Eva Herzigova proudly shows off her pregnancy curves
Luffy | Tuesday, March 01, 2011 |
She leaped to fame in the Nineties as the curvy face and body of the Wonderbra billboards.
And despite being more well-known for her slimmer frame in recent years, Eva Herzigova is revelling in her pregnancy curves.
The Czech supermodel, 37, looks glowing as she shows off her baby bump in a stunning new photoshoot for glossy magazine Harper's Bazaar.
Oh baby! Czech supermodel Eva Herzigova shows off her baby bump in a fitted black dress in a new photoshoot for the April issue of Harper's Bazaar magazine
Hippy chick: Eva said her pregnancy has done wonders for her complexion
The model, who is seven months pregnant with her second child with businessman partner Gregorio Marsiaj, posed for the publication's April issue.
And despite being heavily pregnant, Eva looks stunning as ever as she models the latest designs from Lanvin, Christian Dior and Chanel.
Reflecting on her changing body over the years, Eva is enjoying having her curves back.
Not too posh to push: Eva is hoping to have a natural birth when her second child arrives in April
Being pregnant is less about being sexy than being sensual': Eva is loving her pregnancy curves
She tells the magazine: 'Being pregnant is less about being sexy than being sensual. You feel very feminine. There are all these special hormonal enhancements.
'You really blossom, especially in the first three months: my skin and my hair were in great condition; my breasts were like "wow"; it was like I’d had a facelift and breast-enhancement surgery.
'It’s amazing refinding the body that you used to have in your 20s.'
Eva is taking a natural approach to the birth and is looking forward to having a sibling for her three-year-old son George.
She admitted she was horrified by some of her celebrity contemporaries who arranged elective Caesareans.
She told the magazine: 'I wanted to give birth naturally at nine months.
'I’ve heard some women book delivery by Caesarean early before their due date. I think a lot do it because of the fear of pain.'
Eva announced she was pregnant last October.
At the time, she said: 'Our son George is being really sweet, asking all different questions about the baby and talking to my belly. Gregorio and I are thrilled with the wonderful news.'

Courteney Cox showed off her stunning figure
Luffy | Saturday, October 17, 2009 |
Courteney Cox showed off her stunning figure when she stripped off on the beach for her new TV show.
The former Friends star wore a revealing white bikini, as she filmed scenes for comedy series Cougar Town.
Looking younger than her 45 years, the actress' toned body turned heads as she splashed in the sea on the Will Rogers State Beach in Malibu, California.
Making a splash: Courteney Cox films scenes for her new series Cougar Town on the beach in Malibu
After filming the revealing scenes modest Cox covered up her bikini body in a stripey towel.
She then changed into a red maxi dress to cuddle five-year-old daughter Coco, who was on set to watch her mum.
Cougar Town, which started in the U.S. last month, stars Cox as divorced single mother Jules Cobb.
Beach body: Courteney showed off her fabulous figure in a skimpy white bikini
The ABC sitcom sees Jules searching for love in a small Florida town, as she tries to get back into the dating scene.
Finding all single men her own age are 'broken, gay or chasing young girls', Jules decides to date younger men.
'Cougar' is an expression which refers to an older woman looking for a toyboy.
Covering up: Courteney wrapped herself in a towel despite the scorching California sun
However, Cox is far from the stereotype of an unattractive, desperate woman.
Critics have given the series mixed review, with many questioning Cox's suitability as a 'cougar'.
However Cox has revealed that she prefers her new role to the character of Monica in Friends.
She told the LA Times: 'I hope this show is a huge hit and that people love it. Because I like playing this character more than any character I've ever played.

Bond girl Olga Kurylenko new Campari face for 2010 calendar
Luffy | Saturday, October 10, 2009 |
As a Bond girl, she's not easily shaken or stirred.
Which means Olga Kurylenko is perfectly unruffled about following in the footsteps of a host of Hollywood A-listers as the new face of Campari.
The 29-year-old Ukrainian actress has been chosen as the drink's latest calendar girl, taking on a role previously held by Jessica Alba, Salma Hayek and Eva Mendes to name but a few.
Toast of the town: Bond girl Olga Kurylenko will take over from Jessica Alba as the new Campari girl for 2010
Olga, who will take over in 2010 from Alba, this year's Campari Girl, shot the Italian brand's 11th calendar, dubbed Campari Milano, in Milan.
Her predecessors may be much better known but there is no doubting her model looks will live up to the brand's sophisticated image.
'Olga was a natural choice,' said Campari chief executive Bob Kunze-Concewitz.
'[She has] great charm, grace, elegance and sensuality that represents the perfect incarnation of the Campari brand.'
Temptation: Olga Kurylenko in the Campari calendar. She gained an international audience as Bond Girl Camille in Quantum of Solace
Airbrushed? Me? The 29-year-old actress looks like an animated computer character in this shot for the Campari 2010 calendar
In the retro-themed shoot, Olga, who came to international prominence as Camille in the most recent James Bond film Quantum of Solace, poses confidently clutching a bottle of Campari in an old train carriage.
Beautiful onlookers gawp at her through the windows.
In another, just like Jessica Alba's campaign, she looks airbrushed within an inch of her life in a black leather top and black trousers.
'It was a truly unique experience,' she said.
'I was delighted and intrigued by Campari’s proposal: to play the Campari woman and interpret the essence of Red Passion.'
In keeping with its experimental approach to the arts, Campari chose the young up-and-coming Italian photographer Simone Nervi to immortalise Kurylenko.
The drinks are on me: Olga, who stars in Campari's 11th calendar shot in Milan, said: 'It was a truly unique experience.
It takes two to tango: Olga, here for Campari, appeared naked for the Ukranian edition of lads magazine Maxim

