BEFORE MAKING IT BIG IN HOLLYWOOD, THESE STARS WERE ALREADY IN STYLE
Model BEHAVIOR

TOM SELLECK

"I did commercials and jobs to still-photography pay the rent. But in those days, being known as a male model didn't help your career," Tom said of life before Magnum, P.I."I did a Salem billboard for about 500 bucks, and forever since I've been called the Marlboro Man!"

CANDICE BERGEN

"I modeled summers while I was in college. I didn't do it enough to grow to hate it," said the Murphy Brown star, whose dad warned about its pitfalls. "He said beautiful women commit suicide so l should develop my interests. It was a little dramatic."

PAM DAWBER

Before Mork & Mindy, Pam had na-no problem posing for makeup ads. "At the beginning, I loved modeling. It opened up the doors of the world. [But] it was a dead end. Models come and go."
