MELBOURNE beauty Abbey Lee Kershaw might be one of the most popular models in the world, but she is far from conventional.
Kershaw, who is the face of Gucci’s Flora perfume campaign and has walked the catwalk for the top designers in New York, Milan and Paris, has spoken of her unusual pets and love of tattoos and body piercings.
While most leading models have tiny pooches as their easy-to-carry pets, Kershaw’s choice of companion is a lizard.
She has told Times Online that she has a pet lizard called Annie Hall that she takes with her to the pub.
“They only need feeding once a fortnight. And I’m always travelling, so it’s perfect,” Kershaw said.
“If I had a dog, it would drop dead of starvation.”
She also told of her piercings and tattoos.
The high-fashion favourite has tattoos on the palm of her hand, a peace sign on her little finger, two on the side of her stomach and one on the inside of her lip.
She has piercings in her nose, ears, belly and a nipple.
