Lima added that about four months before the fashion show she had the team coming to her house to do a plaster mould on her body to make sure it would be a perfect fit.

Supermodel Beverly Johnson has spoken about her encounter with Bill Cosby revealing that the actor drugged and assaulted her when she auditioned for a role on The Cosby Show.

Johnson continued that she could recall Cosby's seething anger at her tirade and then actor grabbed her by her left arm hard and yanking all 110 pounds of him down a bunch of stairs as her high heels clicked and clacked on every step.

The supermodel, who became first African American woman to appear on the cover of Vogue, said that she could not remember much as she was drugged heavily.

Almost two dozen women have recently come forward accusing Cosby of sexual assault.

How new mom Scarlett Johansson got sexy post-baby body in three months



Scarlett Johansson, who gave birth to her daughter Rose just three months ago, has revealed the secret behind her sexy post-baby body.

The 30-year-old actress, whose workout regimen isn't 'crazy-different' since giving birth to her bundle of joy, said that it's just about trying to find time to go to the gym, E! Online reported.

Johansson, who likes to dabble in different things, continued that she has tried Pilates and yoga and all that, but she always come back to a good old-fashioned athletic, full-body workout.

Johansson, who admittedly loves 'breads and pates', also shared, she likes working out and of course, like anyone, she has days when she doesn't want to go, but those are the days when people should go because then they stick to it.

She continued that once she get into a routine of going to the gym every day when she is working, it's easy for her to just keep going and it makes her feel good, but once she starts to slack, it's so hard to go back, especially with lost muscle tone.

The actress also said that breastfeeding has helped her to get back in shape after the birth of her first child.

"It's the best way to get back in shape. I do the whole bit.

"I'm nursing and I love it," she said.

Johansson said she even loves changing nappies.

"The love is just unbelievable. It's very overwhelming," she added.

Johansson is said to have secretly married her partner Romain Dauriac in October.
