Fortune’s Face

Marc Robinson is back in the city after a hectic schedule in Bangalore over the last few weeks. This model-turned-choreographer-turned-actor, who is also a Channel V veejay, was busy organising three fashion shows in the garden city — one for Kingfisher, another for the Gold Council and a charity show to raise funds for Kargil. And before that, Marc was in Mauritius shooting for a Gold Flake campaign with Sushma Reddy and Helen Brodie. Wow, that’s what we call a busy man.

Although, he has worked with the most beautiful women in the industry, Marc doesn’t feel there’s one face that stands out. Though, he admits, as a young boy he had a crush on Zeenat Aman. "She is sexy and has such a wonderful face. I am more of a face person than a body person. I like women with pretty faces." And when it comes to men, Marc does not think there are any new faces that are even worth talking about. "Indian women definitely have an edge over men. They are far more presentable and chic. The new male models lack style andattitude. They are just fashion victims." But on the international scene, there are two faces that Marc really believes have style, class and attitude — Tom Cruise and his wife, Nicole Kidman both of whom featured on the Newsweek cover last week. "Tom is just delicious and Nicole has such poise."
