Well, that’s a wrap! Wherever you are, we hope everyone was able to tune in to Milla Jovovich performing live online with her friends Chris Brenner, Danny Lohner and Alkaline Trio‘s Matt Skiba. The roughly hour-long performance on Vokle.com ended just moments ago, and here’s our coverage of it to those who missed it.

Although the performance started nearly 50 minutes late, at roughly 5:50 PM EST, it was well worth the wait. Spontaneous, inspired, warm, even a little improvised, Milla and friends performed the following set of songs for our hearing pleasure:

1. “Gentleman Who Fell” (remix) – from Milla’s 1994 debut album, The Divine Comedy
2. “The Mission” – Milla’s 2009 collaboration with Maynard James Keenan’s band, Puscifer
3. “Lazy Orbit” – an unreleased “demo” Milla herself has published on her official site

The three-song set was followed by some inspired jamming from Milla and Matt Skiba, after which they threw an “encore performance” of all three aforementioned songs, before finally calling it a day, music-wise (she’s actually right now doing a live, post-concert video chat with her fans via Vokle.com!).

Purple LOVE: Milla Jovovich

Success came quickly to the Ukrainian-born model, actress, and singer, Milla Jovovich — she began working professionally at the tender age of 11. Best known for playing kick-ass heroines in sci-fi and action movies, this glamour queen is actually a loving woman and an extremely romantic soul. In 2007 Milla had a baby named Ever Gabo Anderson with film director Paul W.S. Anderson. She has since found serenity and a new confidence in her approach to life, music, acting, and modeling. We asked Mario Sorrenti, a former lover of Milla’s, to capture her intimate persona.

Olivier Zahm: How did the shoot with Mario Sorrenti go?
Milla Jovovich: The feeling was beautiful and intimate, like we were creating a song or a poem with these photographs. I felt like I was part of the process. Before it was like, “I’m the model, you’re the photographer.” But this time there was a synergy. We were helping each other express ourselves. Mario and I have been friends for over ten years, so I’m very comfortable shooting with him. We care about each other. He’s a friend I totally trust. These are the first nudes I’ve done in over ten years, what with getting married and having a baby and everything. I got married when I was 22 and I felt like I shouldn’t do nudes anymore. Then after I got divorced the opportunity didn’t present itself. I did do nudes a couple of times with Peter Lindbergh, but it had been a long time. I had my clothing company, which took up five years of my life. I was working on films. I had a baby.

Olivier Zahm: Is it because of your baby that you stopped modeling for a while?
Milla Jovovich: Yes, because there were so many other things I was doing. But this story with Mario was an opportunity for me to love myself again as a woman, after working so hard to get my body back in shape. But it wasn’t like, “I’ll do a shoot with anybody.” No, it was with someone I trust, someone who isn’t going to judge me.

In June 2009 it was announced that Milla Jovovich would be joining the ranks of other prominent celebrities in the Kofi Annan climate justice initiative, “Tck Tck Tck”. Milla was among celebrities such as Marion Cotillard, Melanie Laurent and Mark Ronson in contributing vocals to the campaign signature, a reworded version of Midnight Oil’s 1987 hit single, “Beds Are Burning”.

The reworded “Beds Are Burning” single is now available for free music download on iTunes or via the campaign website, TimeforClimateJustice.org. With each download, the re-recorded song is to act as a giant online petition for climate justice. Don’t forget to also check out the newly released music video for the song below or in HD on YouTube, as well as the previously reported behind-the-scenes clips on the campaign MySpace page, if you haven’t done so already!

Andrew Castle: “We were paying attention –”

Carla Romano: “He’s very easily distracted this morning.”

AC: “Yeah, it’s hard to believe why. Cut to Camera Four.”

Milla Jovovich: “Well, yeah, we’ve sort of been sort of doing a little bit of talking about some family history that I don’t think we should actually talk about on camera because yours [pointing at Castle] is a little bit… awkward.”

AC: “Milla Jovovich, ladies and gentlemen. Hollywood star.”
