Victoria Secret Model : Adriana Karembeu

Name at birth: Adriana Sklenarikova

Model Adriana Karembeu is a superstar in Europe, where she's best known for her ads for Peroni Beer and for Wonderbra. Also famous is her length: she is reportedly 6'1" tall, and her legs (at 49.5 inches/126 centimeters) once were listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest supermodel legs in the world. (Brazilian model Ana Hickmann has been listed by Guinness for the same trait.) She married the French football (soccer) player Christian Karembeu in December of 1998. Since then she has been known both by her original name of Sklenarikova and as Adriana Karembeu.

Karembeu joins Magdalena Wrobel and Caprice Bourret in our loop on The Women of Wonderbra... She also appears with Molly Sims in The Models of Victoria's Secret.

Other famous (former) Czechoslovakians include Daniela Pestova, Václav Havel and Madeleine Albright.
