Caroline Murphy is one of the female highest paid models in the world. In her childhood the girl had no plans of becoming a model. It was her mother who convinced her to try her hand in modeling. The girl has a perfect resume. She worked for Calvin Klein and appeared on the covers of numerous magazines. Nevertheless, it was Estee Lauder Company where she spent the most time of her career with.
Caroline Murphy is one of the female highest paid models. She was born on August 11, 1975 in Florida. As all female highest paid models, the girl was not going to become a model when she was a child. But her mother insisted on starting a career of a model. The girl gained recognition rather soon. She attended different modeling conventions and was taken to various model jobs. Once she was spotted by an agent. Soon she was already modeling in New York and Paris.
For some years the girl lived and worked in New York. Her career was flying high. The girl was occupied not only with fashion shows, but she also posed for a number of magazines, such as Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Marie Claire and Vogue. That is why don't be surprised if you see this one of the female highest paid models on the cover of a magazine.
The girl has already had an experience of representing and being the face of a certain brand. She acted in Calvin Klein's perfume commercials, as well as in the ad campaign of his "Contradiction" fragrance. In September 2001 the girl was announced as the spokesperson of Estee Lauder. Elizabeth Hurley was the spokesperson of the company for many years, so the glamorous appeals of these two beauties complemented each other. When the girl started her career in the company she signed a billion-dollar worldwide campaign and also took part in the ads for its skin care and make-up lines and spa.
Nevertheless it was not Estee Lauder who gave her the status of a supermodel. She got it when she was named "Model of the Year" in 1998. She was also one of the female highest paid models who appeared on the cover of Vogue's issue called "Models of the Millennium".
In 1999 Caroline exercised a transition from modeling to acting career. That year she appeared in the film of Barry Levinson called Liberty Heights. The director of the film was looking for an actress who would have the appearance of Grace Kelly. The agent of the girl advised her to visit the audition. So she did. Unlike many other actresses who were not accepted, the girl was even praised for her work.
Caroline has a daughter whose name is Dylan Blue. The girl was born in December 2000. Caroline gained weight while being pregnant. Nevertheless she managed to become slim again after the childbirth without the help of a professional. In 2005 the girl again appeared on the cover of the magazine called Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.
Caroline was married to Jake Schroeder, surfing entrepreneur. Now she dates Brandon Boyd, who is the singer in the rock band called Incubus. Hurley was the face of Estee Lauder company for rather along time. But after some controversies caused by the woman the company started looking for a replacement. After considering Linda Evangelista and Gwyneth Paltrow, the company signed a contract with Caroline. As for Hurley, she stayed in the company but in a diminished position.
It was a great return after a year when Caroline had to stay on the fashion sidelines because of her pregnancy.
It is necessary to note such a peculiarity of the girl as the chameleon-like ability to change the look of her hair from red, brown or blonde to short or long. Sometimes she was even accused of trying to look not chic but androgynous. Nevertheless, it did not prevent her from finding herself in the top echelons of modeling. In 1998 she was called "Model of the Year" by Vogue Fashion Awards.
