yeah I will never argue with someone about how she looks because as proven on this forum with pages and pages of models, I don't expect everyone to dig the same look. That's fine and obviously everyone sees something different and some will prefer hot blondes,exotic brunettes,commercial models,high fashion,etc...even if I personally think she is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. I for one, love that she doesn't look like just another Hollywood clone. She's unique. That is half of her appeal IMO. But for someone who just doesn't like her period, and also denies her iconic status, I find soo immature. lol Even Barron who is not a Gisele fan, acknowledges her status. I appreciate an unbiased opinion like that moreso than I dont like her so she is not popular or very famous either. Besides fame and popularity are 2 different things. Just because she is not as popular as she once was during her heyday, doesn't mean a thing IMO. You rarely see Cindy Crawford anymore but that doesn't mean she isn't famous. She just isn't as popular now. Ask anyone (over a certain age) who she is, and they will know. (same with Gisele) and besides Forbe's money making,powerful celeb/women lists she makes many more important ones. -4th most powerful person in fashion world out of 50 by the NewYork daily news -Models.com #1 modeling icon and #1 money girl -The biggest star in fashion history by The Independent -Claudia Shiffer,Naomi Campbell,Christy Turlington all say she is the only real Supermodel left today. -Most Vogue covers ever all before the age of 30 and the list goes on I don't see any other models having such prestigious titles. I love that Gisele doesn't have to do talk shows or attend award shows,premieres AND she still gets some of the best work around, without having to do anything. Everyone still wants to work with her year after year. Heck they even fly around the world just to work with her, she doesn't even have to travel anymore. which in 2010 was almost always the case bc she didn't want to leave Benjamin behind.

The Worst of the Worst
Is this voting for we don't like their look or they get on our nerves? I see some ppl nominating the same ppl they have in the "appeal I don't get" thread. Im confused. but then again I have a feeling, if some ppl don't like how a person looks of course that is how they are going to rate them regardless if they find that person annoying or not. Courtney Love - not a fan but I rarely see or hear of her so she doesn't bother me; although I don't like what she stands for so - 3 thanks for nominating reality stars and annoying tweens. talk about being shoved down your throats. ugh. I wish models really were, we could have a Supermodel era again.

I know. I once watched a Plastic Surgery show, and they said alot of girls always requested breasts like Gisele's. They did not want the big fake silicone Pam Anderson look that was more popular in the 90's any longer. I think Gi brought in the ,petite,natural T&A look. Jlo brought in the bum craze. haha. I like what you said in SI 2011 thread Jennka and fyi. I am American and Gisele is not just "the wife of tom brady" lmao. yeah sure it's one of her many labels, but certainly not the only one. (the only time she is referred to as Tom's wife is on sportscenter, lol) All other times she is Gisele. She is one of the only models here who can even create a headline, lol. Not to mention also one of the few models who can actually get an American fashion magazine cover. I hardly call that insignificant. Oh yeah and a little thing called Forbe's, says otherwise as well. I don't see anyone else on the #1 spot People don't have to like Gisele. but to downgrade her status just bc you don't like her? lol... and on the topic of plastic surgery. I don't see any other models bringing in trends like that, lol. Not to mention her hair being a major hit and many girls wanting to have big bronde beachy waves this whole entire decade... also, I'm glad she isn't just seen as a "guy hot" model. She's far beyond that. She is a fashion icon. and if you ask me still going damn strong.

A little about Gisele/Colcci- Motion
I have no idea, lol. She looks so undone so I can't imagine it being for a commercial or something. funny though. whoa last night when I posted it, it had 300 views. It has 45,000 now.- 2011 SI Swimsuit
congrats to Irina. She and Anne V were my picks Every covergirl in recent years seems to be in the spotlight a little bit more (well for a model anyways) and Irina was that girl this year, so no surprise to me. Her bf is not even famous here in the US, is he? so I wouldn't blame it on that. If anything it was her attending tons of events and the flabbergasted GQ hoopla that got me wondering. Can't say Im a big fan of the actual cover. Was hoping for that vintage-y style in the preview pics, but Irina herself looks amazing! Best cover since Marisa's.- Motion
