in Ireland until her modeling career took off number two she she signed her first modeling contract when she was 14 the young Emily was signed to Ford models when she was just 14 years old and her first jobs included cataloges for Nordstrom and Kohl's her modeling career has continued to go from strength to strength and she has since been featured in Harper's Bazaar and walked for designers at New York and Paris fashion weeks number three her first acting roles left a lot to be desired and her manager discour enaged her from pursuing it after signing
up to a modeling agency Emily pursued some acting roles with Disney unfortunately she was often cast in stereotypical pretty girl roles which both her and her manager at the time disliked he didn't think it would do her career any favors so encouraged her to wait until better roles came along looks like he was right number four she used to regularly visit nude beaches with her parents cringe with such liberal artistic parents it's no wonder that Rakowski found herself on nude beaches in Europe repeatedly during her childhood her father often painted nude figures too perhaps this
gives us some insight as to why she was so comfortable appearing naked in a music video number five her character in Gone Girl is not flatteringly described Rakowski played Ben Affleck's mistress in Thriller gon girl a character who is not well loved in the novel she is described as an alien and a blowup doll but this probably suits Rakowski quite well as she's Keen to explore more interesting and divisive roles in her acting rather than just playing the pretty girl number six she didn't get on with her contemporaries at College Emily Rakowski studied art at
UCLA but didn't particularly enjoy the social side of things she said she felt like a complete Outsider because all of her roommates were blonde sorority girls and she didn't fit their mold this contributed to why she dropped out as well as feeling the art world is insanely elitist good idea to choose Hollywood then number seven Rakowski is an advocate for women's Reproductive Rights it's easy to overlook a woman as beautiful as Rakowski and think she's an airhead but it couldn't be further from the truth the model and actress is an advocate for Planned Parenthood and
women's Reproductive Rights she also vocally and publicly defended Kim card iian for posting copious naked selfies online standing beside her literally and fighting against body shaming and [ __ ] shaming number eight she faced immense pressure from family to hide her good looks in a letter written for Alina Dunham's website Lenny letter the model and actress wrote about her childhood and how overt sexuality was discouraged she said that teachers friends and the adults around her were more often the ones to make her feel uncomfortable or guilty about my developing sexuality her mother encouraged her to
keep a low profile when she began to develop and grow breasts number nine some naked photos were published by a photographer without her consent in 2016 photographer Jonathan leader published a book of nude photos featuring Rakowski before Blurred Lines without her permission causing her to speak out publicly on Twitter originally she said she didn't want to because she didn't want to generate any more publicity for the photographer but felt forced to speak out about them being a violation number 10 Rakowski is glad that Blurred Lines was criticized when Blurred Lines was released it came under
Fire for being misogynistic and promotion of rape culture with its lyrics the video was radowski's breakout role and made her famous but she's not worried about the criticism she believes that anything involving naked women and dressed men should be criticized or at least inspected number 11 Bianca Jagger and Patty Smith are two of her Inspirations despite being a picture of femininity herself Rakowski loves Patty Smith's androgynous style and has said that she likes playing with male Silhouettes she also loves experimenting with sexiness and having one part of your body showing rather than an All or
Nothing approach number 12 she was offered her part in Gone Girl 30 minutes after her audition it was Ben Affleck who suggested Emily to Gone Girl director David Fincher and she was ultimately quite shocked that they took her so seriously because she wasn't used to that kind of treatment in auditions she thought she wouldn't hear back for days but got the call in just half an hour after the audition number 13 she drives a very modest Nissan Versa you'd think that a supermodel end actress would have a Porsche or a Ferrari but when asked about
her cameo in entourage she said she couldn't be further from her character in the film she drives an Aston Martin in full hair and makeup but the real Emily is more down toe and drives a Nissan you're probably more interested in the more expensive cars right we thought so here are 15 things you didn't know about Lexus number 14 her intellectual parents wanted her to be a doctor the Rakowski had big academic Ambitions for their daughter they wanted her to go into medicine model Scouts were after Emily from a young age but her mother insisted
that her daughter was going to be a brain surgeon number 15 she's faced a lot of rejection when looking for movie roles she's very strict about what she auditions for these days but that doesn't mean that she's a shuin Rakowski was passed over for a film adaptation of the seagull and a part in a Philip Roth novel adaptation too it's very easy to overlook Emily Rakowski as just another model and actress but when you read more into her it's clear that she's much savier than people give her credit for thank God she's been able to
move past her roles in Disney shows because it looks like her acting ability is getting noticed what kind of role would you love to see Emily Rakowski take on next can she go beyond playing the pretty girl oh you're still here well here's something else that's pretty interesting about Emily Rakowski that you probably didn't know her artsy liberal parents were such intellectuals they never owned a TV it's incredibly ironic that she would go on to live her life on screen when Emily auditioned for the Disney show I Carly she'd never even seen it thank you
