You will see some of his modeling photos from his prime where there is a reason he was named the top model in Finland and named to Vogue's top 100 models worldwide, etc.

This is a copy and paste from Vogue where he is listed as the #15 male model ever, and would have been top 10, but he quit modeling in his prime:


NATIONALITY: American

HEIGHT: 6 ft 3 inches

PERSONAL: Brett Salisbury was a highly recruited college quarterback and played overseas professionally with the Helsinki Giants. He was a great three sport athlete, football, basketball and baseball and received a full football scholarship to Brigham Young University out of high school (BYU). (An All American defensive back and quarterback in high school). Brett grew up in Escondido, California and is the author of the best selling book The Transform Diet.

MODELING CAREER: After Salisbury's arrival to Helsinki in 1994 to play Quarterback, he was asked to travel to Milan where his career took off. From Armani to Laura Biagiotti he has modeled for the top designers and photographers in the world.

Brett worked as a special bookings model for 5 years and was not asked to go to a single casting call while living in scandinavia. Sallisbury played a rookie lifeguard for the summer of 1997 on Baywatch and modeled for the Michael Jackson 's smooth criminal Video.

With over 500 print and runway jobs on Salisbury's resume, an interview in the spring of 2002 on modelwatch senior editor Jed Medina titled it, " Brett Salisbury , The tale of a Male Supermodel."

Salisbury retired professionally from modeling in 2002 even though world famous booker Laila Snellman says, Brett was becoming a "national celebrity" as he had just been chosen the country of Finlands sexiest male, then at the peak of his career he unexpectedly decided to move back to the United States, a decision we still regret to this day as he was the most photographed and requested special bookings male model in scandinavian history who filled the room with his humility and charisma."

VOGUE: "Salisbury's biggest criticism: Leaving the modeling world too soon in France, Milan and Scandinavia to pursue a career in football and as a nutritionist in the United States. Salisbury ended up the 15th greatest male model ever but probably finishes in our top 10 if he stays in the business.
