Adriana Francesca Lima born June 12 1981 is a Brazilian supermodel. Lima is best known for her modeling work with Victoria's Secret and Maybelline. Lima was born in the northeastern coastal town of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil on June 12, 1981. Her parents are Nelson Torres and Maria da Graça Lima, a social worker. In late 2007, she told a reporter at the Hollywood Walk of Fame that she has two half brothers, aged 7 and 11. Lima is fluent in three languages—Portuguese, Spanish and English. In her free time, she loves reading a novel by her favorite author, Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
Lima has admitted that she was shy around boys when she was younger, not receiving her first kiss until she was 17 years old. In an interview with GQ April 2006 issue, Lima told the magazine that she is a devoted Catholic who attends church every Sunday and is a virgin. "Sex is for after marriage," she explained. "They (men) have to respect that this is my choice. If there's no respect, that means they don't want me." US GQ dubbed her as "The World's Most Voluptuous Virgin."
Despite reports, Lima denied ever being engaged to rocker Lenny Kravitz and claimed that she and Kravitz have always been just friends. She has also been romantically linked to other celebrities in the past, including New York Yankees superstar Derek Jeter, Prince Wenzeslaus of Liechtenstein, and Denny of Timbalada. It is rumored that currently Lima is dating Serbian Marko Jarić of the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves.
