Miranda Kerr (December 2004 - June 2009)

[CarMELita]

Honestly I don't know why people keep making her lower around here. If they're not interested in Miranda's work why even bother posting? Why even bother looking at her pictures? Why not go around to some high fashion model's thread an talk about how high fashion is the only way to become an internationally well-known model! Haha!

And why do people try to make her bigger than she is? The last poster said she'd have a line of health foods for goodness sakes. She is a lingerie catalog model...that is her claim to fame. She is not the messiah of modeling or health. She is a pretty girl who knows that her body has gotten her far and she knows how to work it.

Correspondence course? I thought she went to school and actually got a degree? But hey a correspondence course is better than most models.

Miranda's done very well for what she is. She was never high fashion, she doesn't have the look. She's clearly commercial although I am a little suprised she's not bigger than she is. She was being promoted very heavily about a year ago. I expected make up contracts, more major magazine covers etc. She hasn't even appeared on the cover of Australian Vogue or even more suprisingly in Sports Illustrated yet but it's just further proof that the days of the Supermodel are over. It's just a bunch of random girls who come and go now.

Here's a picture of Miranda's dress from the Fontainebleau Resort.

She really should wear more blue, the color looks stunning on her IMO

I second that. Nevertheless this is her thread in "Supporting cast". It's here to support her and her work - or at least this is how I understand its function. Isn't it only natural that those who support her will argue with those who doesn't like or critisize her?
I'm not talking about anyone in particular but I'm curious to know why people are going to a supporting thread while well aware that a negative comment is likely to start an issue. I'm not saying one is not allowed to give one's opinion, I'm just wondering.

And I don't think that anyone who doesn't know her personally has got the right to question her intelligence referring to the comment about her having a correspondece course on nutrition.

Anyway, personally I do think Miranda's one of the cutest things around and I'm really sad she's not getting more advertisements. I wonder if it's just because the VS stamp on her forehead is growing steadily.

All you have to do is watch one of her interviews to judge her intelligence. But that's okay, she's a model, she's not paid to be smart. That's all I'm saying. And, I did say that I thought she was a pretty girl with a beautiful body, but her strength is catalog. That was the point.

[CarMELita]

I agree with your "point" then :-)

Besides being Bloom's latest arm candy, she's just another pretty but vacant panty model. Sorry, but that's the truth.

She has said plenty of times in interviews that she will be making the most of her life now and I dont mean straight away but she will branch out of "catelogs" and into other things.. Shes already writing a book isnt she? And just because shes not that well known in the US doesnt mean she wont be.. and besides being big in Australia is a very good thing we're not a tiny little country or anything..

Whos know what she will do but shes smart and she knows what shes doing and IN MY OPINION we will see plenty more of her in the future apart from catelogs.. And health foods (im sure if she was going to do that she'd study it even further) was only a suggestion whos know what will happen i was just trying to give some examples of what she could do.. Plenty of models branch out into other things so why cant she? People underestimate Miranda I think..

Wow, please tell me you are not being serious. so you are ready do judge a person by an interview and recommened her character through a interview! Oh because you know the type of person she is, you know what she has been through, you know everything about her and her history Just because she is a model it doesnt mean shes not smart, we shouldnt down-grade her just because of her occupation. I mean if you knew her and were very close to her in a personal level then make those type of judgements But dont call her dumb through an interview, she could be nervouse she may not be at her best while being interviewed...

Anyways, Miranda is a lovely model, a breath of fresh air in this industry, and I dont think we should comment in this thread if we only come here to down-grade her, if you dont appreicate her then go to a thread of a model you do appreciate.

Here's an article about Miranda Kerr, "An Angel Takes Flight", in the web version of Ocean Drive magazine:

I saw her in Venice a few days ago! i was there on holidays and my boyfriend goes 'is that Miranda kerr?' she was there doing a photo shoot for David Jones i believe. Not many people looking, i don't think she's well known in Italy! hehe.
I took a few photos, i'll post them later as they're still on my phone and i just got home and am very jetlagged

She's quite pretty in person but a bit too tanned..not that impressive, she looks better in photos. She's very funny though..I've always liked her in interviews and I don't think she's dumb like people make her out to be, I really like her!

She was so funny, she said to the guy that she always likes to shoot with her hair in a ponytail and then when the shoot was over she goes ' i need to pee! can we go back to the hotel?' i'll post photos soon!

They’re usually the centre of attention but today Orlando Bloom and model girlfriend Miranda Kerr played the role of sight-seeing tourists as they enjoyed a romantic pre-holiday vacation in Venice, Italy.

The picture perfect couple walked arm-in-arm and enjoyed the scenery together, even snapping photos like us mere mortals.
Meanwhile, rumour has it Orlando has proposed to his Victoria’s Secret Angel and the pair are reportedly planning to walk down the aisle in late 2009.
A source tells UK’s Metro: “They are talking about getting married in a year. They have had a crazy year, but they love each other and she wants to be his wife.”
Can you blame her?
