Italian Model's Virginity For Sale (And For Only $1.5 Million!)

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

If you could afford it, would you shell out a million-and-a-half for the right to be this woman's first terrible mistake?

Perhaps inspired by the well-publicized case of the American woman who has sold her virginity for (at least) $275,000, Italian model Raffella Fico has offered herself up for the princely sum of $1.5 million. You got it? Take a look at these photos from Fico's modeling career and let us know whether you'd fund her new house and "acting lessons." (Oh, brother... for that kind of money in the US, she could buy 40 homes in California and raise Marlon Brando from the dead for a weekend intensive.)

 

We're betting Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi has already called to inquire as to the location of the bidding.

More disgrace on our already disgraced country.

(She's not exactly a model, though, more of a celebutard of sorts. She was a contestant in the Italian version of "Big Brother".)

She's also gone on record as saying that she has no idea what sex is, and should the winner of the auction not be of her taste, she'll down a couple of glasses of wine and get on with it.

Sweet.

i really dont know what to think of that, in some ways i cant blame her, its alot of money and that, but i know a few girls who really regretted the way they lost their virginity. but then it probably would have been different if theyd got 3 quarters of a million pounds. after all girls dont like boys girls like cars and money. apparantly
