    Everyone loves her - from Wiki: Maybe emperors new clothes but that stats are insane. Most front covers ever I believe...

    Moss has had campaigns with major Italian, French, American, and British designers including Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Louis Vuitton, Versace, Calvin Klein, Roberto Cavalli, Chanel, Missoni, Longchamp, David Yurman, Dior, Yves Saint-Laurent, Burberry,Stella McCartney, Rimmel,and Bvlgari, including a campaign for the successful Brazilian label ELLUS during summer 2000.

    She has been featured in fashion spreads in most major fashion magazines including UK, US, and French Vogue magazines (as well as other international versions of Vogue), Another Man, Vanity Fair, the Face, and W. Moss has appeared on the cover of British Vogue alone 26 times, in addition to dozens of other international Vogue covers, and has been featured on the cover of 17 issues of W, including one issue with nine different covers that featured the model. W even names Moss its muse (September 2003 issue). She has worked with the most well-known photographers in the fashion industry today, such as Mario Testino, Mario Sorrenti, Steven Klein, Juergen Teller, and Peter Lindbergh, and won the prestigious Vogue/CFDA award from the Fashion Designers of America in July 2005 as Fashion Inspiration.

    Twelve months after her cocaine scandal, Moss made a comeback by bagging 18 top modelling contracts for the Autumn/Winter 2006 season: Rimmel, Agent Provocateur, Virgin Mobile, Belstaff, Beymen, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Roberto Cavalli, Longchamp, Stella McCartney, Bulgari, Chanel, Nikon, David Yurman, Versace, Mia Shvili, Calvin Klein Jeans and Burberry.

    Moss also agreed to make her first foray into the design world by designing a collection, in collaboration with Katy England, for Topshop, Moss launched a fragrance and body lotion range bearing her name in association with Coty in 2007.

    According to Forbes, Moss has earned more money since her cocaine scandal than ever before: her 2004–2005 earnings were $5 million[21] and her 2005–2006 earnings were $8 million. In 2007, with estimated earnings of $9 million, she was the second highest paid model in the world, behind Gisele Bündchen.

    why would i need an icon?

    noone needs an icon.

    people need a life.

    people who do drugs ALWAYS had a troubled youth and have trouble finding a life.

    looking for things that DON'T exist:
    a world of glamour DOES NOT exist.
    it is fabricated.

    a world of happiness through being rich DOES NOT exist,
    indeed, the hedge-funders are overworked, and in their hunger to success (of which they still assume it will bring them "happines" (oh ignorants)) they'll burn themselves out, use drugs and booze to stay afloat and end up being apathic to those actually being happy with less (calling them simple or stupid) and form a "scene" of like-minded lost souls with apathy for the thing they were actually looking for in the first place...... they shot past it as people in their twenties don't believe happiness can exist in the smaller things, so they were religiously fighting for the bigger thing, the thing that only exists in a fabricated world and will lead you ultimately alone, because you never REALLY connected to someone by means of the heart and soul. Only by fabrication.

    Just saying, don't take what you are doing to serious, the only thing you should take really serious in life is how you live with people. Be kind.

    And if you can't loose your cynicism, you'll be lost forever.

    • heeeyyyy *has beef with line 4, agrees with restismith

    People who are delusional stand to be happier though maybe? even if glamour doesn't exist - it's possible to pretend, and therefore possibly transcend the mundane. I think this is why we sometimes behave like fish, foolishly swallowing the hooks that the fashion business puts out there - because although it's unlikely, we want to believe that there is a magical, exciting world available to those who are invited. Being transfixed for a short while on the unobtainable is probably okay, but I reckon people get jaded in any walk of life which relies on dreams and fabrications to function. The fashion industry is probably a good example of this.

    "she literally does fuck all in the world and parties as much as possible, which let's face it, most of use would do if we could afford it or get away with it. we call celebs superficial but we're the dumb fuckers who seem even worse. at least they're too coked up to realise their heads are up their arses. what's our excuse?"

    who says we are the dumb fuckers, airey?
    are you that fucking shortminded about yourself? do you have such little self-respect? do you really SERIOUSLY believe you only matter if you matter in the eyes of thousands of media consumers?

    i am not jealous of her lifestyle at all. it is self-absorbed, it is a world of absolute fabrication and sheer cynicism (a lot of people here on this board suffer that: ALWAYS cynical about ANYthing in life).

    There's nothing to be jealous about her life.

    IF you need to be dependent on drugs and money ALL the time you are really really sad and actually LOST the most valuable things in life such as:
    the strength to CONTROL and BEHAVE yourself
    the ability to be happy and content about smaller things in life
    not being able to appreciate the beauty and irony in reality but escapism and the influence of narcotics as the only problem

    it's sad. yet the irony is, hundreds of thousands of people actually really fall for this nonsense.

    most glamour equals absolute empty-headedness.

    • i'm not exclusing myself from the masses at times. it's called being self aware. try it, you might like it.airey
    • maybe you are enlightened beyond the rest of us, but maybe you 'aint.airey
    • What are masses? And Airey, this is not about "me".janne76
  • janne760

    i am sincerely apologising for being able to transcend "the mundane" by just walking in the forest. cycling along the beach. talking to a nice little store owner around the corner.

    sorry for being so simple. sorry for not being so fashionable.

    sorry for being fucking simple.

    • I agree with you though janne - the whole fashion business is bullshit.. but it serves a purpose quite artfullylukus_W

    I don't even know who this girl is. I've heard the name but none of the pics on the other page are familiar to me. And why is she a model anyway if she looks as fucked as Lindsay all the time?

    • i had more bits to that but qbn cut them off .. probably makes no difference anyway ;)lukus_W

    janne, with all due respect, if you were so enlightened as to be above such trivial absurdities as celebrity you wouldn't need to grandstand here. a agree with you in many points but we have always hero-worshipped and will probably always do so. presently we worship the vacuous. broadly speaking.

    yes, you are right in many ways but to seem so angry about it makes you come off like the homophobe that goes out weekend to beat up poofs, only to come out of the closet 2 years later.

    just saying, if you were so above it you wouldn't even bother with this thread as it would be simple fluff and inconsequential. just saying.

    my 2 cents, i'm probably wrong.

    and for the record, i don't shortchange (or shortminded - whatever that is) myself but what i definitely don't do is believe i'm somehow greater than the masses. i am all too aware of my own failings and mistakes to think that i'm not just as clueless at times as anyone else. it's why i love good satire as it tells the story from within the fold rather than without.

    I don't go to clubs. Airey, you really assume silly things. I am no big deal and i do not ever WANT to be or believe in a BIG deal. I am curious and sometimes provocative on here. Out of curiosity for responses. As i read the weirdest shit here.

    • what have clubs got to do with anything?airey
    • also, my reference to 'us' being dumb fuckers was to people that follow celeb news.airey
    • which isn't you obviously. therefore your assumption i meant you was incorrect.airey
    • god bless ya.airey
  • janne760

    Airey, the fact that you refer to people as being the "masses", shows how remote you consider yourself from thinking as an equal.

    Bai

    • this makes no sense to me? i guess i'm not smart enough sorry.airey
    • does not surprise me, kid.janne76

    PREDICTION:

    kate moss will accidentally kill herself at some point in the next 5-10 years. a movie will be made tracing her beginnings in modeling, big success, and falling into the party lifestyle which is great at first but ultimately kills her. it will be a cross between these two movies and if not made first by lifetime or HBO, will be picked up by a larger, more indie/art studio like focus features:

    and

    • pen it, pitch it, i know a guy you could give a screenplay treatment toversion3
