Jodi Lee Gordon (born 1 February 1985)is an Australian actrss and model.
Gordon was born in Mackay. From the age of 8, her family moved to various locations along the coast from Mackay, eventually settling in Sydney when she was 11. She played netball from the age of 12 to 16. At the age of 13, Gordon won a modeling competition and gained a contract with Vivien`s Modeling Agency. Her modeling led her to Japan, London and Milan, where she lived for five months. While modeling in London for two months she took the opportunity to travel through Eurpoe recreationally. Since September 2008, Gordon has been the official celebrity ambassador and model for Austalian lingerie brand Crystelle, as well as the official ambassador for Autralian shoe brand Tony Bianco since March 2009. In 2004, while preparing to move to New York, Gordon successfully auditioned for the role of Martha MacKenzie in the long-running Australian soap opera Home and Away. She won a Most Popular New Female Logie award in 2006 and was nominatd for the silver logie for most popular actress in 2009. Gordon was a contestant on the eight season of Dancing with the Stars and was eliminated in the fifth week, on 12 October 2008. On the 28th January, 2010 it was announced that Jodi would leave her role as Martha on Home and Away. Two days later it was confirmed that she had been offered a role in a new drama show on Channel Nine. She filmed her final scenes at the end of February. Her immediate family is composed of her mother Bronwyn, father Ray and older brother Ben. Her father was born in New Zealand and is of Maori descent. On 4 March 2007 her boyfriend of two years, Chris Burkhardt, died from acute myeloid leukemia at the age of 23. In mid 2008, a storyline was introduced into Home and Away, in which Gordon`s character is diagnosed with breast cancer, from which she recovered. In June 2009 Gordon was reportedly discovered by police cowering in a bedroom of an apartment with Mark James Judge, an alleged biker gang member, during an armed response to an alleged attempted break in. No action was taken against Gordon or Judge for making a false report. It was further alleged by some media outlets that Gordon had disclosed to police that cocaine had been consumed on the day of this incident. Judge was later jailed on an unrelated charge. Gordon has apologized for this distress the incident has caused. Following the incident her media profile grew and her movements were often tracked by the journalists and photogrphers, however, despite the attention she began to turn her life around. In Spetember she made her first major public appearance since the incident at a parade for Crystelle lingerie which attracted fans and much publicity, despite the ban on interviews with Jodi. Jodi has been dating Sydney Rosters captain Braith Anasta since November 2009. Biography Credit: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jodi_Gordon |
