AGE: 25

BORN: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

DISCOVERED: By a modeling scout on Guarapari Beach, just north of Rio, the same beach where Ana Beatriz Barros was discovered.

SI RÉSUMÉ: This is Fernanda's fourth appearance (2004, 2005, 2006) in the Swimsuit Issue.

DID YOU KNOW? Fernanda loves to play tennis and soccer, and she is a fan of Brazil's national soccer team and of Fluminense, a club based in Rio. Though she lives in New York City, Fernanda's heart is in Florianoplis, which lies south of Sao Paolo, Brazil, and has lakes, sand dunes, and tiny islands. "It has 42 beaches -- can you believe it?" says Fernanda. "It's paradise."
