Noemie Lenoir
Noemie Lenoir was the face of UK retailer Marks & Spencer for four years and I have to say that her regular appearances on TV – usually prancing around in underwear – were a constant treat.
Then she tried to commit suicide and rather disappeared from our screens and the pages of fashion magazines.
This portrait of Noemie by photographed by Marc Baptiste really caught my eye, and it’s a pleasure to discover that she’s now resurfaced, at the age of 33, as the star of Paris’s Crazy Horse cabaret.
