Petra Nemcova’s Big Heart
While some celebrities get caught up in the hoopla of Hollywood, Petra Nemcova is using her star power to rally around some great causes.
The Czech supermodel was spotted at the Diamonds Empowerment Fund’s celebrity photo shoot for their Diamonds Give auction yesterday, looking sexy in a purple ruffled shirt, purple hat and a pair of vintage jeans.
And when she’s not helping out the Diamonds Empowerment fund, Petra is focusing her efforts on doing what she can for the Somaly Mam Foundation in an effort to raise awareness about the sex slave trade and human trafficking in Asia.
She told press, “It makes me so angry. Girls and boys get sold as young as four-years-old and are put in animal cages. Some of them never see the light anymore. We met this girl who was 13 and a pimp made her lose her right eye. The words ‘pimp’ and ‘child’ should never be in the same sentence.”
Enjoy the pictures of Petra at the DEF Diamonds shoot (April 16).
