Sports Illustrated presents bodypainted babes for World Cup

By Ahmed Umair on February 19th, 2010

What is a better way to welcome a World Cup than having really hot women with painted bodies in their nation’s football kits? Well, sort of. And what better women can they be than footballer’s own girlfriends or wives?

Yes, this is easily the biggest feature of recent times on Soccerlens Babes. The shoot features four women from four countries: Sarah Brandner for Germany (Bastian Schweinsteiger), Abigail Clancy for England (Peter Crouch), Bethany Dempsey for USA (Clint Dempsey) and finally Melissa Satta for Italy (Christian Vieri). I know USA is kind of out of place and instead Eva Gonzalez for Spain (Iker Casillas) or Raica Oliveira for Brazil (Ronaldo) or Adrian Lima for Brazil (just because she is Brazilian) would have been more compatible; football-wise at least.

Then again, it doesn’t really matter if you get hot women from Honduras to pose with their bodies painted. Here is the loot (click on the image to view full size):
