SympathysSilhouette

I just think Ronda is ugly. Also I've read/heard stories that Ronda is a stuck up bitch. Unpopular opinion: I don't like any of those three covers.

I just think it's a bit gimmicky and devalues the cover somewhat. I felt the same about the trio cover to shoe-horn Chrissy in there (obviously since MJ lacked the courage to give Chrissy a solo cover).

Wait, some people love Chrissy? Other than her family, you mean?

I have to say that only Bojana has really wowed me a bit in terms of the rookie reveals. And even then, only in the youtube clip.

Looks like she fills out a pair of jeans quite well too.

I liked the Bojana Youtube clip. The picture is only so-and-so, but I suspect there will be a lot better things to come from her in the issue and on si.com.

Based on the information she herself shared on Instagram, Johanna must now be around 8 months pregnant.

Ah, apologies.

Poor Barbara, just can't catch a break, can she?

Clinton is significantly to the right of Blair's New Labour.

A pretty cool guy, for a narrow-minded bigot then?

Only within the American context. In Europe he would be deemed a right-of-center moderate.

The thing about BMI is that it is a useful tool to measure the health of populations (by taking the average BMI of a group) not necessarily of individuals. A common criticism used is that BMI would deem some pro athletes (who are all muscle) as being overweight. But then, such considerations matter less when measuring the health of large groups, since most of us aren't professional athletes.

Well it is very, very unlikely that Ashley would meet the WHO standards for being overweight.

Fat is a relative term. So it's essentially meaningless. A very thin person might feel fat if they gain like 2 lbs. So what exactly is your baseline for comparison if you deem Ashley to be fat? It cannot be the population average in the US (or other English-speaking countries for that matter).

#StillABetterCoverModelThanChrissy

I can't hear you from up in my bunk.

She looked fine but it did make the big deal they made out of casting a plus size model look stupid. Since she barely looked like one in the actual issue.

Your 2017 cover girls, if there is any sanity left in the world.

Well Robyn dropped a lot of weight before she did her shoot, which sort of ruined the entire point of casting her.

Denise and Bojana together, my 2017 SISE cover dreams. I'll be in my bunk.

Who should she be backing, exactly?

I had some hopes for Barbara but I'm not feeling her look in either the youtube clip or the photograph. Also, who failed to teach her to pronounce "rookie". It sounded more like "Rocky".
