London, January 28: She’s got a hunky footballer boyfriend waiting for her at home, but Irina Shayk still has to keep up her day job. And if that means lazing topless on a male model, so be it.
Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo must be a secure man to let his gorgeous Russian girlfriend close to up and coming Vinnie Woolston.
Especially because the couple themselves met through the Armani Exchange campaign. The 26-year-old is seen with New Zealander Vinnie in the spring/summer campaign for Replay, the Daily Mail reported .
Wearing a pair of belted, cut-off denim shorts, Irina uses just a pair of brown leather fingerless gloves to protect her modesty.
Heavily-tattooed Vinnie stares at the brunette, wearing just a pair of jeans himself.
In another shot, the Sports Illustrated beauty can be seen wearing a snug pair of Replay jeans and nothing else, with her bee-stung lips on display.
The pair were also joined by American-Italian model Vanessa Hessler, 24. In a behind-the-scenes video, Irina and Vanessa can be seen getting their hair and makeup done in front of the mirror.
They then pose seductively together in an array of Replay clothing. But while Irina got to pose with a topless Vinnie, Vanessa was pictured wearing a lot more clothes with the hunk.
The new advertisement, shot by Thierry Le GouËs, marks the brand’s 30th anniversary. Vanessa has been working as a model since she was 15 throughout Italy and Germany.
Meanwhile, in a recent interview Irina discussed her stunning looks and revealed that she was teased as a child in her native Russia.
She told Esquire magazine: ‘Boys never liked me at school. They made fun of me ‘cos I had dark skin.’
Irina also claimed that she turned down a lucrative offer to pose for Playboy magazine.
She said: ‘I would never do Playboy. Yes, I am a lingerie model, but I have class. Playboy offered me so much money last year. I was like: “No. Way.”
‘Alright Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer did it. But they did it at the end of their career and it was classy. I think of myself as a cover girl.
‘But I would never do some kind of cheesy magazine.’
