Miranda May Kerr was born on 20th April 1983. She is an Australian model. Kerr rose to prominence in 2007 as one of the Victoria’s Secret Angels. She is the first Australian to participate in the Victoria’s Secret campaign and also represented the Australian up-market department store chain, David Jones. In addition, Kerr has launched her own brand of organic skincare products, Kora Organics, and released a self-help book, Treasure Yourself.

Kerr began modelling in the fashion industry when she was 13, starting at Chaay’s Modelling Agency, and subsequently won a 1997 Australian nationwide model search hosted by Dolly magazine and Impulse fragrances. She married English actor Orlando Bloom in 2010; they have since separated.

In New York, Kerr had a multitude of runway appearances and then signed with NEXT Model Management in early 2004. From there, she was booked for runway and print campaigns for major labels, including Alex Perry, Baby Phat, Lisa Ho, Voodoo Dolls, Levi’s, Bettina Liano, Nicola Finetti, L.A.M.B., Heatherette, Betsey Johnson, Trelise Cooper, Jets, John Richmond, Blumarine Swimwear, Neiman Marcus, Seafolly Swimwear, Anna Molinari, Rock and Republic, Roberto Cavalli, and Ober Jeans. Kerr was also booked for print in magazines such as Elle, Australian Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and was featured in television advertisements for brands like Portmans, Bonds, and Veet.

In early 2006, Kerr appeared in the finale episode of the TV show Project Runway, modelling clothes for contestant Daniel Vosovic’s final collection. She was the first woman to walk down the catwalk. She debuted with the United States market when she signed a lucrative cosmetics contract with Maybelline New York. The campaign ran in a series of internationally sold women’s beauty magazines, including Cosmopolitan, CLEO, and Elle, and was eventually featured in Victoria’s Secret catalogues. Along with several other Victoria’s Secret and Next agency models, Kerr was also featured in a music video for the American hip-hop single “Number One” by artists Kanye West and Pharrell.

Following her success with Maybelline, Kerr became the first Australian model to be offered a contract with Victoria’s Secret in 2007, replacing Gisele Bundchen. Upon her acceptance, she became the first ever Australian Victoria’s Secret Angel joining the stable of models already signed to the lingerie giant, including Alessandra Ambrosio, Karolina Kurkova, Adriana Lima, Selita Ebanks, Izabel Goulart, and Heidi Klum. Before becoming an Angel in 2007, Kerr was already picked to become the successor of Alessandra Ambrosio as the face of PINK in 2006. Kerr’s popularity continued to increase as one of the globally recognised Angels when she appeared in the Victoria’s Secret 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 televised runway shows, which aired on four continents.

In 2007, Kerr had signed on as the face of Californian fashion retailer Arden B. After debuting in their Spring and Summer ad campaigns, Kerr returned for their Fall 2007 campaign, shot by fashion photographer Diego Uchitel. Following her modeling success with Victoria’s Secret, Kerr made a small guest appearance in the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother alongside fellow Angels: Adriana Lima, Marisa Miller, Alessandra Ambrosio, Heidi Klum, and Selita Ebanks.

She also became the new face of Clinique Happy and signed a lucrative six-figure deal to be the new face of Australian department store David Jones, replacing model Megan Gale. In 2008, having earned an estimated $3.5 million in the past 12 months, Forbes placed Kerr tenth in the list of the world’s top-earning models.

Since 2009, Kerr was in the spring/summer ad campaign for O. She was in Forbes 2009 list of the world’s highest-paid models, ranking 9th with estimated earnings of $3 million. She left NEXT Model Management and signed with IMG Models. Kerr posed nude on the cover of Rolling Stone Australia’s July 2009 issue. She then ended the year walking in the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

In October 2009, Kerr launched her own brand of organic skincare products, Kora Organics, with George Moskos and become the face for Kora Organic Skincare.

In June 2009, Kerr posed naked, chained to a tree, for an issue of Rolling Stone Australia magazine, to raise awareness for the endangered koalas. Her charitable work includes Wildlife Warriors Worldwide and Children International. In August 2010, Kerr released an inspirational self-esteem, self-help book, Treasure Yourself. Treasure Yourself is aimed at female teenagers.

