At home...

Arena shoot...

Cool You would probably feel differently if you had ever met her, or had dinner sitting next to her, like I once did An incredible experience, further heightened by the fact I had never heard of her prior to this (chance) encounter. I quickly made up for it though

I have an answer for you, though I cannot guarantee you will like it... Yes, she is older than most models (34-35? - though she is not exactly a model), and it shows. But she is hot, in my eyes, because she looks sweet, has regular features bordering on the beyond-gorgeous, has these incredible, and real.. "ahems", and exudes animal magnetism in a very warm and enticing womanly way without a hint of vulgarity (a rare combination which the Pam Andersons and Anna Nicole of this world cannot touch with a mile-long pole). Also, anyone with the following one word assessment (or epitaph, depending) of Tom Cruise, is simply not just a body, or a face (and I quote): "Raro." To come full circle with this little reply, the French have an expression: "beaute de jeunesse" (beauty of youth), and there are saddly many women who do not age well. I don't mean to insult anyone's favorite, but Claudia Schiffer comes to mind... In my humble opinion, a beautiful woman is like a great wine: most wines need to be drunk while they are still young, but great wines, provided they are cared for properly, will not only last much much longer, but also, and perhaps most importantly, truly blossom with maturity.. I believe Sofia Vergara is one such person.

Miscellaneous...

Sorry if this is a repost; I found it on Celebvilla... Thought it was a notch sexier than the usual fare, so here goes:

Must be; look at the belly ring

My all-time top 5 favorite pix: 1. Adriana 2. Adriana 3. Adriana 4. Adriana ... and I could keep on going, but for the sake of diversity: 5. Ilze Bajare (I think)

at one point she was ranked in the top ten, im not sure what the exact number was, but then came in the williams sisters and all the other power hitters and she basically couldnt keep up. she never even won a professional tournament, then she retired because of injurys(so she says) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Highest she was ranked is a very respectable number 8.

She's gorgeous, in my opinion. Does need a little cardio to lose the baby fat though I hope she doesn't implode, tennistically, like Anna Kournikova. I saw her beat Mauresmo (who, in all fairness, was somewhat sluggish that day) at the French Open, and I couldn't take my eyes off her gorgeous face. If I've ever seen anything exemplify "Beauty and the Beast", that match certainly did

Please don't cry? It's not a sin to get/have implants. It certainly does not detract from her talent, charm, or beauty, imho. Celebs like Pam Anderson, and adult fare actresses have gone so overboard with their oversizing, it's turned off a lot of people from the whole notion of implants (in particular, and plastic surgery in general), when in fact, and when done in moderation (and skillfully), it can help one's sense of self-worth tremendously. For instance, I'm rather blind, and wear contacts, or "plastic eyes", if you will, and it's helped boost my confidence (with the ladies) significantly. Ironically, not only can I see better (peripherally), but people seem to see me better too! Granted, contacts are not as intrusive as a surgical procedure (though lasik is certainly next on my list), but it could be construed to be as "fake" as implants. To a certain extent, I am cheating, or being deceitful as to my "true" appearance (I should really be wearing inch-thick glasses). I do appreciate your (apparent) stance on this matter, but perhaps the day you befriend - or fall in love (for the right reasons) with - someone endowed likewise, I believe you'll embrace their point of view. It's mostly a question of perspective, I think, pun unintended By the by, in case y'all didn't know, Mariah also got a nose job (before the implants) - but so far, I've not heard anyone complain about that one

Sorry, but no Without being too indiscreet, I can pinpoint her enhancement to the mid-90s (1996), and to her (then) newfound "best-friendship" with a girl in the industry who had, you guessed it, impressive saline implants, and who highly recommended them to her. This also coincides with her emancipation from Tommy, getting a place downtown, "working" late nights hanging with Puffy et al, starting an affair with Jeter and otherwise taking "Hip-Hop Ho" pointers from the aforementioned to break into (or cross over to, if you prefer) the Hip Hop crowd. OR, I might point simply you towards some pictures In all fairness, she did not go overboard with her implants, and did put on some weight (due to her increased liquor consumption, mostly...), so both assessments are correct.

Hello everyone, Thanks to all who post wonderful pictures here. I'm new here and just spent 6 hours (!) browsing the Adriana threads. I registered to tell you all how impressed I am with the quality and diversity of pictures made available herein. Alas, I've no access to such pictures myself (at least not in HQ), but I will gladly share them as, and if, they become available to me. Again, thanks and bravo to you guys and gals! Balisani
