Was anyone a little surprised at Candice's instagram today? She said she hadn't seen her mother for a year, and was finally reunited! Like damn, that really shocked me!! I can't even imagine not seeing my mother for a year. It's not like Candice doesn't have the means to travel, or to pay for a plane ticket for her mom. She does seem to go to Brazil a lot on vacation so it just totally surprised me.

Seriously, how the hell has Marloes not been casted?! They cast girls like Maud Welzen and Anastascia K but not her... Does Eniko still model? I'd love to see her again.

Wait, did you guys see the picture Barbara posted this morning in wings?! Does it mean anything? Is the commercial already wrapped up?

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2013 (GENERAL DISCUSSION)
Yeah, I wonder if Stegner or Winberg will ever return? They have walked the show longer than many current angels! Flavia would definitely return if she was casted. I miss her in the show too! 2010 was her best year

Not discrediting Behati, but you are definitely underestimating Candice's popularity. LOTS of people in the USA know who Candice is; the majority of the girls (even those who weren't in the 'fashion circle') in my high school knew who Candice was. Most people in my current university can spot Candice out of an advertisement against the other angels. She's definitely rising. She has 1.3 million followers on Instagram versus 258k for Behati, 1.1million for Alessandra and 802k for Adriana. The same holds for Twitter - Candice has 500k followers on Twitter while Behati has 127k (Adriana and Alessandra definitely out-do Candice on Twitter though). Even subtle things such as when VS posts pics on their Instagram/Facebook, Candice pictures typically get the most likes and comments. I'm not a huge Candice fan, but I gotta give her credit where it is due. She definitely has a name and face outside of fashion forums. I still think Behati deserves the bra and has paid her dues though. But it really is no contest that Candice is more popular than Behati.

Think Adriana will open this year again? I sure hope so! I just hope the PINK segment isn't the closing segment this year.

Doutzen commented on Ed's Instagram photo of the commercial a few days ago saying "Have fun ;)", so that leads me to believe that there isn't bad blood! I totally agree with a poster above that perhaps since it was Phyllon's first weeks at school Doutzen asked to stay home? Who knows. But like someone else pointed out, Miranda did the commercial last in 2009 and she was an angel till 2013 so that's definitely telling. Erin on the other hand, has not at all acknowledged the commercial or any other other angels this week. I have this strong feeling that she truly is out. It's not like she has a family to support (like Doutzen), or she had any bigger things going on this week. She used to always be their go-to girl (after Candice), so something is definitely up. Edit: Btw, what are Bregje's and Toni's statuses with VS? I feel like they were pushed as angels at some point.

I really wish they could copy and paste those outfits into the VSFS. Amazing!

^ But she wants to get milked. She has always expressed how she loves working for VS.

Haha by jumped I meant that we immediately questioned it and had a reaction (whether positive or negative). If Doutzen, Ale, Lindsay, or Erin weren't in it I don't think that many people would make a fuss. It shows how Candice has really established herself as a primary angel.

The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
Isn't it funny how most of us jumped on the fact that Candice wasn't included in the first filming of the commercial? This shows how she has really found an identity with VS. Could you even imagine VS without Candice at this point? Just goes to show how far she has come. She's their ultimate blonde now since Heidi left. No one is gonna pass her in that status for quite some time.

I guess we know what to expect tomorrow then...hopefully Doutzen tags along haha And Lindsay is still in NY, she posted a picture of her dog.

No, I totally agree with what you said before. They are humans. They have bad days and good days. When I talk about meeting models, that does indeed come with a disclaimer that everyone's experience will vary, and I don't know them well enough to judge. I personally had a bad one, and decided to share it. It does not mean that Behati is a horrible person. She just had a bad attitude that specific instance.

^ Well with Adriana to be honest I've only encountered her at VS events, but at them she seemed very genuine with me and eager to talk. She was very touchy and overall made me very comfortable. Again this is my personal experience and it may vary! Maybe outside of events she's a bitch. Who knows. About Behati being 'bland', I was talking about her appearance in person, regardless of her attitude. I'm not saying that her standoffish-ness made her bland. My bad for not clarifying that. I just meant that she was very plain looking. I also saw Erin Wasson, Joan Smalls, Coco, and Karlie that day and Candice (anther day) and they were all much more striking than her.

Just to be clear I'm not 'hating' on Behati! I'm just sharing my experience. Isn't this forum about sharing opinions? If we all had the same opinion it would be rather boring. I do admire Behati though for working so hard and rising in the ranks as an angel. Many models would probably have given up, but her persistence made her become a main angel and even arguably the head angel this year.

You clearly haven't met many models then... Yes many are conceited and feel like they are amazing, but not all of them have a horrible attitude. Izabel Goulart for example was SO friendly, hugged and kissed me, engaged in conversation, was very sweet. Aline Weber too, Karlie, Coco, Lily D., Lais, and Jourdan Dunn as well. Behati stood in stark contrast to these girls.

For those that don't believe me, here are pics I took of Behati after the Wang show. She's very bland in person.

The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
What do you mean Behati's attitude ?? What did she do ? Many people on TFS have reported that Behati was unfriendly to them in person and was very standoffish. I didn't believe them until I saw her after Alexander Wang this FW. She stormed out of the backstage, ignored all fans and any requests for pictures, and just had a 'get the fuck out of my way attitude'. And she wasn't even in a bad mood, mind you. She eagerly spoke to her friends that were waiting for her and was all smiles with them. After that experience I will never look at her the same way. She's not like Adriana that radiates warmth, or Lily or Doutzen. Just ugh.. And to a poster above, it has NOTHING to do with Behati's 'rock chic' attitude. I just think she feels 'above' everyone else. Just not a fan.

Behati's attitude sucks and she is so bland (I've seen her in person, trust me). Really wish it had gone to Doutzen. Her body is unbelievable at the moment.
-
The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
I'm guessing Candice and Doutzen will be shot separately then? There is NO way Candice isn't in this... At least it leaves me hope for Doutzen. I wonder if Lindsay and Erin will pop up (although Erin's status is debatable now)?

SO strange about Barbara Fialho! I like her, but I really don't see her at all as a potential angel. She is indeed a good fit model because her figure is so stick-like and straight, but her face is just too wonky for her to ever do mainstream stuff for VS. Maybe she's a fit model for the xmas commercial outfits? Either way, at least she would add a more exotic looking face to the commercial. Isn't Doutzen in France?

She's from Puerto Rico! And African-Americans can be Latinas too, like Emanuela de Paula.
