She is the new
spokesperson for Cover Girl, and is a regular
in the most recent Victoria's Secret catalogues
and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
Yamila Diaz Rahi is already heading for the
prime of her life -- and she's only 24! The
young Argentinean supermodel has gone from an
unknown frolicking on an Uruguayan beach in
1996 (where she was discovered, we're sure for
her proficient sand castle building abilities)
to one of Victoria's Secret's anchor models
and a regular in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit
Issue for 1999 and 2000.
Yamila Diaz Rahi was born in Argentina, to a
doctor father and an old folks home manager
mother. Of Lebanese and Spanish descent, Yamila
and her two sisters, Maria and Yael, were raised
in Argentina.
With no original intention to become a model,
everything changed for Yamila when she was spotted
by a modeling agency scout in Buenos Aires,
where Yamila was an Economics student. After
this chance encounter, she flew to Milan where
her career as a model began.
It took a while for the exotic beauty to break
through, and she started off by doing department
store catalogues for several years. But it was
after her work in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit
Calendar in 1999 that Yamila skyrocketed to
model status.
She may not be strutting down the runways for
big name designers just yet, but Yamila has
just been cast in an important movie role, to
appear in an Italian feature film entitled Il
pesce innamorato ("Love of the Fishes"),
along with Italian actor Leonardo Pieraccioni.
Since it was luck that got her to where she
is, Yamila has never allowed herself to develop
the diva attitude many models are known for,
despite the glamorous life she now leads. With
the short life span of models, she recognizes
that her looks are not enough of an attribute.
This is why the South American beauty broadens
her achievements by developing her language
skills -- learning Italian and English -- and
delving into literature, most notably Brazilian
writers.
Yamila currently resides in Manhattan, with
her boyfriend, Italian artist, Giuliano. |

fortune Forbes estimates at $4 billion. |
