JAIME KING
Isn’t it awesome to hear that Jaime King was already a professional model when she was just 14 years old? She was scouted at a Nebraska fashion show and invited to do some modeling work in New York. This was how she started to travel back and forth. By the time she was 16 years old, she had already appeared worked with magazines like Allure, Vogue, Seventeen, and Harper’s Bazaar. She has tried her luck in acting as well. Her first job was to co-host House of Style for MTV. When it comes to films, she worked on Pearl Harbor, Sin City, The Spirit, Pearl Harbor, and Happy Campres. You probably saw her in The O.C. and The Class as well. After a little while in the industry, she could now afford to be picky with the projects that she works on.
TYRA BANKS
Even though Tyra Banks first made a name for herself as a model, she now rakes in more from her successful TV career. She was a high school student when she kicked off her modeling career. When she was 16 years old, she signed with Elite Model Management and then relocate to Milan. In 1991, she walked the runway at Paris Fashion Week and booked 25 shows in her first season.

The first time that she appeared on the small screen was for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, while she made her debut in film in Higher Learning. She was also in Coyote Ugly and Love Stinks.
