English fashion designer, Dame Vivienne Westwood once said "I dont believe in God, but when I see Laetitia I'm tempted to change my mind." For about 3 years there in the late 90s, she was the undisputed hottest chick on the face of the earth, possibly in the history of man.

Life Story

Born in Pont-Audemer, France, she spent her childhood in the lush countryside of Normandy. She was building sand castles on the beach in Corsica when she was approached by an agent about becoming a model. She was 15 years old at the time, but she would soon be the Guess? girl.

Laetitia has a brown belt in Judo. She feels that her experience with Judo has helped her in her modeling career to have control, to set limits for herself, to not be aggressive and to think with her mind not with her emotions.

Career

She has graced more than 100 magazine covers, been featured in Victoria's Secret and Rolling Stone and was in three consecutive Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. She was the official face of L'Oréal, Dior, and Chanel and has been the centerpiece of more than a dozen ad campaigns. Along with Tyra Banks, she is credited with bringing voluptuous models back during a time when the Kate Moss "waif" look was in.Although still primarily a model, she made the switch to acting when she debuted in the French film Astérix et Obélix contre César, also known by its English title, Astérix and Obélix vs. César. After that she starred in the French mini series Bicyclette bleue, La, commonly referred to by its English title Movie With Laetitia Casta's Titties. This was followed by the Spanish film Gitano, known in America as Laetitia Casta Gets Butt Naked. And like Helena Christensen before her, she starred in a sexy music video for Chris Isaak.

Symbol of France

She is the "Marianne", the allegorical symbol of the French Republic. As a result her bust is prominently displayed in many French towns.
