Cameron: SuperModel to Yoga

Cameron Alborzian was one of the "Face Boys"  of the early 90s. As a top male model, he worked with the likes of the late photographer Herb Ritts, modeled for Valentino and shot music videos with Madonna.

Yogi Cameron Alborzian (born 26 February 1967) is a British/Irianan yoga and  former Male SuperModel  . After a successful career as male model in the fashion industry as the face of labels such as Guess, Levis, and Versace as well as a starring role in  Madonna's Express Yourself video, he shifted his focus to work with people as an Ayurveda and yoga therapist. The Guru in You, his first book published in America, was released by HarperCollins in January 2011.

Alborzian was born in Iran to an English mother and Iranian father. In late 1978, Alborzian’s parents sent him away to an English boarding school in response to the ever-increasing anti-Shah protests dominating the country.

He attended various boarding schools in England as well as one year of university before dropping out and moving to London. Soon after his arrival, a modeling scout on the street spotted him. Several weeks later he appeared in a  Jean Paul Gaultier show in Paris to start off his career.

Alborzian began work as a fashion model on the runways of Paris in 1986. Along with Gaultier, he worked for other designers such as  Valentino, Dior & YSL.

He did not achieve wider fame for his work until he landed a three-season campaign for Guess jeans in 1988. This work earned him a great deal of attention, including that of Madonna who handpicked him to be her love interest in the music video for her song "Express Yourself."

He appeared in the 1997 music video for Elton John's Something About the Way  You Look Tonight,  also starring  Kate Moss. In 1998, he ended his career in fashion after he joined fellow models Naomi, Christy and Kate in visiting Nelson Mandela  in South Africa for a charity event to benefit the Mandela Fund.

Alborzian is the author of two books, the first published in Spanish and entitled Ahora es el Momento.
 The second, The Guru in You, is his first book to be published in English. It was published by HarperOne in December 2010
