Carla Bruni Tedeschi (born Turin, Italy, 23 December, 1968), is an Italian supermodel, songwriter and singer. She is the sister of Valeria Bruni Tedeschi.

Biography

Heiress to an Italian tyre manufacturing fortune, Bruni had no need to work, but by 1988 was among the 20 highest-paid fashion models, earning $7.5 million a year. She grew up in France from the age of five, and later attended boarding school in Switzerland. She eventually returned to Paris to study art and architecture, but left school at 19 to become a model full-time.

While modelling, Bruni became a tabloid staple by dating rock stars Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton; tycoon Donald Trump; lawyer Arno Klarsfeld; and actors Kevin Costner and Vincent Perez. She is married to Raphaël Enthoven, who had been married to novelist Justine Lévy.

In 1998 Bruni quit the world of fashion, and has since devoted herself to chanson. In 2002 her debut album Quelqu'un m'a dit, produced by Louis Bertignac, was released in Europe to great success^{[citation needed]}. Her second album, No Promises, was released in January 2007.
