She's at 1:57 - hold on...

^It is, I guess, an irony of the "nudity law" here - that often when you click on a link (which normally only leads to an innocuous exposed nipple through gauze anyway) you are then assaulted by a barrage of full-on porn vids courtesy of the hosts advertisers!

^I'm sorry - was that VSKylie? You know VS as in Victoria's Secret who you are saying are not honouring 'God'? Hmmm... It might just be me but I'd say drop the VS, VSKylie - and then you'll have more of a leg to stand on and won't be mistakenly taken for somebody still attempting to cash in on their name. But that might just be me... Also, I'd maybe suggest NOT posing in bikinis for Maxim's 2012 calendar as you are in that picture up there (OK, I added the halo). Because, you know, maybe that could be misconstrued too. Bikinis aren't lingerie though are they VSKylie - so I suppose it's all fine in 'God's' eyes. Far be it for me to think you're showing just as much flesh and therefore not honouring 'Him' or your husband - and making divorce rates rise whatever the hell that may mean? Didn't you spout all this gubbins last year (when you were surplus to requirements) too, VSKylie? I'm not "convicted" on any level...

^Superb, mam'selle 'kiki! I don't know what it could be PinkCouture, but it reminded me of this (an old penny post from THE ODDITORIUM) : Evidently Candice got that thing lasered off before the show anyway, thank goodness. What the hell is up with these 'art directors'?

Noticed how they pulled a switcheroo and pretended to have Behati open PINK? ^So they did! Wow - VSFS 'retconning'!!! Not that it shouldn't have been that way in the first place anyways... <_<

^I'll PM you an order! (Source: VSPINK's twitter)

^Thank you! This makes for a much better show - I've put it on loop for 42 minutes whilst I listen to some David Bowie!

^I believe the furore was dependent on these pictures: ^Which were both taken off of pre-show fittings/casting vids. The first (despite the spelling!) was clearly earmarked for Magda - although the 'fit model' looks like Elsa. The second could say anything really, although it's definitely not Emanuela (who ended up wearing it) in the picture is it?! Not much to go on - who knows what was meant to be... *By the way, thanks for all the new twitpics, although it doesn't hurt to check your posts afterwards vanessaaa - it might cut back on these same-page reposts?

^I presume you're both meaning re-signed, not resigned? Don't go getting a man's hopes up! ^Well, yes, I was just pretending not to know for (very nearly) comic-effect!

