When one thinks of the quintessential American supermodel, Cheryl Tiegs inevitably comes to mind. Born on September 25, 1947, in Breckenridge, Minnesota, Tiegs redefined beauty standards and left an indelible mark on the fashion industry. Her journey from a small-town girl to an international icon is as fascinating as it is inspiring.
Early Life and Breakthrough
Cheryl’s journey began in Alhambra, California, where her family moved when she was a child. Despite her beauty, Cheryl was more interested in academics. It wasn’t until her senior year of high school that she decided to send some photos to modeling agencies.
Her big break came when she was featured on the cover of Glamour magazine in 1964, while she was still a teenager. This cover was a sensation, and soon, she became a household name.
Rising Stardom and Cultural Impact
Cheryl Tiegs is best known for her appearances in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. Her 1978 cover, featuring her in a fishnet swimsuit, became an iconic image and represented a shift in the portrayal of women in media. Tiegs also launched her own line of clothing and accessories for Sears, becoming one of the first models to leverage her brand in such a way.
Beyond Modeling: A Multifaceted Career
Tiegs ventured into various fields, appearing on television shows like “The Love Boat” and “Fantasy Island,” and participating in reality TV. She became an advocate for health and wellness, promoting a balanced lifestyle long before it became trendy.
Cheryl Tiegs’ personal life has been as eventful as her professional one. She has been married four times and has two sons. Despite the ups and downs, she has always remained resilient. In addition to her professional achievements, Tiegs has supported organizations focused on environmental conservation and children’s education, using her platform to make a positive impact.
HOUSE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL – BUT PEOPLE REFUSED TO BUY IT BECAUSE OF WHAT WAS INSIDE
Finding a house that fits your criteria perfectly can be a challenge. Sometimes you have to compromise on a few aspects in order to find a home. However, there are certain things no one is willing to compromise on.
This is the story of a house that seems ordinary enough from the outside but when you peak a look inside… you understand why no one is will to buy it.
A home listed in the UK seemed to be perfect. The listed described it as a home with four bedrooms, a master suite, a garage and a perfectly manicured garden. The listing also included the fact that the home had been maintained to a “high standard” but it seemed like no one wanted to buy it. The reason for that was soon revealed when the pictures of the home’s interior came to light.
Everything inside the interior of the home was purple. The paint on all the walls was of course purple but it did not stop there. The floor was also purple, and the ceilings and the curtains were all purple as well.
The closet doors in the master suite also happened to be a garish purple color. While one might reason that the walls are easy enough to paint over, fixures such as closet doors can be a hassle to replace.
While the inside of the house is a parade of purple, the outside or the exterior of the house has remained unscathed by the color. The garden is also normal looking, not betraying what the inside of the home looks like. The home is listed for £400,000 which is approximately $500 thousand.
Unless the next owner of the property also adores the color purple, something must change.
Would you be willing to live in this house?
