Heather, Stam & Poly are hardly unique looking high fashion models, maybe Elise, Ajuma, Raquel, maybe Stam.
Well I guess unique in terms of what's traditionally considered attractive. None of them would really be 'hot' in high school or college

The only thing I find interesting about Flavia is her resemblance to Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Other than that, she's hardly noticeable in my book.

I was thinking Carmen Kass lol

She's effing hot...one model I'd go bi for.:lol:

I second that, she does look a little like Carmen, I think she's cuter.
 
:flower: i know, but you compared the looking to you face to Gisele, and I don't think she does it b/c she's shy :wink:

Hahah I thought I was the only one who thought that. Same with Izabels.:lol:
Izabel's had the mini life-jacket but I thought that Andi's was out of place.

Anywhoo here are my thoughts.

Gisele-I mean, she is the top dog, but I didn't see her as that. It seemed like she was very green, nothing special in particular.

Adriana-She was only good in the segment that she opened, I don't like her look whatsoever.

Alessandra-She has what it takes! She should have opened something but she was clearly the crowd favourite.

Selita-Don't like her, she was almost dancing down the runway. Wipe that smile off your face.

Izabel-Always great, good to have a VS girl who does great in high fashion. I'm kinda biased.

Karolina-She's not a favourite, only a decent walk, but she was okay.

Ana BB-Seemed bored, I've never been a fan of her anyways, plus she doesn't have that great of a walk.

Jeisa-Where? I didn't notice her.

Caroline W-I am in the minority but she worked well as a flight attendant. I like seeing her in VS.

Heather Marks-It was kinda like "Where?" because we saw her more towards the end but she did okay.

Stam-Forget Karolina, Stam is perfection. She has THE body, the personality, and she is too much fun.

Katja-Didn't see her much but she was good. Very similar to Natasha.

Natasha-The star of the show IMO. I wanted to sue CBS for cutting off her walk. She worked well for everything they put her in, she was so good it made me cry. It takes a special model to do that.

Rosie-Definitely I feel she was brought along for Pink, but she did quite well with that.

Caroline T-I felt that she did good for what they showed of her, I liked the key part.

Flavia-Where?

Andi-I really like her as a model and she is great for lingerie because she doesn't have to smile to show personality and there's nothing I like less than smiles on the runway, Pink being an exception.

Hana-This girl is fierce! Perfect body, amazing legs that put Karolina's to shame, and 3 looks that a smile would tarnish.

Morgane-Hmm, I like her as a model but she didn't fit. For last year they had the candy theme which she fit but she didn't even work for Pink. I think that Lindsay Ellingson would have been more effective.

Miranda-The newest Angel, she wasn't great but better than a lot of other girls.

Doutzen-Ugh, please leave. One of my least favourite models AND she didn't leave any impression besides closing Pink.

Oluchi-Naomi without attitude? That's what I thought. Always nice to see her.

Ajuma-This girl is fierce! I remember early in this thread how I wanted her in the show, and sometimes when I debated with some model fans they thought she'd be all wrong. She proved any nay-sayers. Between a pure high-fashion look with the athletic body to a walk that could make a grown man cry, she had my jaw on the floor. I really hope that this can get her some more attention because she is one of the great underrated models of these days.

Angela-Thank goodness for no snapping.

Raquel-I mean, it's Raquel Zimmerman! She doesn't exactly have the face but she has the body and walk. Plus the image of JT checking her out is priceless.

Elise-I actually liked her. The walking stick was great.

Julia-Never liked her, I find her overrated and closing a segment? Please. Alessandra would have been more effective.

