How can we get a photo of her on here without infringing on any copyrights? MDesigner 20:21, Dec 17, 2004 (UTC)

Ahhh, I found a site that says that its photos are "believed to be from the public domain." That works for me. I'll dig up a nice face shot and post it up, as well as a link to the site which has a ton of photos of her (yum). MDesigner 06:08, Dec 18, 2004 (UTC)
well, it doesn't seem like it is: it's clearly a VS pic. in fact, i wonder if that claim isn't just the site owners' way of covering their butts in case they're caught (after seeing that on several sites).Frencheigh 06:16, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
    I'm pretty sure that photo is of Alessandra Ambrosio, not Adriana Lima.

I believe that her official "comp card" falls in the official promotional picture category of fair use, and have uploaded that. Source [1] Calwatch 10:55, 11 March 2006 (UTC)


This hand wringing about infringing on copyrights is silly. There are photos of her all over the internet that have been placed "Without Express Written Permission", and a quick click over the Wiki page on Victoria's Secret shows her on the magazine cover. That is the image that should be used here

Whether it's fair use actually depends which article it's used in. (That's the general agreement anyway.) See the text of Template:Magazinecover and the associated discussion page. Frencheigh 01:23, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

the most famous thing about her is she has super eye, best looking eye in the world and it should be posted here

That's not what she is known for, besides it's not NPOV to state it as an encyclopedic fact. She is famous for being a VS model.

[edit] Eye Color

Wouldnt it be fair to describe her eye color as silver? Seems more shiny greyish than bluish to me

[edit] Video Entry

Wasn't she also in Aerosmith's 'Girls of Summer' video? PerlKnitter 21:26, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

No i don't think so.


Hmm, I have seen several references to Jaime Pressley and Kim Smith as two of the three. I thought I had seen somewhere that Adriana was the third. If not her, then who is it? PerlKnitter 20:16, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

no.. it doesn't really look like her. adriana has blue/green eyes not brown and her face is rounder. so i don't think its her.

[edit] Wrong heritage

Adriana is only of Native Indian, African, and Swiss descent. Wrong info. You can watch this video of her at youtube mentioning her ethnic background....No where does she says anything about French,Portguese,Japanese, or "Afro Brazilian"...BTW-Nor is she "Native American"...More like Native Brazilian Indian...Was she born in America? No, so how in the world is she half "Native American"?Cococanelle 05:21, 23 August 2006 (UTC) Youtube Interview

Yes, i realized something was wierd about it.. Japanese?!


Afro-Brazilian is the same thing as African, in this case. 24.186.192.247 16:08, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User:68.13.145.189

I have reverted the edits from User:68.13.145.189 because it looked like sneaky vandalism, which was also a little apparent from the user contribution. I don't know of other contributions though. Others may look into the matter.-- Anupamsr|talk |contribs 15:37, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lenny Kravitz

According to the imdb, her favourite musician is really Lenny Kravitz. So, I think it´s a correct information. User:Mistico

[edit] ?!?!

Wait a minute cause i'm confused is she or isn't she a virgin? i read an interview that she goes to church every sunday too.

[edit] Ethnicity

Funny how no one has proof of her stating her own ethnic background, But I listed the three (African, Indian, and Swiss) from her interview. I will state again she is not a mix of Portuguese, French, or Japanese.

[edit] Trivia

The trivia section is too long, self-contradictory, and unverifiable. It requires major cleanup, with some information being incorporated into the main article text, and other info being removed outright. -Porlob 14:45, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] the heritage

What I don't understand is why can't we keep her heritage to Swiss, African, and Native Indian? There has been no proof of her stating otherwise. She is a mixture of all three from the above stated youtube video.

yeah i dont know who keeps changing it.

[edit] Ummm

Can we get a reference where Lima's father supposedly walked out on her?

Yes. I don't know who wrote that and were they got it from!
