Angelina Jolie Modeling Photos

Angelina Jolie has always been a rebel. At age 14, she dropped out of acting class and decided to become a model instead.

Japan–U.S. Bikini Show

TOKYO — Playboy’s Miss February 2008 Michelle McLaughlin, 23, showed her form at an event in Tokyo this week to promote the Playboy Channel on SKY PerfecTV! The Californian beauty wore an aqua bikini that made it quite clear why she was chosen as Playboy’s Playmate of the Month in February last year.

Beauty queen slammed

She was joined by Channel Ruby star Yuzuka Kinoshita, 21, who was determined not to be outshone by her American rival. The voluptuous duo frolicked about on stage but McLaughlin had a little trouble getting up in her high heels after they spent some time posing for shots on the floor.

McLaughlin, a fan of the San Francisco Giants in Major League Baseball, said she also likes the Yomiuri Giants in Tokyo. When asked if she liked Japanese men, she said: “I like their dark hair, but they have to be handsome.”

Waka Inoue releases 2010 calendar

TOKYO — Bikini model-turned-actress Waka Inoue, 29, was at the Fukuya bookstore in Ginza this week to promote her 2010 calendar, and shook hands with her fans who had applied for the special tickets last month.

The calendar doesn’t have any shots of her in a bikini this time, but there is one of her rolling around in bed with the sheets, and other photos feature her in dresses which reveal her curves and thighs. She said: “This was my last photo shoot in my 20s, and will be my first calendar for my 30s. I want people to focus on the adult in me coming out.”

Inoue is rumored to be in a passionate relationship with actor Shigeyuki Totsugi, 35, and when asked about it she said: “Talking about it is a bit embarrassing, but maybe you can judge by my expression,” letting a big smile do the talking for her. Another reporter asked her if she was going to put one of her calendars in Totsugi’s home, and Inoue said she thought that was a good idea.
