CarMELita Posted November 9, 2006 Posted November 9, 2006 Esther Ca�adas Bio taken from wikipedia! Birth location: Alicante, Costa Blanca, Spain Measurements: 34-23-35 Height: 5' 10" (1.78 m) Eye color: Blue Hair color: Dark Blond Ethnicity: Spanish Esther Ca�adas (born on March 1, 1977 in Alicante, Costa Blanca) is a Spanish actress and supermodel. Biography Originally, Ca�adas wanted to pursue a career as a criminologist, but after much convincing by her mother, she tried modeling out while she was still in school. Ca�adas signed her first contract with the Take 2 Agency after winning a local competition for a teen magazine. She represented her country in a model search and was sent to South Africa. She then moved to Barcelona on her own to begin working. When she started modeling, she felt that it was nothing more than a job and something new to try, but she eventually realized that it was what she really wanted to do. Ca�adas moved to New York in 1996, where it took only two days for her to get booked by twenty designers. She has since appeared in campaigns for: Atelier Versace, J. Crew, Mossimo, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Victoria's Secret. She is probably most known, however, for her appearances in DKNY ads. She has graced the cover of ELLE Spain, Mademoiselle, Marie Claire Italy, Mondo Uomo, as well as Vogue Spain -- all in 1997. Ca�adas has walked down the catwalk at many designer fashion shows, including: Calvin Klein, D&G, DKNY, Oscar de la Renta, Richard Tyler, Todd Oldham, Giorgio Armani, Valentino, Versace, and Givenchy. Ca�adas does not diet or exercise regularly, giving her a "natural beauty" image. According to her, modeling has given her the opportunity to travel around the world, although the life of a model can get lonely from frequently moving from place to place. She refers to this loneliness by explaining that "the often solitary lifestyle demands an inner strength." Ca�adas made her feature film debut with an appearance in 1999 action/romance The Thomas Crown Affair, starring Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo; and is also active in charity work. Personal life Ca�adas met her ex-husband Mark Vanderloo on the set of a Donna Karan advertising shoot in 1997. They married in 1999, but divorced in November 2000. Currently, she is dating MotoGP rider Sete Gibernau. In January 2004 she adopted a daughter. Filmography * Trileros (2003) .... Lola * Torrente 2: Misi�n en Marbella (2001) ....
