Formula One driver Jenson Button has broken up with his model girlfriend Jessica Michibata.
Button dated the lingerie model for around 18 months but decided to call time on the relationship just after the Monaco Grand Prix due to problems in maintaining a long distance relationship.
“Jenson is single again. He and Jessica have gone their separate ways,” thesun.co.uk quoted his spokesperson as saying.
A friend said: “Jenson had a great time with Jessica and it looked like things were moving in the right direction. But the logistics took their toll.”
“With her living in Tokyo and him all around the world to races it has been very tough. She was constantly flying out to meet him. And whenever there was a race in her part of the world he’d fit a visit to Tokyo into his schedule. But it’s impossible to maintain that in the long term.”
“Just over a week ago Jenson reluctantly decided that racing must be his main priority. He was forced to make the unpleasant decision to split to focus on his racing. There is no one else involved,” the friend said.

Christina Hendricks jump-started her career on television in the early 2000s, with a particularly effective multi-episode contribution to the medical drama ER. On that program, she played Joyce, a battered housewife given solace -- and shelter -- by one of the female employees of Cook County Hospital. Also in 2002, Hendricks appeared in a memorable role on the short-lived cult sci-fi series Firefly as the seductive, scheming conwoman Saffron (in two episodes, one of which never aired). She continued to find steady work on television, notably co-starring with Taye_Diggs on the short-lived legal drama Kevin_Hill (2004-2005). In 2007, Hendricks took on a prominant role on one of the most promising and original new series of 2007: Mad_Men.
In that AMC serialized drama -- a saucy period show that unfolded in a Madison Avenue ad agency in 1960 -- Hendricks convincingly portrayed Joan, a predatory secretary unafraid to wrest control by flaunting her sexuality. Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
Mad Men star Christina Hendricks has reportedly seen off competition from Megan Fox to be crowned the best-looking woman in America by Esquire magazine.
The curvy actress is said to have scored 30 per cent of the vote in a readers' poll, landing her first place and a cover-shoot for the men's magazine.
Hendricks was closely followed by Victoria's Secret model Adriana Lima in second, while Transformers actress Megan Fox was in third, according to JustJared.com.
Esquire editors will confirm the results of their poll in an upcoming issue of the magazine.
Christina Hendricks combines the voluptuous curves and ample bosom so admired back in the 1960s with the sassy attitude that drives men crazy today. Add in a mane of fiery red hair and a fashion sense that does nothing to hide her assets, and you can see why this young lass has so captivated men of all ages. Size zero models take note -- Christina Hendricks may be starting something here.
Sure, the hit cable show Mad Men is packed with razor-sharp dialogue and a fascinating look at 1960s-era office life (read: scotch for breakfast, sexual harassment for lunch and cigarettes all day long), but a lot of men tune in solely to catch Christina Hendricks’ portrayal of Joan Holloway, a curvy, sultry character seemingly compromised of every fantasy-secretary cliché there is.
The producers of AMC’s ambitious new show Mad Men needed a certain type of actress to play the seductress secretary Joan Holloway -- someone with brains, boobs and bravado. They found her in Christina Hendricks. She mastered the hip-heavy “shuffle” of screen sirens like Marilyn Monroe, and used the costume department to its fullest to emphasize her physical gifts. However, real success came from the fact that she fell in love with the role.
She continues to win rave reviews as the show enters its 3rd season. The producers are so impressed by her work that they have elevated her character to more of a main player than simply a piece of eye candy, a testament to this talented woman’s skill and professionalism (and, yes, her jaw-dropping curves).
If there's anyone who can make the news look sexy, it's Melissa Satta. She and Thais Wiggers are desk dancers on the Italian show, Strip the News, which shows them off at random moments in-between TV outtakes and whiny callers.
Just from these dancing segments, Melissa and Thais are gaining a legion of fans all on their own… but since Melissa doesn't publicly want to take all of the credit, let us be the ones to say it's mostly due to her. Melissa's sexiness also travels off-screen when she's in the arms of her popular boy toy, Christian Vieri.
