The new April/May 2009 issue of Wonderland magazine features an explosive cover story starring Yasmin LeBon.
The 44-year-old Iranian-English supermodel was shot by photographer Simon Thiselton and styled by Grace Cobb in, ‘Make You Scream,’ a car-crash themed editorial that shows Yasmin can still kick some major ass.
In fact, Yasmin regularly practices the sport of kick-boxing, so she can kick my ass pretty easily.
Yasmin has been married to Simon Le Bon, lead singer of Duran Duran, since 1985. She hardly takes on modeling gigs, so this is a rare occasion to be devoured by her fans.
