NY To Auction Off Nude Photo Of New First Lady Of France
If only France itself were as cool as Sarkozy….
PARIS (AP) - A nude photo of France’s first lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy will be auctioned off at a sale next month in New York City, an auction house said.
The image was taken by photographer Michel Comte in 1993, when Bruni- Sarkozy was one of the world’s most sought-after models. In the black- and-white photo, she strikes a pigeon-toed pose, her hands covering her crotch.
An official at French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s office declined Tuesday to comment on the April 10 sale, saying it concerned the leader’s private life.
The photo is expected fetch $3,000-$4,000 at the auction, to be held at Rockefeller Plaza, according to the Web site for Christie’s auction house.
Sarkozy divorced his second wife in October and married the Italian- born former model—now a successful singer—in February, after a quick courtship.
Bruni-Sarkozy was to undertake her first state visit as France’s first lady on Wednesday, with a two-day trip to Britain, where she and her husband are expected to attend a lavish banquet held by Queen Elizabeth II.
Although this ain’t the photo in question, it’s still, uhm, I guess what you’d call an upper-half spoiler:
If only France itself were as cool as Sarkozy….
then, you don’t know the “real” Sarko ; his wife is “worst” they have some “temper”, the best possible shared alea in France
France is “cool”, you just have to take off your “black and white” glasses to realise it

March 26th, 2008 at 3:13 amso, the spam filter is still active, I am not going to wait till my posts will appear or not, a few are still in the limbs ; some “billets d’humeur”, as responses, will be on my place ; for those who are interested, they’ll find the traces of my foot in a few topics here, autrement, s’ils aiment la soup, la mienne est correcte
Drill, “shrug” ment “vielle toupie” pas encore vu l’explication printed
March 26th, 2008 at 4:43 amYeah, I figured but I wanted to see if Frenchie would admit that his sources are more suspect than he realizes.
