Selita Ebanks is
something of a rarity: a supermodel born not in Brazil or Germany
but in the Cayman Islands. Ebanks grew up on Walker's Road in the
capital city of George Town. She began modeling at age 17 and has
since appeared in fashion magazines from Glamour and Marie Claire to
Vogue and Nylon. She has also appeared in advertising campaigns for
Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Levis Jeans. In 2005 her career
took another step upwards when she was chosen to appear alongside
established models like Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks in the annual
Victoria's Secret Fashion Show television special. Tyra Banks, who was retiring from modeling, symbolically passed her Victoria's Secret wings to Ebanks on a November 2005 edition of The Tyra Banks Show... According to a 2005 CBS press release for the Victoria's Secret TV special, Ebanks "was discovered at the age of 17 at New Jersey's Six Flags Great Adventure by Women Model Management" and is "of Caymanian, Jamaican, Irish, Indian, and African heritage." Ebanks appears with Karolina Kurkova and Adriana Lima in the loop The Models of Victoria's Secret. |
