Carla Bruni Nude PHOTO Withdrawn From Auction After Low Bids (NSFW)

A nude photograph of Carla Bruni was pulled from the auction block in Paris after receiving less than the undisclosed reserve price. A copy of the same photo by Michel Comte sold for $91,000 at Christie's auction house in New York in April 2008.

This time, the bidding started at 4,000 euros and ended at 5,800 when it was withdrawn from the German owner. The French and Spanish presses reported that the image was ultimately sold to an anonymous buyer after the auction for 6,000 euros.

What do you expect? After the Obama's visit; she paled in comparison.

First Lady Obama made her look like chopped liver. France was graced by a real woman and now the great Carla Bruni is not so "great" after all.

I can understand French people...

If Obama leave Michelle to marry Naomi Campbell they won't be that popular...

Crazy people!

I loved Sophia's eyes, but her huge gash of a mouth was always off putting to me.

Could it have something to do with the fact that ANYONE can obtain a copy of it FOR FREE?

Any woman who (from Wiki):

" She has said she is easily 'bored with monogamy', and that 'love lasts a long time, but burning desire — two to three weeks' "

...is both repugnant and strangely arousing (for the honesty).
