Zoolander is the most beautiful creature in the world and nearly as good looking as he thinks he is. With the face of an angel, the locks of a god and the brain of a single cell ameoba, Zoolander is the most famous face in the world; winning the 'Male Model of the Year' award 3 years running. And he knows he's a shoo-in this year. But a hot new contender has just hit the catwalks - Hansel. One name, no brain. Now this pair of vain, vacuous airheads are about to contend fashion world's most catty contest - the 'catwalk-off'. Someone is going to get his hair messed up. But before the gel has time to set, a crazed fashion designer hatches a plot to brainwash Zoolander into committing a crime more heinous than bad fashion sense.
