Atlee was killed, and Nemcova suffered a broken pelvis and serious internal injuries, but managed to hold onto the top of a palm tree, reportedly for eight hours, until she was rescued and airlifted to an island hospital nearby. Her first interview after her near-death experience was with Diane Sawyer on ABC's Primetime Live, on March 9, 2005. Not for a modeling gig or print ad shoot, but for charity purposes. Ain't that super nice of Petra Nemcova?

The gorgeous model went with Wyclef Jean, who is well-known for helping out his native land Haiti, an impoverished Caribbean island. The two celebrity philanthropists were there to work on a restaurant project being initiated by Wyclef's charity group Yele Haiti. The restaurant will be a boost to the local economy as it will employ fifteen women, and will give the townies a wholesome place to hang out. The singer also toured Petra Nemcova in his former play grounds, and the site of a computer lab that had been set up by his charity too. Says Wyclef, "If you want to change a country, unfortunately you're not going to be able to help eight million people at one time. But if you can get one or two or three and start to make that change, that will make the difference." Below is the picture of Petra Nemcova and Wyclef in the aforementioned computer lab spending time with the local kids.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were all over the news when they attended the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative. But do you know that they’re not the only celebrities there? Jessica Biel, Mary Louise Parker and the gorgeous Petra Nemcova also attended the same event in New York from September 26 to 28, albeit with lesser media coverage. Below is the photo (left) of the exquisite Petra Nemcova during her arrival in the opening night reception of the conference at the Museum of Modern Art. In other Petra Nemcova news, the stunning model was last seen promoting a champagne. Not just any champagne, mind you, but a classy one that regular guys can’t afford. So sorry to mention that, lol! The said drink is the new gold bottle of champagne of Moet & Chandon, and of course, James Blunt’s ex-lover wore a sparkling gold and silver dress at the drink’s launch in Madrid. Here she is (right photo) looking glamorous while offering you a drink of the pricey gold champagne. Mmm good!

She made her first American Television performance on the Late Late Show with Craig Kiborn on CBS before the 2003 SI Swimsuit Issue. (Kilborn predicted that Nemcova would make the 2003 swimsuit issue and was correct.) Nemcova stands at 5' 8" with brown hair and blue eyes and a gorgeous face and physique. Although, she has more fame then most people can ever imagine, those who know her best say that she is a very down to earth and normal person. She does not let all of the fame and fortune she has get to her head. In fact, she considers herself lucky to be alive. Nemcova was in South East Asia when the devastating Tsunami that claimed thousands of lives hit the area. Her vacation home on the beach was destroyed and she was forced to cling to a tree for almost eight hours through 50 mph winds, while waves crashed around her. At the time, she was vacationing with her boyfriend, Simon Atlee, a British Fashion photographer, on the Khao Lak beach. Unfortunately, Atlee has not been seen since the tsunami and he was most likely killed and washed out to sea.

Biography :

Born in the town of Decin, Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) on February 28th, 1984, Karolina Kurkova had a slight taste of what celebrity would be like, as her father Josef Kurka was a star basketball player. As a child, her height made her relatively awkward and gangly, but that would all change with age. A close friend recognized her beauty and sent photos of Kurkova to an agency in Prague. Kurkova immediately landed a runway appearance, not to mention a commercial and print ad. Still, being a model in the Czech Republic did not expose her to what fashion was really about, so Kurkova took a chance and traveled to Milan to gain some more experience. There, Miuccia Prada (the designer behind the famous brand name) signed her to a contract that proved to be the beginning of her stellar career. On September 7th, 1999, Kurkova's hard work as a 15-year-old model culminated in a meeting with some Vogue editors in New York. She impressed them immediately and the execs began to slowly groom her for success.

A move to the Big Apple and hectic work schedule ensued. It all paid off when Kurkova finally made her presence known in the February 2001 issue of Vogue. One of the youngest models ever to grace its cover, the magazine helped propel her to stardom. She was now recognized at haute couture fashion shows and Victoria's Secret swept her up and chose her to be part of that year's television special, in November. Even fashion houses like Yves Saint Laurent took note of the stunning beauty and proceeded to sign Kurkova to deals. Print campaigns for Tommy, Valentino and others helped expose Karolina Kurkova even more, while she headlined the second Victoria's Secret show the following year. The constant flow of work (she is said to have worked 23 weeks straight) was recognized by Vogue as they honored her with the "Model of the Year" title at the 2002 VH1/Vogue Fashion Awards.
The usual contracts with big designers such as Ralph Lauren, Oscar de la Renta and Balenciaga continued, and a recent tally put Kurkova's magazine cover appearances at 60 and counting. She is revered as much in the fashion world for her personality, which is described as intense and energetic, as for her looks. This attractive attitude leaves little doubt that Kurkova will emerge as a legendary supermodel; even Vogue editor Anna Wintour called her the "next supermodel." Living in New York's TriBeCa district with her longtime boyfriend, Karolina Kurkova is able to separate herself from modeling enough to enjoy courtside basketball games at Madison Square Garden. We only hope that she can keep up this frenetic work pace or realize that sometimes, less is more.
