Uriel: Is it really obvious that Victoria Silvstedt has gone under the knife? Is it really impossible for one to be naturally endowed in that manner?

It's perfectly possible to have natural breasts that large -- got some myself -- but they tend to be pulled lower by gravity and have a different shape.
Naturally endowed women tend to be a little meaty in other areas of their body (but of course not you, Uriel!), such as in the hips, thighs, and ass. Victoria looks a little too skinny to have cans that size, which makes me think that she's had some work done.
Well, yeah, actually I have the extra, too. Sadly, more in the tummy than the hips or thighs! Luckily, the balcony overshadows it all..... _________________ An apple a day....
Well since Monica Belluci is already up, I'm posting pics of Manuela Arcuri, who has drawn some comparisons to Monica. Not so sure how great the comparisons are, but anyway...
And she has posed nude [willingly] before, but you can google for that yourselves ;)

I know my tastes were greatly shaped by having been a dancer, but looking at the lingerie photos of Manuela Arcuri, the first thing I noticed is that she, like so many models, has absolutely no development of her hamstrings (the muscles at the back of the thigh), resulting in a straight line from her knee to her butt. No me gusta.
Wow -I actually thought that was a good trait. I was a runner in high school and as I result I have very well developed legs (still very strong too). I absolutely hate that I cannot get this small bulge on my thigh above my knee to go away. I notice that only people who have well-developed legs have them. Some don't look bad, but I'm short so I think it looks bigger than it should! Deborah, do you know what muscle it is?

Maybe that's what they want in models.

Good for you!

Is it the bulge on the medial part of the quadriceps, that is, toward the inner thigh? If so, it's the vastus medialis.

I wanted to post a picture of Juliet Prowse, whose legs were perfect, IMO. But I just realized that when I had to get my hard drive replaced, I lost that picture. Oh, well, she wasn't European anyway.

You know, I noticed that a lot whenever I'd look at pictures of Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington, two of my favorite supermodels when I was growing up. They were beautiful to look at, but their legs seemed to have sprung straight from their torsos without taking any shape, which looked odd to me.

The website that originally had my favorite picture of Juliet Prowse is gone now. But you can kind of see what I'm talking about in this picture:
That woman had legs for days!
I love the shape of dancer's legs.
Sorry for digressing from the topic at hand. Gomenasai.
I noticed that straightness in her legs, too. I agree with you, Deborah, that extra curve is most becoming. I always put one in when I am drawing women. Personally, I think muscular, well-defined legs look very good on a lady, so I bet you are stressing over nothing, Tiffany! _________________ An apple a day....

Hey, how'd you find that picture of me?? No, not really (as if anyone believed me...) -- that doesn't look like me at all. But in my more flexible days, I used to be able to wrap both legs behind my head like that.
Thanks for posting a picture Deborah. Yes all three of the muscles pictured are well-developed on my legs. Perhaps I am a bit self-conscious Uriel, but my husband does think I am beautiful and that helps ;)
I think the standard of beauty that we grow up with in western countries is very very narrow.

Hamstring muscle or not, that woman is smokin'! Me gusta, me gusta.
Going off topic, but since Elaine brought this image up, have any of you seen the Steven Klein/Madonna installation exhibit that this picture came from? I saw it at the Deitch gallery in SoHo a few years ago, but I believe it toured all over the world. Now that was some weird shit.
Connie Nielsen. Mein Gott... Danish actress. You may remember her from The Devil's Advocate, Gladiator or One Hour Photo. There are other photos of her that are a bit more revealing, but they don't do her face justice.
