Did you know male supermodel Tyson Beckford was considered to play Angela Bassett's "kept" young man in the movie "How Stella Got Her Groove Back"? The movie was which is based on the author Terry McMillan's real life story on how she found love in Jamaica with a man 20 years her junior. Many say that this role launched the career of the actor Taye Diggs, who played Bassett's sexy Jamaican love interest. Although Tyson has appeared in several movies, he hasn't received a role that would elevate him to the leading man category. That could be because of the stereotype that goes along with modeling -- which is: Models can't do anything but look pretty. But... if Tyson would have landed the role, he might have been able to crush that myth.
Sorry Tyson!

Boobermodels?
E television and VH1 have both named Gisele Bunchen the hottest supermodel. Gisele beat out some of the biggest names in the fashion industry like Naomi Campbell, Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Adriana lima, Claudia Schiffer, Helena Christensen, and many other well known supermodels. Gisele is also the highest paid supermodel to date. E was quoted as saying that Gisele is so hot that she should not be referred to as a supermodel but at a Boobermodel.
Is Gisele the new Cindy? And will there be any newcomers that receive the same amount of exposure and money that Gisele is getting? Will there be a brand new group of models to bring back the "supermodel" age? And if so, we will start calling them "boobermodels" instead of the term we usually call them which is ... Supermodel?!
Who knows!
Only time will tell! I guess we will all have to stay tuned and see!
