Karima Adebibe

British model Karima Adebibe hit the world stage in 2006, when she was announced as the new muse for the video game heroine Lara Croft -- the seventh woman to fill this role. Born in London, England, Karima is of Moroccan, Irish and Greek descent. Clearly all of those disparate genetic parts have come together to create a vortex of hotness. Aside from the Tomb Raider fantasy, Karima cuts an intimidating figure. Her facial features are soft and sexy, but have no doubt, she could crush you between her powerful, athletic thighs. At least we'd like to let her try.

Biography

Born in 1985, it has taken 20 years for the full impact of Karima’s birth to come to fruition. She was born in London’s East End and raised in her family’s ancestral homeland of Morocco until she was 7 years old, at which time she and her doting parents returned to London’s Bethnal Green. karima auditions for the role of lara croft

A natural -- and naturally busty -- beauty, Karima grew up with a desire to be in front of the camera. However, despite some work and a bit part in AVP: Alien Vs. Predator (2004), Karima’s career was going nowhere fast. That’s when she heard that Eidos Interactive, the makers of Tomb Raider, was looking for a new model to portray the cyberbabe Lara Croft.

“I was about to quit modeling,” she admits. “Going to all the castings was getting a bit tiresome and I wanted to do photography. Then this happened. It must have been a sign to stick with it.”

Despite a successful first audition, Karima didn’t think she had a shot at the coveted role. “I don't know if it was a lack of confidence on my part, but when I saw the competition I was up against, I thought the girls were fantastic, and were in much better shape than I was,” she recalls. “I did something really stupid during the casting. They asked me if I had seen the other girls, and I said, 'Oh yeah, wait 'til you see the next two girls, they're so much better than me.'"

Her self-deprecating nature must have worked, because Karima was soon told that she had beaten out thousands of other applicants from around the world to become the next Lara Croft.

Eidos made the official announcement on February 14th, a date coinciding with Lara Croft’s birthday and the 10th anniversary of the Tomb Raider franchise.

Overnight, Karima went from being a virtual unknown to being one of the most desirable women in the world. “I’ve had the most amazing yet strangest day possible,” she said at the time. “I woke up this morning and I was in five or six newspapers and it’s just so shocking!” Karima’s internet presence also rose considerably, jumping from 236 web-search results on February 13th to 16,300 results just two days later.

With great fame comes great responsibility and Karima will now spend the next two years promoting the latest installment of the Tomb Raider video-game franchise with visits to America, Canada and Europe.

She is also currently undergoing an extensive training regime. “I've had to do SAS training, combat training, elocution lessons, deportment, etiquette, media lessons, and I still have firearm training,” she says. “And I have to get my motorcycle license. I actually already started my motorcycle lessons, but they failed me because I crashed into a wall.”

Watch for Karima’s star to rise even higher in the months to come.
