Roselyn Sanchez "Rush Hour 2 Hottie"




The "Petite" category that she competes in as a beauty pageant participant only pertains to her relatively short height. Roselyn has a full, perfectly proportioned body, with shapely curves, fine legs and ample breasts. She is constantly sexy, even when she's not trying to be. Plus, thanks to her salsa-dancing prowess, she knows how to move her body oh so seductively. Just check out her lingerie scene in Rush Hour 2. A rush of blood to the head indeed.

Biography

Roselyn Sanchez was born on April 2nd, 1970 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. She grew up there with her mother, father (a marketing businessman) and three older brothers. Despite a lifelong interest in the entertainment industry, Roselyn decided to study marketing at the University of Puerto Rico, in order to do what her brothers had not done -- namely, take over the family business. After three years, however, she decided to quit, and pursued her dreams by studying acting, singing and dancing.

In the mid-'90s, she landed a spot as dancer and co-host of Puerto Rico's No. 1 comedy-variety show, Que Vacilon, which brought her fame in her native country. Her good looks brought her success in other areas, too, particularly beauty pageants. She was named Miss Puerto Rico Petite in 1993, and the following year she represented her country and became Miss America Petite 1994.

Having done so well in her homeland, Sanchez then decided to go for the big time and left Puerto Rico for New York. Getting started was as difficult for her as it is for any aspiring actor, but she soon found her way by working on her one-woman show, Out Here On My Own, and appearing in the 1992 comedy Captain Ron, as an Island Girl. Perhaps more substantially, she won the first Latina role in the almost 50-year history of the soap opera, As the World Turns, and portrayed Pilar Domingo from 1996 to 1997.



can't beat the rush

After a handful of other relatively small roles on television (including Fame L.A. and Ryan Caulfield: Year One) and in the small-budget film Held Up, Roselyn got her breakthrough in 2001 with Rush Hour 2, starring Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan. In the sequel to the Hollywood blockbuster, she plays an undercover secret service agent who performs challenging fight scenes and even strips down to her lingerie. By all accounts, she had hit the big time.

Sanchez did not hesitate to capitalize on her newfound stardom. She appeared in no less than five films between 2002 and 2003. In Boat Trip she played the straight lady to the comedic antics of Cuba Gooding Jr., while in Nightstalker she covered the thriller genre.

After her latest big-budget film, Basic, with John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson, Roselyn enjoyed the release of two films featuring the Spanish tongue: Chasing Papi (co-starring fellow hotties Sofia Vergara and Jaci Velasquez) and Angel, a Puerto Rican production. She can now be seen on the modern version of TV's Dragnet, as Detective Lisa Macias.

Sanchez splits her time between New York, Los Angeles and the occasional return to Puerto Rico. She plans to release a record in the foreseeable future and she's in the process of composing a musical about a singer/dancer/actor who leaves Puerto Rico to hit the big time in New York. Who will play the lead role? Roselyn, of course.

Rosario Cannavaro "Backbone of Italian Tele shows"

Rosaria Cannavò

Having only seen Italian TV in fragments on the internet, it would appear that their entire programming schedule is based around filming spectacular beauties with huge cleavage wobbling around atop fake surfboards, or similar activities that make their chests move.

For this reason, one of the stars of the Italian telebox is Rosaria Cannavò, ex-girlfriend of workshy Antonio Cassano and current sentimental partner, for the second time, of Christian Panucci. And to think, all we get in the UK is Kerry Katona: Crazy in Love…

Rosaria is a 26-year-old model and TV personality from Catania, and her skills do not stop at pretending to surf - she is a trained ballerina as well.

She also recently took part in the reality show “Uno, Due, Tre..Stalla“, which translates to “One, Two, Three…Stall“. It’s anyone’s guess what this show, or indeed any other Italian show is about.

Interestingly, if it weren’t for last-minute flight change, Rosaria wouldn’t be a WAG at all right now. The flight Panucci was scheduled to take home from the 1996 Olympic tournament made an unscheduled stop at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.

Giorgia Palmas "The Sicilian WAG"

Giorgia Palmas

As the well-travelled among you will know, every single Italian woman in her twenties looks like this. And as if the gents in the boot-shaped nation aren’t treated to enough aesthetic pleasure when they leave their homes, they get to see twenty-five-year-old Giorgia Palmas in racy magazine shoots and on Striscia la notizia, the Italian equivalent of The Daily Show that satirises government corruption. Presumably, it is a show that never runs out of material.

On Striscia, Giorgia plays a ‘Velina’ - a bimbo-like character who performs short dance breaks in skimpy outfits (more on that later). Velinas are considered perfect companions for football players, which explains her position on the arm of Bologna’s Davide Bombardini.

The Sicilian WAG, who is rumoured to be expecting Davide’s baby, began her career of being ridiculously good looking in 2000, when she came second in the Miss World pageant.


Aida Yespica "Miss Amazonia 2002"


Shot to fame in a Miss Venezuela contest, which she didn’t win, but that didn’t stop her. Moved to Europe, does a fair bit of Italian and Spanish telly, went with Filippo Inzaghi, and inadvertently provoked a minor public scandal when ex-PM and owner of all Italy Silvio Berlusconi said to her at a dinner “With you, I would go anywhere.”




Certainly best known for wearing the crown as Miss Amazonia 2002, Aida Yespica has embarked on a lucrative modeling career. The stunning calendars and modeling gigs have already mounted for this international beauty with unlimited potential. She’s rapidly received some well-deserved recognition on the internet as well, and with her drool-worthy curves and exotic allure, she’s destined to move up the popularity charts.

Andreea Raicu "Romania’s hottest TV presenter"


Andreea Raicu

Whereas certain footballers will happily fornicate with any lady who pays them attention in Movida, others have very specific types. Cristian Chivu, for example, only likes brunette Romanian television presenters. Before settling down with Adelina Elisei, the Inter Milan enjoyed the company of Andreea Raicu.

In addition to hosting the Romanian version of Big Brother, Andreea has also presented shows including What Women Want, All For You and Friends Forever. Undeterred by these slushy-sounding programmes, the men of Romania made her FHM’s Sexiest Woman in the World in 2005.

Daniela Cavalieri "Liverpool Understudy Goalkeeper WAG"



Despite having mental Spaniard Pepe Reina between the sticks, Liverpool recently forked out £3m to bring Brazilian shot stopper Diego Cavalieri from Palmeiras. The transfer makes much more sense when you consider his wife, Brazilian model Daniela Cavalieri, who will almost certainly prove a welcome addition to the Anfield WAG fraternity.


Daniela is a 28-year-old professional model who loves nothing better than relaxing with a quality magazine and a comfy thong on her bed. Also she is a brunette. I think at this point it is quite clear I know very little about her. Ahem.
