I'm proud of my culture. Very proud. Why? BECAUSE, I'm ITALIAN. As an Italian woman there are certain sterotypes you simply cannot avoid; i.e. feeding your guests to the point of physical paralysis until the next meal. Everyone loves and Italian girl, from her dark hair and olive skin to her affinity for buying Italian Vogue, just to look at the pictures. Do you love Italian women???

Alyssa Milano

Widget_denridljtmhygboiww0mkl

Alyssa is a smoking hot babe AND she’s a smoking hot babe with a new show. Her new ABC series “Romantically Challenged” is following a 30-something man who is torn in between his needy best friend and new girlfriend. Milano is to take the role of the girlfriend. If there’s one thing for sure there’s no way in the world Alyssa is “romantically challenged.” Because as the guide states, EVERYONE LOVES AN ITALIAN GIRL.
