Early life
Ambrosio was born in Erechim, Brazil on April 11, 1981. Her parents, who are of Italian and Polish descent, own a petrol station. Ambrósio was just eight years old when she decided that she wanted to be a model, after seeing a picture of top covergirl Karen Mulder in a magazine: "I wanted to be like her", she recalls. She enrolled at a modelling class at the age of 12 and at the age of 14 she was one of 20 finalists for an elite modelling competition in Brazil. Ambrosio was always insecure about her large ears and at eleven had cosmetic surgery to get her ears pinned back, though two years later she suffered complications. In 2006 she appeared on The Tyra Banks Show, and said that the surgery was a bad experience and has discouraged her from ever getting plastic surgery again.

Dylana Suarez beautiful pics

dylana of Nana in Wonderland is made of beautiful smile, intricate poses, awesome personality and techni-colored dreams. I am proud to have this interview with her last February! It's been a long time since I've done this feature and I'm happy to have this back again with the inspiration of the lovely bloggers around such as Dylana and many more. (Favorite Style Icon has been previously called as Favorite Chictopian.)
Creative passion. I love fashion because it allows anyone to be creative and just have fun. I love art and color, and fashion allows me to incorporate this love into my everyday life.
Fashion Influences. I have so many fashion inspirations! But I am very inspired by nature and the world around me. I love looking at street style pictures the best and seeing how the everyday person gets dressed in a way that is more individualistic. I am also very inspired by all kinds of movies, old and new. I love the simplicity and classic look of Audrey Hepburn, and also the kitschy look of 80's icon Molly Ringwald. Also, actress Kirsten Dunst has always influenced my style.
Everyone might have known Dylana as a style icon from Chictopia and being featured from fashion websites such as Elle and many others but other than being an awesome, stylish person, she is one great person who dreams and loves spending time with her family.
1. What’s the best day for you? I love Sundays because they allow me to relax, catch up on things I love, and spend a day out with friends and family.
2. Best thing by your bed? My dream catcher, of course.
3. Best book youve read? Sister Carrie by Theodore Dreiser.
4. Best place in your house? My parent's room, by their big windows. It is always warm, bright, and perfectly serene.
5. Favorite food? Indian curry.
6. Best gadget you own? My laptop because I love to blog! Also, my Ipod because I cannot live without music.
7. Best recent purchase? I haven't made too many recent purchases, but I love my new little black laced dress that I got about a month ago on sale. It is so chic and has a cool zipper down the back. I haven't worn it yet, but I am so excited to!
8. What’s your guilty pleasure? I am not sure. But I think that I read way too much. Maybe that is my guilty pleasure.
9. Best vacation spot? Southeast Asia!

She began performing in the rock music scene of New York City's Lower East Side in 2003 and enrolled at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. She soon signed with Streamline Records, an imprint of Interscope Records. During her early time at Interscope, she worked as a songwriter for fellow label artists and captured the attention of Akon, who recognized her vocal abilities, and signed her to his own label, Kon Live Distribution.
Gaga came to prominence following the release of her debut studio album The Fame (2008), which was a commercial success and achieved international popularity with the singles "Just Dance" and "Poker Face". The album reached number one on the record charts of six countries, accomplished positions within the top-ten worldwide, and topped the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart while simultaneously peaking at number two on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States. Achieving similar worldwide success, the follow-up EP The Fame Monster (2009), produced a further two global chart-topping singles "Bad Romance" and "Telephone" and allowed her to embark on a second global headlining concert tour, The Monster Ball Tour, just months after having finished her first, The Fame Ball Tour. Her second studio album, Born This Way, is scheduled for release in 2011.
Inspired by glam rock artists like David Bowie and Queen, as well as pop singers such as Madonna and Michael Jackson, Gaga is well-recognized for her outré sense of style as a recording artist, in fashion, in performance and in her music videos. Her contributions to the music industry have garnered her numerous achievements including two Grammy Awards, amongst twelve nominations; two Guinness World Records; and the estimated sale of fifteen million albums and fifty-one million singles worldwide.

Life and career
1986–2004: Early life
Lady Gaga was born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta in New York City on March 28, 1986, the eldest child of Joseph Germanotta, an internet entrepreneur, and Cynthia (née Bissett). She learned to play piano from the age of four, went on to write her first piano ballad at 13 and began performing at open mike nights by age 14.Gaga was raised a Roman Catholic. At the age of 11, Gaga attended Convent of the Sacred Heart, a private all-girls Roman Catholic school on Manhattan's Upper East Side, but has stressed that she does not come from a wealthy background, saying that her parents "both came from lower-class families, so we've worked for everything – my mother worked eight to eight out of the house, in telecommunications, and so did my father."
An avid thespian in high school musicals, Gaga portrayed lead roles as Adelaide in Guys and Dolls and Philia in A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. She described her academic life in high school as "very dedicated, very studious, very disciplined" but also "a bit insecure" as she told in an interview, "I used to get made fun of for being either too provocative or too eccentric, so I started to tone it down. I didn’t fit in, and I felt like a freak."Acquaintances dispute that she did not fit in school. "She had a core group of friends; she was a good student. She liked boys a lot, but singing was No. 1," recalled a former high school classmate. Referring to her "expressive, free spirit", Gaga told Elle magazine "I'm left-handed!"
At age 17, Gaga gained early admission to the New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and lived in a NYU dorm on 11th Street. There she studied music and improved her songwriting skills by composing essays and analytical papers focusing on topics such as art, religion, social issues and politics. Gaga wrote an 80-page thesis on pop artists Spencer Tunick and Damien Hirst; research that prepared her for her future career focus in "music, art, sex and celebrity." Gaga felt that she was more creative than some of her classmates. "Once you learn how to think about art, you can teach yourself," she said. By the second semester of her sophomore year, she withdrew from the school to focus on her musical career. Her father agreed to pay her rent for a year, on the condition that she re-enroll for Tisch if she was unsuccessful. "I left my entire family, got the cheapest apartment I could find, and ate shit until somebody would listen," she said.
