Monica Bellucci is considered one of the most beautiful and desirable women in the world today. Men dream of her, and women strive to be like her. Her appearance is often considered the standard of beauty.
However, as a child, the actress was completely different. Her beauty did not blossom overnight; even her own father considered her a “little ugly duckling.” Only in her teens did Monica truly blossom, captivating those around her with her unearthly beauty. But she began to feel awkward from such close attention.
It was during this time that her father became supportive of her, doing everything he could to help his daughter feel proud of herself and build her self-confidence.
