Grace,

That green one with her green eyes is proof that heaven sent us a sample of human perfection in Adriana. Never have I seen anything so beautiful. I'm dying to know what her parents look like. They must high-five one another every time they see her pics!

Here's a fave that's not model pic, but just sooo adorable!

 

[grace_101]

^^ I couldn't agree more. I would kill to look like her! I wounder if she knows how good shes got it lol. I want to know what her parents look like as well. They must be beautiful since they have French, Portuguese, Native-American, Japanese and Caribbean heritage in them. Do you know if Adriana have any sibblings?? That pic with her holding the baby is so cute!

 

[OriginalSin]

hmm i dont think she has any siblings

Isn't Giselle and another model with blonde hair from Brazil???

Of course! This is ridiculous, no offense! No original blondes or readheads in Brazil?????

AS previously and correctly mentioned, brazil IS a melting pot of races and ethnicities, first the portuguese, then later on the germans, poles and italians and other europeans. the 3 southern-most states of brazil are 98% european descent. all european tall, light skinned and light eyed, because this is where they established themselves. that is why these souther states are the richest and most advanced in the whole country. towards the north, where adriana's from , most people are dark skinned because of the african slave migration and where they remained. and then of course there are the mixtures, like ana beatriz barros who has green eyes but darkish skin, like adriana. the whole american continent has adopted european and indigenous traits, and the result of the mixture of both. in argnetina and uruguay most of the indigenous population was killed, therefore a good 90% of their people are of european descent. take valeria mazza, daniela urzi, nicole neumann for example. all blond haired blue eyed and 100% argenteneans. in paraguay, peru and bolivia for example, the indigenous population was preserved and turned into the slave-like-condition group, to benefit the spanish, hence the majority of THEIR population being of indigenous heritage. the U.S. inherited for the most part the British heritage, of course there are minority gropups such as italians for ex. there just isnt much dark skinned people because tghe minority groups such as the indigenous tribes didn't mix with the european inmigrants. lots of europeans landed on the american contient after the world wars seeking refuge. anyway i'll stop now i got carried away

Just off the top of my head blondes are raquel zimmerman, caroline trentini, ana claudia michels, ana hickman, giane albertoni, loiani something... bruna edhart - and yes, ORIGINAL!!!

gisele is a brunette, along with isabeli, jeisa chiminazzo carol francischini, fernanda motta, fernanda lima, leticia birkheuer, michele alves...etc..etc... ALL "LIGHT " SKINNED!.- just to make a point

and of course there are the dark skinned ones like adriana, alessandra, fernanda tavares, raica oliveira, barbara fialho, caroline ribeiro..

redheads - cintia dicker!!!!!!!!!

Really out of curiosity, how do you sostain such bizzare evidence?? no offense of course, i hate fighting in forums

 

[catalina]

ps- i'm directing this question to the person who said there were no red heads or blondes in brazil

 

[OriginalSin]

i totally understand where ur coming from catalina. when i read the original post, the one ALimaFan responded to, i was like huh? where did u get THAT from? and the poster said it with such conviction too! but i'm going to assume that perhaps he or she was just ignorant on the matter...and hopefully meant no harm by it...i dont think he or she has responded to any of our rebuttals tho

I think Adriana's humble about her looks. She has to know she's hot to the world b/c of her success. But in interviews she always thanks God

On her background....Almost everyone can claim a slew of things, but Adriana herself said that she is "African, Indian and Swiss." This is in a Fashion TV interview. It's edited down on my website at http://www.LilGraFX.com (it'll take time to load - flash)

Read about Bahia to learn about where she's from. Here's a few links I suggest:

http://www.seeingblack.com/2004/x011604/brazil_diary.shtml

http://www.brazzillog.com/pages/blajun01.htm

Then look at Adriana's earlier pics...really closely. Look at her lips, skin and natural hair texture. You'll see all of it. To me that is one reason that Adriana's so amazingly beautiful. She can look completely white, completely Indian, completely African or like an ambigous mix. She's so uniquely versatile.

Thanks for clearing that up b/c I was wondering what I did to deserve such a lashing

So Anna Beatriz is from Brazil too huh? Interresting b/c she looks so similar feature-wise to Adriana. Is she also from Bahia? I don't know much about Anna.

ALimaFan Answers:
Adriana is an only child. Now that her parents see what they've created, they should do it again. Make a male one for me please Mr. & Mrs. Lima, LOL!!!

 

[OriginalSin]

LMAO i love the way u put grace_101 asked and ALimaFan answers!! thats hilarious!

 

[OriginalSin]

oh yes and re: ana bb

from askmen.com: "Ana Beatriz Barros was born in Itabira, a tiny town in Brazil, on May 29, 1982. Ana was raised in the cosmopolitan Rio de Janeiro after her family moved there"

she also has a sister patricia barros, who also models, and is older than ana i believe

Thanks for that info. Ana's really pretty also.

I can't believe I'm so into models. It's Tyra's fault for that darn ANTM show that I'm hopelessly addicted to *ordering my reality TV addiction patch*. Now I wanna know everything about "real" top models! Have sites like this been around long b/c I see I'm surely not the only one.

 

[OriginalSin]

lol @ addiction patch. i know what u mean!!! i've become absolutely *addicted* to ANTM since the 2nd season (i missed the 1st season but watched the repeats on vh1 even tho i already knew who won ) and now the show has gotten me into models as well...coz i know b4 that i never really cared

and i'm always on the hunt for more fashion/model sites. this is def. one of the best imo (not just kissing up here ) but i love the information about the fashion industry in general u can get here, and i do like the appreciation for high fashion models here. whereas, bz is more about commercial models, and thats great too coz commercial models arent as popular here (incl adriana unfort ) but i think a lot of us adriana fans have at least chased the haters away!

 

[sepia]

Wow, I'm just like yall! I was never into modelling or fashion until I watch Top Model. That piqued the interest that made me succumb to the allure of the fashion industry and real modelling. I love this site!

LOL @ chasing the haters away! I love these sites. I can't wait to explore them all just to discover a new Adriana pic, fan site or video clip here and there. It's like hunting for Easter eggs...so exciting And when her own site is functional....oh boy. What a field day for all of us!
