At the age of 15, Lima finished first in Ford's "Supermodel of Brazil" competition, and took second place the following year in the Ford "Supermodel of the World" competition before signing with Elite Model Management in New York City.

Early life[]

Lima was born Adriana Francesca Lima on June 12, 1981 in Salvador, Brazil.[3][4] The surname "Lima" is of Portuguese origin.

About her ethnicity, Lima stated that she is Afro-Brazilian of Indigenous, Swiss, Japanese, African, and West Indian ancestry.[5]Template:Efn

Adriana speaks four languages: her native Portuguese, English, Italian and Spanish.[6]

Lima never thought about being a model, although she had won many beauty pageants in elementary school.[7] However, she had a friend at school who wanted to enter a modeling contest and did not want to enter alone, so Lima entered with her. Both sent in pictures, and the contest sponsor soon asked Lima to come out for the competition. Soon after, at the age of 15, she entered and finished in first place in Ford's "Supermodel of Brazil" model search. She subsequently entered the 1996 Ford "Supermodel of the World" contest and finished in second place.[8][9]

Her April 2006 GQ cover was the highest-selling issue of that magazine for the year.[16] It is also one of the biggest selling issues of the publication ever.[17] The magazine named her "The World's Most Voluptuous Virgin".[18]

In 2006, Lima ranked as the fifth highest paid supermodel. In 2007 and 2008, she ranked as the world's fourth highest paid supermodel by Forbes Magazine.[16][19][20][21]

In the first quarter of 2012, her advertisement campaign increased sales to 50%, the highest increase in products sales. It also provided 20% increase in stores and online traffic. Furthermore, her television commercial which was watched by 28 million people became a trending topic at Twitter and the number of people now on Mavi's Facebook page have increased by 20%. Store officials at Mavi say the clothing Lima wore in the ad campaigns were met with so much demand that, they ran out of stock. Due to her success rate with the company, the European and Russian branch of Mavi decided to make her the global face of the brand.[34][35]

Lima was photographed by artist Richard Phillips on the famed Copacabana sidewalk in Brazil for Visionaire no. 62 which was released in mid-2012.[36] Lima is the subject of a painting by Phillips at Gagosian Gallery's 24th Street Gallery in New York.[37]

In an interview, Phillips talks about Lima: "She's so powerful,really an entity, in a way". Then added: "You meet her and there's a generosity of spirit and very friendly and easy manner, and then all of sudden, the lights go on, and you realize you're working with this absolutely extraordinary person who's capable of creating these powerful images."[38]

She is – for the second time – featured in the Pirelli calendar by setting a record of being the first pregnant woman to be ever featured in the calendar for the 2013 edition.[39]

What is most remarkable about Adriana is how much she gives. Whether it's shooting for a campaign, walking in a show or being a part of an event to support us, she is a shining example of an independent woman, a devoted mother and good friend.".

On June 18, 2015, she attended the Decadence launch party, during which she helped out with a card trick and was then sawed in half by magician Gregory Dubin. Describing the experience in an interview, she commented: "I was shaking — it’s the first time that I’ve done that! I had no idea he was going to do it, so I felt really nervous as I climbed into the box. But, before I really knew it, he'd sawed through the box and I'd been divided into two halves. The weirdest part of it all was that, even though I knew my legs were not attached to the rest of my body, I could still feel it when he tickled my feet!"

Also in 2015, she was ranked as the world's second highest paid supermodel with earnings of $9 million.[45]

Victoria's Secret[]

Lima is probably best known for her work with Victoria's Secret. Her first fashion show for the company came in 1999, and since being contracted as an Angel in 2000, she has appeared on subsequent shows ever since, opening the show in 2003, 2007, 2008, and 2010.[46] In 2012, she opened the show for the 5th time less than two months after giving birth to her second child.[47][48]

In 2004, she was part of the five Angels promoting Victoria's Secret nationwide in the so-called "Angels Across America"-Tour alongside Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Gisele Bündchen and Alessandra Ambrosio.[49] She missed the 2009 show due to her pregnancy.[50] Lima has appeared on several television ads for the brand, including the praised and criticized[51][52] "Angel in Venice" commercial of 2003 with Bob Dylan.

