Every model needs good neighbours

When Kylie Minogue spotted her male model friend Benjamin Hart looking smouldering in a Valentino campaign, she knew exactly what to do. The pair were on holiday in Australia a few weeks later and the singer decided to introduce the model to her old friends at Grundy television, the producers of Neighbours. "Grundy thought he was a gorgeous man with a very bright future and they created a special role for him as the hunky handyman, a bit like Jesse Metcalfe's character in Desperate Housewives," says a representative from Storm Models. Having worked with Madonna and appeared in shoots for Coca Cola and GQ magazine, Hart wants to continue modelling but is very excited to be branching out into the acting world, too.
