Gisele Bundchen can’t say no to Mario Testino. The Brazilian supermodel lets the celebrity photographer photograph her in compromising positions because he is so persuasive. She said: ‘If someone else asked me to do some of the things Mario does, I would say, ‘No way.’ But Mario, with that clever way of his, is like, ‘Ah, Gisele…’ ‘And the next thing I know, we’re doing some picture with my butt sticking out. What can I do? It’s hard to say no to him.’ Mario’s power over Gisele was clear when he convinced her to jump on top of a strange man in his hotel room one afternoon. Gisele recalled in Britain’s Sunday Times Style magazine: ‘I went to visit him in his hotel room after work. We were just hanging out when a friend of his, a young guy, dropped by and Mario asked if he could just take some quick snapshots of him with me. ‘I was in my bathing suit, with no makeup on, and totally unprepared for a photo shoot, but it’s just so hard to say no. He snapped away for about 10 minutes!’ The steamy images are featured in Mario’s new book ‘Mario de Janeiro’.

London: She may be nearly 10 years older than supermodel Kate Moss but actress Liz Hurley managed to outshine her at a mutual friend’s wedding this weekend.
With a daring low-cut black sequined evening dress, the 44-year-old put Moss, 35, in the shade, Daily Mail reported.
The supermodel who was covered up in a green full length dress looked dowdy in front of Hurley, who came with Indian husband Arun Nayar.
The pair were attending the glitzy society wedding of Ben Caring and his bride Elle Perfect in north London.
Ben, the son of Richard Caring, who is the owner of The Ivy restaurant and one of Britain’s richest men – and Elle, 30, held their reception at the Caring family home, dubbed ‘the Versailles of Hampstead’.
And although the wedding was originally billed as a ‘modest affair for family and close friends’ the eventual guest list was filled with famous faces.
Attendees included actor and director Kevin Spacey, artist Tracey Emin, restaurant critic Michael Winner, chat-show host Michael Parkinson and comedian David Walliams.
