Since her rise to fame, Adriana Lima is often cited by popular media as one of the world’s sexiest women. She ranked 7th on FHM 100 Sexiest Women 2007 and was chosen as one of People Magazine’s annual 100 Most Beautiful People in the World, in May 2007, along with her fellow Angels. On June 13, 2007, she was awarded as “Hottest Girl on the Planet” at the first Spike TV Guys’ Choice Awards but the category was not mentioned in the actual show. Lima was also voted on the Maxim Hot 100 2007 as number 53. She was voted as the Most Desirable Woman in 2005 by visitors of the largest men’s lifestyle website, Askmen.com (she was placed 4th in 2006, also 4th in 2007 and 10th in 2008). Lima is fluent in three languages – Portuguese, Spanish, and English, now that’s sexy. 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.”
Lima has been romantically linked to other celebrities in the past, including rocker Lenny Kravitz, New York Yankees superstar Derek Jeter, Prince Wenzeslaus of Liechtenstein, and Denny of Timbalada.
Currently Lima is engaged to Serbian basketball player Marko Jarić of the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves.