Blake Lively in new film The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee
Luffy | Saturday, October 10, 2009 |
Blake Lively may play a wildchild in Gossip Girl, but even her character Serena Van Der Woodsen would baulk at some of these raunchy scenes.
In stills released from her little seen film, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, the 22-year-old actress plays troubled teenager Pippa, who runs away from home and is introduced to a world of bondage and drugs by her lesbian aunt.
Pippa ends up acting in lesbian bondage films and developing a taste for drugs before she is rescued by the much older publisher Herb Lee, played by Alan Arkin.
Spanks for the memories: Blake Lively meets a dominatrix in new film The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee
The film is directed by Daniel Day Lewis's wife Rebecca Miller, who also wrote the book the movie is adapted from.
While most of the film centres on the 50-year-old Pippa Lee, played by Robin Wright Penn, Blake stars as the younger Pippa in the flashback scenes.
The elder Pippa is the epitome of a perfect wife and mother and finds her life unravelling when she moves with her husband to a retirement community.
She finds herself drawn to handsome neighbour Chris, played by Keanu Reeves.
Her friends have no idea of Pippa's crazy teen years and her tumultuous childhood.
The young Pippa runs away from home after finally tiring of violent clashes with her bipolar mother Suky (Maria Bello) and her pastor father Des (Tim Guinee).
Seeking refuge with her aunt, she is stunned to find out she is a lesbian in a relationship with a dominatrix named Kit (Julianne Moore).
Kit is thrilled to meet the fresh-faced Pippa and soon casts the confused teen in her depraved S&M movies.
Tie me up, tie me down: A laughing Pippa, wearing a dog collar, is forced to the floor by two 'captors'
Sordid: Troubled Pippa ends up being led astray by her aunt's lesbian lover
In one scene, Blake strips down to her retro underwear and is spanked on the backside by a severe-looking dominatrix dressed in black.
In another sequence, Blake ends up in a dog collar with a chain and is controlled by her two 'captors'.
But after turning to drugs, she finds her salvation in protective Herb, who falls for the vulnerable young woman.
Saviour: Pippa finds love with an older man, publisher Herb Lee (played by Alan Arkin)
Who's behind you: Pippa ends up crawling on the floor on a lead in one risqué scene
The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee was first screened at the Berlin International Film Festival in February and was well received by critics.
It had a limited run in British cinemas in July, taking £108,160 in the box office.
The film is released on DVD in the UK on November 2 and has a limited run in US cinemas from November 27.

Melinda Messenger strips off for lingerie brand
Luffy | Wednesday, October 07, 2009 |
Melinda Messenger proved she still has the curves that propelled her to fame, as she showcased the new Ultimo lingerie designs for bigger busted women.
The 38-year-old became famous back in the 90s when an advert showing her in her underwear was banned.
The controversy helped Melinda launch a successful career as a page three girl.
Earning their keep: Since having her breasts surgically enhanced Melinda Messenger hasn't looked back - and she's still working at 37
Face of Ultimo: Melinda represents the brand's range for bigger busted women
Twelve years later Melinda's surgically enhanced 34DD breasts are still earning their keep.
Melinda has been the face of Ultimo's D to G collection for more than a year. And she is currently hosting Five's Live From Studio Five show.
But her svelte figure doesn't come with out work. Melinda says it is thanks to the help of a natural diet pill - LIPObind, which she took after she put on 21lbs following the birth of her youngest child.
‘I was going to pose in my underwear for the first time in eight years! I suddenly thought 'Oh my God - I've got three kids and now I've got to take my clothes off!’,' she said.
Red lady: Melinda, a mother-of-three, says she would support her daughter if she followed her into modelling
The mother-of-three also says she would support her daughter Evie if she chose to follow in her footsteps.
'There are plenty of people who will pull you down and attack you – but that’s not what life’s about. It’s about following your heart,' she told the Metro.
'If she feels compelled to be a model, then I’m behind her, but she’s only five. She said she wanted to work in a library, then the next day she wanted to be like Madonna.'
Melinda's own mother denounced her when she launched her glamour model career. The two were only reconciled after the birth of Melinda's first child.
Looking good: Melinda says she would no longer go topless

