Thanks for the vid, Pink! So that was too racy? If I was going to not air the commercial, it would be because it was rather... forgettable.

If you reread my intro, you'll see that I kept this to current relationships that might have had an impact on the model's career, and Gisele's relationship with Leo is not current, and she was obviously already known worldwide after that so her dating/marrying Tom Brady is sort of irrelevant fame-wise. But I did consider adding her (and Adriana/Lenny Kravitz) because a four-option poll seems lame, but when it comes to Adri and the fame debate with Gisele, things tend to get out-of-hand. But I can add them anyway just to make it more interesting... That said, I'm kind of surprised no one has voted for RHW. I mean, she starts dating an action star and almost immediately afterwards is cast in an action film despite no credentials as an actor. The Transporter I and II? Snatch? Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels? Yeah, the rationale for voting Brooklyn is weak, but someone voted for her. And I think Andy is rather famous in the US - especially after that epic Wimbledon match against Federer in 2009.

As Joe > Average said in another poll, a celebrity boyfriend seems to currently be a model's greatest chance to be The Next Big Thing, so which model has benefited most from their current relationship? Note: to prevent über-fans of certain models from having aneurysms, I'm only including models currently in high-profile relationships that have had a suspicious/debatable correlation to that model's rise to fame and/or subsequent success. 1. Bar Refaeli: started dating Leonardo DiCaprio in 2005, 1st appearance in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Editions in 2006. 2. Brooklyn Decker: married tennis star Andy Roddick in 2009, appeared on cover of the SISE in 2010. 3. Miranda Kerr: started dating Orlando Bloom in 2007, gained Angel status in 2007. 4. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: started dating Jason Statham in 2010, replaced Megan Fox in T3 only months later.

GameTrailers posted Marisa's episode.

Here's Marisa with Captain Jack Sparrow the Captain Morgan dude, which is unimportant. The important part is that the caption says Marisa has backstage hosting duties at the upcoming Spike TV Guys' Choice Awards. thanks to Cartel

^ Looks like Marisa is going the Megan Fox route and making sure she has maximum nerd cred.

Is there a video I missed or something?

^ Go back to the main page and look really, really hard.

Vanidades, June 2010 All (plus one more) as one image: thanks to Cartel

Via E!, Marisa says, "I like a guy that is physical—that plays sports. That, you know, is stronger than me. Which isn't hard, but I like a guy who has a little bit of dirt under his finger nails and someone who could fix a broken sink." The article also refers to Marisa as "M2." Maybe that can replace her nickname of Spikey.

Marisa @ Cosmopolitan's "Practice Safe Sun" Awards - June 8

Damn, I was coming in here to see Joe showing off his six-pack abs!

Who do I think will wear it? Candice. My gut instinct is to go with Ale or Miranda, but VS is obviously in love with Candice. Who do I want to wear it? Marisa getting it twice in a row isn't happening, so that would be a pointless vote, so I'll go with Ale, who has obviously paid her dues at this point. But then again, considering Ale, Miranda, Rosie, and Candice all seem to have the same chest, VS could probably design the bra for one of them and then switch models if they change their minds later on. Here's a chart. And if you dismiss it with the cliche that Wikipedia is utterly unreliable on every subject ever, I'll trout you .

I was thinking of ways to rip into you for this thread before I even got to the second post. But then I saw you included me so I'll only protest your spelling. :morning: Btw, I think PinkCouture has more posts in Marisa's thread than I do. :|

^ It's new, thanks! In news:

^ Probably because sorting all the posts would be a huge hassle, and if the mods/admins did it for one thread, they would have to do it for all threads that reached x number of pages over time. Plus, I think the subforums went to the favorite models of the forum founders and that's it. Might as well keep it that way to avoid arguments over who should get a subforum and who shouldn't.

Why believe that that's the real reason she was fired? The article you posted not long ago claims she was fired over weight issues, yet the quote only supports that Fox was a bitch, which sounds much more plausible as the main reason for her getting the boot - especially in light of the irony that they replaced her with a fashion model. That's true, but with Rosie stepping into Hollywood, she's going to be subject to the same criticism as any actress, regardless of the industry she comes from. I think the more pertinent question is how well someone carries the weight. Even if Rosie is a size smaller than Fox (which I have no knowledge on), Rosie looks healthier and more feminine, so whether she's technically thinner is kind of irrelevant to me. I think you forgot a couple lines though: Whitely: "Oh blimey! Don't I need to know how to act?" Bay: "Not in my films!"

^ I think you could title the second list as "Model threads with the most lurkers." I wonder though whether the view count for the models with subforums is... bloated. For example, three new posts spread over three threads in a subforum would equate to three views from one member to see them all, whereas in a standard thread the three new posts would equate to only one view.

From what I understand Lady Gaga has a very large gay fan base. Maybe they came out in force to vote for her, considering she doesn't seem to conform to most hetero male (and female) tastes?

Thanks for the vids, "Ripper."

^ Marisa is in tabloids all the time?