If you take a peek at her career portfolio, Melissa Satta doesn't have the kind of resume that wows you at first glance. She's got many years and many new escapades just waiting to unfold. What one can appreciate is her diversity of projects. Besides being a fixture on Strip the News and an earlier series Mio fratello e pakistano (“My Brother is Pakistan”),
Melissa has made guest spots on a crime series, appeared in a Gerard Depardieu film and done advertising gigs for three Italian companies. When she was just starting out as a model, she also finished second in the Miss Muretto competition. She could've stayed with modeling, but her choice to do more is why her fame has continued to increase.
BIOGRAPHY
Melissa Satta was born on February 7, 1986, in Boston, Massachusetts. Her Italian parents were in the U.S. for business purposes because her dad, Enzo Satta, was working as an architect. As such, Melissa spent a lot of her early years on planes, flying back and forth between the U.S. and Sardinia.
Even with all the traveling, Melissa kept busy by being active. Her main pastimes were sports-related, as she played soccer and also studied karate, which peaked when she was a junior karate champion and finished third in the Italian championships. Melissa realized at a certain point that she wanted to model, so at 16, she thought she'd test it out in Sardinia.
MELISSA SATTA ENTERS MISS MURETTO
In her early days of modeling, Melissa Satta joined the Venus Goddess agency to help realize her dream. This connection led to a spot in Miss Muretto, a popular Italian beauty pageant. In 2003, Melissa almost won, coming in second. Even though she didn't win the title, she still was awarded Miss Extreme and decided to make Milan her full-time home.
Even though modeling appeared to hold healthy prospects for Melissa, she didn't want to abandon her education simultaneously. After graduating from high school in 2004, Melissa studied public relations at IULM. Even as things were on the rise, Melissa was determined to make sure that she wouldn't track of her educational goals.
MELISSA SATTA ON STRIP THE NEWS
As Melissa Satta's career evolved, many new opportunities came along with it. At only 19, she earned a contract with the Riccardo Gay agency, known for its premier handling of Italian models. She also took the spot of Adrianna Lima for a TIM advertisement gig. In subsequent years, she would get more advertising jobs for companies like Sweet Years and Following.
Melissa Satta also entered the world of television. Her first chance was as a ballerina on Mio fratello e pakistano (“My Brother is Pakistan”). Later in 2005, she took the job that she felt changed her life, a spot as a showgirl for the racy series Striascia la notzia (“Strip the News”). Even though she was just a desk dancer, Melissa was immediately unforgettable to Italian TV viewers, and she and her desk partner, Thais Wiggers, were quickly renewed for additional seasons.
MELISSA SATTA HOOKS UP WITH CHRISTIAN VIERI
Since Melissa Satta's Strip the News gig, her professional stock has continued to rise, while her personal life has started to shine. Professionally, she landed a role in four episodes of the crime series Il guidice mastrangelo in 2006, and a film gig with Gerard Depardieu called Bastardi. She's also made a minor splash in the U.S. by appearing in a Palermo segment for MTV's Total Request Live on Tour. Finally, she appeared in the 2006 parade for Milan's Spring/Summer 2007 Pin-Up Stars fashion show.
In terms of her personal life, Melissa Satta has also been thrust into the spotlight because of her high-profile with one of the country's elite soccer stars, Christian Vieri. While it's a very public relationship, due to their joint fame, Melissa and Christian appear all smiles and ready to make it last. The same can be said for Melissa's blossoming career.
Lindsey Vonn(née Kildow, born October 18, 1984) is an American alpine ski racer. She won the gold medal at the 2010 Winter Olympics in downhill, the first American woman to do so. She also won three consecutive overall World Cup championships (2008, 2009, 2010), the first American woman and second woman ever to accomplish this. Lindsey also won World Cup discipline championships in downhill (back-to-back) and Super G (the first American woman to do so).
With her Olympic gold and bronze medals, 33 World Cup wins in four disciplines (downhill, Super G, slalom and super combined) and two World Championship gold medals (plus two World Championship silver medals), Vonn has become the most successful American woman skier in history.
Vonn was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, as Lindsey Caroline Kildow and raised in the Twin Citiesmetro area, in Burnsville. She was on skis at age 2 before moving into Erich Sailer's renowned development program at Buck Hill, which also produced slalom racer Kristina Koznick. Her father, Alan Kildow, who had been a national junior skiing champion before a knee injury at 18, "pushed" her very hard, according to Sailer.
