Monica Bellucci

Monica Anna Maria Bellucci was born on September 30, 1964 in the Italian village of Città di Castello, Umbria, the only child of Brunella Briganti and Pasquale Bellucci. She originally pursued a career in the legal profession. While attending the University of Perugia, she modeled on the side to earn money for school, and this led to her modeling career. In 1988, she moved to one of Europe’s fashion centers, Milan, and joined Elite Model Management. She is one of the most beautiful actresses of all cinema history, but Monica Bellucci is so much more than just being beautiful. Also, she proved her talent with a successful career in cinema. Her early-beginning career as a model turned into a great career in cinema, and she had roles in so many movies from France to the USA.

Bellucci began her career as a fashion model, modeling for Dolce & Gabbana and Dior

‘I’m not someone who wakes up at 6:00 am to go to the gym. The truth is that I like cakes and pasta, the odd glass of wine, and a very occasional cigarette. My advice is: eat well, drink well, have good sex–and laugh a lot. The rest comes all on its own.’

‘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.’
