The Beauty of Retrospect, Olympic Edition: Janet Evans!
Here's another picture of the lovely Olympic swimming champion Janet Evans, who turns 37 today. She's wearing all six of her Olympic medals - four gold, two silver.
Miss Evans has had a touch of the sublime and the ridiculous this year. She covered the 2008 Olympics for Yahoo, and saw British swimmer Rebecca Adlington break her 800-meter world record. She remains in demand as a motivational speaker, but also as a reality show star - she appeared on "Celebrity Circus" this year.
And to think it's been twenty years since she made her Olympic debut in Seoul. Happy birthday, Janet. :-)

The Beauty of Retrospect, Part Five: Karen Graham, One More Time!
This picture of Karen Graham from her long and illustrious initial Estée Lauder campaign is from 1985, toward the end of that run.
She quit when she turned forty in 1985 because she didn't want to see herself going downhill as a model. Like, how was that possible? :-)

The Golden Girls of Track and Field
Pictured below are the very lovely and very fast U.S. women's 4x400-meter track relay team that won the gold medal in the 2008 Olympics. It's proof that Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh didn't have a monopoly on hotness in Beijing.
From left: Sanya Richards, Mary Wineberg, Monique Henderson, and Allyson Felix.
Swifter, higher, stronger, ladies!

Model/singer Rosie Vela
You've heard of models who became actresses, but models who became singers? :-)
Rosie Vela was a top model of the 1970s and 1980s who turned to music in 1986, recording her album Zazu with help from Walter Becker and Donald Fagen of Steely Dan. Subsequent attmepts at a followup were met with resistance by her record company. She has also collaborated with Electric Light Orchestra leader Jeff Lynne.

Actress Rene Russo
Rene Russo is the American version of Famke Janssen - a beautiful model who can act. :-)
Discovered by a modeling agent at a Rolling Stones concert, Russo went on to be featured prominently in major film roles, including movies such as Major League and In the Line of Fire. Her most notable role might very well be as Karen Flores in 1996's Get Shorty.
