Eva Longoria Giant Maxim Photos

USA Today reports that Maxim has built a giant replica of an Eva Longoria cover photo to celebrate their 100th issue.

In honor of Maxim’s 100th issue, which is on newsstands this week, the men’s magazine has created a 75-by-110-foot vinyl mesh replica of its January 2005 cover image of Eva Longoria in the desert outside Las Vegas. Nine workers took more than 15 hours to build the cover, which is so big that satellites are able to photograph the image from space.

The stunt was made possible by the city of Las Vegas and Google Earth, which will display the image today (www.maximonline.com/maximusa).

“Leave it to Maxim to do something so creative and so wild to celebrate their 100th issue,” says Longoria, who topped Maxim’s Hot 100 list last year. “I guess space is no longer the final frontier. I am flattered, to say the least, to be TV’s Sexiest Earthling.”
