Adriana Lima

[Faith Akiyama]

Well, when she's modeling, do you really think she is thinking about the freakin quadratic formula? Of course there is no intelligence showing there- shes modeling!

The MIT part of me automatically thought:
X equals the opposite of b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4ac all over 2a...*shuts up*

So I'm NOT the only person who knows it by heart!

Anywho, I think she looks as smart as she needs to be to sell bras.

No, but look at Sasha Pivovarova's pictures for example. There is nothing empty about them - her eyes have an expression, a certain intelligence to them. It's ok if you disagree of course; to each his own.

^I think you do have to consider what they're marketing, though -- they serve different extremes of the fashion spectrum But yes, to each his own!

Agreed. Sasha is high fashion. Adriana is commercial.

well said!

I guess I didn't explain clearly. Of course you can't determine from how someone looks if they are brilliant or incompetent. But come on, sometimes physical features can impact how you percieve a person's personality. Amanda Moore looks intelligent to me for example, as does Daria. Even Vogue noted that Daria has a "wry, intelligent look" so I can't be the only one to think this way! Not to say that I think that people without that "look" are automatically stupid; they won't strike me as one or the other. But when I look at Adriana, she seems empty to me. I don't see much emotion... take Natalia V. as an example. I think she can look very wise, sad, vulnerable, confident, etc. but I find Adriana to be a little one-note. Please don't villify me, I am not insulting her. I just personally cannot find much expression in her, and that makes me lose interest. Sure she is commercial, maybe that is the real issue for me. She really isn't expected to do more than she does.

This may sound silly...But isn't Adriana mixed with black?I know some of her lineage is Caribbean...So it could be like Haitian,Jamaican,Barbados,etc any country in the Caribbean....Her Japanese heritage is hardly mentioned.

Some stereotype her "big lips" to full "African" lips...You know how blacks are stereotyped...Big lips are SEXY to the 10th power IMO and I'm proud of mine!lmao

 

[luna1576]

It might be in her heritage but that doesn't mean she is directly mixed with black. I've never seen her parents so I don't know but one of her parents could be mixed or even her grandparents so when they say she has caribbean and japanese in her heritage it doesn't tell much. I think for the most part (imo anyway) she is considered an exotic looking brazilian. Brazil has such a mixture of cultures it's really hard to tell what people are but I definately wouldn't consider her black or even mixed.

she always look blank and empty, there's no depth to her eyes like Natalia Vodianova.........she seemed like she just lookk at the camera and pout. Natalia V has more soul to her gaze.

 

[luna1576]

right...I don't think either of them are good examples of models that project intelect. I don't see anything in Natalias gaze either..but I guess Victoria Secret doesn't require as much depth lol
