Biography
Cynthia Ann Crawford (born February 20, 1966) is an American supermodel and actress. Born in DeKalb, Illinois, she is well-known as the supermodel with a visible mole on her face (although most people refer to it as a “beauty mark” in her case). Crawford has deviated from the strict matrix of perfection and distance from the audience common to celebrities. She has attempted to display a sense of humor when modeling and acting. A series of exercise videos that she made were a runaway hit, although her acting pursuits have not been nearly as successful. She continues to provide celebrity endorsement for a variety of projects.
Crawford is just over 5 feet 9 inches tall and has a very thin figure. She was the first modern supermodel to pose for Playboy. She is ranked number 5 on Playboy's list of the 100 Sexiest Stars of the 20th century. She has featured on the cover of more than 600 magazines worldwide including Vogue, W, People, Harper's Bazaar, ELLE and Allure. A 1997 Shape magazine survey of 4,000 picked her as the second (after Demi Moore) most beautiful woman in the world.
From 1989 to 1995, Crawford was host of MTV's House of Style |
