Piers Morgan on meeting Christy Turlingon:
When I interviewed Cindy Crawford for GQ, she told me that she thought the greatest supermodel of them all was Christy Turlington.
Today, I got to meet Christy for myself and see why.
It’s a fascinating experience encountering famous sex symbols in the flesh, as I’m fortunate enough to do quite often in my job.
Many (the gentleman in me prevents me from giving names) are bitterly disappointing – their faces desecrated by years of totally unnecessary plastic surgery.
Others, the ones who’ve resisted the knife, are sometimes even better than you imagine close up – Princess Diana was startlingly so, as was Eva Longoria recently.
And Cindy herself was almost breathtakingly beautiful.
I can now add Christy to that list.
She sat opposite me in my New York CNN studio this afternoon with almost flawless radiant skin (a few telltale laughter lines prove the lack of a surgeon’s aid), piercing green eyes and those immortal cheekbones still as naturally sculpted as ever.
She was funny, intelligent, warm and interesting.
And when she left, Christy glided her 5ft 10in frame out of the door with the effortless ease of a gazelle strolling across a prairie.
I’ve now met all the most famous supermodels – Cindy, Naomi, Kate, Claudia and Linda.
And they’re all, in their own way, dazzling.
But I can see why Cindy says Christy’s No 1. She was as close to female physical perfection as you can get.
