Here's What Cindy Crawford's Dad Thought Modelling Was All About!

Cindy Crawford is opening up about the early days before kick-starting her modeling career.

It turns out, even with her fashion reign, she had to win over an unexpected critic — her dad John Crawford. In a thrilling docu-series on Apple TV+ aptly titled "The Super Models," the TV icon detailed juicy details of how her incredible journey took flight.

PEOPLE was granted an exclusive glimpse into the upcoming four-part series, where Crawford recounts her journey from a small town in Illinois to the dazzling runways of New York and Milan.

"I never even thought about modeling," the actress confessed in the brief 25-second clip, which kicked off with a photo of the supermodel from the 1980s, marking the early days of her journey.

Perched in a white director's chair, sporting a relaxed ensemble of a black dress paired with a matching leather jacket, "The Hospital in the Sky" narrator stated, "I didn't even know it was a real job. I didn't know how I would get from DeKalb, Illinois, to a magazine."

As the scene transitioned to footage of Crawford engaged in commercial work during the '80s, she recalled her father's misconception about modeling and what happened at her first assignment. The "Bad Blood" video vixen described the memory saying:

"My dad really didn't understand that modeling was a real career. He thought modeling was like another name for prostitution. So they came with me to my very first modeling appointment."

Described in a press release, the series covers the evolution of the fashion industry and the shifting roles of women within it. The statement explained that the show "is the ultimate story of power and how four women came together to claim it, paving the way for those to follow." 

It further emphasized, "Already forces in their own right, the gravitas they achieved by coming together transcended the industry itself." This statement highlighted that their prestige was so formidable that they became "as prominent as the designers who styled them."

It noted that even "today, the four supermodels remain on the frontlines of culture through activism, philanthropy, and business prowess." The famous women take on roles as executive producers for the series.

They are joined by notable figures like Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, Sara Bernstein, Justin Wilkes, Barbara Kopple, Roger Ross Williams, and Geoff Martz. Since Crawford's days as a force to reckon with in the modeling world, she has also gone on to be successful behind the flashing lights of the camera. 

In May, The Blast reported that Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber commemorated a quarter-century of wedded bliss. They shared nostalgic snapshots from their enchanting wedding day back in 1998, which was set against the backdrop of the Ocean Club in Nassau.

The ceremony boasted a picturesque beach setting, lively tunes from the Baha Men, and opulent floral arrangements that added an extra touch of magic. One of the cherished photos captured a close-up of the beaming newlyweds, while another featured the couple in a graceful dance against the backdrop of a picturesque beach.

An aerial shot also beautifully framed the bride and groom, encircled by their jubilant guests, in a moment of pure celebration. The photo collection also immortalized significant moments from their special day, including Crawford and Gerber's tender cake-cutting moment. 

The final memory, a timeless sepia-toned image, featured the duo dancing barefoot. The businessman wore a casually untucked white dress shirt. At the same time, the "Friends: The Reunion" star looked radiant in an off-the-rack white lace Galliano minidress adorned with a Valentino shawl.

Accompanying the enchanting images, the "Lip Sync Battle" guest star shared a heartfelt caption, reminiscing, "25 years ago today, Rande and I exchanged vows at the Ocean Club in the Bahamas." 

She continued, "It was a picture-perfect wedding all captured by @arthurelgort. We spent a beautiful weekend surrounded by family and friends celebrating our love for each other. I would do it all over again in a second."
