That video is the reason why Jasmine and Martha should never get a contract ... EVER.

 

You forgot how current Angels looked in front of camera at their starts of working for VS?

Some of them still aren't particularly good at being interviewed. It takes time.

 

Most of the current Angels do an ok job. Some of the ones who had challenges have moved on...

Girls like Heidi, Doutzen, Alessandra, Miranda, Selita, Izabel, Lindsay, Erin and Lily have been great at PR from the start (one might argue that Erin worsened over the course of her Angeldom).

Sure Adriana and Candice are flops but they aren't the majority.

^ Adriana is literally the biggest name VS has right now due to the fact that customers love her and even with the thick accent her interviews are still a lot more fun to watch than the others and there's a reason why VS is not letting her and Alessandra go. Candice I do think is a bad spokesperson but I also think Doutzen is boring as fuck and Erin and Lily are not that great either, Miranda always came off as fake as well as Chanel. Lindsay never showed any personality which is why she never managed to be a top girl and why VS probably didn't renew her and she'll probably go down as the least memorable Angel in recent times.

 

Karolina was a natural spokesperson, Heidi was a natural spokesperson, Selita was a natural spokesperson, Gisele was a natural spokesperson.

 

Martha has been doing PR for VS for over a year now and she is still just as bad as she was before, she comes off as awkward/fake/bored in every video, the best she's done was the Macy's parade this year but other than that just nope. That video was edited by VS people and if that's the best they could do then imagine the rest :ninja:

Jasmine was far from great but at least she made some sorta effort. Not much but still something. I wish I could say the same about Martha. It was pretty much: "Let's get this over with so I could go on my cigarette break" :atoobie:

 

EDIT: The clip is more entertaining if you pretend it is an SNL sketch :p

Valid point, but it's obvious she's so forced, which isn't a good thing, hence why I said it's like someone had a gun to her back :p Martha was boring beyond belief  :ninja:

 

You and sketches :rofl: I think their video reminded me of this one

Except I at least found the Moet and Chandon one somewhat exciting :rofl:

 

EDIT: This one would be more applicable because it's fashion :rofl:

Selita and Heidi are the only ones from that group that I would consider good spokesmodels. Just because you speak English perfectly doesn't mean you can sell something. Like Claudia said, Adriana might not speak the best English, but she is very convincing and believable and that's what is going to make those sales. And she is always seen backstage with papers in her hand doing her research at least. She could tell you every single ingredient or feature of the product. I don't know how many times I see some of these girls like Lily or Behati stand there with this fake ass grin while they're talking and trying to sell something. Like it's one thing not to know much about what you're trying to sell, but at least pretend like you do.

I'll never forget the one time somebody asked Candice what the perfume she was selling had and she had absolutely no clue :rofl:

 

Also somebody who everyone is forgetting but was an amazing spokesperson: Marisa Miller. Everyone signed after her, not good.

I'm probably in the minority but I think Karlie is one of the best spokeperson they have among the Angels right now. She might not be that good with lingerie and stuff and this year she was a mess in the show, but when she talks she knows what she's saying and always bring it and tries to sell the product.

Karlie is wonderful. My fav person to watch was always Marisa. She sold the product so well she always knew what she was selling. I think Lily is ok. She is the most approachable girl I feel. She's the kind of girl you could have a conversation with and that works in her favour. Adriana is hilarious. Everytime she does interviews I love it brcause there is always something funny she throws in.

My favorite past spokesperson are Heidi and Marisa, it's not just their American English that is convincing but something in their voice makes me want to listen, Adriana might have thick accent but she is smart and she's entertaining. But some models like Martha,Jasmine,Lindsay,Doutzen,Behati and girl Kelly Gale all have annoying voices and lack of confidence especially ,well Behati is more confident than the rest mentioned, but they can't sell a shit

Seriously they make me laugh :rofl: That's what the #WhatAngelsWant video reminds me of, either that or a infomercial.

 

On the topic of good spokespeople, I think it also depends on if the girls are paired up for an event and what it's for. I mean when Doutzen and Adriana were paired together for that Yahoo video it was so great because it was just nice and laidback. Girls like Miranda were good when they did PINK or something, as soon as she had Flynn she basically blabbed about her personal life and told everyone to buy KORA. I don't get why everyone hates Lindsay though, despite the fact she was boring she always knew what she was talking about and solely talked about the product, getting to the point, but she lacked a lot of personality which made nobody interested.

 

Anybody that was an Angel (or made one) between 2000-2008 was fantastic, as well as Rosie and I thought Behati was good at times too in terms of spokesmodels. I don't think any model though could currently try to sell me one of their bras because those things look cheap and badly made :ninja:

Rosie would have been in Candice's position has she stayed with VS. She was headed in that direction. She was more popular than Candice. At the time the two of them were the perfect Angels. They were amazing. They would have been a killer duo like Adriana/Alessandra.

+100000000 That's exactly what I think too.
