Beachgirl

Raising my head above the parapet once again. Disappointed in Chan and Chiles covers. Hayek and Dunne ones ok but not earth shattering. Have not seen mag yet bc the former app is nowhere to be found. Does anyone have the SI Swimsuit app? Or is it defunct? Cannot believe MJ is still at its helm—just more same o, same o. Same photographers same poses same tired messages. Swimwear is abysmal. No wonder the designers abandoned this sinking ship. Now SI has swimwear for sale under its own banner in Amazon(!) for less than ten bucks! Who could stay in business against those margins??!!

no words...

USA!

On Forbes.com today, Managing Director of IMG models, Ivan Bart says his management firm represents several models who have appeared on past swimsuit covers, including Irina Shayk, Tyra Banks and Carolyn Murphy. (Bart said the upcoming issue will feature six models from IMG. IMG represents Kate Upton.)FYI, Nina Agdal is represented by Elite, Kate's former agency in Miami.http://www.forbes.co...e-are-they-now/

In my experience they pick a swimsuit that has not been shown yet--no tweets, no Instagrams, no leaks.

Re: your PS: Nina was shot in Australia Ariel was shot in Spain, i.e., Europe, NOT South America I believe both came together at an undisclosed location (my guess is Latin/Central America, like Baja or Costa Rica) in December for bodypaint, thus their silhouettes at the end of the teaser film. This 'mystery' shot of model in the yellow bottoms and blue/yellow tie-dyed crochet top is also taken from the shoot in Chile, Easter Island, South America. The rookies photos leaked so far show that: Natasha was shot in Australia Emily was shot in Namimbia, Africa Hannah was shot in China, Asia Kate Bock, above, if that is her, was shot in Chile, South America So, there are photos of this model, above, in the yellow bottoms shot in Chile, as well as ones of the model (Kate B??)with blonde hair shown previously on horseback and from behind in a black bikini with fringe--all from the Chile, South America shoot. Maybe the yellow bottoms one is not the same as Kate B, or even a rookie? Maybe its a vet, like Michelle! If Tina did shoot (and I'm not convinced on this at all) or any other unnamed rookie, she would be from the Africa shoot, in any case--not in South America.

Kate the great!?

Alyssa Miller tonight with 2-time SI Swimsuit covergirl Carol Alt.

You are killing us!

I saw that Shoot the Centrefold piece also with Tina Brady, but SI could have booked her, knowing that she'd be there as well at that time--we never ID'd the 2 mystery models on that shoot except that now we have Emily Didonato confirmed as one (Travel Channel, thank you!) So who is the other dark haired one, if not Tina?

I wondered about that too. Very expensive cruise to go there with one model. Maybe this is where the former cover girls (Yamila, Elsa, others???) are being shot also--along with Kate? That could explain why no SI tweets at all during those 16 days, except for the TMZ Oreo leak. I'm all for an Oreo, but that really cheapened the whole mystique of Antarctica for me. I want Emperor Penguins, arctic foxes and polar bears, not a cookie, with my bikini models!

Any way you guys look at this, no one can compete with Kate's year, and the draw she has--major magazine cover after cover, fashion editorial after fashion editorial, filmed by best photographers in the world. Carl's ad last year, Mercedes Ad(s), film cameos, viral dances on Twitter, squillions of followers. Not to mention that she had what looks like an exclusive SI shoot on the most remote spot on the planet. No contest.

Well, when we see Letterman we will at least know that the cover girl is amongst one of those 10! Still sure it's Kate!

And here's the article on the Travel Channel Sunday Feb. 17 8PM EST one hour special on the Making of Sports Illustrated Swim 2013: 'Sports Illustrated Swimsuit' special airing on Travel Channel This year's Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue promises to be as sexy and as exotic as ever.

This year's swimsuit issue includes the first fashion shoot to take place on the ice-covered terrain in Antarctica. (That couldn't have been too fun!) The special also follows the bikini-clad models and photographers as they battle sandstorms in the African dunes and traverse treacherous cliffs in Asia. "Hands down, this is the most fantastic armchair adventure you can take this winter," promises Laureen Ong, president of the Travel Channel, in the announcement. USA TODAY

Cover reveal info for 11th Feb: 10 models to present Top 10 before cover is unveiled. http://www.cbspressexpress.com/cbs-entertainment/releases/view?id=34514

I see the tatts on the first body paint model-do you have similar photos showing tatts like those on Alyssa-- I can only see the writing one under her bra line. The model is wearing a short dark wig and its hard to tell what color her long hair really is in those shadows! As far as numbers go, I am totally confused now! )

From page 20. In China, not Anne V, Jessica G or Hannah D. Who dis is? Pretty said Rachel Hunter. I agree. edit: I don't know, it could be Hannah.

I have thought Jess P was the first bodypaint (1964 re-do) all along but only told a few people in PM. If you put Michelle Vawer back in the Vets list, we now have 15 ( I know, I know-- only IloveSIGirls is with me on this one! ) so then we are missing only 2 Vets. Maybe Yamilla and Elsa are the other 2 Vets--why else put them in the teaser video!? Its mostly rookies who make covers (except Anne and Chrissy and Irina, Kate are also in this issue) 5 Rookies, not counted in the 17, as in past issues makes 22+ models!!! Guests: Katherine Webb, maybe some Olympic gymnasts, swimmers and volleyball girls; maybe some previous cover girls???? 5-6 more???? WOW-maybe up to 28 models? #faintsinfangirlswoon# You didn't include Kate Bock at the top. Vets - Kate Upton - Nina Agdal - Jessica Gomes - Alyssa Miller - Cintia Dicker - Genevieve Morton - Adaora - Izabel Goulart - Irina Shayk - Julie Henderson - Ariel Meredith - Anne V - Chrissy Teigen - Jessica Perez Total: 14 Rookies - Hannah Davis - Emily Didonato - Natasha Barnard - Kate Bock - Tina Brady Total: 19 So not including Katherine Webb there is 19 models. But the travel channel promo said there were 7 continents and 17 wonders. Maybe Beachgirl was right and 17 refers to vets only and there will be 3 more. Maybe we got 2 vets wrong and 17 is the total of vets and rookies. Maybe 17 is the 14 vets plus Bar or Katherine and the 2? athletes.

Could it be Michelle Vawer in Easter Island *hears.snorts.and.chuckles*