She appeared in the 2010 Pirelli Calendar photographed by Terry Richardson in Bahia, Brazil. Previously better known for her Victoria’s Secret status rather than her high fashion work, Balenciaga is credited for launching her high fashion modelling career when casting directors Ashley Brokaw and Nicolas Ghesquiere chose her to walk exclusively for the brand’s spring 2010 runway show. It was her first designer fashion show, aside from Victoria’s Secret, since 2007. A season later she walked for design company Prada for their Fall 2010 collection in Milan alongside fellow Angels Doutzen Kroes and Alessandra Ambrosio. Kerr then modelled for campaigns for Prada and Jil Sander, and was shot by Steven Meisel for the cover of Italian Vogue for September.

In January 2011, Kerr became the first pregnant model for Vogue when featured in Vogue Australia, being six months pregnant at the time of the shoot. In March she hit the catwalk for Balenciaga’s Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear collection as part of Paris Fashion Week, two months after giving birth. Kerr also posed nude for a 2011 Harper’s Bazaar photo shoot. In October at Paris Fashion Week SS12 she walked the runway for Christian Dior, Lanvin, Chanel, John Galliano, Stella McCartney, Viktor & Rolf and Loewe. Kerr was chosen to present the $2.5 million Victoria’s Secret Fantasy Treasure Bra for their fashion show in November 2011.

In January 2012, she was named ambassador for Qantas. In June, Kerr signed a contract to represent Samantha Thavasa, promoting the brand’s “Malissa” bag. In November, she was named the new face of high street brand Mango, replacing Kate Moss for its spring/summer 2013 campaign.

In March 2013, negotiations to renew her five-year contract with David Jones “fell through,” leading to a peaceful split between the two parties. The following month, it was reported that Kerr’s three-year, $1-million contract with Victoria’s Secret was not being renewed. Anonymous sources claimed Kerr had a “difficult reputation” and was not “a big seller for VS”; however, Kerr’s camp stated she was unable to commit the necessary time to the brand. In response, Victoria’s Secret chief marketing officer Ed Razek stated he had already invited Kerr to walk in that year’s fashion show.

She was ranked 2nd in Forbes 2013 list of the world’s highest-paid models, with estimated earnings of $7.2 million. In October, Kerr was named the face of Austrian crystal house Swarovski for their fall 2013 campaign, and that December she starred in social shopping website ShopStyle’s first national campaign.

In February, Kerr replaced Gisele Bundchen as the face of Swedish clothing brand H&M. She then featured in high-profile campaigns for Reebok and Wonderbra.On 22 April 2014, Kerr released her first single on-line, featuring her and crooner Bobby Fox, in a cover of Elvis Presley’s “You’re The Boss”.

In February 2010, Kerr became the subject of global headlines when David ly, a banker at Macquarie Bank in Sydney, was caught viewing more explicit photos of her on his computer while in the background of a colleague’s live television interview with Channel 7. Within days, a clip of the interview uploaded onto YouTube received over 1.3 million hits.Eventually, Kiely was suspended and an internet campaign launched on his behalf. Kerr herself gave him her backing: “I am told there is a petition to save his job, and of course I would sign it.” The incident prompted a 100% increase in the number of Google searches for Kerr’s name. A few days after the incident, Macquarie Bank announced that Kiely would keep his job.

Kerr’s model trademark is her dimples. Celebrity photographer Russell James stated:

The US has fallen in love with her. We love her because she has the most incredible girl-next-door look and she’s also insanely beautiful. It means women are not intimidated by her looks and guys think they might be able to talk to her. It’s a fantastic combination … people want to be around her; she’s fun on a shoot … and she’s not stupid, which can be a very annoying trait among some models.

Model agent Ursula Hufnagl described Kerr as “the perfect endorsement”, citing her ability to “truly sell a product”

Kerr practices Nichiren Buddhism in the Soka Gakkai tradition and believes “we have a responsibility to bring peace and harmony to our lives and the world.” As part of her Nichiren Buddhist beliefs, Kerr chants Nam Myoho Renge Kyo every morning and night, practices yoga, meditates, and reads widely on spirituality. She maintains her physique through daily yoga, light jogging, and a diet of steamed vegetables, fresh fruit, and fish.

Kerr told readers of Australian Cosmopolitan that coconut oil was the key to her clear skin, shiny hair and trim figure, saying she ingests four tablespoons a day, either on salads, in her cooking or in her cups of green tea.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

To begin with congratulations for the debut book “Treasure Yourself” launched last year. We would like you to elaborate on the idea behind the book and why is it special for Miranda?