2008 continued for Lima with hosting the What Is Sexy? program for the E! Entertainment Network and a July tour for the BioFit Uplift Bra launch. She was also featured in November's Miracle Bra relaunch.[53][54] Topping the year off, Lima wore the "Fantasy Bra" for the 2008 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The bra, created by American jewelry designer Martin Katz, was set with 3,575 black diamonds, 117 certified Template:Convert white round diamonds, 34 rubies, and two black diamond drops totaling Template:Convert. Valued at over $5 million, the bra carried more than Template:Convert.[55]

In 2010, she again wore the Fantasy Bra, called the Victoria's Secret Bombshell Fantasy Bra. The bra which weighs in at 142 carats with 60 carats of white diamonds and 82 carats of topazes and sapphires is worth 2 million dollars.[56] She wore the fantasy bra again in 2014, along with Alessandra Ambrosio, with each bra valuing $2,000,000

Super Bowl ads[]

Lima's 2008 solo Victoria's Secret's Super Bowl XLII ad was the single most-seen ad of the game, watched by 103.7 million viewers.[57] In February 2012, Lima became the only celebrity to ever star in two Super Bowl commercials in one game. She starred in Super Bowl XLVI commercials for online flower service Teleflora and Kia Motors in early 2012 which was watched by more than 200 million viewers.[58][59] Her Kia Motors Super Bowl commercial – promoting the new Kia Optima – sent sales to their highest mark since the design debuted. Sales were up 31% from January 2012 and 138.6% from February 2012.[60][61] The commercial was also voted No.3 out of the 55 commercials on USA TODAY and Facebook's Super Bowl Ad Meter.[62][63] A teaser of the commercial was released in movie theaters in January before the game. It is believed to be the first time a Super Bowl commercial premiered in movie theaters.[64]

Forbes named her Teleflora commercial as one of the best during Super Bowl XLVI, with the comment, "Teleflora ... Adriana Lima. 'Nuff said".[65] Among the many reviews the commercial had, The Huffington Post said: "One of the basic goals of any commercial is to capture the viewer's attention, and by this measure, Teleflora.com's ad featuring supermodel Adriana Lima was most definitely successful."[66] ESPN.com noted: "This actually makes sense when you think about it: Launch your Valentine's Day campaign in the middle of the Super Bowl. That's actually what flower company Teleflora is doing on Sunday. Even smarter? Hire supermodel Adriana Lima to star in it."[67]

Acting[]

Lima's first acting role was the wife, alongside Mickey Rourke and Forest Whitaker, in The Follow (2001), a short film in BMW's series The Hire, starring Clive Owen and directed by Wong Kar-wai.[22] She also appeared with her fellow Angels in a guest spot playing herself in the series How I Met Your Mother in November 2007. She also played herself, along with fellow Victoria's Secret Angels, in the 2013 series The Crazy Ones starring Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

In 2008, Lima appeared on the American television series Ugly Betty, where she played herself and made friends with the series' title character, Betty.[68]

Public image[]

Lima was listed in the 2005 Forbes' edition of The World's Best-Paid Celebrities Under 25.[69] She ranked ninety-nine in the 2005 and 2006 Forbes' edition of The Celebrity 100 lists.[70] In 2012, she was listed in Forbes Celebrity 100 power list for earning more than 7 million between May 2011 and May 2012.[71] In 2012, she ranked number eight in forbes' "The World's Most Powerful Latino Celebrities" list for earning more than 7 million dollars.[72]

Lima was chosen to be a part of People magazine's 100 most beautiful people in the world list, sharing that space with the Angels, with whom she also received a star on the Hollywood "Walk of Fame" prior to the 2007 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.[73] That same year, she ranked 7th on FHMs "100 Sexiest Women 2007" list.[74]

Lima was also voted on Maxim's "Hot 100" 2007 at the No.53 spot. She was voted No.1 as the Most Desirable Woman in 2005 by visitors of the men's lifestyle website Askmen.com and placed 4th in 2006 and 2007, 10th in 2008, and 19th in 2009.[75][76] She received the award for "Hottest Girl on the Planet" in the 2007 Spike Guys' Choice Awards.[77] Since November 2008, Models.com has featured her at number one on the list of the "Sexiest Models."[78] As of July 2011, she is also ranked No. 4 in the website's "Money Girls" list.[79] The website also lists her on "the Supers" list. The list, which has only 8 supermodels, is about supermodels that transcend the boundaries of the fashion industry and have public recognition in and out of fashion.[80] In 2010, she was voted eighth in "FHM's Sexiest Women in the World".[81] FHM ranked her at No. 6 in 2009, No. 21 in 2008 and No. 4 in 2007.[82]

In 2010, Lima was ranked No. 46 on the 50 most popular women on the Web according to Google search results.[83] A results from a market research study in 2011 about the UEFA Champions League released by Heineken showed that 52% of men would rather watch their team lift the Champions League trophy than go on a date with Lima. McAfee ranked Lima as the 6th most "dangerous" celebrity in cyberspace in 2010. The ranking, relating to the use of the names of popular celebrities to lure people to websites that are laden with malicious software, ranked Lima number eight in 2011.[84] Complex ranks her 4th in the list of "The 100 Hottest Supermodels of All Time".[85] [86]

