In June 2009, Segura was ranked No.6 in MODELS.com's Top Icons Men, alongside male models Mathias Lauridsen, Tyson Ballou and Mark Vanderloo. Segura started his modeling career after he finished high school, signing a contract with Group Model Management, a Spanish modeling agency. But the beginning of his career was filled with rejections, a buzzed haircut and a muscular body did not seem to be the ideal image that the European market demands. When Segura went to Milan, almost every agent thought that he was too big and goofy. His fortunes changed when Natalie Kates, an agent from New York City-based Q Model Management opened the door for him in 2001, despite his inability to speak English. Kates started him off fresh with four new polariods in his book and sent him to meet people. One of the people was photographer Matt Albiani, who loved Andres for an editorial that he was working on. The next day Andres found himself on the set of a shoot in East Hampton, New York. After just a few days in the city, he caught the eyes of some of the industry's most famous photographers, including Michael Thompson and Francois Nars. Andres Segura has been dating Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue since July 2008.He bears his mother's name Lucia tattooed on the left side of his chest. On April 2009, it was reported he got inked with the singer's name Kylie just below his hip, a sign of his devotion to her. Nude pictures of him have been released on the internet. |
