Next year they just need to quit the bullshit and don't have a vote. Kate Bock won ROTY her year in a clearly rigged voting and she still has no cover and is still a pretty much unknown model. Hannah Davis had her name on the cover that year and now she got it ... I'm thinking maybe this time was the same? Please IMG by giving them an inset + ROTY. As boring as she is, from this year's group Erin is probably the only Rookie with realistic cover chances in the future. I was hoping for Hailey but I see about zero buzz around her, I do hope she gets another year tho. The other five are just never getting a cover, ever, i can see Rose having a long SI career like Jessica Gomes and such but that's about it.

You gotta give it to them tho, at least this time they made it less obvious by starting to bump Kelly's % in the last week and not the last day like they did the past two years, it was such a joke I'm just surprised it took people this long to understand this was rigged o.o, ROTY based on the votes should have been Erin and no one can deny it even if she did look like she was ready for a nap in 90% of her pictures. I just feel bad for Rose because I think she scored her points fair and square which means that truthfully she should have won the whole thing.

Gigi has been modeling since she was like two tho, even as a kid she was beautiful and had modeling potential. I think she is the only one from the celeb trend who actually has earned her place with a lot of work, is not like she decided one day "Humm maybe i want to model, I want mommy and daddy to buy me a spot in a big ass agency". As for Alexandria, I think she'll do great and I trust her management. They're all great people who knows what they are doing.

Kelly was just announced as winner. Do y'all still think the voting wasn't rigged?

I was aware of that. What I couldnt grasp is that it had been no less than 5-6 months or more since she's been under development (inc. rigorous workout etc), and yet her agency wouldnt put her name up for RTW fashion weeks this season, assuming they sincerely want her to go HF route. I could be wrong in assuming that though. THen you gotta ask what else she wanna go for? Models are under development usually for a year or even more, it's completelly normal. Alexandria didn't officially start modeling until June last year and yes, she wants more HF and less commercial works. Look at the roster her agency has, is not hard to tell which route she wants to go.

I'll post this for the third time ... Alexandria is still under development guys, she is building her portfolio so she can work with more clients later, her agency has done this with girls before and it has worked so well, just look at Irina Sharipova. She does have more work coming out soon tho, we just need to be patient.

I don't think Hailey will be the next Kate tbh, I've seen close to zero buzz around Hailey and the mag has been out for a while now. Kate got tons of press and fans inmediatly after the magazine came out. I'm not sure being the next Kate would be too great anyway, is not like her career is anything too amazig these days. Hailey would be better off doing her own thing.

Voting closes in a few hours I think, it's safe to say Erin will win so congrats to her and her agent I guess, it was obvious she would win tbh I think this voting was just pointless. I'm curious about who else will return tho, I think Kelly, Rose & Hailey will be the ones to make the cute & Ashley & Solveig are most likely not coming back & then there's Robyn who is PR gold but no one seems to be feeling her so it could go either way with her but I think (and hope) she won't return.

Agreed, they need to start creating buzz around the models and making an announcement would be IMO a great first step.

Erin's back in the lead. She's winning this for sure the hardcore fans support + her recent involvement with another SI project + her being the highest profile rookie makes it a win for everyone and it just makes sense. It sucks tho, I got the magazine today and she looks as awful and bored in print as she does in digital.

This move to The Lions should be great for her, their girls are booking big jobs left and right all the time. Good for Bregje

I am sorry but the white walls in my house have more personality than Martha. I think she is an amazing model when it comes to catalog & commercials but as a spokesperson she is just cringe worthy, she is awkward and can't even fake it like all the others. Stella didn't get enough screentime for me to even form an opinion of her as a future spokesperson tbh but the small bits we got she was pretty meh. I adore her work but if VS plans to sign her they need to train her a bit more. Elsa is pretty much flawless, I'm glad she got her own little segment (Y), same for Jac & Jasmine, I can see them doing well with the brand. Why was Joan even there for? She had like 0.5 time of screentime, waste of time tbh. Adriana, Candice & all the usual suspects were as boring as ever but I'll just blame it on VS for making them answer the same old questions we've been getting since they got their respective contracts. I did like the commercials tho, all pretty good (Y) but based on social networks I'll say this thing flopped a little.

Jac & Jasmine for new Angels? Only model swithout a contract who got profiles

Jac is so good, i love her. They need to sign her like today
