Tatjana Patitz was born in Hamburg, Germany, on March 25, 1966. She was raised in Sweden, where, in the midst of more stunning blonde women, she stood out. Modeling was undeniably in her future, so, at 17, she moved to Paris and began her career. Tatjana quickly captured the attention of the globe's fashion capitals -- Milan, New York, Tokyo -- working with such illustrious names as Donna Karan, Chanel, Versace, Armani, Prada, and Jean Paul Gaultier. In no time, Tatjana was one of the most sought-after models, appearing on the covers of international editions of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire, and Elle.
Confirming her fame as a model, she moved to Hollywood in 1990, and had a brief cameo in the Sean Connery thriller Rising Sun (1993), in which she was killed right at the beginning. She also appeared in the 1991 documentary Models, and played herself in the fashion movie Ready to Wear (1994). Though she's more famous in Europe than in North America, you may have recognized her as the megababe in George Michael's "Freedom 90" Video. In 1999, Tatjana took the coveted role as spokesmodel for super-elegant Swiss watch Longines. In 1999 she starred in her latest movie, the action thriller Restraining Order, with actor Eric Roberts. At 5'11", with a stunning 36-24-36 figure, Tatjana remains a beautiful woman to behold. Gossip mags linked her with Pierce Brosnan, but the rumor remained just that. Tatjana had a long-term relationship with singer Seal, but little more is known of her personal life.
