Biography

Laetitia Casta, a stunning French model, was born in Pont-Audemer, France, and spent her childhood in the picturesque countryside of Normandy. At the tender age of 15, she was discovered by an agent from Paris' Madison Models while building sand castles on the sun-kissed beaches of Corsica. After her father gave his consent, the agency took some test photographs, and Laetitia's breathtaking natural beauty left a lasting impression on the founder of Madison models as well as the director of the renowned French magazine Elle.

This serendipitous encounter led to modeling contracts, and in 1993, Laetitia signed on with Guess? Jeans for a highly successful advertising campaign. Her exceptional talent and captivating presence soon made her one of the lead models for Victoria's Secret in 1996, and she went on to feature in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition for three consecutive years. Laetitia's impressive portfolio boasts over 100 covers of prominent fashion magazines such as Cosmopolitan and Glamour, as well as numerous commercials for the esteemed cosmetics company L'Oreal.

Laetitia expanded her creative horizons by making her feature film debut in Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar (1999),the most expensive French film ever made, which received widespread acclaim in Europe. Her acting career gained momentum when she starred in the TV movie The Blue Bicycle (2000),set against the backdrop of WWII France.

In her free time, Laetitia enjoys a variety of hobbies, including painting, writing, rollerblading, going to the cinema, and dancing. She currently resides in a flat in London, where she can be found pursuing her passions and enjoying the city's vibrant cultural scene.
