Beautiful hair, beautiful eyes, beautiful skin, beautiful smile...... Gorgeous.
Adriana was born in the northeastern coastal town of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil in June 12, 1981 Adriana has stated that she is of African, Indian and Swiss descent.What a mixture!!

Adriana is best known for her work with Victoria's Secret. She first graced the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 1999 and has appeared on subsequent shows ever since. In 2003 Adriana was Victoria's Secret show opener. Adriana Lima is currently a contract Victoria's Secret "Angel" and spokesperson for the brand. In an interview with GQ April 2006 issue, Lima told the magazine that she is a virgin. “Sex is for after marriage," she says. "They have to respect that this is my choice. If there's no respect, that means they don't want me."
Despite reports, Adriana has denied ever being engaged to rocker Lenny Kravitz and said that she and Kravitz are just friends.