On October 6, 2015, it was announced that Adriana will have her own wax figure at the Madame Tussauds New York. She's the first Victoria's Secret Angel and the second Brazilian figure to join the Tussauds star lineup, after soccer star Pelé.[87] Her wax figure was unveiled on November 30, 2015.[88][89]

Criticism[]

In a 2011 interview with The Daily Telegraph, prior to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, Lima revealed her diet regimen – nine days before the show, she drinks only protein shakes: "No liquids at all so you dry out, sometimes you can lose up to eight pounds just from that," she says. She also stated that the last three weeks before the show, she works out twice a day.[90] The interview got negative reviews on the media and was mentioned in CNN's Anderson Cooper's "Ridiculist".[91] Shortly afterwards, Lima defended herself in an interview with E!, "I know it's very intense but ... I just have an athlete's mind and I appreciate doing this thing," she said. "It's not that I do crazy diets throughout the year. I just do it for this particular thing. After this show, I become normal again."[92]

The Adriana Lima diet became so popular that it eventually became one of the top five most searched diets on the web in 2012 according to Google. Other celebrities on the list are Beyoncé and Michael Phelps.[93]

Charity[]

Lima does charitable work helping with an orphanage, "Caminhos da Luz" (Paths of Light), located in Salvador. She helps with construction to expand the orphanage, and buys clothes for poor children in Salvador, Bahia.[94] She appeared on Var mısın? Yok musun?, the Turkish version of Deal or No Deal, where her prize money went to a hospital in Istanbul for children fighting leukemia.[95]

Religious Views[]

Lima is a devout Roman Catholic who attends mass every Sunday. In April 2006, she told GQ that she was a virgin. "Sex is for after marriage," she said. "[Men] have to respect that this is my choice. If there's no respect, that means they don't want me." She also denounced abortion as a crime, and stated that she does not disagree with any teaching of the church.[96][97]

Personal life[]

In 2001, she began dating singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Lenny Kravitz. In 2002, the couple was engaged, but less than a year later, the engagement was called off.[98]

After nine months of dating, Lima became engaged to Serbian NBA player Marko Jarić in June 2008.[99] The couple married on St. Valentine's Day 2009 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.[100][101]In subsequent interviews, Lima confirmed that she had stayed true to her principles and remained a virgin until her wedding night. Shortly after they returned from honeymoon, Lima announced that she was pregnant with her first child who, doctors had told her, was probably conceived on the couple's wedding night. In May 2009, it was reported that Lima had applied for Serbian citizenship,[102] but it was never granted to her.[103] The couple have two daughters: Valentina Lima Jarić (Serbian Cyrillic: Валентина Лима Јарић, born November 15, 2009)[104] and Sienna (Serbian Cyrillic: Сијена Лима Јарић, born September 12, 2012).[105] On May 2, 2014, Lima and Jaric announced their separation after five years of marriage.[106] The divorce was finalized in March 2016.[107]

  • "Fashion is about good energy. It's about feelings. That's what I have to give the people, good energy and good feelings."
  • "I guess I would like to be a child doctor. A pediatry ... how do you call it, pediatrician? Do I like kids? No, not really. [laughs] No I'm joking! Of course I do! If anyone doesn't like children they should be smited down ... just like, ZAP! [more laughs]"
  • "It's insane! Some people ask me for my autograph and a picture, but mostly they will follow me around. They follow me into bathrooms! They lack subtlety as well. Rome is the worst, I've had a group of about 30 people and then a load of photographers surround me in a circle while I'm trying to [walk] with André."
  • "I wouldn't change anything about my life. I am afraid that if I did things might have turned out differently and I am currently living my dream. If that means I had to live a poor [life] and I have to deal with demons then I will do it. I got through everything and I am very proud of myself ...

And whatever comes tomorrow, I'm totally open to accept everything."
  • "Sex is for marriage, [men] have to respect that this is my choice. If there's no respect, that means they don't want me."
  • "I know some people may think it strange that I didn't lose my virginity until I was 28, but it was really important for me that I waited until I was married before I took that step. I've got to admit that I was very nervous before we started and as Marko started to enter me, which did hurt a little bit. But that didn't last, and feeling him moving inside me was a wonderful sensation. Now, I love sex, and we're having great fun exploring all the different possibilities!"
  • "Valentina is a wonderful child, and the fact that the doctors tell me she was probably conceived the very first time my husband, or any man, made love to me will always make her extra-special to me."
