Adriana Karembeu (born Adriana Sklenaříková, September 17, 1971) is a Slovak fashion model.
She was born to a Slovak mother and Czech father in Brezno, a small town of central Slovakia (then part of Czechoslovakia). Having originally studied medicine in Prague, Adriana gave up her studies to become a model. On December 22, 1998, she married French football player Christian Karembeu and took his name. She was also one of the models for Wonderbra and was very popular in Europe for her Wonderbra billboards. She lives permanently in Paris, but she has also lived in various cities in Europe such as Athens and Madrid. Her 49-inch long legs earned her an entry in The Guinness Book of World Records.
She has been married to football (soccer) player Christian Karembeu since 1998.
