Niki
Taylor:
Niki
was one of the world top supermodels in the 90's. A time
when all that graced the covers of fashion magazines were
supermodels and not celebrities. She hit the scene when
supermodels were at the peak of stardom. When names like
Cindy , Claudia, Eva , Niomi, Turlington , and Evagelista
were larger names that big screen actresses. Niki entered
the modeling world as one of the original supermodels.
Niki was the world youngest model
to ever land on the cover of Vogue, she also landed on
the cover of Seventeen magazine at the young age of just
14. She was just freshman in highschool when her modeling
career took off.
Niki also made huge waves in the modeling industry when
at the age of 17 she singed a muliti million dollar contract
as the new face of covergirl cosmetics. Her career was
sky rocketing faster than fashion comes and goes out of
season. She was every where in the fashion industry, runways,
commercials, TV shows, MTV house of style , and appearing
on the J Leno show all still while in her early teens.
While still in her first few years of modeling Niki was
on the cover of over 200 magazines while still not even
old enough to graduate from highschool. The year Niki
turned 21 she broke even more records in the fashion industry
when in a single month she was on six magazine covers
at once. Allure magazine claims that in the six magazine
cover month, that issue in 1997 has still to this date
been their best-selling issue ever.
Niki's didn't always have big dreams
of becoming a supermodel. She was inspiring to be a marine
biologist, growing up in Florida she has a love for the
ocean and even has a small dolphin tattoo on her ankle
to prove it.
Her modeling career got it start when her mother sent
photos of the then 13-year old beauty to a Florida modeling
agency. It was soon after that when catalogues and magazines
were wanting to work with Niki while still just thirteen.
However, things were not all happy
times and glamorous in Niki's life, she has gone through
two terrible tragedies in her life. Niki's younger sister
Krissy, was following in Niki's foot steps as supermodel.
Krissy started working the run ways and appearing in fashion
magazines just like her older sister, and the both of
them were very close, best of freinds. However, in 1995
Niki found her younger sister passed away in the living
room from asthma complications. The second tragedies came
on April 29 2001 when Niki was in a near-fetal car accident
She was unconscious in a hospital for a month and a half
and in critical condition for a very long time. When Niki
finally woke she thought she was only unconscious for
about four to five days. The modeling industry, fashion
industry, and fans all came together to pray and be by
her side for hope and recovery.
Well now Niki is back, after time, therapy, and healing.
She has permanent numbness on her arm and on one side
of her leg, so she can't stay on her feet for very long.
However, in 2003 Niki is once again starting to appear
on the fashion scene as she has already been on many magazine
covers this year. She says, "All I can do is wake up every
morning and thank God for giving me that day and go on
with my day ."
Niki has always been know in the
modeling industry as one of the nicest, sweetest and down-to-earth
girls around. Unlike other models Niki would rather wear
t-shirt and a pair of jeans than high fashion designer
clothes. She likes to cook and would prefer a home-cooked
meal to a fancy restaurant. Niki spends her free time
with her twin sons, jet skiing, scuba diving, swimming,
and exercising.
She has been named as People magazine's 50 Most Beautiful
People in the World, been on covers of hundred magazines,
is a Sports
Illustrated swimsuit model, a Victoria's
Secret model, modeled for all the worlds top
designers, a Cover Girl cover girl, and a divorced mother
of twins boys. At her very young age Niki has been through
it all, and still shines as a wonderful sweet and caring
person. She has many more good things to come and not
only is she supermodel she is a super-role-model to many
young girls and aspiring models.