serena williams posses nude for ESPN magazine
Luffy | Wednesday, October 07, 2009 |
Serena Williams certainly served up a surprise on the cover of America's ESPN magazine.
The tennis champion peeled off her usual sportswear to appear completely naked on the cover of the publication's 'Body Issue'.
The 28-year-old looks a picture of confidence while wearing nothing but a smile, her modesty saved only by some very strategic posing.
Naked ambition: Serena Williams on the cover of America's ESPN magazine
But the athlete has previously admitted she struggles to accept her body shape.
'My thighs... I think they're too big,' she has said. 'And also my arms. I think they're too muscular. They're too thick.
'Sometimes I look at myself in the mirror and am, like, I want to lose my inner thigh. I've got to do an hour of cardio today, or whatever. I try not to do it, but the insecurity comes back sometimes.
'I want women to know that it's okay. You can be whatever size you are, and you can be beautiful both inside and out.'
Back on top: The tennis champion is ranked No. 1 again after today's victory at the China Open in Beijing
The release of the magazine in the US marks a triumphant day for Serena.
She is now back on top of the rankings after a 6-3, 6-2 victory over Ekaterina Makarova in the second round of the China Open in Beijing.
But her journey back to glory has not been without controversy - last month she made a furious outburst against a line judge at the US Open.
TV viewers around the world saw the player launched a threatening, profanity-laced tirade at a female line judge after being called for a foot fault.
'If I could, I would take this ******* ball and shove it down your ******* throat,' she reportedly said.
She was fined $10,000, which is around £6,000, and later apologised for the incident.

Kristen Stewart shows off her sultry photoshoot
Luffy | Monday, October 05, 2009 |
She made her name as the girl who fell in love with a vampire. So perhaps it's not that surprising that Kristen Stewart has grown up into something of a gothic beauty.
The 19-year-old star of the Twilight movies showed off a stunning new image in a sultry photoshoot.
In the accompanying article for a U.S. magazine, Stewart tells how the success of the first Twilight movie changed her life. Now, working on the sequels, she can no longer walk about without being recognised and feels like a prisoner as she returns to her hotel room after filming each day
Leggy: Kristen Stewart shows off her pins as she reclines on a bed in a leopard-print coat
With her hair cropped and dyed black after her recent role as Joan Jett in the biopic about The Runways, Stewart looks very different from Bella Swan, the fresh-faced teen she portrays in Twilight, the story of a romance between a vampire and human girl.
Smoky make-up, leopardskin and lace ensure she smoulders in the striking shots by Craig McDean for Interview magazine.
During the interview, conducted by veteran actor Dennis Hopper, Stewart admits she is struggling to adapt to her sudden fame.
Punk princess: Stewart goes for the punk rock look with her black quiff, smoky eyes and rebellious hand gestures
New romantic: Stewart swaps her usual black for romantic white lace
It was less than a year ago that she and leading man Robert Pattinson starred in the first Twilight film - adapted from Stephanie Meyer's best-selling books
There have been rumours of a real-life romance, although Stewart is in a relationship with actor Michael Angarano.
She tells Hopper: 'I don’t talk to anybody about my personal life, and maybe that perpetuates (the attention), too.'
Followed by fans and photographers, Stewart finds it hard to live normally and has become 'boring' because she spends so much time in her hotel room while she is filming the sequels.
Wild thing: Kristen goes for an edgy look in leopard-print heels and sunglasses
'I'd like to take more walks after work instead of having to come back to my hotel room and not leave. So it can be boring,' she said. 'I don’t leave my hotel room - literally, I don’t.'
As well as her day-to-day-life, she feels the movie series has begun to dominate her conversation.
'The sad thing is that I feel so boring because Twilight is literally how every conversation I have these days begins - whether it’s someone I’m meeting for the first time or someone I just haven’t seen in a while.
All wrapped up: Stewart gets to grips with some cellophane
'The first thing I want to say to them is, “It’s insane! And, as a person, I can’t do anything!” But then I think to myself, God damn it, shut the f**k up.'
Stewart is currently working on the third Twilight movie Eclipse after finishing the sequel New Moon earlier this year.
While New Moon sees Pattinson's vampire character Edward Cullen attempt to leave his human girlfriend Bella to save her life, Eclipse sees her torn between her blood-sucking lover and her werewolf friend Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner).
Stewart says she is finally getting a better understanding of Bella in the sequels although she finds her obsessive love for Edward disturbing.
She said: 'I feel like I really know Bella now...
'You have to question their (Bella and Edward's) motivations - to watch two people so unhealthily devoted to each other.
'I stand behind everything that they do. I have to justify it in my mind, or else I couldn’t play the character. But they are definitely not the most pragmatic characters.
'The weirdest f**king themes run through this story - like dominance and masochism.'
Meyer's Twilight books have sold over 25million copies worldwide and a further 20million copies in the U.S. and have been translated in 37 languages.
