Career

Modeling

Smith appeared on the cover of the April 2009 issue of Playboy magazine together with Seth Rogen. Her centerfold pictorial was photographed by Stephen Wayda.[1] She was later selected as the 2010 Playmate of the Year.[3] Her PMOY pictorial was in the June 2010 issue of the magazine which included a 3-D fold-out image of her. She has since done runway work, toured for labels such as Versace, hosted Inside Fashion in Canada and appeared as a contestant on The Celebrity Apprentice.

Smith is the host and co-producer for Inside Fashion on television in Canada for the E! channel. Her runway work includes such names as Balenciaga, Robert Rodriguez, Lana Fuchs, Leila Rose, Abaete, Joanna Mastroianni, Rosa Cha, XOXO and Miss Sixty. Other career highlights include a world tour for Versace with visits to Tokyo, Milan, London and New York City, and print campaigns for brands such as Patek Philippe and Elie Saab, among others.[4] Since May 2009, she has been based in Los Angeles.[5]

Television

Smith was a contestant in the spring 2011 edition of Celebrity Apprentice.[6] She won the task as Project Manager in week 7, and won $20,000 for her charity, Best Buddies International. She was fired in week 9, finishing 8th. Of her appearance in the show, she stated: "I went on the show with one goal. Not to leave until I won money for Best Buddies. I chose to play for them because it’s a great cause."[7] Dworaczyk states that despite conflicts regarding her last name (which is difficult to pronounce) with managers and agents who urged her to change it, she refuses, saying, "Having a different last name never felt like me. I'm really happy I kept it."[6]

In 2012, she participated in Fox's dating game show The Choice.[8]

Personal life

Smith was born and raised in Port Lavaca, Texas. She graduated from high school at sixteen and competed in the Miss Texas Teen USA competition shortly thereafter.[9]

On July 25, 2015, Smith married billionaire Robert F. Smith, the founder of Vista Equity Partners.[10] Smith gave birth to the couple's first child, a son named Hendrix Robert Smith, on December 19, 2014.[11] Smith gave birth to their second child, a son named Legend Robert Smith, on March 16, 2016.[12][13]

Smith is an advocate for Best Buddies International.[14]
