From
1989 to 1995, Crawford was host of MTV's House
of Style. In 1992, roadside posters of her had
to be removed in Norway when authorities noticed
a 300% increase in the accident rate as motorists
were distracted by them. In 1995 Crawford took
her first movie role in Fair Game. Her performance
was dismissed by critics, and the greenlighting
of a $50 million film on the assumption that she
would be a good actress was described in the magazine
Total Film in 2004 as the 7th "dumbest decision
in movie history". Fair Game took $11 million
at the box office.

Crawford is just
over 5 feet 9 inches tall and has a slim, well-toned
figure. She was the first modern supermodel to
pose for Playboy magazine. She was ranked number
5 on Playboy's list of the 100 Sexiest Stars of
the 20th century. She has been featured on the
cover of more than 600 magazines worldwide including
Vogue, W, People, Harper's Bazaar, ELLE and Allure.
A 1997 Shape magazine survey of 4,000 picked her
as the second (after Demi Moore) most beautiful
woman in the world.
Crawford is now happy in her
second marriage to Randy Gerber (club owner) with
two young children, Presely & Kaia. Crawford's
first marriage to actor Richard Gere lasted from
1991 to 1995. It was heavily rumoured that the
marriage was a cover for their mutual homosexuality,
but this was denied by both. Gere has also since
become a father. During their marriage, the rumors
had been further fueled (and mocked) by Crawford
when she appeared on a magazine cover in a semi-provocative
pose with the popular and openly homosexual singer
k.d. lang. In contrast, one of Crawford's last
covers was an issue of "W" featuring
a black-and-white nude of her very-pregnant profile,
echoing a similar color cover photo years earlier
by Demi Moore in a different magazine..
