The former fashion model, who played Mary Magdelene in MEL GIBSON's The Passion of the Christ, bares all in a sizzling shower scene. L'Uomo Che Ama, which translates to The Man Who Loves, tells the tale of a fortysomething fella who suffers at the hands of his complex relationships. PIERFRANCESCO FAVINO, who has struck mainstream success alongside BEN STILLER in Night at the Museum and TOM HANKS in Angels & Demons, also stars in the movie. Hmm, I wonder if showering with Monica Bellucci would give one wet dreams! Edited February 13, 2009 by schumibabe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schumibabe 0 Report post Posted April 21, 2009 http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/beauty/yay-...p-it-up-446538/ Yay! French Elle's amazing no-makeup issue (and why American mags need to step it up) by Jennifer Romolini, Shine staff, on Tue Apr 14, 2009 1:50pm PDT 1042 The April issue of French Elle features eight female European celebrities--including Eva Herzigova, Monica Bellucci, Sophie Marceau, and Charlotte Rampling--all without makeup and, perhaps even more revealing, all entirely without Photoshopping or retouching of any kind. The mag's headline "Stars Sans Fards" translates to “without rouge/makeup,” but it's a French saying that also suggests a sense of “openness.” Judging from the images that have been leaked so far (the entire issue hits newsstands later this week), this title could not be more apt. Model Herzigova, 36, and actresses Marceau, 42, and Bellucci, 44, all look refreshingly natural, relaxed, and vulnerable in a way American stars are seldom seen. In fact, what might be most striking about French Elle's pictorial is how it actually appears to embrace and celebrate the organic beauty of these famous faces (even if the lighting is super, super flattering and the women are all unbelievably gorgeous to begin with). In the U.S., when you come across a "stars without makeup" story, there's always a GOTCHA! element, a message that says "Our gift to you: Derive pleasure from how ugly this person looks without cover-up for her zits!" If you think about it, even our celebration of "natural beauty" is often far from natural. Consider the air-brushing scandal that surrounded last year's Dove ads, or the countless "normal" celebs who are heralded for their curves but then, when they're featured in a magazine, are digitally whittled down so they appear several sizes slimmer. We're a curvy country that can't handle looking at curvy people. It's all kind of sad. And, honestly, French Elle's April '09 issue is not the first time our women's mags have been out-classed by the Europeans. Last year--in protest of the serious lack of diversity on catwalks, ads and in women's magazines--Italian Vogue published an all-black issue featuring models of color from around the world. It sold out in days. So American magazine editors, I plead to you: It's time to step up your game. American readers would like to see some real, healthy women who actually look like themselves. Please stop with the whole Frankenstein thing: We know you attach your cover models' heads to skinnier bodies. We know you slim down their thighs and their noses and you lighten their skin. We know you smooth out all of the facial "imperfections" that make them look human. We're tired of fembots. We can handle the truth. Seriously, the next time you're shooting Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry, Aniston, SJP, Alba, or basically anyone we've seen you airbrush into a complete, unrecognizable freak; pause, take a deep breath, and ask yourself, "Would this person look more beautiful and relatable without all this fake garbage?" We're guessing the answer will always be "Yes." I wouldn't imagine any man (and probably not a lot of women!) would object to seeing that on the other side of the bed every morning!! She really is gorgeous. Girl crush! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoyaheel 1,874 Report post Posted March 27, 2010 did they photoshop her face??? she looks funky.She looks like Shannen Doherty in that cover! Maybe it's her pregnancy face? Don't a lot of women's facial features change some during pregnancy? (not just rounder from the weight gain, but actually changing features?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hihomumio 168 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 If you look at previous pics of her, she seems to look different whenever her hairstyle changes. It's so strange, I don't think I've ever seen anyone else with such "chameleon" looks as she has. Still gorgeous though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
