Supermodel Nadja Auermann was born on March 19, 1971, in Berlin, Germany. She was scouted in her hometown of Berlin in 1989 and made her modeling debut. She rose to fame just as the glamorous modeling boom faded and the "wayward look" took over.

She has appeared in shows and advertisements for Prada, Versace, Valentino, and Karl Lagerfeld. She even produced her own fragrance. Her popularity waned for a time, but she regained attention after cutting her platinum blonde hair short. She is currently retired from modeling.
