Ana was born in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil and after going through an awkward growth phase where she shot up all the way to 6’1” she began to develop. Apparently she developed quickly, as she was married to Alexander Correa at just sixteen years of age.
Being incredibly tall, Ana stayed away from the seductive world of women’s basketball and instead chose the less glamorous lifestyle of modeling. She quickly became a hit on the runways. Not all legs, the model proved to have a knack for business, as she started her own clothing and cosmetic lines, as well as hosting the Brazilian television show “Hoje em Dia,” which is the equivalent of “Good Morning America” if Katie Couric was ridiculously hot and scantily clad.
In 2002 Ana was given the title of “Model with the longest legs,” by the Guiness Book of World Records, proving she was so attractive Guiness Book employees made up a category in an attempt to meet her. The year after Guiness Book ceased to list this title. Ana continues to model and operate her business, but has yet to make the leap into the American mainstream.