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

Treasure Yourself was born out of the many questions young women had asked me via Facebook, letters and emails. It is an honest account of how I approach life, and personal experiences that have played an important part in the person I am today. Treasure Yourself has enabled me to reach out to many young women and hopefully influence them in a positive way.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

It has been brought to my notice that Miranda has added her own personal touch by applying a positive word to the back of each of KORA Organics products. Words such as; kindness, presence, honour and laughter have been used with the intent that the vibrational energy associated with these words flows through the product and onto the user. I would like her to add some light on the reason behind the same.

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

In my own life I believe in and use positive affirmations, and as such I wanted to give each of the KORA Organics products a personal touch.

Dr Masaru Emoto’s studies on water crystals reveal how the molecular structure of water can be dramatically impacted by thoughts, intentions, words, ideas and even music. Dr Emoto discovered that we can create profound healing or have an equally destructive affect on our own body just in the way we think.

I believe in Dr Emoto’s work and the intention was that the positive words on each of the KORA Organics products would create a positive affect for the user.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

What lifestyle routine in terms of diet & exercise does Miranda follow to stay healthy and fit? What kind of diet regime she follows to stay free from stress and pressure of work?

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

Yoga is at the core of my health and fitness regime, I enjoy practicing regularly and have done so for over ten years now. I also love to do pilates. Low impact activities that focus on the connection between mind and body work best for me. It is important that every woman listens to what works best for their own body.

For my diet day to day I adopt the 80/20 rule. 80% healthy and organic, 20% indulgent and that works for me and my body personally. I indulge occasionally and avoid counting calories.

Ideally, I like to start my day with a fresh pressed green juice with kale, cucumber, spinach, parsley and lemon. Half an hour later I like to make a smoothie with sun warrior protein powder, goggi berries, noni juice, viatmineral greens, chia seeds, bee pollen, raw cacao powder, macca powder and acai powder. I will then have organic eggs or oatmeal for breakfast.  That works for me and is a great way to get my body started for the day. I believe breakfast is one of the most important meals in the day.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Most of the women complains unavailability of time to take personal care with regards to diet and exercise. We would like Miranda to comment on how she balances between work, business and family to stay at her best. We understand that it’s tough for everyone but the reason that keeps her going on and on.

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

On my days off I try to spend as much time with Flynn as possible and during his naps I make sure I fit in yoga, pilates or exercise routine. As far as the work family balance at the moment Flynn is my priority and I try to schedule work when Orlando is not working so he can be with Flynn. I have also been doing a lot of slow cooking in the oven so I can go about my day while dinner is cooking.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Women Fitness promotes the aspect of natural and healthy living without incorporating the use of synthetic products sold at large. While reading through the KORA (I like the name derived from “core” meaning the essence of existence) Media Kit, I felt happy to note that Miranda’s thoughts are reminiscent to those at our end, that’s again one of the reasons she deserves a big welcome to WF family. We would like her to elaborate on what motivated her to launch an organic product range?

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

I am passionate about health and nutrition and I have always paid close attention to everything I put in and on my body. I created the KORA Organics product range because it was the only way for me to have everything I was looking for in a Certified Organic Skincare range. I also wanted something I could recommend to fans and do so from the heart. The KORA Organics brand reflects everything I believe in and I am very proud of where we are today and inspired by the testimonials we receive on a daily basis (www.koraorganics.com/testimonials).

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Miranda has been modeling since she was 13 yrs old. All through the exiting journey as a model she must have aimed to be at her best, who has been her role model and why?

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

My mother is my greatest role model and best friend. She has been the guiding force in my life and given me support in everything I have done and every decision I have made. Today my mum is also the General Manager of KORA Organics and together we make a great team.

Ms. Namita Nayyar:

Women Fitness health portal was launched in the year 2000 to create a place where women from all over the world could gain knowledge as to, how to take care of themselves with regard to optimum nutrition, exercise, beauty care, through different phases of their lives in a healthy state or while they are suffering from an ailment. All through these years we have tried to maintain the standard and serve women to the best of our capacity, we would love to have motivational input from Miranda Kerr for the company.

Ms. Miranda Kerr:

Congratulations to Women Fitness ( http://www.womenfitness.net) for encouraging women all over the world to live their best and educating them on how to enjoy a long healthy life!
