U.K.

Yes, thanks Zecle. But...from looking through the SI site, it looks like Yamila isn't in this years SI issue. Y? without mentioning some of the other models, how could they have those in the issue but not Yamila??? :lost:

Look here site started to be updated http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/features/...swimsuit/video/ (except that I can't actually view any of the videos on my pc )

Is there a link please? (please ignore - I've found a bit of a link below)

I don't think it has to do with "caring" about the fans as it does being a business decision. If potential sales/profit from a DVD aren't worthwhile, they just aren't going to do one. It would be bad business if they did. The thing is, I bet they do create a standard definition DVD (from the high definition footage they have). They'll then give that DVD free to yearly subscribers, but I'll bet they'll not sell it at amazon or elsewhere. I don't understand how that makes good business sense. If they make thousands of DVDs, why not sell them separately too and profit?? It does not compute?? :|

1. Who do you think they will give the SI 2008 cover to? Which model do you think they might have chosen for the cover? (not the one you think deserves it or should get it), but which one you think they'll give it to for whatever reason they have 2. Who would you LIKE them to give the 2008 cover to? (select a maximum of 3 models from each question please)

The magazine is for sale (well in the US anyway, nowhere else <_< ) but I see no sign of any DVD. I don't think they care about the fans. I bet they've recorded the footage, they'll broadcast it but not sell a DVD of it but may give it to people who subscribe for a year and will definitely put low resolution clips on their site and youtube but I doubt they'll release any form of DVD for sale on sites like amazon or other stores. I bet they just don't care about quality/the fans

Thanks

Are they from a website? Is there a link/other preview stuff?

Thanks CAHA!

Thanks for the good scans Zecle and everyone!

The 2008 magazine is going to be on sale in the US on 12th Feb 2008.

The 2008 magazine is going to be on sale in the US on 12th Feb 2008. Marisa Miller, Ana Beatriz Barros, Jessica White and others are going to be in it. What about Yamila - anyone know? What about the UK - we are sports fans too!

I like the 2002 cover best for some reason, that's the one with Yamila on so I vote for the 2002 cover. 3 points

She is in quite a few other ones too (but not the 2004 one )

Bridget Hall (Isabeli hasn't really been in SI enough times)

Daniela

Thanks for the pics mickiala It's a shame if they have done a voice over with someone else, as the film wouldn't be quite as good

Since it's been about 285 days since the question was asked and I don't think anyone has replied yet, I think I will try to reply. I don't think I've seen the commercial but as Yamila was one of the 2 models in the 2007 Hawaii shoot (the other one was Veronica Varekova who is blonde), I would say, if the commercial was for SI 2007, then it is very likely that it was Yamila

Also, if you search on the name of her film on youtube.com, there are at least 3 clips that she stars in. One thing that confuses me (apart from the fact that I can't understand hardly anything cos it's all in Italian) is she sounds slightly different. Could it be that she re-recorded the dialogue in a studio or something? It is really her talking isn't it?

Yamila Diaz interview on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno in 2006 (oh and Daniela Pestova and Rachel Hunter are there too). (the clips only mention Daniela in the text but Yamila is in the centre). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YywGrzWdSxs [interview part 1] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuHkuN9E3iQ...feature=related [interview part 2] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84Eh2kJPWqU...feature=related [interview part 3]
