Update: I’ve added even more photos from the Vanity Fair shoot! Check them out at the bottom of the post.
Vanity Fair has done it again!
The famous magazine has struck gold by convincing photographer superstar, Annie Leibowitz, to shoot some of the best and the hottest soccer stars in the world in connection with the 2010 Football (soccer) world cup in South Africa.
Did I mention that these soccer stars are wearing nothing but flag underwear in the colors of the country each of them represents?
This will be the Vanity Fair World Cup Cover for the June 2010 issue…Oh and there’s behind-the-scenes video as well at the bottom of the post. You’re welcome.
Do not forget to check out the pics of Argentinian soccer star, Lionel Messi, posing as underwear model!
The soccer giants selected for the photo shoot includes Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, Ivory Coast’s Didier Drogba, Cameroon’s Samuel Eto’o, and Brazil’s Kaká. And many, many more.
Big underwear brands like Calvin Klein and Gigo have launched their Flag and Countries lines which are becoming increasingly popular. Available at Skiviez, the collection of Calvin Klein Global trunks will give soccer fans from the US, Spain, Brazil, Italy, England, and South Africa the opportunity to dress their private parts in their respective national colors.
Here’s yet another teaser from the spread inside Vanity Fair…
And finally there’s the behind-the-scenes video from the photo shoot, which gives you a glimpse of the many more soccer stars photographed for the Vanity Fair World Cup spread.
