Photo Model - Angela Lindvall

Angela Lindvall was born in April 1979, in Midwest City, Oklahoma, but was raised in Lee's Summit, Missouri. She got her start early on, and made it to the big leagues after a scout discovered the 14-year-old while modeling in a Kansas City fashion show.

She immediately signed with IMG in New York, and is presently signed with IMG in Paris, and Riccardo Gay in Milan.

Angela apparently took a break from age 14 to 17, but came back to the glam world at 17, and with full force.

Angela was immediately seen in print ads for companies such as Cerruti 1881, Chanel, Gucci, Halston, Jil Sander, Missoni, Miu Miu, Prada, and Valentino.

The blue-eyed beauty was also gracing the covers of magazines such as the British i-D in 1996; Italian Elle and Vogue, and W in 1997; Dazed and Confused, Italian Marie Claire, and Australian, British and American Vogue in 1998; as well as Italian Elle and British Vogue in 1999.

When not on the covers of magazines, Angela was seen in all her splendor on the catwalks for high-fashion designers such as: BCBG, Calvin Klein, Celine, Chanel, Chloe, Christian Dior, Donna Karan, Michael Kors, John Galliano, Givenchy, Tommy Hilfiger, Helmut Lang, Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Valentino, Versus, and Yves Saint Laurent.

She has also appeared in multi-page spreads in magazines such as Elle and W.

2000 proved to be a big year for Angela, and the sought-after model was honored with a VH1/Vogue Fashion Award nomination for Model of the Year (for a second time), along with fellow favorites Gisele Bundchen (1999's winner) and "it" girl Carmen Kaas (who took home the award).

Another honor that Angela experienced in 2001 was being selected as one of the models in that year's coveted Pirelli calendar -- she, along with Gisele, Aurelie Claudel, and Rhea Durham were photographed in the nude.

Joining the ranks of Niki Taylor and Tyra Banks, the all-American beauty is now also an "Easy, Breezy, Beautiful" Cover Girl for the cosmetics company, as well as the newest face for Tommy Girl.

Word has it that she is dating actor Billy Zane, her co-star in the upcoming sci-fi movie, C.Q., in which she stars as Dragonfly.


Sexiness

Angela is the all-American sexy girl next door. At 5'11", and with the bluest eyes this side of the Pacific, there is no doubt why. Our youngest member of the voting panel, in a politically correct manner, referred to her as "a sex goddess".

Success

The ultimate testament to her work ethic? Models.com, a website that ranks models by the amount of work they do, had Angela Lindvall at their No.1 position for the first quarter of 2001. Angela is already doing advertisement work for Gucci, Chanel, Prada, Miu Miu, and was on the cover of American and Italian Vogue.
