WAG of the Week: Marta Cecchetto

By: Martha | April 5th, 2007

Marta Cecchetto and her man.

Not only is Marta Cecchetto Italian, but she’s also (soon-to-be?) married to a World Cup-winning striker, namely Mr. Luca Toni. I think that might make her the WAG Queen, but I’ll have to check the rules and get back to you on that one.

Our girl has been a model pretty much forever, scoring her first gig at the ripe old age of 16 and never bothering to try anything else. If we were more plugged into the world of models, we’d apparently know that she’s a big cheese on the international scene, and is well-established both in print and on the runway, though I’ll be damned if I can find any of her print campaigns on the internets — clearly she’s been (mostly) avoiding those nude-y calendars of which other WAGs are so fond.

I was, however, able to find a recent — and apparently much-loved — Coyote Ugly-inspired liquor ad that ran on Italian TV last year, so you can see her in action. The resolution is sort of crummy, but she seems more cheery that sultry, a train that makes her ab ti unusual in the WAG pool. (And that, combined with the fact that she reportedly takes much joy in telling people she knew her Luca “when he was a loser” (way back in 1988) makes me think she might be sorta cool, a least as far as WAGs go.)

    last I heard they are not married, but finally engaged after 7 years…

    I like that pic a lot cause Luca Toni is in it!

    I’ll go the opposite of Ashley and say I’d prefer no Luca in the shot, but I’ll take it. I’d expect no less a hottie for him.

    She has the body of a twelve year old.

    I find myself completely distracted by Luca’s arms and hands (and how her tiny tiny waist sort of makes it look like he has love handles), so this is my favorite WAG of the week pic yet.

    But as much as I like Marta’s attitude towards Luca, I think Ilary is still Queen of the WAGS.

    Why do I find these photos kind of cool when Italians do them, but kind of icky when it’s Becks and Posh?

    Total agreement Louise. Not that she isn’t a hottie, but she’d be far down the list of Queen of WAGS. Not even top 10.

    Commenting as a purely heterosexual male, I’ve always thought that Luca T. is a very, very handsome dude. As for his lady, at least to me, she’s the least appealing WAG yet. Mad skinny and she doesn’t even have Police Officers on her resume. Still smoking hot, mind you, but I’ve come to expect so much of the Italian WAGs.

    I actually agree with you, Lazy (though I’m glad Luca can at least offer you some comfort) — but damn, it’s hard to meet Ilary’s standards every week!

    (Pity me and my house spent combing though photos of scantily clad women in the hopes some of them might be dating an Italian footballer.)

    And, Laurie, I think you answered your own question — just thinking about Posh skeeves me out.

    She’s amazing. Nuff said. Definitely among my favorite redheads.
