Allegra Coleman
Supermodel and actress Allegra Coleman was featured on the cover of Esquire magazine in 1996 and was called “Hollywood’s next dream girl.” Agents quickly scrambled to find her to book her for jobs, but there was one problem: she wasn’t real. The whole thing was a hoax by the author of the article, Martha Sherrill. The woman posing as Coleman on the cover was Ali Larter, who ended up landing many gigs after the stunt.
