Astrid Muñoz

Astrid Munoz was born in San Juan,Puerto Rico in 1974 and is a model. Munoz has been beautiful her whole life, and as such, her mom and dad spent most of their energy keeping the boys away. Chaperones were enlisted to tag along with her on dates, and she was saddled with a firm curfew that was not to be broken.

Even when rain and lightning cancel a planned day at the beach, sun-worshiping model Astrid Munoz can’t help but heat up the indoor atmosphere of a bungalow hideaway by several degrees. Such mercury-elevating ability is probably due to all the tropical rays she braved while growing up in her native San Juan, Puerto Rico.

In 1993, when she was 19 years old, Muñoz went to Miami to visit a friend; while there she met a modeling agent who suggested that she model in France. Muñoz left for France without consulting her parents. In Paris, she became one of the first Latinas to break through as a model.

After working in Europe for several years, Muñoz relocated to New York, where she continued to appear on the covers of the most renowned fashion magazines and to work in many high fashion campaigns.

In 1998, Muñoz married in Morocco. Her wedding celebration lasted three days and was televised in E! Entertainment Television's "Wedding Celebrities" program in various occasions until 2005. In 2005, Muñoz moved to Paris and in June published her first photos in the Vogue French, Japanese and German versions of Vogue Magazine and in the Spanish magazine Hola, Town and Country (NY) April 2006, ES (London),among many others
