So let's hope CBS pull the plug on the swim special or tell VS to get their shit together.
The swim special isn't as much of a big deal they can have or don't have it doesn't affect the company too much but the loss of ratings from the fashion show needs to be fixed. And VS really have to change up their dated forumula. I thought the swim special might be different because they will try something new but once again it was exactly the same as everything they've done lately. Extremely choppy and barely any focus on the girls.

As always with VS related stuff I gave it another viewing. It flows a bit better after a repeated viewing. They all had fun. If they just cut out that second Demi performance, volleyball and the lame jet ski scene and replaced those with more behind the scenes shooting of the girls it would've been a lot better.

Yeah, that was incredibly disappointing show.
Candice was easily the best part but not in it for nearly long enough. I think 3 minutes total not counting the brief cuts to her dancing during the live performances. Her shoots were obviously hot enough where they could have given her an entire show so I don't get why they had to cut her to such a short time.
The biggest issue is that Nick Jonas and Demi Lovato's performances had them on cam for about half of the entire thing, if not more. It's supposed to be about the models in swimsuits, not the musical guests.
Crossing my fingers some cool behind-the-scenes footage begins to roll out now that it's aired.
Candice has had plenty of attention and still got her own solo segment as well as a segment with Stella and a segment with Behati. She had plenty of screen time compared to Lais who said one thing and had a couple shots and thats it. I don't think anyone who loves Candice can be unhappy with the amount of attention she has with VS. She's been featured so much plenty.

2012 is when she officially moved up to mainline. Her first commercial was a commercial with Bregje and Candice and that year was her first holiday commercial too. Whereas years before her Erin, Lily, Lindsay, Chanel and even Lais etc had been involved in the holiday commercial. She was marketed as an angel yes but she was only contracted as the Pink model and then she earned her Angel wings. Elsa was the same except VS didn't put her in the angel lineup until the 2014 show.

I don't see this scoring that decent in ratings. Last years weren't good and I see it being less this year. Demi and Nick aren't that big of a draw. Their albums aren't even in the top selling compared to the likes of Adele, Sia, Taylor Swift etc
The show itself was a clusterfuck. It's like the editor hit three or four lines of the good stuff before going to town on the show.

So much triggering over this, but oh well...
After watching the special, I had a random realization, and that is, is that Candice isn't needed anymore (nor is Behati/Lily). Candice just doesn't seem that special anymore, and frankly has seen some better days.
If only VS would dump all the vets and just put all their focus and energy on the new girls. But if VS have clung for dear life on to Adriana and Alessandra like this then we know Candice and what her future will be like with VS. Behati too. It's clear they are trying to make them the next Adriana and Alessandra. What with them being both from Africa and starting the same time etc. Just like Adriana/Alessandra Brazil etc. Lily will be gone soon and who knows who VS will keep their attention on from the new angels. Josephine, Sara and Taylor for sure. Elsa too. The rest I don't know.

The thing is they had only like 2 extra girls compared to last year and at least every girl last year got some kind of screen time. This year was just a series of wtf after each other.
Lais, Vita, Lily and pretty much Elsa and Romee were non existent. Jasmine, Stella, Taylor, Josephine got a little bit of love and then Candice, Behati, Sara and Martha were all over everything.

I loved what Taylor said during the shoot. How she always watches what she shot last that way she mixes it up for the next shot. And she's aware of the light and the scenery. She's definitely learning and getting better.
The Sara/Stella, Romee/Jasmine and Candice/Behati shooting segments are the best. That's what we are watching for. Not jeep driving, volleyball, jet skies etc

The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
in General Discussion
I mainly wanna see the commercials again. I'm with ya Bryan. The interest is fading away. If the die hard fans who follow the brand are over it then the audience has to be too. Based on viewership for their shows then yes people are losing interest.
