Adriana Francesca Lima (born June 12, 1981 in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil) is a Brazilian supermodel, best known for her work with Victoria's Secret.
Adriana Lima, commonly known as "the best face in the industry" and "the
most in demand runway model in the world", rose to stardom out of less than
glamorous conditions. Lima was discovered while shopping at a local mall at the
age of 13. At the age of 15, she finished in first place in a Ford Supermodel of
Brazil model search. Lima later followed with a second place finish in the 1996
Ford Supermodel of the World contest.
Shortly after, Lima moved to New
York City, and eventually moved on from Ford, signing with Elite Model
Management. Her early career consisted mostly of fashion editorial work (with
early appearances in international editions of Vogue and Marie Claire
in 1997/1998), as well as runway work (Christian Lacroix, Valentino, and
others). Lima's first big break came when she was featured in a Vassarette
billboard in Times Square. Her print career followed, and like many other famous
names (Claudia Schiffer, Laetitia Casta, Eva Herzigova), Lima became a GUESS?
Girl in their 2000 Costanoa and has face campaign.
Adriana Lima continued
to build upon her entry, doing more print work (Maybelline, bebe, Mossimo, BCBG)
and gracing the cover and editorials of more high fashion magazines (Harper's
Bazaar, ELLE). Probably best known for her Victoria's Secret work and Angel
status (along with Heidi Klum and Gisele Bündchen), Lima first graced the VS
runway in 2000, and was the show opener for the 2003 Victoria's Secret Fashion
Show.
In 2001 Adriana Lima starred in BMW Films short, The Follow
alongside actors Mickey Rourke, Clive Owen, and Forest Whitaker. In the film,
Owen's character is hired to follow Lima's, who is suspected of cheating on her
famous husband, played by Rourke. The film had a runtime of 8:47 including
credits, was written by Andrew Kevin Walker, and directed by Wong Kar-Wai. Even
though her performance received rave reviews and she was offered other big parts
for movies such as Kill Bill, Terminator III, and The Matrix
Revolutions Lima made it clear that acting is not her priority and that she
only did The Follow because it was a short film.

Adriana Lima is
currently one of the most respected and in demand models in the business and is
the third highest paid model in the world (behind Gisele Bundchen and Kate
Moss). She is currently represented by New York's DNA Models, Brazil's Elite
Models and the European Ford Models.
