Before there was Claudia Schiffer and Photoshop, there was Brigitte Bardot.

French, former actress, singer, model and now animal rights activist, Bardot was an aspiring ballet dancer before she started her acting career in 1952.
She became world famous due to her role in her then-husband Roger Vadim's controversial film And God Created Woman.

She was the subject of Simone de Beauvoir's 1959 essay, The Lolita Syndrome, which described Bardot as a "locomotive of women's history" and built upon existentialist themes to declare her the first and most liberated woman of post-war France.

Bardot retired from the entertainment industry in 1973.
During her career in show business Bardot starred in 47 films, performed in numerous musical shows, and recorded 80 songs. She was awarded the Légion d'honneur in 1985 but refused to receive it.
After her retirement, Bardot established herself as an animal rights activist. (Wiki)
