Laetitia Maria Laure Casta was born on May 11, 1978 in Port-Audemer in Normandy, France.Her childhood was spent in Normandy’s countryside—playing in the rivers and the woods with her older brother.

拉蒂夏·卡斯特于1978年5月11日生于法国诺曼底的PortAudemer。她的童年生活是在诺曼底的乡下度过的——跟她哥哥在河流、森林中嬉戏。

Back then, she was such a tomboy that she was often mistaken for a little boy.

那时候她顽皮得不像个女孩子，所以经常有人将她误认成男孩。

When she was fifteen, Laetitia was discovered while vacationing with her family on a beach in Corsica.

拉蒂夏是在15岁那年被星探发现的，当时她和家人在科西嘉的海滩度假。

She was making sand castles with her little sister when a photographer for Madison Models approached her.He handed her father a business card and an invitation to bring his daughter to Paris for some test shots.

她和妹妹正在堆沙子城堡的时候，一个为麦迪森模特公司工作的摄影师走近了她。他将名片递给拉蒂夏的父亲，并邀请他带拉蒂夏去巴黎试镜。尽管开始拉蒂夏的父母有些半信半疑，但是后来还是架不住拉蒂夏的苦苦哀求，接受了摄影师的邀请。

Suspicious at first, her parents eventually caved to Laetitia’s pleas. Within weeks of her first shoot,she was walking the runway for Jean Paul Gaultier.Having never worn make-up, she screamed when she caught her reflection in the mirror.But anyway, by the time she was sixteen, she had landed three magazine covers.

在她初次露面的前几周里，她在T型台上为Jean paul Gaultier这个牌子展示服装。因为她以前从来没有化过妆，所以当她看到镜子里的自己时，忍不住尖叫了起来。但不管怎么说，到了16岁的时候，拉蒂夏已经成了三份时装杂志的封面女郎。

Until she turned 21, Laetitia lived at home with her parents.Now she shares an apartment in London with her older brother, Jean-Baptistie.Her favorite activities include painting, writing, going to the cinema, go-carting with her brother and dancing to disco music.Proving not to be just a pretty face, Laetitia holds a brown belt in Judo.

拉蒂夏21岁之前都和父母一起生活。现在她和哥哥Jean-Baptiste一起住在伦敦的一家公寓里。她最喜欢的活动包括画画、写作、看电影、和哥哥玩微型赛车以及跟着迪斯科音乐跳舞。为了证明自己不仅只有张漂亮脸蛋，拉蒂夏还是个配有褐带的三段柔道手。
