Cristiano Ronald, the new men's underwear model for Armani, knows how to kick balls. Soccer balls, that is. (That's footballs outside of the U.S.) The winger replaces David Beckham as the body for Armani and with his extreme six-pack, which has been wrought by doing up to 3,000 sit ups per day, people will being saying "David who?" immediately.
The 24-year old, who plays for Real Madrid, has earned obvious praise from Giorgio Armani. Armani is quoted as saying, "Cristiano is a great-looking young man with the perfect physique of an athlete." Okay, Giorgio that's a real "duh" statement. Of course he looks like an athlete, he IS one! I mean call him a "god," even more specifically an "Adonis," or a perhaps a "statue crafted by Michelangelo?"
Yes, Giorgio (to use the title of a very bad film staring Pavarotti), Ronaldo is definitely an athlete. That is def. Hi-def.
Armani did have a few insightful comments and observations, saying, "For me, he is the essence of youth- spontaneous, exciting and a real maverick. It is for his energy that I have chosen Cristiano to become the new face of Armani Jeans and Emporio Armani Underwear- for his youthful, exciting, and, yes, sexy attitude."
In the men's underwear photos, Ronaldo offers a range of looks from pouty to effervescent. Noted for his stylistic statements, the former Manchester United footballer, has worn a range of looks, including a whole lot of baby pink, tight shorts and a pink flower behind his ear, and metallic hotpants.
When his fashion sense caused a stir a few years back, the buff and tough wing man said, "I don't know why people are so interested in what I wear on holiday. Men wear pink these days." Then, proving he has a sense of humor, he concluded, "Okay, not many men wear flowers, but it's good to be different."
And it's good to be hot. His counterpart, the new female face for Armani is Transformers actress Megan Fox. And she is a fox! Catch Ronaldo in his men's underwear poses. He's a turn on. Yes, that's def, hi-def, too.
