Picture of French First Lady Auctioned

    The nude photo of first lady of France, Carla Bruni, was auctioned off at 30 times the estimated price - at £45,000.

    The money that is obtained from the auction will go to charity. It was in 1993, when she was a highly-sought model when the picture was taken by a photographer.

    I don't think it is worth that much.

    Surely if you just googled it then you would find it anyway.

    Then again, it is for charity. Would you need permission to auction it?

    Never bother about the inflated auctioned price as the proceeds are going to the charity.

    The difference here from other models is that she's the wife of the French President, which makes her picture much more valuable.

    Most of top models have nude photos...;) it's unusual for a first lady to do that, but personally I don't mind:D

    That depends if Hillary has been a model before, in order to fetch that kind of price tag :D

    I think the picture on the first page with that wet outfit on is more tasteful than the actual nudes for some reason.

    It depends very much on a personal perspective. Some feels it's arts that they appreciate, hence it's not the nudity that matters.
