Patrisiya Velaskes - legendary supermodel and a Venezuelan Hispanic actress who became the first exotic beauty to parade on the New York catwalk. Conquering men with incredibly attractive appearance, numerous hot photos, the girl gained worldwide fame after playing the beautiful Ankh-su-Namun in the movie "The Mummy", and then broke the hearts of millions of fans, confessing her unconventional sexual preferences and actively taking up charity work.

Brief biography and personal life

Patricia Velazquez (hot photos are shown below in the article) was born on the last day of January 1971 in the largest Venezuelan city of Maracaibo. The family of the future model was not rich, but very friendly and rather happy, and in one of her interviews Patricia told how the children were all forced to carry water to the 15th floor of the house due to problems caused by the operation of the elevator.

The work of the star's father at UNESCO forced the family to constantly move and until 4 years old the future model lived in Paris, and then moved to Mexico with her parents. Before entering college, young Vanessa returned to her homeland, where she began her modeling career.

Having entered the Faculty of Engineering and planning to work in a Venezuelan oil company, the beauty studied diligently and was actively engaged in dancing, with which she wanted to connect her future life in her dreams. Patricia's friend wanted to become a model and persuaded Velazquez to try her hand at the company and send photos to a modeling agency, whose managers immediately spotted the girl's exotic beauty and invited the girl to a test shoot.

Patricia celebrated her 17th birthday by participating in the Dolce & Gabbana show, and a little later other fashion houses in Paris, Milan, London and Madrid literally fought for the chance to work with her.

Having reached adulthood, the exotic beauty took part in the Miss Venezuela competition, where she became only 7, but quickly forgot about defeat, starring in a photo shoot for Chanel, Roberto Verino, and then participating in fashion shows from Antonio Berardi, Bella Freud, Corinne Cobson and Claude Montana.

Patricia also paid attention to Victoria Secrets, appearing in the catalog of fashionable lingerie, and then returned to filming for Vogue, Harper Bazar and Mary Claire. In 1997, Patricia decided to leave her modeling career. The girl's plans were to recover at the institute and work as an engineer in an oil company, but she did not think at all about an acting career.

According to Velasquez, each model, finishing her career, asks herself: "Should I become an actress," so she decided to go the other way, but changed her mind, having received the first proposal from the French director. From the very first role, the young actress was lucky to work on "Jaguar" together with Jean Reno and Patrick Bruel. In 1999, the actress appeared in Beowulf, which was rather coolly received by the audience, and then her finest hour came along with the role of the reincarnation of Ankh-su-Namun in the mega popular film projects The Mummy and The Mummy Returns.

Huge success inspired the young actress, who later starred:

• in "Sex in Another City";
• in "Save Me";
• in "Arrested Development";
• in Mindhunters;
• in Eternal Ash;
• in "Fox in September".

In addition to cinema, Patricia also worked a lot on television, becoming a constant judge in model television shows, and also produced several films. In 2019, the actress starred in The Crying Curse, which tells the story of a ghost who killed her own children, and then went into business closely, founding her own line of organic cosmetics. Patricia officially recognized her non-traditional sexual orientation, becoming the first lesbian of Hispanic descent.

In 2015, Velasquez published a memoir, Direct Move, in which she spoke about her impoverished childhood, the difficult start of her modeling career and a long love relationship with comedian actress Sandra Bernhard. In Sandra, Patricia fell in love with no memory yet, while she was in a close relationship with Madonna, and it was these feelings that allowed the model to finally understand and rethink her sex life.

The women were together for several years, and then broke up at the initiative of Sandra, which inflicted a severe wound on Patricia. Velasquez tried several times to start relationships with men, but nothing good, she said, did not work out.

Now the actress is dating Jennifer Crease and is raising an adopted daughter, but has never been married. Patricia confessed her sexual preferences to her family much earlier than she released a sensational memoir. According to the model, the relatives could not come to terms with the news for several years, but later they accepted Patricia's addiction, unlike other residents of Venezuela, who periodically look askance at a strange, in their opinion, star.

Following in the footsteps of her father, Patricia gives a large amount of her time to charity, being considered the ambassador of UNESCO and the founder of Wayuu Taya, who dealt with the problems of indigenous people around the world.

How has changed over time

Patricia Velazquez (photos of hot supermodels in 2011 graced the cover of Maxim magazine) next year is going to celebrate her 50th anniversary, as well as take stock of the first half of her life. A beautiful brunette with a bright exotic appearance, who brilliantly played the role of the wife of the pharaoh, has changed little over time. The talented actress is still active in films, produces films and participates as a judge in various model shows, and also maintains a flourishing appearance and attractive forms.

At 49 years old, Patricia weighs only 59 kg (with a height of 177 cm) and carefully looks after her appearance, trying to actively keep up with the times. Not going to grow old, Patricia, as in her youth, amazes fans with her delightful, mesmerizing, haughty look, but unfortunately for men, she prefers to have love affairs only with women.

