Kate Moss was born January 16, 1974 in London, England. She appeared in her first cover shot a year after she was discovered at age 14. Featured in Calvin Klein's Obsession ad campaign in 1993, she became even more famous and sought-after. During her career, she has appeared on the cover of more than 300 magazines. She also starred in advertising campaigns for many of the top fashion houses.
She has featured in fashion spreads in most major international fashion magazines, including Vogue (UK, French and US), The Face, Vanity Fair, W and Another Man, and she has graced the covers of these issues many times over. Moss has also worked with the fashion industry's top photographers, including Mario Testino, Steven Klein, Juergen Teller and Mario Sorrenti.
In April 2005 make-up house Rimmel launched their new mascara, using Moss as the first face of Rimmel cosmetics. In the advert, she is clad in leather and rides a motorbike through London. In July 2005, Moss won the Fashion Designers of America Vogue/CFDA award.
In 2005, Kate was photographed snorting several lines of cocaine at a Babyshambles recording session. The photos were published on the front cover of The Daily Mirror. The scandal that ensued caused Kate to lose a number of lucrative modeling contracts. In the 1990s, Kate had previously successfully sued the Sunday Mirror for claiming that Moss had slipped into a coma after taking too much cocaine in Spain.
