Thanks. You found it on one of the Asian Maybelline websites?

Actually, I think what I perceived as hair was the highlight of that palm leaf lol. But yea, I'm not disputing the fact that she gets waxed, I just thought I saw hair. Upon enlarging that picture, though, I'm not so sure after all. I prefer this shoot to much of the lingerie she has done recently. Not because she's nude, but because she looks so fresh and exotic. Nudity is not a problem for me.

Wow, anouk, great find! For some reason it won't display the larger version for me when I click on it. I just get taken to the imageshack main page.

I like the first one better

Looks like those pictures are from the same photo sessions they've been releasing pictures from for a while now. I'm still not a fan of the "styling" in those pictures. Too "lollipopish" for my tastes. Yes, that was a self-invented term

Thanks nothingless. Top notch! These are so oldschool hah

Wow, that's awesome! I've never seen the two pictures on the right before. Can't wait to see them all in HQ (your scans are known to be top-notch)!

^^ I guess it's easy to develop 'princess' attitudes when you're dating a prince She should have married him. Princess Adriana would have been awesome. In all seriousness, though, Adriana's attitude in recent inverviews (aside from GQ) is so far from arrogant it's not even funny. Admin on AFL mentioned that according to her friends, while dating the prince, she was always going out of her way to make him feel comfortable in front of the cameras. Just because she has certain standards for how a man should treat her, doesn't mean she doesn't have certain standards for herself and how she treats her man. Just look at how she sits in the grandstand, supporting Marko at every game even though she's not, to my knowledge, a huge basketball fan. If she was such a princess, I doubt a man would be able to cope with her for very long and most of her relationships have lasted for several years. People who have met her at signings say she is super friendly and down-to-earth, and that's also the vibe I get when I watch her at signings. You can see she takes her time to make eye contact, talk and give out hugs. She doesn't just scribble down her autograph and mechanically move on to the next. People who have worked with her say she has a good personality (see video above). At the Vanity Fair shoot she was the first of the VS angels to arrive (ten minutes early). Someone like Naomi Campbell is known for arriving two hours late for photo shoots because she's a D.I.V.A. I have never heard anyone who knows Adriana complain that she has a bitchy or stuck-up attitude.

Great wallies as usual, nothingless. You might want to check the linking on the first two though. Seems to have been swapped.

I posted the downloadable on the previous page

Of course. Everyone has their masks, even off camera. But I'll need evidence that she's a "bad person" before my perception of her changes for the negative. I don't just go around and assume the worst about people. I'm usually pretty good at telling whether people are putting up a facade or just being themselves, and given the sheer amount of Adriana footage and interviews I've watched over the years, it's almost impossible for me not to have a caught a few glimpses of the "person behind the person". In Adriana's case there seems to be consistency between those persons. She doesn't strike me as pretentious, and this is seconded by the people who have met her at signings and who describe her as very down-to-earth. Is one transcribed interview going to change that? Hell naw. Now, when a model starts beating up her assistants on a consistent basis (*cough* Naomi *cough*), that's when you might start to question the decency of her person... What about this: How does that fit the description of someone who thinks the world revolves around them? Would such a person give a damn about the waiter or the coat-check girl? Doesn't sound very self-centered to be honest. So what she wants to be treated nicely when she's ill. I'm sure she treats her boyfriend the same way when he's ill, but this interview wasn't about that, it was about her and what she looks for in a guy. If you can watch the video above and still believe she's NOT a sweet girl, then you've already made up your mind based on negative prejudice. Good for you.

You shouldn't read too much into a transcribed interview. She could be smiling and laughing with a gleam in her eye while she said that. This puts things into perspective and serves as a pretty good reply to your comment :

It's for Georges Rech

here you go

old but rare

yea, saw that video on AFL. Gotta love how Ale squirts Miranda right in THE FACE.

thank you jal

hehe indeed. She said first time was separate rooms though. That doesn't mean second time is necessarily same bed. Could be same room, separate beds. Your bed in one end of the room, hers in the other. Then with each time you get to move your own bed a little closer to hers until finally the gap bridges and kinky sex ensues

"For the first time"? I thought sleeping together "is for after marriage" and not for the second or third time.

I think it's a very tasteful shoot too. You have to take into consideration that the photographers who shot this are big names in the fashion industry and usually shoot for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. If you're a model and is extended the offer to do a nude shoot with those photographers, you might be more inclined accept than if it was just some no-name with zero credentials. You know what I mean? I'll say you have a certain guarantee that the result is going to be tasteful and artful when names like Inez van Lamsweerdea and Vinoodh Matadin are behind the camera. That's probably one of the main reasons she did it. It's a known fact that editorial work like this hardly pays anything at all nowadays so I doubt she did it for the money (I'm not sure she even took payment for it). She most likely did it because she's an admirer of Inez and Vinoodh' work and because working with them is a cool credential to have as a model. Of course it's good exposure too, but she's not an unknown model who desperately needs exposure And it's not like she hasn't done a full nudity shoot before. Hell, she did one recently for Vanity Fair together with the other VS angels. Frankly I think this shoot is much more tasteful and artistic than the Vanity Fair shoot.

Holy shit she's looking GORGEOUS. I think these might just be some of my favorite candids of her ever. :drool:

yea, GQ UK (with Adriana, Alessandra, Karolina and Heidi) should be out in June/July methinks