Plastic

Patricia Velazquez (photos of hot actresses adorned a huge number of catalogs of sportswear) in her memoir "Direct Drive" frankly spoke not only about her sexual preferences, but also about plastic surgery performed in her youth. For the sake of her career, according to the model, she was forced to insert size B drop-shaped implants into her breasts, giving the actress a third size.

In subsequent years, in order to maintain the beauty and youthfulness of her face, Patricia repeatedly injected botulinum toxin, but she tried to refrain from more radical intervention, remembering well the experiences caused by the need for mammoplasty. Considered one of the most beautiful women in Latin America, Patricia does not want to follow Hollywood canons and does not pursue the return of youth, deciding to age as naturally and beautifully as possible.

Beauty secrets

Patricia Velazquez is attentive to her health and, at the age of 49, amazes fans with a young and blooming look.

Face care

A few years ago, the legendary fashion model tried her hand at being an entrepreneur, opening her own line of natural organic cosmetics, Taya Beauty, which promotes the power of coconut oil and milk for the beauty of skin and hair. The actress herself successfully uses her own products, adhering to the opinion that the basis of beauty is thorough cleansing and moisturizing of the skin.

Using natural coconut oil from her own collection to cleanse the skin of makeup, the actress then applies a moisturizing lotion and anti-wrinkle cream, and periodically makes relaxing masks to help effectively fight age-related changes.

In make-up, the actress prefers moderation, using only a small amount of foundation, concealer, highlighter and mascara, but does not use SPF creams, believing that her naturally dark skin looks amazing with a spectacular, brown tan. Diligently caring for the beauty and youthfulness of the skin, Patricia visits a beauty salon at least 2 times a month, where she performs a vacuum facial cleansing, supplemented with fruit peeling and rejuvenating serum.

Once every 6 months, the model also leads a course of skin-regenerating biorevitalization, believing in the magical, moisturizing and regenerating power of hyaluronic acid.

Hair care

Coconut milk, considered the main component of the Taya Beauty cosmetic line, carefully nourishes and cares for the star's hair, and also helps to restore its structure. To wash her hair, Patricia uses the Taya Pure Coconut Milk Intense Nourishing series, which includes shampoo and conditioner, which provides good hair cleansing.

Intensive nourishing hair balm of the same series helps to nourish the strands of the actress, restoring hair and giving it elasticity and shine. For more than 30 years, Patricia prefers loose strands that fall freely over the shoulders, only occasionally collecting them into a high hairstyle with hairpins.

The actress tries to dry her curls naturally, without using a hair dryer, and for styling uses a minimum amount of styling products. Patricia does not use elastic bands and other hair-tightening devices, fearing damage to her luxurious, dark curls.

Food

The model began to adhere to the minimum nutrition in her early youth, becoming the face of Dolce Gabbana. In her memoir, Patricia described the early years of her career as being very hungry, forcing her to eat small pieces of chicken and wash them down with tomato juice. After finishing her modeling career, Velasquez allowed herself to relax a little, but she did not stop adhering to reasonable restrictions. Proper nutrition, consisting of a large variety of vegetables and fruits, helps the actress keep her weight at around 55 kg.

The actress hates chicken since her youth, but she does not refuse lean meat and fish, believing that the body simply needs animal protein. Strict diets, worn out with constant restriction in nutrition, Patricia no longer accepts and sometimes allows herself her favorite chocolate and cakes, but tries not to abuse junk food. One of the secrets of her beauty, the actress calls the obligatory drinking regimen, consisting of at least 1.5 liters of water drunk during the day.This technique allows the actress to moisturize the tissues from the inside, as well as quickly and painlessly remove harmful toxins from the body that lead to aging.

Sport

Patricia Velazquez prides herself on being constantly on the move. Jogging in the morning, swimming, cycling and constant walks are just a few of the actress's preferences that help her stay in good shape. Traveling frequently with her charitable foundation, Patricia visits indigenous peoples around the world and always prefers to travel on foot, minimizing the time spent in the chair.

3 times a week, the former model visits the gym, where she conducts cardio and strength training, and also does yoga, Pilates and dances that she loved from her youth, which have a beneficial effect on her body condition.

Photoshoot

Hot photos of Patricia Velazquez in bikini and underwear constantly appeared in the catalogs of the leading fashion houses in France, Italy, Spain and Japan, and in 2011 the half-naked film actress became the heroine of Maxim magazine's spread, appearing on the centerfold in red, lace lingerie, beautifully shading her tanned body ... Over the years, photographs of the model have appeared in the magazines Harper Bazar, Vogue and Mary Claire, and for Victoria Secret Patricia held a sensual photo session in a swimsuit decorated with fresh flowers.
