A naked photo of Carla Bruni, the current First Lady of France, just sold at a Christie’s auction for about $91,000 after expectations it would raise $4K at most.

The picture was taken in ’93, when Bruni was a model. Not to say she’s shed those winning ways. This month she appears nude in GQ, following accusations that she used a diplomatic visit with the Queen to plug her latest CD.

Gotta love a quasi-political figure who knows how to play her PR cards. Malkin and Coulter, are you paying attention?

See the $91,000 image.
