Adriana Lima facts

• Adriana waited until she was 17 for her first kiss; the boy then immediately asked her parents if he could marry her.
• She's a devout Catholic who attends church every week, and remained a virgin until married.
• Thankfully for us, the Brazilian’s chasteness didn’t deter her from modelling eye-popping lingerie for the likes of Victoria’s Secret, Vera Wang and Fendi.

Why we love Adriana Lima

Adriana Lima world-beating good looks are thanks to a genetic melting-pot of Portuguese, French, Swiss and Caribbean heritage – while that perfect tan is all thanks to the beaches of her homeland Brazil. Fact: everyone in Brazil looks like Adriana Lima. Even the dudes. Even the really old dudes. .
Arguably the hottest Victoria Secret Angel ever – which really is saying something – Lima cemented her household-name status with cameo appearances on Ugly Betty and How I Met Your Mother, both of which we regularly re-watch (and press our faces against) on YouTube.
After being linked to Lenny Kravitz and, er, Prince Wenzeslaus of Liechtenstein (both of whom had to deal with her fist-biting “no sex before marriage” rule), in 2009 Lima married Croatian NBA star Marko Jarić, who is a bastard. Nah, not really... He’s probably ace. We’re just jealous. Gah!

Bar Refaeli facts

• Hugely successful model with countless magazine covers and ad campaigns.
• Met Leonardo DiCaprio at a party in 2005 and the pair started dating.
• Got out of national service by marrying (then divorcing) a family friend.
• She volunteers for Project Sunshine, helping provide free services to children with life-threatening illnesses.

Why we love Bar Refaeli

There isn't a lady here who started working at an earlier age than white-hot Israeli model Bar Refaeli: she was a baby model in ads from the age of eight months. More acting may one day beckon for this blue-eyed bikini queen, but singing is definitely out. "If there was one thing I wish I could be, it's a singer, but I'm the worst singer in the world," she says. "When I do karaoke, everyone runs away."
A self-styled tomboy with dreams of being a skydiver when she was growing up on her parents' horse ranch, Bar Refaeli soon ditched horse-shit and dreams of parachutes for a modelling career that has included the likes of French lingerie firm Passionata, and which swiftly had Leonardo DiCaprio sniffing around at a U2 party in Vegas in 2005. They became an item and, touchingly, she whisked him off to meet the President of Israel.
Bar Refaeli's attracted a bit of controversy though, has Bar Refaeli. In 2009 she was painted on to the side of a Boeing 737, as an airline company took the opportunity to take an image from the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue around the world. Passengers complained though, saying that it was inappropriate. We disagree. The same year billboards in Tel-Aviv of her posing semi-nude were taken down after complaints that they could “poison” the public. Again, we disagree.
In 2011 Bar Refaeli moved back in to acting as the lead role in a film called Sessions. You probably haven’t seen it. You’re more likely to have seen her guest appearance as a judge on Germany’s Next Top Model hosted by Heidi Klum. In which she presumably stalled for time so she didn't have to tell the contestents that they will never, ever be as hot as her.
