Have you seen the story of Adriana referring to Lemmers as her future husband? Has he asked her to marry him? In any case, another relationship in which Adriana seems too committed too quickly, let's hope she has a happier ending this time than the other times. Edit: I just saw that you are already talking about it in the candids thread.

This pic is especially bad for her.

Totally agree. It has always happened to Adriana that every time she gains some weight, it's immediately noticeable on her face, it's something quite common in latin women, too.

Candids
Hate to say it, but I don't like her look for this event at all. Her face seems quite puffy and the dress so covered concentrates the attention on her face, that in Adriana's case is usually good because her face is amazing, but this time... nope.

She's killing it! So gourgeous

Candice Swanepoel
Just drop it, guys. No one really knows what kind of relationship Candice has with that man, whether they are boyfriends, a short summer affair, or just two friends or acquaintances, time will tell. Personally, I don't think it's anything serious, if there is something between them. But you are taking this to a very personal level.

He is not ugly at all (beautiful eyes, good body), although he has something, I don't know what, that makes me personally not quite like him as much as you do. But he is much more handsome than Joe or the two Turks. For now the only thing I know about him is that he is a film producer (not very famous, from what I see), but in principle I like him for Adriana. They make a good couple and she looks very happy with him, I hope they last and everything goes very well for them. Now, changing the subject, yesterday was Donatella Versace's birthday and while much of the industry congratulated her on her birthday, Adriana still doesn't take care of those kinds of little details that are important in a business as superficial as the fashion industry.

Doutzen Kroes
In the Netherlands I believe that she has practically destroyed her image and has canceled herself with the lot of dangerous idiocies that she has published throughout these months, when the help of many "influencers" was needed to raise awareness about the danger posed by this pandemic, she has not only not helped but has dedicated herself to spreading false and dangerous information. It would be stupid for any dutch brand or magazine to want to associate with Doutzen Kroes, "the stupid anti-vaccine denier", because in the Netherlands everyone knows what she has done and continues to do during the pandemic. But perhaps in other countries she can continue working relatively normally, I'm from Spain and here literally no one has found out about the stupid things that she has been doing and saying on Instagram, she isn't famous at all in Spain and I imagine it will be like that in many other countries, I don't think that in Italy, USA or Russia they have found out all the nonsense that she has said. So I can perfectly believe that Vogue Spain (or Vogue from many other countries) work with her. In fact, how many people in the fashion industry have we seen tell her to stop lying and spreading dangerous anti-scientific ideas? If I remember correctly, no major editor, designer, model or photographer has said anything to her. In fact, several well-known models (Candice, Joan, Miranda, Gisele, Lilly, etc ...) often comment heart or clapping hands emojis in her posts on Instagram. The fashion industry is cruelly superficial, as long as people don't find out, they don't care from working with sexual abusers to dangerous deniers and I'm not saying that a sexual abuser is the same as an anti-vaccine denier, but the important thing is that as long as these incidents don't affect the image of the brand, they will turn a blind eye.

Candice Swanepoel
I didn't know that Candice and Irina had lived in the same apartment, it must have been many years ago, I thought that their friendship was more recent. Cool to know.

Doutzen Kroes
It's hard to believe how instead of gradually coming to her senses, she becomes more and more conspiranoid, publishing even more crazy and dangerous stupid things. What began with a video that we all believed was a bit unfortunate (the famous "Thank you, Covid-19") and that people attacked him more than necessary because his intentions were not bad, has degenerated into a very dangerous spiral of conspiracies and dangerous beliefs. By now, I am beginning to worry about her children. With a mother so disturbed and with a father who seems to do nothing to stop his wife and mother of his children from publishing dangerous theories, I only hope that the poor children do not have any health problems because their health could be seriously threatened.

Candice Swanepoel
Lais seems like a very nice and friendly girl, a girl that everyone gets along with. Lais is friends with Adriana, Candice or Doutzen, but also with the new generation of models like Josephine, Jasmine, Shanina or Sara. It reminds me a bit of Lily Aldridge, who all her co-workers adored her.

General Discussion
Completely agree with what you comment, @Marsnoop @lucyford. Adriana is not Irina Shayk, in the sense that Irina (for example) is always hanging out with designers, editors and other important people in the industry, and I LOVE Irina, she is an amazing model, but surely she wouldn't have so much success and so much work if it weren't because she knows how to win and keep the important contacts in the industry. Adriana's circle of friends is very small and highly concentrated in Miami, which is normal because she has lived in Miami for many years, but Miami isn't an important city in the fashion industry. Her friends from the gym aren't going to get her a Vogue cover. It's something that fans have always commented a lot about Adriana, that we miss seeing her surrounded by people from the industry, but that is a personal decision and I respect that she did not want to get involved beyond what is strictly necessary. Plus, she's the mother of two little girls, and if she's also working on launching her own makeup and skincare line, it might be too much work for her.

She is Adriana Lima, one of the most successful models of this century, surely she has made many contacts and has learned a lot about how the industry works, but I don't know if this of not having the help of an important agency added to the fact that she seems not knowing how to use her RRSS quite well to promote herself like all models do... I don't know, her decision creates doubts, I just hope that she has more jobs than in recent times. It's not like it's very relevant, but that her professional email is a gmail with her last name and her age... it seems somewhat amateur considering that we are talking about such a successful model.

Bella Hadid
She really needs to stop spoiling her face, every day I see her a little more like Melania Trump and she's only 23 years old, it's shocking.

