Tell me who I look like!

WOW! Such a great photo! How beautiful! My first instincts were Elizabeth Hurley! She is one awesomely pretty lady and so are you! Did I get this one right? I really think you both look a lot alike! Here are some interesting tidbits about Elizabeth Hurley!

Elizabeth Jane Hurley was born on June 10th, 1965 in Basingstoke, Hampshire, England,. She is an English model and former actress who became known as Hugh Grant’s girlfriend in the 1990s. Hurley was a struggling actress in 1987, when she met Hugh Grant while she was working on a Spanish production called Remando Al Viento. In 1994, Grant became the focus of worldwide media attention due to the global box office success of his film ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’. Hurley accompanied him to the film's London premiere and was noted for wearing a plunging black Versace dress, which was held together with gold safety pins. (which appeared ‘tacky’). Her relationship with Hugh Grant ended in 2000.

The highlight of Hurley's professional life has been her association with Estée Lauder cosmetics. It gave Hurley her first modeling job at the ripe old age of 29. Estee Lauder has used her as a model for its products, especially perfumes such as Sensuous and Pleasures, since 1995. Her best known cinematic work was as Vanessa Kensington in Mike Myers's hit spy comedies, Austin Powers, ‘International Man of Mystery’ in 1997 and Austin Powers, ‘The Spy Who Shagged Me’ in 1999. After an unsuccessful stint as a reality television presenter on Project Catwalk in 2006, Hurley currently models and designs beachwear.

Hurley made her first film appearance in ‘Aria’ in 1987. She has also appeared in movies such as Passenger 57, EdTV, Bedazzled, and Serving Sara. In 1997, she received her first and only acting award, the ShoWest Supporting Actress of the Year, for her performance in the spy spoof Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. Critics such as Julie Burchill, who has called Hurley's acting ‘a notch above pornography’, have dismissed her performances. In 2000, she was publicly criticized for breaking a five-month acting strike to film an Estée Lauder advertisement, for which she was fined $100,000 (£70,000 in 2000) by the Screen Actors Guild and labeled "Elizabeth Scably" by protesters.

In late 2002, Hurley started dating Indian textile heir Arun Nayar who was born in Leeds and brought up in Mumbai. Nayar was a graduate of Oxford University and the Imperial College and has operated a software company since 1998. On March 2, 2007, Hurley and Nayar married at Sudeley Castle, followed by a second wedding in Jodhpur, India. After a party at Juhu Beach and a sangeet at Nagaur Fort, the Hindu ceremony was conducted at Umaid Bhawan Palace with a reception on March 8 at Mehrangarh Fort. The wedding ceremonies, photos of which were sold to Hello! magazine for a reported £2 million (same as the estimated cost of the celebrations), were attended by Elton John (who acted as her father in giving her away), Tracey Emin, Tom Ford, Elle Macpherson, Donatella Versace, Trinny Woodall, Tamara Mellon, Valentino, Janet Street Porter, Patsy Kensit, Leonard and Evelyn Lauder, among other celebrities.

Hurley has an estimated net worth of £13 million. Her family resides in a 400-acre organic farmhouse in Barnsley, Gloucestershire. She hopes to launch a low-fat organic food range and is currently in negotiations to appear on a television show about her country life.
