Who is Monica Bellucci?

Monica Bellucci was born on the 30th September 1964 in Citta di Castello, Umbria, Italy. She is an actress and former fashion model. Initially pursuing a career as a lawyer, by modelling Monica helped finance her tuition while at the University of Perugia, but the glamorous lifestyle tempted Monica away from her law studies. She speaks Italian, French and English fluently and has acted in each of these languages, as well as Aramaic. In 2004, she created a storm in Italy. While pregnant with her daughter, she posed nude for the Italian Vanity Fair Magazine in protest against Italian laws that allow only married couples to use in-vitro fertilisation. In 1988, Monica moved to one of Europe's fashion centres, Milan, where she signed with Elite Model Management. By 1989, she was becoming prominent as a fashion model in Paris and New York. In 2004, she topped AskMen's 100 Most Beautiful Women in the World annual list. Monica's modelling career is managed today by Elite+ in NYC. She is considered an Italian sex symbol and is the current face of Dior Cosmetics. Her best known film roles are as Persephone in the first two Matrix movies and as Mary Magdalene in The Passion of the Christ, a role that got her into trouble in Italy.
