributed material which, combined with Tarantino's, formed the basis of Pulp Fiction (1994) for which he and Tarantino won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.

Avary also wrote and directed the neo-noir cult thriller Killing Zoe (1994) which Tarantino executive produced.

Avary briefly moved into work for television and made two pilots, neither of which was picked up.

In 2002 Avary returned to cinema as a director with his adaptation of the Bret Easton Ellis novel The Rules of Attraction, which he also executive produced. As of 2008, ranked as one of the top twenty-sixth highest grossing college comedy of all time. [3] The Rules of Attraction was the first studio movie to prove reliable use of Apple's Final Cut Pro editing system for editing motion picture film.[4] Roger Avary became a spokesperson for Apple's Final Cut Pro product, appearing in Apple print and web ads worldwide. His film from within the film, Glitterati (2004), used elements of Victor's European trip and was shot on digital video. In 2005, he purchased the rights to another Bret Easton Ellis novel Glamorama, and is currently developing it for himself to direct.

On January 13 (what a date!), 2008, Avary was arrested under suspicion of manslaughter and drunk driving, following a car crash in California where a passenger, Andreas Zini, was killed. The Ventura County Sheriff's department responded to the single-vehicle crash after midnight, Sunday morning on the 19-hundred block of East Ojai Avenue. Sheriff's deputies allege Avary's wife was ejected from the car, but is reportedly in stable condition. Avary was released from jail on $50,000 bail.

Millions of people feel really, really badly for him and about this whole situation and do feel the sympathy for a person whose life changed forever in a car accident.

Alessandra Ambrosio - Brazilian Model

Since being discovered following the Elite modeling agency's 1996 "Look of the Year" competition, this spicy Brazilian bombshell has been consistently gracing the Victoria?s Secret Fashion Show. Her most memorable walk down the Victoria's Secret runway was in 2005, when she sported a bra and panties made entirely out of candy. Her exotic look has also been featured in high-profile campaigns for Guess? and Revlon

Why we Like her?
Alessandra is as sexy as her name, and not featuring her would be considered a crime to her home country. Now we have two reasons to visit Brazil, including the Carnaval in Rio.

Alessandra made quite a splash in 2006, skyrocketing from her previous No. 36 spot on the list to an impressive No. 6. The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and posing for magazine covers weren't Alessandra's only major accomplishments during the past year. She also dabbled briefly in the world of acting, making her movie debut with a seductive cameo appearance in Casino Royale.

Why she is Famous?
Alessandra was in dozens of fashion campaigns, like the latest one for Guess? She also recently appeared in the Cannes Victoria's Secret webcast.

Along with a guaranteed spot donning lingerie in the next Victoria?s Secret Fashion Show, Alessandra Ambrosio will continue to grace the covers of some of the industry's best-known fashion magazines; to the relief of publishers and men all over the world.

"Modeling is a tough job, your co-workers are your rivals, it really puts a damper on your perspective of other girls."
-Adriana Lima

Adriana Lima - Photo Gallery

Date of Birth: June 12, 1981
Birthplace: Salvador da Bahia, Brazil

What makes her so Famous?
Not only is Adriana Lima considered one of Victoria's Secret's "Perfect 10" models, but as a spokesperson for Armani Jeans, we're not sure whether we'd rather see her in lingerie or jeans... tough call, ain't it?

Why we adore her..., as we do?
As a spokeswoman for Victoria's Secret, Guess?, Armani, and XOXO, she has become one of the most in-demand runway models in the world. When she's not making men worldwide drool, she's helping Brazilian orphans in her native land and dabbling in acting.

Biography
Adriana Francesca Lima was born on June 12, 1981, in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil. The blue/gray-eyed Brazilian beauty can attribute her exotic good looks to her French, Portuguese, Native-American, and Caribbean heritage.

Her climb from obscurity to glam girl occurred after placing second in the Ford Supermodel of the World Contest at the age of 13. Three years later, she headed to one of the fashion centers of the world, New York, and signed with Elite Model Management. Once there, her modeling portfolio began to expand exponentially, after appearing in Vogue (Italy) in 1997, as well as Vogue (UK), I-D (UK), Marie Claire (Brazil), and Vogue (Italy) in 1998. Adriana also appeared in Vogue (U.S., Germany, UK) and Marie Claire (Italy) in 1999.

As for fashion shows, the Vogue girl has walked down the runway for the following designers: Cynthia Rowley, Vera Wang, Christian Lacroix, Emanuel Ungaro, Betsey Johnson, Girls Rule, Richard Tyler, Giorgio Armani, Fendi, Randolph Duke, Ralph Lauren, and Valentino, just to name a few.

But one of Adriana's most notable catwalk appearances was in the Victoria's Secret summer 2000 swimwear catalog (shot in Cannes), where the Brazilian beauty shared the spotlight with a bevy of supermodels such as Heidi Klum and Laetitia Casta.
