Monica Anna Maria Bellucci is an Italian actress and former fashion model who was born in Sept 30, 1964. Monica is considered an Italian sex symbol. Bellucci was born in Città di Castello, Umbria, Italy, to Luigi Bellucci and Maria Gustinelli. Monica started modelling at 16, when attending the Liceo Classico. Initially pursuing a career as a lawyer, by modeling Bellucci helped finance her tuition while at the University of Perugia, but the glamorous lifestyle pulled Monica away from her law studies. She speaks Italian, French, and English fluently.
She is married to actor Vincent Cassel, with whom she has appeared in numerous films and had a daughter, named Deva which was born September 12, 2004. In 2004, while pregnant with Deva, Bellucci posed nude for the Italian "Vanity fair Magazine" in protest against Italian laws that allow only married couples to use in- vitro fertilization and that prevent the use of donor sperm.