Best girls-Natasha, Hana, Ajuma

Worst-Doutzen, Selita, Julia

Shhh. We've discovered Victoria's real secret: There's no faster way to parlay a modeling career into lucrative sidelines -- and romantic adventure.
The lingerie company became famous in the '90s for hiring top models to preen in their panties and still boasts the world-class Gisele Bundchen in its catalogs. Thanks to Victoria's Secret, Bundchen dated Leonardo DiCaprio, appeared in "The Devil Wears Prada" and made $30 million last year.
With the most recent Victoria's Secret fashion show airing last week, FLUFF takes a look at the skimpy beginnings of these notable, nubile catalog alumnae.
Petra Nemcova
Career highlights: Victoria's Secret led to Sports Illustrated swimsuit fame. In December 2005, her book 'Love Always, Petra' was published, and told of her childhood under Communist rule in Czechoslovakia, as well as her foray into fashion.
Romantic highlights: She was caught in the 2004 tsunami in Thailand; her fiance, photographer Simon Atlee, was killed. After a period of mourning, Nemcova was famously pursued by Bruce Willis but chose to date singer James Blunt ('You're Beautiful').
Heidi Klum
Career highlights: Wikipedia labels her a 'German supermodel, actress, fashion designer, television producer, singer and artist.' You may know her from 'Spin City,' 'Project Runway' or the line of shoes she designs for Birkenstock.
Romantic highlights: She is divorced from celebrity hairstylist Ric Pipino. She was also linked to the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Anthony Kiedis and John Mayer. While pregnant with racing manager Flavio Briatore's baby, she famously fell in love with singer Seal.
Bridget Hall
Career highlights: By age 18, she was listed in Forbes as being one of the 'best 10' moneymaking models. Now she specializes in playing herself, in everything from 'Cybill' to the Sports Illustrated swimsuit special to 'The Devil Wears Prada.'
Romantic highlights: She has dated Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon.
Jill Goodacre
Career highlights: One of the catalog's most popular cover girls, Goodacre played herself on an episode of 'Friends.'
Romantic highlights: She met singer Harry Connick Jr. when she directed one of his music videos in 1992. They married and have three daughters together.
Shalom Harlow
Career highlights: She was discovered at a Cure concert and still models (she is the face of Tiffany diamonds). She hosted MTV's 'House of Style,' and her impressive acting resume includes 'In & Out,' 'Vanilla Sky' and 'Melinda and Melinda.'
Romantic highlights: She was once linked with actor Peter Sarsgaard.
Elle Macpherson
Career highlights: It's only natural that someone nicknamed 'The Body' would find work with Victoria's Secret. She is also famous for Sports Illustrated's swimsuit edition, the Hugh Grant movie 'Sirens,' her Playboy magazine appearance, her own lingerie line and for playing Joey's roommate on 'Friends.'
Romantic highlights: At 21 she married Elle's creative director Gilles Bensimon. She had two kids with long-term boyfriend Arpad Busson, a Swiss/French financier. Macpherson also has been linked to comedian Norm MacDonald and currently British actor Ray Fearon.
Linda Evangelista
Career highlights: One of the supermodels of 'The Trinity,' Evangelista was considered a chameleon for being able to change her hair color and look almost effortlessly. And yes, she's the one who said, 'We have this expression, Christy [Turlington] and I: We don't wake up for less than $10,000 a day.'
Romantic highlights: She was married to Elite modeling agency exec Gerald Marie from 1987-93 and dated Kyle MacLachlan, a French soccer player, an Italian oil mogul and Formula One driver Paolo Barilla.
Naomi Campbell
Career highlights: Possibly the most violent lovely to grace the catalog, Campbell is well known for assault charges. But she also appeared in Madonna's Sex book, in endless videos, has 'written' a book (with a ghost writer) and dabbled in singing.
Romantic highlights: How much time do you have? She's been linked with Mike Tyson, U2's Adam Clayton, Robert de Niro, racing mogul Flavio Briatore, Usher, Eric Clapton, Sylvester Stallone, Prince Albert and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Niki Taylor
Career highlights: In May 1996, Taylor was on six magazine covers. Advertising campaigns included CoverGirl, Pantene, L'Oreal and Nokia. A 2001 car crash resulted in six weeks of unconsciousness and at least 56 operations. She has since begun a comeback, with a line of perfume called Begin by Niki Taylor.
Romantic highlights: She was married to Arena football player Matt Martinez and had twins with him. She also dated Keith Urban before Nicole Kidman got her hands on him. In September, Taylor got engaged to NASCAR Busch driver Burney Lamar.
Tyra Banks
Career highlights: One of the original models for the catalog, Banks found that her C cups were more welcome here than on some runways. Since then, we've seen her on 'The Fresh Prince of Bel Air,' 'America's Next Top Model' and 'The Tyra Banks Show.'
Romantic highlights: director John Singleton, basketball player Chris Webber, singer Seal.

miranda is not an angel. she may be one someday, but she is not one now.

the cbs website seems to be confusing a lot of people, but if she was, she would be highlighted on the vs website... which she is not.

Are you honest about Hana's and Stam's bodies being better than Karolina's? :blink:
I mean I love Stam as you can see, but... well :/ I prefer curves & seeing no ribs etc. in a lingerie show, and Hana & Stam don't have too much of them, at least I don't think their bodies are as great and sexy as Karolina's :huh:

But, each to their own^_^
 
Oh my God how could you say that to Karolina Kurkova's body! And more than that, her legs! Only Naomi Campbell has legs that are as beautiful or comes close to Karolina's legs! hehe

Buuut I was absolutely shocked to see Hana's body, I was expecting her to be a looooooooot thinner.

Agree! Hana and Natasha looked AWFUL in Milan and Paris just a couple of months ago- I was amazed at how wonderful both of them looked at VS!!! I was so happy, I love both of them!! :flower:

I know, but she is the cutest and most attractive, personally, of just about any of the new girls!!! After seeing her little video diary, they are crazy if they don't make her a spokesmodel!!!
 
Gisele-I mean, she is the top dog, but I didn't see her as that. It seemed like she was very green, nothing special in particular.
She cracks me up babbling about not wanting to be photographed with models under 20..When Hana walked past her during the stewardess theme, She blew her off the stage IMO with that walk and angelic face. Same with Caroline Trentini during the Scottish segment.





Selita-Don't like her, she was almost dancing down the runway. Wipe that smile off your face.
Last year she said she wants to make Tyra proud in the future...the way she was acting during the Alice theme...I doubt Tyra was proud..she was going to fast, and her legs just looked akward.




Jeisa-Where? I didn't notice her.
Yea...She looked pissed off on the runway...I don't know what is was.

Caroline W-I am in the minority but she worked well as a flight attendant. I like seeing her in VS.
I could tell one guy in the audience they showed was blown away by her..the look on his face..priceless.



Angela-Thank goodness for no snapping.
Haha I could tell she wanted to start snapping during the wonderland segment. Her hands were flying everywhere...and her pose at the end of the runway was rather odd.

I normally don't consider Caroline pretty. In fact, I think she's ugly. But I have to admit that she looked great in the flight attendant outfit. I didn't even recognize her at first. I was thinking, "Who's that pretty blonde chick?" And then I realized it was her.

The makeup in this show was lovely, because even the uglier girls looked pretty.
 
^^ Yes, of course...And as a public service, I'd like to offer to all the ugly models like Caroline W that you PM me and I will be happy to take you to dinner so that you understand that some of us guys can see beyond your lack of beauty and would like to date you regardless...!! :rolleyes: :angel:
 
what?! you guys think caroline winbeg is ugly?!? She is one of the most naturally pretty girls in the industry!
