Miranda Kerr, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley & More Go Nude at Necker Island

Filed under: Books

The world's sexiest new supermodels pose sans clothes at Richard Branson's Necker Island paradise in a massive new monograph from famed photographer Russell James. V2 from uber-luxe publisher teNeues showcases the girls James believes will be the superstars of the new era, including Miranda Kerr, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Candice Swanepoel and Brooklyn Decker (on the cover, above). The Australian lensman, a connoisseur of the female form, has shot numerous ad campaigns for Victoria's Secret as well as sizzling spreads for Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue. In V2 he presents the gifted goddesses in the natural splendor of Necker Island, Vrigin mogul Richard Branson's luxe tropical retreat. We're sure Branson was only too happy to play host to the bevy of naked beauties. See the gallery for an SFW preview (you'll have to buy the book to get the full treatment).

Now that she's married and expecting Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr is leaving her single-girl residence behind. The Wall Street Journal reports that Kerr has put her one-bedroom condo in the Jade Building in New York's Flatiron District on the market for $1.395 million (listed with Jaf Glazer of Conquest Advisors). Kerr married actor Orlando Bloom earlier this year and the pair are living in Los Angeles (in a four-bedroom home he bought in 2007 for $2.75 million). The Jade apartment is a corner unit on the tenth floor. It has floor-to-ceiling windows and two Juliet balconies.

The Jade is named for Jade Jagger, who helped design the project. Kerr's loft-style 904-square-foot condo has a pod-like free-standing cube in the center of the apartment that holds a small kitchen area and the bathroom. The cube has an oversized shower with a glass wall facing the middle of the 26-foot-wide living room. The WSJ reports that Kerr signed a contract to purchase the apartment for just under $1.1 million in 2006. Amenities for the building include two floors of shared terraced space with a reflecting pool and soaking tubs, a fitness room and a Moroccan-themed lounge.

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show - A $3 Million Bra and some Crazy Photos

Every year, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is crazier than the last. This year, at the Lexington Avenue Armory in New York City, we saw an array of outfits that were by equal turns beautiful and baffling. We love how Victoria's Secret always manages to dress the Angels in elaborate designs that sit just next to their bodies -- giant wings and capes that cover nothing ... you'll see what we mean in the gallery.

Pictured here is the most expensive item of the evening, the diamond-clad three million dollar bra, being caressed by Marisa Miller, who had the privilege of wearing it. Honestly, it's a bit of a yawn, but we'd feel cheated if they hadn't BeDiamonded something. What's really fun is the crazy pictures in the gallery. It's only once a year that models get to dress up like harlots from the future and it's like, a big honor. So check it out.

These outfits speak for themselves, but that didn't stop us. Why did we include some of the most awkward pictures? Because we're jealous. Enjoy.
