Why Monica Bellucci?
The World's First & Only Perfect Face...
The Most Charming Woman One Could Hope to Meet...
A Smile that Will Make Your Knees Weak...
A Body That Should be Displayed in the Louvre...
And Acting Talent that Has Her Headed for Greatness...
Why Not Monica Bellucci???This Italian bombshell is one of the sexiest women on the planet. She has had to overcome the dreaded curse of having been a model before moving into the film industry, but she has been superb in virtually everything she's done. Now she is on the verge of superstardom with her roles in the two 'Matrix' sequels and Mel Gibson's epic, 'The Passion of the Christ'.
I think she is one of the most interesting, talented and daring actresses in the world today. She is unafraid to take artistically bold risks... I love that!
Monica is easily becoming one of the most sought after actresses of our day... being hand picked by Bruce Willis for her role in 'Tears of the Sun' and by Mel Gibson for the role of Mary Magdalene in 'The Passion of the Christ'.
Her role in 2003's 'Irreversible' is one of the most heartbreaking and touching performances in recent years. She should be nominated for every award there is for that role. Oscar will soon start paying attention to this supreme talent...
I wish her all the best en route to the top of the Hollywood A-List.
Good Luck with everything you do Monica!!

About her kissing scene with Keanu Reeves in The Matrix Reloaded, Monica is quoted as saying -- "It's the longest movie kiss I've ever done," she says. "It seemed to go on forever. First they wanted it in close-up, then in long shot, then in-between. My lips were quite sore. But happily I knew Keanu from way back and he's a gentle kisser. Between takes I sucked mints all the time. I thought it was the least I could do."

Monica Bellucci Quotes
"Time destroys everything." - Irreversible
"Beauty is a handicap if you're stupid, but not if you are intelligent and know how to use your beauty. I feel fine and comfortable with myself, but not because I'm beautiful. I know many beautiful people and their lives are just so terrible. They feel so uncomfortable with themselves. Being comfortable is not about what you look like, but how you feel. I'm a lucky person because I've been loved a lot. I have a great family." - Interview
