Leah Wood Eyes Pirelli Calendar
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Models,
Leah Wood wants to appear in a Pirelli calendar. The 32-year-old model - daughter of Rolling Stones star Ronnie Wood and his ex-wife Jo Wood - is keen to follow in the footsteps of the likes of Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and Penelope Cruz by starring in the annual publication, which in the past has been shot by Karl Lagerfeld, Annie Leibovitz, Terry Richardson and Nick Knight.
"I would still love to be in a Pirelli calendar. I also want to work with David LaChappelle, and to be in a movie," Leah said when talking about her ambitions.
The calendar is renowned for its limited availability because it is not sold and is only given as a corporate gift to a restricted number of important Pirelli customers and celebrity VIPs.
As well as wanting to appear in a Pirelli calendar, last month, Leah modelled for Blue Moon Beer's Living Exhibition - a display made up of unique print designs, which adorned people rather than walls - and she loved every minute of it: "The project is very artistic and I love painting. Artists had created exclusive designs for the Living Exhibition and were very hands on throughout the night. Guests could choose which design they wanted on a T-shirt and then watch the whole live screen printing take place."

Quote of the Day: Anja Rubik on Terry Richardson
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Editorials, Models, Rumors,
"Only because I know he would push it a little bit more, in a way that would be very naked and I know that I wouldn’t go there probably. So that’s why it was stupid to accept the challenge because I thought I wouldn’t be capable. And you think...how it’s going to come out, because he has a different kind of take of that, a little bit more on the edge of, you know, I don’t want to say vulgar but on the very, very slight edge of it. There were supposed to be a lot of girls and he likes to shoot a lot of girls with girls and I just didn’t think I’d feel comfortable, that’s why."
