Plus she still gets some gigs here and there (editorials, events...) which should bring in some cash. And she has a rich(-ish) boyfriend.

VS's advertising peeps track how much the girls sell, how much people they pull to their openings and so on. If the girls makes them money, she stays. If she doesn't make them enough she leaves. (Or gets redirected, like Chanel towards PINK or Lindsay towards Gorgeous-type lingerie). And it goes both ways, some girls use VS to get fame but do not necessarily want a restrictive contract for years. VS wants to be the first work priority in their Angels' workload. If they schedule a launch during fashion week, the girls must be available and forget runway and so on. So basically Alessandra and Adriana were better fit for VS than Izabel and Selita and were probably also more keen on staying with them. Alessandra and Adriana have the advantage to be who VS's loyal customers "grew up with", like Behati and Chanel will be some day. They arrived when VS really started shooting to fame (the early 2000s) whereas the next Angels arrived when customers already had their favourite "faces" for the brand and were thus seen as a lesser version of them. But some do stay, like Doutzen and Miranda who renewed their contracts (although their workload seems a lot lighter since they did).

If we go further back, Helena, Stephanie and Karen all stopped right after their contracts ended, heck Helena, didn't even walk for the first Angel-featuring fashion show. Laetitia did a What is Sexy commercial two years after her contract expired, Daniela appeared at the launch of the Sexy book after her contract expired, Inés (does she count?) walked a few years after she stopped doing catalog. Chandra North and Yasmeen Ghauri were "one time" Angels, so yeah...

Lindsay Ellingson
Yeah, I know but still... At this point she's the only Angel besides Doutzen to not be in any of the banners on the site. I guess the Valentine's spotlight couldn't last that long.

I'll just say this, Behati isn't quite the skinniest model they have. And when I was ten, I definitely wasn't 5'10. (I am taller than that now, but I was quite the late bloomer) Also, I personally like Lindsay, a lot. I hate Adriana with a burning passion. I also like Doutzen and do not find a single thing attractive about Erin. Wanna know why? Because, as a man, even, though I will admit to liking breasticles and how they are displayed, I am also able to look up and to look beyond that. Lindsay has a great personality and a nice smile, Adriana, well, not so much. Doutzen's face is amazing. I find it extremely reductive that one would assume that I (and most if not all men) only look at a woman's body and, TBH, I'd think women would find that degrading. The point is Angels are spokesmodels and personality does factor in that equation. And VS went from selling bras to women to selling push-up to teens, so maybe that's why they changed their models accordingly.- The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
^Stop saying this kind of thing and I'll back off! You only just said in the sentence before that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and that you're not "speaking for all men" so STOP with these sweeping statements! I am pretty sure that Siemgi doesn't - and, actually, I don't either! Flawless taste. Also, at this being age restricted on Youtube There aren't even any (naked) boobies...- Lindsay Ellingson

Have you seen the male models/actors/singers these days. Do they look like the average man to you? Maybe that's because they are supposed to sell a fantasy. Which they do. And oddly, nobody complains. So why complain when girls do the same?- Lindsay Ellingson

Bye Doutzen (and Lindsay) Sorry Siemgi. Looks like Lindsay's an unfortunate casualty of the Hi Doutzen/Bye Doutzen treatment. No worries though. The two ladies are now besties and drank their sorrows away together. How kind of Victoria's Secret to give Doutzen a burn buddy. And now they are being forced to work alongside VS's most homely looking model (besides Erin). It just gets worse and worse...- The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
Lindsay and Lily have been in a GQ spread that's been reprinted everywhere. Unless the only GQ you read is French GQ, you should have seen it. I'm pretty sure Behati has done some men's magazines too. And either way, VS isn't supposed to target a male audience. Lily also has a somewhat famous husband, which bring a bit of press. And as long as she doesn't smile, she looks fine.Also, re: Candice -> Lindsay put gum in her hair.- The Official Victoria's Secret Thread
Also, one should keep in mind that the "average American woman" is overweight. While models are, on average too thin, a healthy model would still be thinner than most American women. Plus, a two-cup push-on on a D-cup model just looks plain ridiculous (not that I am a big fan of push-ups, though...) - Elsa Hosk
