Mara Carfagna(full name Maria Rosaria Carfagna) born December 18, 1975, is an Italian politician and former showgirl. After obtaining a degree in law, Carfagna worked for several years on Italian television shows and as a model. She later entered politics and was elected into the Chamber of Deputies for the party The People of Freedom. On May 8 2008, Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi appointed her Minister for Equal Opportunity, a move that received international attention due to her special background and her appearance. Carfagna has been called "the most beautiful minister in the world".After having studied dance and piano, she participated in the "Miss Italy" contest in 1997, finishing in sixth place. About the experience she later said: "That competition makes you as a woman, it matures you...All that stress, that desire to win, it makes you understand who you are." Later she started working in television, for the company Mediaset, owned by Silvio Berlusconi. From 2000 to 2006 she participated as a showgirl in the television program La domenica del villaggio ("Sunday in the Village") with Davide Mengacci. In 2006 she lead the program Piazza grande ("Great Piazza") together with Giancarlo Magalli. Cafagna has also been part of the television programs I cervelloni, Vota la voce and Domenica In. In January 2007, Cafagna was at the centre of a controversy that received international attention. At the evening of the Telegatto award show, Berlusconi said about Carfagna that "If I was not already married I would have married her immediately". The comment caused Berlusconi's wife, Veronica Lario, to demand an apology through a national newspaper, something which she also received. Carfagna herself has later described the comment as "gallant and harmless", and said that she did not quite understand Lario's reaction. Mara Carfagna is often referred to by her nickname "Mara La Bella" ("Beautiful Mara"). She has in the past posed partially nude on several occasions, for magazines such as Maxim. Reticent to talk about her modelling past, she has nevertheless given off that she had certain reservations about the work. On one occasion she said: "I am a bit of a prude and I found getting undressed in front of a camera not a pleasant experience." She states that she is a firm believer in family values, and claimed in an interview that she once refused to take part in a movie directed by erotic filmmaker Tinto Brass. |
