SympathysSilhouette

I think we should discuss SI's celeb obsession in recent years. It's not just the model with the famous boyfriend getting the cover, I'm also talking about the Beyonc

She would instantly become the greatest rookie EVER.

I think you've identified the main problem: most of those shots, poses and locations are interchangeable. SI lost their edge years ago...

Same shoot, slightly different pose.

Can we call that VS disease?

I'm not a big Alyssa fan, but I'd love to take her and Hilary and have a threesome in which I pretend they're sisters. In my fantasy, they're just cousins.

And Alyssa is quite the opposite of that. Her shoot isn't quantifiable better, but I want to elope with her and start a family of big-browed kids after almost every shot I see.

Genevieve is a mystery to me personally. I think she's one of the hottest girls in this issue, but most of the shots leave me cold... I had the same issue with her shoot last year. Might she be a pretty girl who just doesn't "sparkle" in front of the camera?

I agree that the large majority of shots deserve the use of the adjective "bland".

I'm pretty sure those poses will have been suggested by the editors. I hate all the self-reference SI has been guilty of this past decade. Come up with something new instead of re-doing your past and selling it as an homage... <_<

Screw the haters, I like the eyebrows!

She looks gorgeous, the best shoot of the entire issue imho.

In fairness to Irina, this year's shoot with her is between 10x and 100x times more interesting than last year's. Having said that, I prefer Hilary Rhoda's and Alyssa Miller's to her's. Honorable mention to Kate Upton. None of the others truly wow me...

I see they went the celebrity boyfriend route again...

Who is the dude that is talking to them in those pictures? I will do his job for free!

Wow! Limer, tell me you have the first picture in HQ!

What's up with the rumor about her and Ronaldo having broken up?

I love her cuuuuuuuuuurves.

Charlize and Will really like each other. Around the time they did press for Hancock together, I honestly thought they might become an item. I still believe there was definitely something there...

Still can't get over the fact that they're a couple. His upper arms are almost the size of her torso! I just hope for her sake he never insists on being on top.

Your avatar is hypnotizing... :|

Based on the interviews I've seen with her over the past half year or so, I can see where those folks who says she lacks a bit of personality come from. Having said that, which VS Angels did offer more in terms of being able to improvise and give off the cuff (funny) answers? I can think of only two: Heidi and Marisa. Even Gisèle never struck me as a stand-out interviewee.

Too bad for him he's been shit for most of the season. But I guess one wondergoal makes up for six months of underperforming?

She does have the most spectacular booty of all the SISE girls.

I think it's a combination of the bra's design and some strategically placed stuffing. You can quite clearly see in any topless shot that she isn't that big up top.
