Modeling Career

Kelly Brook began her modeling career at the age of 16 after her mother entered her into a beauty competition, which she won. This early success led to work in various advertising campaigns for brands including Bravissimo, Piz Buin, Walkers crisps, Renault Mégane, and Foster’s Lager. Bravissimo, in particular, is known for specializing in lingerie and bras for large-breasted women.

Her modeling career took off after the Daily Star featured her as a Page Three girl. She quickly became a favorite in men's lifestyle magazines such as FHM, Loaded, and GQ. In 2005, she topped FHM's list of the "100 Sexiest Women in the World," reportedly based on votes from over 15 million readers. She appeared on the list for four consecutive years, further solidifying her status as a leading model.

Additionally, Brook signed a £1 million contract with Unilever to appear in advertising campaigns for Lynx body spray, marketed as Axe in European and U.S. markets. She featured prominently in both billboard and print ads during this internationally recognized campaign.