General Discussion
I wouldn't be surprised if it was Joe who is behind that Instagram account, it seems something so typical for a person like him. But yes, it doesn't mean absolutely nothing that Joe had a fiancée and that they seem happy, everyone seems happy on Instagram, then the reality can be so different. Adriana also seemed very happy with Joe and surely the argument they had in Cannes was not the first, nor the second or third.

General Discussion
Oh, yes, that is true. I thought @wickedgame was referring to the whole relationship, which was not brief. The breakup was very sudden and forceful, it was not like with other boyfriends that she has broken up with but then she follows them on IG or they even saw each other again. With him, since that day, she hasn't had contact of any kind, not even follow or likes on Instagram (at least as far as I know). And we know this is rare for Adriana. And it better be that way, I also suspect that something serious happened in Cannes, I don't want to venture to say things that I don't know for sure, that are very serious and that I really wish they had not happened. I don't know what has happened to him since then, I remember reading that he works in another gym somewhere else in the country. Anyway, no interest in him. As we all know, Adriana hasn't had much luck/taste choosing a boyfriend, but this has undoubtedly been the worst, in my opinion, even worse than Metin.

General Discussion
@wickedgame I wouldn't say she dumped him really fast, I think they were together for a little over a year. Basically I think he was an extremely possessive and jealous boyfriend, it had to be a pretty toxic relationship. Adriana seemed so in love with him, but I suppose she reached a point where she couldn't take it anymore. I read that they broke up in Cannes. When you are such a possessive and jealous person, being the boyfriend of a woman like Adriana Lima cannot end well.

Doutzen Kroes
I think by now it's clear that she isn't doing anything interesting with her career largely because of her ideas. But yes, I agree with what @bump says, there are pics in which she seems older than other models of the same age like Natasha Poly (she's so amazing ) or even a few years older than her (like Adriana or Alessandra). But it's not just that she looks a little older in some pics, it's that she gives me the feeling that she's a little haggard. Probably it's because all those mystical treatments and diet that she follows, which are discouraged by most doctors. And I also agree that deep down she's a good and well-meaning person, she isn't sharing all this bullshit to get money, she doesn't sell anything, plus she doesn't need it. She is simply deluded but she's so stubborn (and sorry to say, but she doesn't seem like the smartest person on the planet either) to get out of those mystical frauds.

Doutzen Kroes
The most disappointing thing about Doutzen's 2020 is not a wrong post (or even a very wrong one, like the one she made "thanking" Covid-19), but the persistence in publishing dangerous bullshit, lies and conspiracies one after another. Ok, I can understand that you have been misinformed and misled, we live in an age where you are most likely to be misled by some malicious post at some point. But she cannot be forgiven that after literally thousands of people have tried to correct her she continues down that path of conspiracies and dangerous lies. She has repeatedly chosen to be and look like an idiot. Well then, that's her decision and she will have to live with it. She will lose jobs, both internationally and domestically, in addition to seriously damaging an excellent reputation that took her years to build. And it will be very well deserved.

Barbara Palvin
@emerald7 I have seen the two episodes and well, between the fact that they are only 5 minutes of video and that we hardly have any material from Barbara lately, I like to see those episodes, although it's very random, first a video of them in the river with some friends and then they talking about where they would like to live, there is no connection, I don't know what the purpose of all this is. I guess sharing a small part of their personal life because they know that people like them as a couple. On the other hand, I like Dylan, he seems like a nice guy and I'm really happy for Barbara that she's so happy with him, but I'm starting to get a bit bored that Barbara does practically nothing if not with Dylan. A photoshoot for a magazine? With Dylan. An advertising campaign? With Dylan. Is she going to an event? With Dylan. Does she start vlogging? With Dylan and Dylan's friends. Like I said, I like Dylan, but who I am a fan of is Barbara, I would like to see more work of just Barbara.

Is it just me or does Adriana look different in that pic? Don't know why, but it's as if she had some treatment on her face

I suppose that Adriana's environment will be full of people who believe this kind of nonsense, but I find it hard to believe that there is no one to stop her and explain that she is doing a lot of damage to her reputation with that nonsense she post on Instagram. And if they are aware and do nothing, I feel sorry for Adriana because then she's surrounded by people interested in being close to her for her money, her fame or any other type of interest and that they just agree with her in everything for that they can continue to take advantage of it. Because this is serious and is no longer just a reason for her reputation, it's even for her own health. Although this is literally the job of her PR team, I don't understand what they do, it's like she doesn't have a PR team. Although I don't think it's easy to tell a person of almost 40 years, mother of two daughters that she is believing in bullshit without any foundation, I mean, it's easy for Adriana to take it badly. Not an easy situation to handle, perhaps someone close to her has already tried and failed. If you look at the people who believe in conspiracies, a good part of them never stop doing it, it's very difficult for someone who believes in conspiracies to stop doing it.

At this point, I don't think anyone would be surprised Adriana has been brainwashed with anti-vaccine bullshit and other stupid conspiracies. It's disappointing, but predictable.

Doutzen Kroes
I'm so disappointed with Doutzen. I could have accepted that she was misinformed and published some bullshit if later she was better informed and stopped this spiral of nonsense, but no, Doutzen has been spreading dangerous theories for several months at a critical time for society. I've been a fan of hers for a long time, but honestly, I don't care if she now has less work is what she deserves. Her attitude is not just that of a stupid person, it's dangerous and self-centered, many people (and from what I read, many dutch media journalists) through social networks have explained to her why she is wrong and why what she does is dangerous and she has completely ignored them.
