Not only is Leryn Franco part of the Paraguayan Olympic team as a javelin thrower, she is a catwalk model as well.
Of her modeling, she said:
“Modeling is a way for me to continue with my sport, the hours are flexible, and you can earn good money through photographic modeling and the catwalk.”
This 26-year-old beauty was a runner-up in the 2006 Miss Paraguay beauty pageant and competed in the Miss Bikini World contest as well.
As a javelin thrower, her personal best is 55.38 meters, which does not make her a strong medal contender, but of note, this is her second Olympics.

Meet Rielle Hunter, the admitted affair of John Edwards. You can see more photos of Rielle below.
Rielle Hunter
John Edwards finally came clean today and admitted to his affair with Rielle Hunter (aka Lisa Druck), after much speculation that was originally reported by The National Enquirer. Edwards denies that he is the father of her baby girl, Frances Quinn, who was born on February 27, 2008. He claims that the timing of the birth does not align with the affair, which he says ended before he could have been the father.
Edwards met Rielle Hunter at a bar in New York city in 2006. She was later hired by him to produce campaign documentaries for his website even though she had no experience in doing so. She was paid to the tune of $114,000 for her work.
Hunter would travel with Edwards throughout the country during the campaign and went to Africa with him as well.
The National Enquirer reported last month that Rielle saw Edwards at the Beverly Hills Hilton and at the time he had denied visiting her, but today admitted that he did in fact see her.
More photos and video of Rielle Hunter are below.

Tennis hottie Rafael Nadal has a girlfriend. A secret that has been kept under wraps for the last three years. Maria Francisca “Xisca” Perello is one lucky gal! Check out more photos and a video of Maria Francisca “Xisca” below.
Maria Francisca “Xisca” Perello is Rafael Nadal’s girlfriend
20-year-old Maria Francisca Perello, who is nicknamed “Xisca”, met Rafael in school three years ago. She’s not your typical WAG. You’re not going to see her frequenting the high end boutiques or draped in designer duds. She prefers to keep a low profile and in fact rarely watches Rafael play, so as not to be a distraction to him.
Currently, Xisca is attending a university in Palma, Majorca.

Adriana Lima and Marko Jaric are engaged
The Brazilian bombshell and NBA player have been dating for the last nine months. Marko, 29, admitted to PEOPLE that he “fell hard” for Adriana (c’mon, who wouldn’t?)…
“I was not the person to fall in love easily. I am a difficult person from that standpoint. Now, it’s a little different situation.”
Rumors ran rampant last March that Adriana and Marko were engaged after Marko was spotted shopping for engagement rings. The rumor was dispelled after Marko spoke to PEOPLE:
“I am not shopping right now. But I could start tomorrow. I am that close. I’m definitely not yet engaged, but it doesn’t mean we’re not thinking about it.”
Well…looks like he went shopping after all…
Check out photos of newly engaged Adriana Lima below.

Leona Lewis Covers Blender
The 23-year-old singing sensation talked with Blender about her dislike of alcohol and how you won’t find her splashed across the tabloids drunk.
“When I was 18, I had a few glasses of alcopops - and it was gross. I’ve tasted champagne which is gross. And I tasted wine, which I don’t like.”
She’s fine with her clean cut image and not wanting to bare all…
“I don’t wear little mini-skirts and low-cut tops. If you want to show off your bits, that’s up to you.”

Big time rumors are circulating regarding Laker Girl Vanessa Curry and Los Angeles Laker star Kobe Bryant having an affair, according to a source on the internet. Check out some photos of Vanessa below.
A source revealed to The Dirty that Laker Girl Vanessa Curry and Kobe Bryant have allegedly been having an affair. The source also claims to have pictures of the two together. Once word got back to the Lakers organization regarding this alleged affair, Vanessa Curry was forced to resign from the Laker Girls squad. She was in her first year on the team. Her name is no longer clickable on the Laker Girls website, as it has been removed.
They did not remove this link, which is basically a bio page of Vanessa. You can see more pictures of her there! She graduated from Moreau Catholic High School in Hayward, California, and is a professional dancer in the film and TV industry.
The Dirty contacted the Lakers camp, who told them that Vanessa resigned on her own free will to pursue a “hosting career”.
Here we go again, Kobe…Please tell me this rumor claimed by The Dirty is not true!
