Perfect Model: Gorgeous, No Complaints, Made of Pixels

By RUTH LA FERLA

Webbie Tookay has posed in Details, pitched Nokia and joined a band. Not 
bad for a cartoon character.
It's not important that the virtual Webbie Tookay can't really talk to 
anyone. She can still model in Nokia's Latin American ads.
Next Model Management's model card for Vivian Livingston, a Web site creation.

DR. AKI ROSS, the young female protagonist of "Final Fantasy," Columbia 
Pictures' new science- fiction epic, has the sinewy efficiency of Sigourney 
Weaver in "Alien" and the curves of Julia Roberts in "Erin Brockovich." But 
when Aki arrives at the megaplex on July 11, audiences are as likely to be 
struck by the anxious furrows that flit across her brow and the scattering 
of moles on her neck. To be sure, Aki's flaws are minimal; they register 
just enough to render her human.