When she was ten years old, she met Olympic gold medal skier Picabo Street, whom she considers her heroine and role model. Their meeting made such an impression on Street that she remembered the meeting and later would serve as Vonn's mentor in skiing. Vonn commuted to Colorado to train for a couple of years before her family moved to Vail in the late 1990s.
Vonn has attended the University of Missouri. Vonn's nicknames are "Kildon," "Don Don" and "The Don." Her hobbies include cycling, tennis, reading, and watching NBC-TV's Law and Order. She enjoys listening to hip hop music, especially rapper Kanye West.
She married fellow 2002 Olympian and former U.S. Ski Team athlete Thomas Vonn on September 29, 2007, at the Silver Lake Lodge in Deer Valley, Utah.
During the European racing season, the U.S. team stayed in Kirchberg. The most unusual of Vonn's trophies also lives in Kirchberg: Olympe the cow. Vonn kept the oversized pet instead of the check for her 2005 win in Val D'Isère.
She also frequently stays at the home of her friend and major competitor, alpine skier Maria Rieschin Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. Traditionally, Lindsey and Thomas Vonn spend Christmas Eve at the Riesch family home. Vonn is fluent in German.
At the 2010 Winter Olympics, Vonn planned to compete in five events. On February 10, she revealed that she had a bruised shin. Vonn said the pain from her injury was "excruciating" and she would have a difficult time competing at the Winter Olympics. Due to unseasonably warm weather and resultant poor snow conditions, many of the Alpine skiing events were moved back, giving Vonn additional time to heal. On February 17, in her first event, Vonn won the gold medal in the downhill, besting longtime US rival Julia Mancuso by 0.56 seconds, becoming the first American woman to win an Olympic gold medal in downhill.
In her second event, the super-combined, Vonn finished first in the downhill portion of the race. However, in the slalom portion, she crashed out because she failed to get her ski around a right-hand gate. Vonn said her shin wasn't the problem. Vonn's friend, Maria Riesch, won the gold, and teammate Julia Mancuso earned the silver medal.
In her third event, the super-G, Vonn finished third behind Andrea Fischbacher and Tina Maze. Vonn was 0.74 second back from first place. On the last part of the race, Vonn said she didn't ski as aggressively as she could have and lost the race because of it. After the race, questions were raised about the setup of the course. Vonn's husband, Thomas, said the course was deliberately set up against Vonn. Austrian coach Juergen Kriechbaum denied any wrongdoing.
In her fourth event, the giant slalom, visibility was reduced by thick, low fog. Vonn crashed in her first run, resulting in a broken fourth finger and Vonn's disqualification from the event. In her fifth event, the slalom, Vonn lost control and straddled a gate, disqualifying her from the event.

Personal Quotes
All humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes. I mean, I could see myself in a relationship with a girl.
I love the high-risk (guys). I don't like cream puff, corny guys. Usually they are the nice guys, the ones that won't hurt you. They'll pull out the chair for you and the whole nine yards. Everything is perfect and boring. I like the risk, I like the edge. That's the thrill for me.
[On Fashion] Wear the clothes. Don't let them wear you.
Sexiness
We love a girl with a voluptuous body, and Rihanna's dance skills demonstrate how flexible and limber she can be. She started hitting AskMen.com's Top 99 Women charts at the tender age of 18, coming in at No. 20 in 2007, No. 8 in 2008 and No. 8 in 2009. We could describe her sexiness all day, or you could Google her music video for "Rehab," featuring Justin Timberlake, and watch her roll around the hood of a red convertible in a green bikini and get an idea for yourself.
Why Famous?
Even if Rihanna seems to have a bit of a stutter (ella, ella, eh eh eh) who wouldn't want to stand with her under her umbrella? Rihanna brought a little Caribbean heat to the summer of 2005 with the smash hit "Pon de Replay." She instantly caught the attention of the likes of Jay-Z and Sean Paul, and in 2007, when she released her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, all signs indicated she would be a massive success. Her fourth studio album was released in November 2009, entitled Rated R, and it is Rihanna's highest
