Coco Rocha: The Bouncy Teen Canadian Supermodel

Aside from her rising career in the fashion world, the 19-year old Canadian Teen Supermodel Coco Rocha is also known for her signature bouncy, confident gait.

Teen Supermodel Coco Rocha was scouted at 14 during a Highland dancing event in Vancouver. Guess who singled her out for modeling career? The controversial but undeniably one of the most successful and beautiful supermodel to date – Naomi Campbell.

Naomi Campbell told the young Coco Rocha "I like your walk." And it was the beginning of a phenomenal supermodel career for the raven-tressed beauty of angular features and pale complexion.

Nearly six-foot, Coco Rocha's bouncy, confident gait becomes her signature as a model, just as Gisele Bündchen is known for her hair or Kate Moss for her personal style.

As a teen model, Coco Rocha has already landed the covers of Italian Vogue and American Vogue, whom she was named as one of the Top 10 models of 2007.

Aside from being a sensational covergirl, Coco Rocha was also featured in countless editorial spreads and runway shows, including Highland dancing in full regalia for Jean-Paul Gaultier.

Coco Rocha believes that being featured in Gaultier has helped her career. Needless to say, Coco Rocha is also a wonderful dancer. "I hear comments like, ‘Oh, it's a dancer. Oh, it's Coco!' It's good to be able to show I'm not just a model who knows how to walk in heels."

Today, the teen supermodel Coco Rocha already owns a Manhattan pied-à-terre, and a luxurious Blackberry cellphone which only a few teen like her can afford. She had been in recent fashion weeks in London and New York.

As she visits her nativeland for the L'Oréal Fashion Week, the bouncy teen Canadian supermodel Coco Rocha just want to keep things light. "It's important. Its nice to come home and - I don't want to say ‘be a celebrity' - but be able to say Canadian girls make it out there."
