    Digital Adrianne Curry Smolders Like the Real One

    Sure, you can tell which one of the pictures above is the digital Adrianne Curry, America's Next Top Model and all-around smokin' celebrity, but the digital version still manages to raise the gigahertz level a bit. She's teamed up with graphics cardmeister NVIDIA to create "the world's first real-time virtual 3-D celebrity."

    NVIDIA says the digital Adrianne can demonstrate the same range of emotions, movements and attitude as her own sultry, cat-like real-world counterpart. She apparently likes the idea:

    "I am honored to have been selected as the first celebrity for this project," said Adrianne Curry. "The Digital Adrianne is so realistic, it's really trippy. Lara Croft, eat my shorts!"
    Come on inside and feast your eyes on a quartet of tight closeups of the 3D version of Adrianne:

    These are impressive graphics, but next we would like to see this 3D character in motion. NVIDIA? Send along the video and we'll post it. Better yet, let's have a QuickTime model we can manipulate ourselves.
