p2pnet news | Politics:- “Milly D’Abbraccio (pseudonym of Emilia Cucciniello; Avellino, November 3, 1964) is an Italian pornstar,” says the Google translation of a Wikipedia post, going on:

“After winning the competition in the 1978 Miss Teen USA started working in television broadcasts in Galaxy 2 and Vedette. In addition to the cinema and theatre, but then decides to accept bids Riccardo Schicchi to join the group of actresses pornographic Diva Futura.”

But she’s decided it’s time for a change, electing politics as her new career.

The two professions make natural bedfellows, but D’Abbraccio, “had no desire to be just another smiling face in Italian politics,” says Reuters.

She made that clear when she designed her campaign posters (right).

“Targeting her male fan base, the veteran of Italy’s adult entertainment industry has plastered images of her derriere all around the Eternal City in a bid to win a seat in Rome’s city hall,” says the story, adding:

“If elected, D’Abbraccio wants to create a red light area with strip clubs, erotic discos and sex shops called ‘Love City’ just kilometers away from the Vatican.

“It would be something cute, clean - nothing to do with prostitution,” the story has her saying, adding:

“D’Abbraccio, in her 40s, isn’t the first adult entertainer to dip her painted toenails into Italian politics. Ilona Staller, known as ‘Cicciolina’, sat in parliament in the 1980s and was famous for her impromptu stripteases.”

But, “It was simpler then,” says D’Abbraccio said. In her view, public nudity isn’t the guaranteed attention-grabber it once was.

Slashdot it!
