Denise Lorraine Keller ! A Singaporean model and a host for MTV Asia.

Denise Lorraine Keller is a Singaporean model and a host for MTV Asia. She was born in Singapore on March 24, 1982. She is of Eurasian ancestry, her father is German and her mother Chinese. She was educated at the German International School in Singapore and has one older sister, Nadine Keller.





At age 13, she was discovered in a shopping mall by a modeling scout and soon signed with a modeling agency.

Keller became Singapore's representative in Ford's Supermodel of the World finals in 2000, for which she won the title. Throughout her modeling career, she has been the face of countless TV and print commercial campaigns. Among the various TV shows she has hosted was the Ford Supermodel Singapore Finals in 2001.

By 2002, she had modeled everywhere from New York City to Hong Kong to Tokyo. And in that year, she got her biggest break yet when she was selected to be the female VJ for MTV Asia. She has hosted the past two MTV Asia awards and has interviewed rock, pop, and hip hop superstars from all around the world.

In 2005 Denise Keller took part in Singapore's second English language reality dating program Eye for a Guy 2. In this program several eligible bachelors pursued the affections of Ms. Keller in this "Bachelorette"-style program. While well received by critics and its viewers, Eye for a Guy 2 was plagued by low viewership throughout most of its run. This only changed during the final two episodes when Ms. Keller made her choice among the final two suitors, Howard Shan Lo and Wolfgang Gorny. Even then, the final episodes were dogged by controversy regarding 'leaked' photographs of Denise Keller and Wolfgang Gorny together in Bali. Detractors of the series accused these 'leaked' photos to be nothing more than a ploy to increase viewership of the series. Eye for a Guy 2 ended with Denise Keller choosing Wolfgang Gorny as the man who won her affections. Despite the low viewership of the series, Denise Keller was lauded as being a superior and more compelling bachlorette when compared to the first series' bachelorette, Rachel Lee.

Howard Lo was rumored to be tapped for the lead in an Eye for a Girl series but later denied these claims. To date there has been no Eye for a Girl series shown.

In September 2006, Keller and Dick Lee hosted a luxury lifestyle program shown in Singapore, entitled The Finer Side. This program featured the two hosts as they toured the glitzy and opulent side of Singapore and also featured candid chats with the city's rich, famous and powerful citizens regarding the extravagant lifestyles they lead.

Also in September 2006, Keller took a two-month sabbatical break in order to study theater arts at the Lee Strasberg Theater Institute in New York City. Prior to this she traveled to New York City to cover the MTV Video Music Awards for MTV Asia.

Denise Keller is currently working as a VJ for MTV Asia.

In 2007 Keller served as Mastercard's Fashion Ambassador for the Singapore Fashion Festival. She interviewed some of the world's top models and fashion designers in this capacity. She repriced this role in the 2008 Singapore Fashion Festival. Keller was the star of Mastercard's 'Priceless' campaign in Asia Pacific. Also in autumn 2007, Keller was a spokesperson for Hong Kong's Luxury week.

In 2008, Keller was filmed as the host of Discovery Travel & Living's new series Passage to Malaysia
