“He's eccentric, unpredictable and immensely talented: Mario Balotelli is a force to be reckoned with, he's just fundamentally misunderstood, writes Grant Wahl in this issue of SI. Balotelli, the international star, graces the cover of Sports Illustrated for the first time as the 23-year old striker begins the new soccer season with A.C. Milan.” Sports Illustrated

 

Paulina says: like a lot of women I have a very soft spot for footballer Mario Balotelli, thus I get the fascination and intrigue with him. Loved, misunderstood and probably the most polarising Ghanaian on the planet - Mario Balotelli who is viewed as both villain, baby mamma and mafia stories –and saint, he is celebrated for his generosity and has some pretty impressive fans, both Pope Francis and former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi are fans, –has made the cover of uber sexy Sports Illustrated’s magazine..

Touted as the most “interesting man on the planet” –Mario is photographed walking on water (laughter) and  I just love it…but then it’s soo easy to.... I love Mario and wish him the best. For more info visit: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/magazine/photos/1305/si-covers-2013/
