August 31, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): It seems that Julianne Moore is a bit too hot to handle even by the European standards! Recently Julianne posed in the buff for a fashion campaign and the billboards were put up all over Venice and Italy. The Far from Heaven superstar stripped off for the ad-campaign for Bulgari handbags and plans had been made to erect a huge promotional poster in Venice's St. Mark's Square.

Venice's newly appointed mayor, Giorgio Orsoni considered the controversial picture a bit too forward for his tastes and decided to ban it. The picture shows Moore, supposedly nude, covering her modesty with a strategically placed Bulgari handbag. Moore looks particularly ravishing in the photo and this is by far one of the most erotic advertisements for the star since she became the face of Bulgari.

According to the Mayor, the picture showing Moore posing nude with bag on a couch was inappropriate for display at the St Mark's Square. In fact the picture was so revealing that it made the Italians go red in their faces. The Bulgari officials have decided to go ahead with a picture showing Moore fully dressed and modeling for Bulgari jewellery instead. Let us hope that the Billboard gets displayed in every other country without a problem!
