The shoot took place in a rocky region of Riviera in the South of France last week. Among beauties who posed mermaid-style for the calendar was famous Brazilian supermodel, girlfriend of Leo DiCaprio Gisele Bundchen, who shared the space on the 2006 Pirelli calendar with J Lo, Kate Moss, Natalia Vodianova and Karen Elson.

"Gisele is a stunning woman but she really took it to another level on this shoot. Her figure looked amazing and everyone was impressed with her professionalism, even though she had to hang from rope ladders at one point," said one onlooker.

Gisele was wearing the space-age metal swimming suit and showed off some athletic moves above the water in a black bandeau-style bikini.

Jennifer Lopez debuted on the Pirelli calendar for the first time. The curvy pop-diva was photographed by famous photographers Mert & Marcus on Tuesday.

Kate Moss posed in a topless black swimsuit for the spread of her own. Karen Elson was photographed completely nude in a boat amidst the picturesque sea.

The calendar is due to be released in November 2005.
