E! entertainment television names Victoria Secrets’ supermodel Karolina Kurkova the Sexiest Woman in the World. In earning the honor, the Czech-born beauty beat out fellow Victoria’s Secret models Gisele Bundchen, Adriana Lima and Heidi Klum, who placed fourth, sixth and seventh on the list, respectively.
Some of you may not know that as smooth as her body looks, Kurkova has no belly button. That’s right. She had an abdominal operation as an infant and now does not have one. Read the rest to see how they add the belly button to her pictures.

Buzz over Kurkova’s unique abdomen began to build recently, following a Victoria’s Secret photo shoot in Miami, which featured the 24-year-old model in a bikini and sporting a seemingly absent navel - a departure from some of her shoots in the past, which have showed her with a navel.
Kurkova’s rep confirmed her lingerie and swimsuit photos are often altered to include an image of a navel - a practice that the rep said is typical in the industry when needed.
Belly button or not, there’s no denying Kurkova’s sex appeal - and her success speaks for itself, as Forbes has ranked her as one of the world’s highest-paid models.
And while Kurkova has been dubbed sexy, she has her own idea of what sexy really means.
“A guy who’s not afraid to cry or be vulnerable and show his softer side,” she told AccessHollywood.com in a previous interview.
Second place on E!’s sexiest list went to Israeli model Bar Rafaeli, who has been linked to Leonardo DiCaprio.
Coming in third was Angelina Jolie, while Tom Brady’s babe, Bundchen, finished fourth and Scarlett Johansson rounded out the top five.
