Murphy was born in Fort Walton Beach , Florida , and grew up throughout Northwest Florida, spending most of her childhood in a trailer park in Panama City, Florida . At the age of 16, she was spotted by Mary Lou Nash, owner and operator of Mary Lou's Models, a modeling agency . Nash saw Murphy's potential and soon she was modeling in local ads and magazines throughout Florida and Alabama . After she graduated from Choctawhatchee Senior High School , Murphy moved to Milan to further her modeling career. Her career kicked into high-gear when she bleached her hair platinum blonde for a photo shoot, ruining her hair and causing it to fall out. Because of this she had to get a short hair cut which made her popular with many top photographers and soon she was in major magazines such as Harper's Bazaar and Vogue and was named VH1 /Vogue's "Model of the Year" at the 1998 Fashion Awards. Murphy is featured on the cover of the 2005 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue , as well as the 1999 cover of Vogue' s "Models of the Millennium." She has also posed for the 2002 Playboy calendar. She is currently the face of Estée Lauder , replacing Elizabeth Hurley as the company's primary female spokesmodel .
