A-Z Challenge 2012: U is for Ursula Andress!

It is the 21st post in the April 2012 A-Z Blogging Challenge - and I think the time has come to bring out a little of the Eye Candy we like to spotlight around here. And, why not make it a Bond Girl. In fact, let's make it the First Bond Girl as...

U is for Ursula Andress!












And here's the famous scene now - Ursula Andress as Honey Ryder - emerging from sea in Dr. No.





That is not Ursula Andress's voice - talking or singing. She was dubbed for the whole movie, as Cubby Broccoli thought she sounded like "a Dutch comic."



Regardles of whose voice box she was using in the movie - she was a gorgeous specimen of womanhood - and started a fine tradition of lovely ladies appearing as the female leads in the James Bond movie series.





She looked good in other movies too:




V only have a few more posts to go in this challenge - please come back for the next one and until that post you Can Poke Me With A Fork, Cause I Am Outta Here!

  6. Fuck all the other Bond girls (pun intended), Ursula Andress is a goddess and definitely the hottest woman in Bond history.

    1. There you go! I have to agree - she's pretty much flawless. I have a real soft spot for Sophie Marceau too.
