Adriana Lima, commonly known as "the best face in the industry" and "the most in demand runway model in the world", rose to stardom out of less than glamorous conditions. Lima was discovered while shopping at a local mall at the age of 13. At the age of 15, she finished in first place in a Ford Supermodel of Brazil model search. Lima later followed with a second place finish in the 1996 Ford Supermodel of the World contest. Adriana Lima, biography by Maybelline, accessed August 28th, 2005
Shortly after, Lima moved to New York City, and eventually moved on from Ford, signing with Elite Model Management.
