Okay, get it straight from the beginning: It's LAW-ra, not LARR-a, not Lara Croft the tomb raider but Laura Croft the raven-haired Floridian. Of course, the 25-year-old model did dress as the fictional adventurer and archaeologist of video-game and movie fame for a gamers' convention -- avoiding all connections would be impossible. "In high school all the boys would call and say, 'Come on, Laura Croft. I'll play with you,'" she says, "or 'Laura Croft has big boobs.' I had to keep changing my number." Laura admits she has gamed as her near-homonym -- "I like to run Lara into walls and hear her make those funny noises" -- but she has "never watched the movies and never will." Indeed, when you're as lovely as Laura, you don't really need to take notes from Angelina Jolie.
