even though karolina is a true and natural beauty
she really proofs that women can look awesome with soft make up and get positive attention from people (are you hearing lovely Christina Aguilera)...so, there's no need to abuse and make yourself look like an angry/desperate artist's panting
go KK

Victoria's Secret model Karolina Kurkova and the riddle of her missing belly button
Victoria's Secret model Karolina Kurkova put her bombshell curves on show during a photo shoot in Miami over the weekend, but it was her peculiar belly button that was attracting all the attention.
The Czech blonde's unusual navel had onlookers perplexed as she frolicked on the beach over the weekend in a tiny white bikini.
It's not the first time her almost non-existent belly button has drawn attention.
A source has revealed magazine and catalogue art directors routinely airbrush one in for in post-production.
'Karolina’s body is amazing, but her belly button is unusual,' a fashion insider told Page Six magazine.
'It disappears in photos, so we keep a collection of belly button shots in different positions, and Photoshop them on to her whenever she’s doing a bikini picture.'
Still, if she was at all self-conscious, she didn't let it show as she posed up on the foreshore.
The following day she was once again strutting her stuff at the lingerie company's catwalk extravaganza.
She was among the 35 Victoria's Secret models to hit the runway, including Heidi Klum and Orlando Bloom's current flame, Australian Miranda Kerr.
R&B singer Usher opened the show at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel where the front row was filled with stars including Paris Hilton, John Stamos, Kim Kardashian, Martha Stewart and Klum's husband, Seal.
Karolina, who has appeared in campaigns for Yves Saint Laurent, Ralph Lauren, Oscar de la Renta, Chanel and Balenciaga, remains one of the most in-demand models.
Her advocates include photographer Mario Testino, designer Marc Jacobs and Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who dubbed once dubbed her 'the next supermodel.'
While her popularity shows no sign of slowing down, she hopes to cross over into acting.
She recently filmed a small part in Sienna Miller's upcoming action move G.I. Joe, which is scheduled for release next year.

And for the record, I don't get why people are getting so worked up about KK not being in shape. She looks pretty toned to me!

here's a hilarious article:
Karolina Kurkova is Perfect and Has No Navel to Prove It
Victoria's Secret Supermodel's Missing Navel Adds to Allure By saul relative
Karolina Kurkova is considered one of the most beautiful women in the world. Forbes magazine has placed her in the Top Ten money-making models in the world. And in an industry where not only facial but physical beauty are not simply a plus but a must, Kurkova now may have an advantage over other in-demand beauties like Adriana Lima and Heidi Klum: She has no belly button.
Kurkova's missing navel was discovered Saturday at the Victoria's Secret Miami Beach shoot for their new line of lingerie. In a line-up that featured 35 supermodels, Karolina Kurkova suddenly became the stand-out. Not because of what she was endowed with: high cheek bones, perfectly formed breasts, beautiful eyes, toned legs that go on forever. No, Kurkova was missing her navel. No innie. No outie.Just a smooth indentation at her stomach's center.
So how does a 24-year-old nearly six foot tall Czech supermodel that has been landing covers since her appearance on Vogue when she was 17 make it seven years without anyone noticing or remarking over her navel - or lack thereof? Especially since she has been photographed and videotaped thousands of times in intervening period?
Some are suggesting that an innie belly button has been airbrushed in over the years. Airbrushing is a common technique used to hide imperfections. Its use or the failure to use it has sparked numerous controversies and scandals in the past. "Titanic" star Kate Winslet has been reportedly outraged by allegations that her semi-nude photos in Vanity Fair were airbrushed to make her look thinner. During the 2008 presidential campaign, a close-up photograph of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin was not airbrushed, making obvious slight superficial imperfections, and caused a firestorm of controversy over Newsweek's "bias" by placing the uncomplimentary photo on the cover.
A quick perusal of images of Karolina Kurkova at Chickipedia.com reveals several photos where her navel in a definite innie. There is also one where there is no navel at all. Just smooth skin.Of course, the navel is probably not the place most people direct their eyes when taking in the beauty of Karolina Kurkova. And there is also the fact that what she models may also distract from her physical attributes, such as the diamond-studded bra she wore at a Victoria Secret'sphoto shoot last month. The bra has an estimated value of approximately $5 million and was encrusted with 2000 diamonds.
There are a few mean-spirited articles circulating in print and on the internet comparing Karolina Kurkova to a mannequin, but there are far more simply announcing her lack of navel and questioning its escape of noticeability. Has there been an airbrushed-in belly button cover-up?Many are astounded that no one has brought it to the public's attention before. The modeling industry is driven by advertising demand, successful ad campaigns, the popularity of the individual models, and word-of-mouth.
The fact that Karolina Kurkova, who has been photographed in various stages of undress for years, is now being "outed" as not having a navel is almost a miracle. That her sister supermodels in the highly competitive, often brutal world of visual media never brought it up is truly amazing.But, then again, exotic sells. Just as surely as the hint of nudity or the ennui of sex, the exotic sells. Exotic is different. Exotic has allure. And in Karolina Kurkova's case, her particular claim to exotic is closer to physical perfection. With no outtie belly button, no innie fold of skin, Kurkova may just start a fashion trend where the navel disappears altogether.But until that occurs - if that ever occurs - Kurkova will be different than her sister supermodels. And difference sells. As does the seemingly perfect. Perfection is also exotic.
It should not be a surprise to see Karolina Kurkova soon becomes the highest paid model in the world. According to Models.com, she already ranks as the fifth most sexiest woman in the world. Kurkova can be seen in the upcoming televised "Victoria's Secret Fashion Show" on CBS on December 3.

Karolina Kurkova Shocker: Model Is A Mannequin
BIG shocks in the fashion world at the discovery that model Karolina Kurkova is a mannequin made of two parts plastic to one part latex.
The fashion world is in a frenzy of navel-gazing.
A fashion insider tells Anorak:
The secret’s out. We often use a small drill to bore a hole on the mannequin’s stomach and pack it with felt to make it look like a belly button. Karl [Largefeld] uses limited edition belly buttons harvested from female Russian prisoners and guinea pig eyes.”
Peter Roebuck, former head of animatronics at the Storm agency explains more:

Peter Roebuck, former head of animatronics at the Storm agency explains more:
“Yeah, it’s all clever stuff. The models are operated by radio control. Right now the technology only allows the girls to walk in straight lines, turn and walk back again. But we hope things will improve. The Japanese are doing great things with models and there is talk of one of them being able to eat actual food, open and close her eyes, and poo and wee.”
Ms Kurkova is not available for comment, although she has been known to say: “Hi”; “Let’s go play”; and “I love you. You’re my best friend.”
