Erin is clearly a lot more popular than all the other rookies, while I hope she doesn't win because I think every single one of her pictures sucked and even if she was a mediocre Angel IMO, she had time enough with VS to built a fanbase that as expected thinks her pictures are zomg amazing!!! best thing ever she's perfection!! and are posting links left and right promoting their girl. Love her or not, girlfriend has more fans, end of story

ROTY Voting - 02/09 Rose Bertram - 35% Erin Heatherton - 27% Hailey Clauson - 21% Ashley Smith - 6% Solveig - 5% Kelly Rohrbach - 4% Robyn Lawley - 2%

aaand just like that, erin is up to 24% I called this Check Instagram & Tumblr, are filled of accounts with links for people to vote for Erin.

Am I the only one who thinks Irina needs to stop doing SI? This is her 9th and IMO she doesn't bring anything new to the table, she's not even that great of a model in the terms of her posing and etc, so she just looks the same literally every year. She had a great run but she needs to let it go

I think for the models winning ROTY it does give them piece of mind to know they are guaranteed to come back at least once. 2006 ROTY was Brooklyn Decker, cover girl for 2010. 2007 ROTY IDK if it was Bar Refaeli or Irina Shayk, either way both women got the cover eventually. 2008 ROTY was Melisa Haro, was asked to come back once and bye. Jessica Gomes who lost that year, is still (sadly) in the magazine. 2009 ROTY was Esti Ginzburg, was asked to come back twice (or thrice?) but never got a cover. Was outlasted by Cintia Dicker but she didn't get a cover either. 2010 ROTY was Chrissty Teigen, cover girl for 2014. 2011 ROTY was Kate Upton, cover girl for 2012 & 2013. 2012 ROTY was Nina Agdal, cover girl for 2014. 2013 ROTY was Kate Bock, still doesn't have a cover. Hannah Davis who lost this year, is the cover girl now. Kate's odds of ever getting a cover tho are from little to none. 2014 ROTY was Sara Sampaio, still doesn't have a cover. And as much as I like her I just don't see it ever happening. Also I just realized that ALL the girls from the Brazilian location last year (Anne V, Natasha, Bregje & Valerie) got cut this year. Ouch

IF they respect votes, Hailey should win ROTY. The others are just .. nope. I only liked Ashley Smith but I can see her being very hit or miss with other people.

Such a rain of happiness and sunshine

^ In your opinion, just like in my opinion Genevieve is terrible and will most likely never get a cover

^ I'm pretty sure that's the only reason why Nina didn't get the cover I always said it would be an American on the cover but those shots of Nina are everyrhing. I like the actual cover tho and Hannah's shoot was great and out of all the Americans in the magazine she's by far the best IMO, none of the girls from Hawaii ever stood a chance with that shit of a photoshoot o.o (even tho 99% sure SI had planned for Gigi but changed it after seeing the results) and the others are either too irrelevant or just didn't deliver.

I would have gone with one of these

^ It's a great picture but I wouldn't put it on the cover tho. I would use it for the opening page instead of Irina's

^ I'd say second best, IMO the best one is this one However, both pictures are easily some of the best ever in SI, everything is just so on point. Are u on Skype? Need to ask something

Cover worthy: Other favorites:

Finally! She looks amazing

^ I agree tho, I hate this dead transition time from Pink to Mainline, I want her shoot by David Bellemere to be out already

I would throw Ashley in there too, they managed to get all great pictures of her and as mentioned, she just nails it in the white trash theme. My favorite is Hailey but I can see why guys love Rose too, she does have some great shots. The other four are rather forgettable or just plain awful

I'll try to update the ROTY voting daily or whenever something major happens so here it goes ROTY Voting - 02/09 Rose Bertram - 33%Hailey Clauson - 31%Erin Heatherton - 12%Ashley Smith - 8%Solveig - 7%Kelly Rohrbach - 6%Robyn Lawley - 3%

^ Nina is based in Miami so my guess is she wants to stay home as long as possible but she has to be at the launch party tonight so we'll see her there.

Nailed it (Y)

Best girls - Nina Agdal - Hannah Davis - Sara Sampaio - Hannah Ferguson - Hailey Clauson - Ashley Smith Women who need to stay home next year - Genevieve Morton - Erin Heatherton - Irina Shayk - Chrissy Teigen - Rose Bertram - Samantha Hoopes - Kelly Rohrbach The others were just meh, nothing great nothing bad I just don't care about them People who need to never go anywhere near SI again - Yu Tsai - The entire Hawaii crew - The people who retouched all the pictures

The entire crew from Hawaii needs to never do SI again, hair, lighting, photography and everything pretty much sucks o.O

I'm bored of waiting, going for lunch and walk the dog. I can't believe these idiots

You need to go and tell MJ who you are just to see her face This could make it worth it actually. Either way SI is not wanted in the area. They're blocking all traffic to the bars, and the bar owners are PIST!. I just spoke to the manager of The Gold Rush and she told me that the fucking tent is staying up till the 15, and that for two days+ they're going to have trouble getting people into the bars which is a loss of revenue that can't take during the winter months.. So fuck you SI, leave my area. Thanks Please please Yvette you must go and introduce yourself to MJ It would be just priceless to her I hate you face And send her my best regards too

Nina didn't get robbed, the theme this year is Made in America which means they were going to be put an American girl on the cover. Sucks for Nina but nothing she can do about it, at least she had a cover last year

You need to go and tell MJ who you are just to see her face
