JAKARTA - The Qatar World Cup will take place in a few months. Before the quadrennial football party is held, let's step back to remember one of the interesting moments at the World Cup. Precisely in South Africa 12 years ago.

WAG Melissa Satta took advantage of the World Cup moment by posing topless in her Italy national team jersey to show support for her country competing in Nelson Mandela's Country.

The Italian TV presenter starred in a photo shoot for Sports Illustrated magazine as part of their special swimwear issue. While she's wearing some painted yellow bikini bottoms, the top is covered in blue and white from her country, which she says is "special".

"It's a very difficult job and they (do) an amazing job. It's not like feeling naked, I'm wearing something," Satta told their YouTube channel after the photo shoot at the time quoted from the Daily Star, Thursday, May 12.

"I've never taken a nude photo, never in my life. But to be here, doing something like this, it's different, it's special. I like to be noticed by other people, I like my body and I don't feel completely naked."

At that time, Satta was dating former Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan striker Christian Vieri. They broke up a year later, after five years together.

After their split, she became engaged to Italian businessman Gianluca Vacchi, according to US reports in 2011.

Satta, who also had a relationship with former Aston Villa player John Carew, later married midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng. The pair made headlines for an explanation as to why Boateng continues to be ruled out of AC Milan matches.

"The reason why he always gets injured is because we have sex seven to 10 times a week," Satta said. "I'm afraid that's the reason for the injury."

Since she divorced Boateng after four years of marriage, her successful career mixed with modeling and presenter has brought her to roles working for Sky Sports Italy.

And she continues to update her 4.6 million Instagram followers by posting sexy photos on a regular basis.
