At 14, supermodel Stephanie Seymour began modeling in San Diego. When she was 15 years old, she entered the Elite Look of the Year Contest but didn't win. That didn't stop John Casablancas, then-President of Elite Models, from taking an interest in the teenage Stephanie: they soon began dating and they eventually ended up living together. Stephanie's career as a supermodel then kicked into high gear, but it was often marred with stories of her drinking and drug abuse. (In interviews, Stephanie has talked about her a hard-partying lifestyle.)

In 1989, Stephanie married rock musician Tommy Andrews, and they had a son named Dylan. But Stephanie began having an affair with Warren Beatty and her marriage to Tommy ended in divorce. While she was was dating Warren Beatty, Stephanie met Axl Rose, lead singer of Guns N' Roses. Stephanie immediately dumped Warren and took up with Axl (that's why Axl Rose talks about Warren in the Paris 1992 concert), as they began a passionate but rocky love affair. During her relationship with Axl, Stephanie co-starred in the Guns N' Roses videos "November Rain" and "Don't Cry." Stephanie and Axl eventually became engaged but after living together for two years, they had a bitter breakup. Axl and Stephanie then filed lawsuits against each other, both claiming that the other was physically abusive. Stephanie even subpoenaed Erin Everly, Axl's ex-wife, so Erin would testify that she was also abused by Axl. (The lawsuits have since been settled.)

In 1994, Stephanie married millionaire business mogul Peter Brant (publisher of Interview magazine) and they had two sons together. She still actively models, and her most famous fashion alignment has been Victoria's Secret. Stephanie's 10-year relationship with Victoria's Secret ended in 2000, and she is said to be pursuing "other opportunities."
