ur welcome but i still think unfair that people still seperate models from commerical and editorial they are a few like Naomi and Cindy

[Lolita]

Oh yes I definetly agree with you. Shoot I forget what commercial model means again. Crap. Commercial means like a model that can model more than just magazine ads right? Like she can do magazine ads, runway and tv commercials.

Yes, I remember Petra explaining the difference in the book. I love her, she explains everything about modeling. I love her little behind the scenes stories.

I love Petra for her beauty inside and out. Here is an excerpt from her book, I hope it hasn't been posted.

"I read once that when people are dying, their whole life is flashing before them. I wasn't so sure I was dying, but while I waited, and prayed for help to return for both myself and all the others I began to think about Simon first and then my mother, my father, my sister, my grandfather, my grandmothers, my friends my work. I believe that there is a pattern to life, and lying there, cradled in the palm tree, I could see how what had gone before in my life was making it possible for me to survive."

She never really stood out to me until I saw her on the Sports Illustrated video. She seemed really genuine & kind. Then with the Tsunami circumstance and how she dealt with it, I really grew to respect her as a woman and person. I hope she finds somebody who can love her and who she can love as much as she loved Simon Atlee.

Thanks for the link to the book excerpt. Wow, from paradise to a living nightmare!! She is a very strong woman.

Was Petra on the Howard Stern show? I was looking on IMDb under her name & it has her listed on Howard Stern on Demand- Howard's press tour 2006. I used the search button on here & didn't find a match.

Wow Petra lost weight quick. She looks great either way. I just love her.

[SOCOM]

I dunno if this has been brought up before (if it has im sorry) but i think she is in the Walt Disney World commercial. Isnt she Jazmin from Aladdin in the commercial?

[SOCOM]

[Lolita]

I doubt that Petra was Jasmine.
