  • Story Text: "Sex with Cindy Crawford," that's the provocative title to a new TV series the supermodel turned actress is making, she announced on the eve of an Latin American tour - AND speaking of sex, she passed comment on Bill Clinton's latest problems.

    Supermodel Cindy Crawford arrived in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Wednesday (August 5) as part of a tour throughout Latin America to promote the various products associated with her image.

    Arriving from Santiago, Chile, Crawford held a press conference where she discussed not only her career but reacted to the ongoing sex scandal that has dogged United States President Bill Clinton.

    "I think it is very unfortunate and it's embarrassing just to hear about it," Crawford said."I think most Americans just wish it would go away but also it is very hard to know what the truth is because some journalists don't always print the truth and so I really don't know what to believe." During her five day visit to Argentina, the 32 year old heartthrob will tape two television shows, take part in a fashion show to model jewelry and will dedicate one entire day to promoting Revlon cosmetics.

    Crawford, one of the world's most famous models, has also ventured into the world of cinema and television, starring in the feature film "Fair Game", hosting Music Television's (MTV) "House of Style", and guest starring in the popular television show about aliens, "Third Rock from the Sun." After wrapping up her visit in Argentina, Crawford will visit Brazil to continue promoting Revlon cosmetics as well as taking part in several fashion shows.
