Glamorous photo shoots and social events usually do not encourage thinking about the eternal. And the stars of the modeling business prefer not to discuss the philosophical issues of being and the divine Spirit. Nevertheless, some girls who have made a good career in show business at some point seriously think about the meaning of life, some decide to devote themselves to God.

Recently it became known about the decision of the famous Spanish actress and model Olalla Oliveros to go to a monastery. This somewhat unexpected decision was made by the 36-year-old fashion model after she visited one of the world centers of Christian pilgrimage - the sanctuary of Our Lady of Fatima in Portugal.

As specified, Olaya has already entered the Catholic Order of St. Michael, but the reasons for the dramatic change in his lifestyle Oliveros prefers not to discuss. Although in an interview with one of the local publications, she said: “The Lord is never wrong. He asked if I would follow him and I could not refuse. She added that at some point she saw herself in monastic attire, and could no longer get rid of this image.

As the agent of the model admits, Oliveros's decision came as a big surprise to him.

Meanwhile, according to the British newspaper The Daily Mail, Oliveros joined the monastic order four years ago, but she decided to tell about her act only now.

The Spanish woman was not the first star of the modeling business to change the catwalk for monastic seclusion. In 2005, the famous Colombian top model Amada Rosa Pérez became a nun. According to her, this decision was prompted by her tiredness "from the world of lies, falsehood and hypocrisy, from a society filled with anti-values and extolling cruelty, adultery, drugs and alcohol." “I want to be a model who demonstrates the real dignity of a woman and does not use it for commercial purposes,” she said.
