Mario Barwuah Balotelli's Girlfriend Is Berlusconi's Babe

THE new lover of football wildman Mario Balotelli is a "bunga bunga" girl, The Sun can reveal.

Stunning Raffaella Fico is said to have attended the Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi's mansion where orgies involving "masks, stripteases and erotic dances" allegedly took place.

The 23-year-old beauty has also dated former Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo since finding fame in Italy as a contestant on Italian Big Brother.

And she once even tried to auction her VIRGINITY for one million euros (£880,000).

Raffaella was pictured snuggling up to a human statue with Man City striker Super Mario this week after he scored twice in his team's 6-1 demolition of Man Utd.

The 21-year-old footballer is no stranger to controversy. He had to flee his Cheshire mansion at the weekend after a firework was let off in his bathroom, causing a blaze. After the Man Utd game he was seen high-fiving City fans in the street from his convertible Bentley. And this week he was pictured flicking through a porno mag in a newsagent's.

His new girlfriend's personal life is just as colourful.

In September 2008 Raffaella decided to capitalise on her appearance in Italy's eighth season of Big Brother — Grande Fratello — by offering to sell her virginity.

Described in the Italian Press as a "showgirl", the model made it to week nine in the house but decided on the unusual plan so she could buy a house in Rome and fund acting lessons.

She simply stated: "I am putting up for auction my virginity for one million euros to see if someone will pay that amount to have me.

"I can't wait to see who's going to pull out the money to have me. If I don't like him, I'll just have a glass of wine and forget about it." Her brother stepped in to vouch for his sister's purity.

He added: "She's never had a boyfriend. I swear on my mother's grave. She's a devout Catholic and prays every night."

Raffaella, from Cercola, near Naples, even refused to rule out a TV programme charting her first experience of sex.

The Vatican were among the strongest opponents of Raffaella's money-making scheme. Critics branded the idea "extremely high-priced prostitution" and claimed a potential TV show would be "a new low for Italian television".

Raffaella turned down an offer of £855,000, leading her actions to be labelled a cheap publicity stunt by critics.

In July 2009 she was revealed to be dating Cristiano Ronaldo, 26, who had left Man Utd for Real Madrid. It was claimed the pair were smitten, but months after they started dating, Ronaldo revealed he had become a father after an alleged fling with a mystery woman and would have full custody of the baby, also called Cristiano.

Ladbrokes even offered odds of 2-1 that Raffaella was the baby's MUM.

But by this point she had been dumped in favour of Ronaldo's current girlfriend, Russian model Irina Shayk. This year Raffaella was in another reality TV show, L'Isola Dei Famosi (The Island Of The Famous). Similar to I'm A Celebrity, contestants are flown to an island in Central America and have to take part in challenges to collect rewards and cash prizes. Raffaella lasted until week six.

It was in March that a bombshell court paper named her as one of the key women who attended Silvio Berlusconi's "bunga bunga" parties.

Prosecutors allege that Berlusconi paid 33 women for sexual favours in a matter of months and that they took part in orgies involving "masks, stripteases and erotic dances" at his mansion near Milan.

Berlusconi, 75, has denied it, saying: "They were cheerful, elegant dinners. The women went for a little dance in the disco — on their own because I've never liked dancing."

He is charged with having sex with an underage prostitute. He has dismissed the reports as "media trash" and says he is too old to have bedded so many girls. He has also hit out at prosecutors for naming the women, because "for the rest of their lives they will be branded with an indelible label: Prostitute".

Girls who attended the bunga bunga bashes claim he bought them jewellery and other expensive gifts and asked them to dress up in AC Milan shorts — the football club he owns.

Moroccan belly dancer Karima El Mahroug, now 19, has denied having sex with the PM but says he bought her a diamond necklace and gave her cash.

Raffaella has not spoken about the allegations and is now happily dating one of the Premier League's most madcap stars. She was first spotted with Balotelli in August — and she is exactly his type.

Before meeting her, Balotelli dated Italian beauty Sara Tommasi, 30, who said she attended one of the bunga bunga parties. Sara revealed: "He (Berlusconi) was very impressed with me and my looks. He said I had beauty and intelligence, I should go into politics. He said it would be a steady wage.

"Silvio is always willing to help people.

"But I told him I just wanted to be an actress."

Balotelli also has form for dating reality beauties. He went out out with glamour model and Big Brother 10 winner Sophie Reade.

But she called the striker a "****er" and a "s***" on Twitter when he later pulled her pal at a New Year party at his Manchester penthouse.

After his first goal in the Manchester derby last weekend, Balotelli pulled up his shirt to reveal a T-shirt with the words "Why Always Me?".

If you keep scoring with women like Raffaella, Mario, it's not difficult to see why.
