Life and Career
Born in Palma, she was originally a singer and dancer for the band Peor Imposible. She was discovered by filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar at a café in Madrid in 1986. Her first major role was in 1988 in Almodóvar's Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown and she would go on to be one of Almodóvar's recurring cast. She became a model for designers Jean-Paul Gaultier, Thierry Mugler, and Sybilla. She then appeared in Robert Altman's 1994 satirical fashion film Prêt-à-Porter and in the music video of George Michael's "Too Funky" song.
She has two children and currently lives in Paris[1], where she acts and models. As of 2010, she is a theater actress, charity spokeswoman for the Ghanaian charity OrphanAid Africa, and the face of luxury ad campaigns.[2] In 2007, she released a perfume line under her name through Etat libre d'Orange. In 2009, she posed nude in an information campaign on breast cancer for the magazine Marie Claire. She was selected to be on the jury for the main competition section of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.[3][4]
