My Take
Rachel Hunter is fascinating to me precisely because she refused to be defined by the magazine covers. The Glenfield-born New Zealander conquered Vogue, Elle and Sports Illustrated, the full supermodel resume, yet she did not stop there. Moving into acting and hosting her own Tour of Beauty television series, she turned herself from the subject of the image into the storyteller behind it. That reinvention, building a career around her own name rather than someone else's lens, is what earns my respect. There is real backbone in someone who keeps redefining what they do well past the runway years.