OK - first things first, is everything in order? Checklist: Random And Pointless (Pretend) 'Director' Voices? CHECK Cutting To Star-Studded Celebrity Audience At Innopportune Moments? CHECK Man Standing Up When His Girlfriend Walks Past? CHECK Then - IT'S SHOWTIME! Or is it? They're still getting into costumes! We gotta go! ^Will they make it?!?! Well, yes, since it's not live and there's no time-limit here really. I'm sure they are all ready, give or take a minute. I know fashion-shows are hectic and exciting. But this isnt a shuttle launch. Please calm down 'Pretend Director Voices'. I don't know - was that opening classy or not? I kind of liked the understated approach, the soft music and elegant ballerinas. In that context Candice as the opener makes sense; her walk isn't bombastic, but that isnt necessarily a bad thing. It doesn't always have to be sturm und drang and ridiculous gesticulations with added face-pulling... That said, when the music kicked in it felt a bit flat, and it wasn't until Ale walked out that it felt in anyway "on target". Orlando stands up for Miranda. Oh, oh, oh, shoe's gone! Broken shoe, coming camera right... ^I don't know about you - but my heart leapt. Could the show carry on? I wasn't prepared. Nobody told us about this. Why weren't we told? WHY WEREN'T WE TOLD???? Nice to know Monica Mitro found Karlie Kloss isn't it. I'd never heard of her before either. This shy girl from Little Bumfuck, Missouri just wandered into castings off the street - but Monica saw something in her. Oh yes, she saw. She saw a ingenue who could pull off a disco-fart monstrosity like no other - and she put that girl on that stage. Mark my words, you'll all remember the name Karlie now. Thanks Monica. Thanks VS... HAIRSPRAY?!?! ^My lawd, I don't know if I can take much more of this. My poor nerves - it's all so touch and go backstage... Super-Buttons: Joan's - ✔ Erin's - ✘ Oh Caroline, but your superpower of invisibility has been working. Ever since 2005... Jay-Z is in the building. I repeat: Jay-Z is in the building. ^It's OK, he's not going to rob you. Ah yes, the 'Passion' segment with it's "Latin, Spanish references". Great choice of music then: some dirge about California? I know we often criticise VS about being too literal, but here? Come on, wouldn't something like a paso doble, or some Spanish guitar actually have fitted this much better? 'Stronger' kind of fitted, but the rest seemed just shoehorned in rather than thought about. But, hold on, what's going on backstage? She's gonna miss her walk guys. SHE'S GONNA MISS HER WALK!!! ^Only she isn't, is she? Because we all know Jay-Z's currently doing a little bit of holiday-camp audience participation and some jolly nice rhyming out on stage really, as we've seen that sneaky scene on YouTube! Not that she was ever in danger anyway. Can you even imagine Adriana missing her walk? I know, right? Unimaginable. It's OK anyway, here she is: What THE HELL was that about? One minute she was a model appearing on a televised fashion-show, the next she was seemingly giving a 'sermon on the mount' and blessing all who came to hear. Ah, the adoration... Hmmm, "Small town, big dreams" - straight from Candice's Big Book Of Clichés. Better yet: "You should definitely not judge what you're going to be by what you are as a kid. Because a whole lot changes." <Yes, Erin - that's called a nose-job. Wow, I had NO idea that the frat-boy and Anne V were together. Wouldn't it be sooo cute if they made something of it? More of Erin's wisdom: "I don't know how they keep coming with unique themes after all these years. But each year is so different." Like this year's 'Super Angels' being nothing like 2003's 'Sexy Super Heroines'. "Unique" is a broad church. Orlando stands up for Miranda (again). Karlie emphatically does not have 'moves like Jagger': Oh, Jay-Z and Kanye are on now are they? You're not fooling us... Look - Erin must be clever because she's wearing glasses: Why? Did you get that out of Candice's 'Cliché' book too? Not that I didn't find that look a little bit (OK, a lot) sexy. Where've you been hiding Erin? Lily thinks little girls watching this show will want to grow up to be "Angels". Well, they might have done - until they saw this: ^Species??? What's with the neck bones? Are little girls the demographic here anyway? Sweary songs, revealing clothing? And what's up with all the pixelated bums? Lais's bum Chanel's bum, BEHATI'S BUM - all got smudged out, much to my chagrin. Grrr... Adriana sets herself up to be adored again. Come on 'Rapture', take her away - where are the chorus of angels, blowing their horns? What more can they possibly be waiting for up there? Surely she should have floated up and off to heaven there and then? Maybe another Super-Button didn't work? Orlando doesn't stand up for Miranda - LAZY BASTARD! Right, PINK - lots of crap on runway and cheap crap dripping off models, a scary troll guards the bridge... Hadn't realised Lindsay had doggy shoulder-pads until then either?! It's over. What, then? Well, Ale is clearly the 'Mother Angel' now - even if you all want it to be Adriana. Play to their strengths, VS: Ale speaks well, and is empathetic (and surprised me the most out of all the models this year, given far more to go with). No need to force it elsewhere, and good to see that they didn't. Ale is 'Groucho', Adriana is 'Harpo' (Candice is probably 'Zeppo'!) - let her manically run about and toot her horn, it's all good. People do love her for that - doesn't mean she has to crack the one-liners, play the piano and sing the songs too. That's why you have 11 "Angels", or however many you have after this... Didn't do much with Chanel now, did you? I still love Behati the most. I dare say all your prejudices have been confirmed regarding your favourites too. It's an exercise in futility to expect much else!

^You can't turn 'Candice Ballet' all the way around - is this butt fascism?

^Possibly - I see the 'Magic 8 Angels' are in this 360° thing too, so maybe it was an attempt to precurse that? The pictures I posted up there were my own screenshots though, so I guess the tFS person just got their words mixed up...

^No, I'm inclined to only go direct from VS. I'm not in the habit of entertaining all these third-party "sources" because bullshit that way lies! Why would you think it was from VSholic?Anyway, you're quite correct - a few hours later it had reverted to how it was. Curious though, wouldn't you say? It's like they deliberately toy with us, akin to a cat with a mouse... :voodoo:

^Me too, Lily was actually the only one who moved like Jagger. (Y) Good impression! ^And thank you (I think?!); no, I merely report the occurrences regarding "Angel" line-ups - it's news I suppose... That said, it's just gone back to the way it was before anwyay! Oh, vsallaccess - how you tease us!

^Ah, I know where you're coming from - but we're happy here aren't we?Don't know what this means - if indeed it means anything:

WPB, No. 50 - December '11:

^Did they even look at all the pictures that came out? Lazy, lazy, lazy - seems like they just picked 10 out of a hat! Karlie's disco fart? Doutzen's giant hair-clip exoskeleton? Whatever the hell that thing Maryna got lumped with (is it because she can't swim?)...Meanwhile - not that I like to instigate frenzied speculation - but Behati and Chanel just got dissed: Who knows, what with the vagaries of VS language, and the simultaneous overuse and particular significance of the term "Angel". Ah, semantics, semantics - do VS realise what they do to us with such whims?! <_<

Hamtastic! <Seriously Candice, you weren't about to do that were you?

Click Here to vote ^Bah - more Limanati propaganda! Save that stuff for the cheap-seats (or 'Babe Polls' as it's called around here! ). We're far too refined! But, really: REALLY?!?! How terribly gauche! Whatever next - what position you'd rather too? Missionary? Cowgirl? Oral? Doggy-style? Get those minds out of the gutter. These are professional models. Honestly, I despair...

^Thank you, I'll be here all week... Nice picture too. From the VSFS after-party, via Mr Bonae L'amour:

^Ugh, that does not bode well for me. Is Behati walking now? Who cares - here's a troll taking a dump on the catwalk... <_< Should post this here too, 'Club Elsa PINK':
