How many of the Berlusconi babes will be MEP's after the Euro elections?
Barbara Matera, one of the named females, is indeed a MEP. Mea culpa.
Background:>
Silvio Berlusconi has unveiled his latest leggy line-up of prospective candidates for the upcoming Euro elections.
Camilla Ferranti posed semi-naked for a variety of calendars and magazines and has also appeared in several Italian soap operas. It emerged last year, that Berlusconi had rung the head of the state television company RAI and "suggested" she be given a role in a top TV series.
Barbara Matera is perhaps the most qualified with a science degree but is better known for her appearance in Miss Italia and her TV career where she has appeared as an announcer and in several soaps. ”I have always wanted a career in politics but I didn’t feel I was ready but Silvio says I am and I think I will work very well in Strasbourg. (...) I feel I am ready for the challenge."
Angela Sozio has appeared on Grande Fratello, Italy’s Big Brother, and was famously snapped sitting on Berlusconi’s knee two years ago at his luxury villa in Sardinia. The group was dubbed "Berlusconi’s Harem" by the Italian media and in other photographs Angela was seen holding hands with the premier.
Eleonora Gaggioli who also has a glittering past as a TV star and a search on the internet for her throws up several photographs of her posing in her underwear on a leopard print sofa. Like Camilla, Eleonora was also named in the so-called Silvio tapes last summer.
How many of these four candidates will be elected MEP's in Strasbourg after the Italian European Elections (June 6) representing Italy?

Premier Silvio Berlusconi's second wife is seeking a divorce after 19 years of marriage and three children, citing his reported flirtations with younger women.
"The impudence and shamelessness of power offends the credibility of all (women), damages women in general and especially those who have always struggled to defend their rights," Lario said in a statement to ANSA.
She also lashed out at the premier's reported attendance at an 18-year-old woman's birthday party in Naples, saying she was surprised "because he never came to the 18th of any of his children, even though he was invited," according to ANSA.
