Tanit Phoenix Biography
Tanit Phoenix, who is of Irish and Dutch descent, was born on the 24th of September 1980 in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. This stunning woman was interested in extra-curricular stuff from an early age. That is why she began training in ballet when she was just 5 years old. As someone who persists in what she does, the woman danced for fifteen years before saying goodbye to the art. By the time she had done that, she was already modelling. Tanit doesn’t talk about her parents or her siblings in public, and we respect that.
The modelling career of Tanit Phoenix
This South African lady was discovered as a fourteen-year-old by a modelling scout in her hometown. She wasn’t a stranger to being an artist, and she saw modelling as another way to express herself. This beauty got numerous opportunities to work with some of the biggest names in the industry, and in all the years that she was a leading model, she worked with some of the best names you can think of. Featuring on the cover of Sports Illustrated had to be one of the top highlights of her career. Tanit knew that her days as a model at the podium were nearly ending. That’s when she made the switch to becoming other things.
Tanit Phoenix – The Actor, The Artist!
We’ve got to give it to this lady because she knows a good exit and takes it when she sees one. Upon deciding to become an actor, she began seeking out roles. And they did come to her. 2005 was a big year in her acting career. One of the best things to happen to her was that she got to play a role in the Nicolas Cage starrer Lord of War. However, this girl’s acting career was far from what she had hoped it was going to be. That’s when she decided that she’s become a makeup artist. This was in 2013, and she does that job to this day. A multi-faceted woman, Tanit is more than capable of fending for herself if it gets down to that. But there’s more to life than that, isn’t there?
Tanit Phoenix and Sharlto Copley’s relationship
Although she has had everything she wanted in life, Tanit knew that her life wouldn’t be complete without a man in it. When Sharlto tried to woo her, she allowed him to do just that.
