A few nights ago at the Almay Rainforest Fund Benefit was Kate Hudson’s first public outing after being announced as the face of Almay cosmetics. But she wasn’t the only pretty blonde in attendance. Australian model and host of Project Runway Australia, Kristy Hinze was there and revealed a secret love for guitars. She told Modelinia that she has 10 guitars at home, but couldn’t resist adding the three guitars up for auction more to her collection. They weren’t just any guitars, they were auctioned by Bruce Springsteen, Keith Richards, and Sting. The coup set her back a total of $170,000 which goes to charity – but helps that her husband is billionaire (and the man who founded Netscape) Jim Clarke. [Modelinia]
