    My bad not, street orphans, but orphans... since when her mom did an interview?? Exactly, Adriana liked studying so learning and studying something isn't a problem. Its probably where she grew up that influenced her lingo. That is very possible lol. There aren't many things that can influence the way someone talks but where a person is from does. Trust me, as a person in America, who didn't come from privilege at all like adriana, originally from somewhere urban, I know I don't use proper english sometimes. Its not bad English exactly but its def incorrect sometimes. That happens to so many people. Being from certain areas influence the way you say and use words. Adriana no longer spent alot of time in brazil after leaving when she was young, so its not gonna get better if she didn't continue to use it much anyway.

    People are gonna talk different because they are from a different place. She was from a different place and she was poor enough for street orphans to be her friends and was raised by a single mom, who was a social worker. Social workers don't get paid alot. Not even in a country like the US. Her not speaking it enough anymore is what helped her Portuguese remain that way, but the reason she talks like that in the first place is because of where she is from. Thats the reason why anybody will talk the way they do.

    They are from the north but they aren't exactly where she is from. Thats enough to make a difference. They probably didn't grow up with any kind privilege either but adriana is known to be from a very poor area specifically, people like that tend to not speak the correct form of their language. I mean, there is a reason for it, that just doesn't happen. And it make sense considering where is from exactly.
  7. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    I get what you're saying, seems like its broken because of where she is from. Its not the best or probably not correct all the time. Like people in america speak English a certain kind of way depending on where they are from and their English may be incorrect sometimes. And again the Jamaican example. It makes sense. Probably also don't help that she left brazil so early and she left straight out of that environment thats probably responsible for how she talks in Portuguese, so it stayed. Still kinda mean to pick on her for that, she can't help where she came from.But as I said, thats the "problem" all along. Like I said, I am ok with her not representing that. I see why adriana handles there the way she does. She will do work there and will do charity there and that is it lol. She does what she needs to there

    Is it like "broken Portuguese" because of where adriana is from? Like, Jamaicans, they speak english but its broken, so you wouldn't think it was English they were using. Is it like that for adriana? Because she wasn't from the best part of brazil? Or do they think she is too american with her accent, alot of people say that for ale, accent wise. Funny because here(US), her accent is super foreign for us no "gringo" mess at all lol I just caught on to that, thats not true. We don't talk like her over here and alot of people find her accent very different from what we are used to. Alessandra is the one who people think accent is less of brazilian and more like us I can see why adriana disagrees, Americans/Europeans are always put off by her accent. And she sounds like sophia vegara who is also latina and from a latin country.

    Not just on social media, I have on places like YouTube and other forums. Yeah that happens everywhere but it doesn't make it right nor okay. It just something people have to deal with because its systematic and put into a lot of places and cultures. But still doesn't make it ok Yeah it's all sad but it's a reason not to be bombed out about her not being apart of that, the way I see it
  10. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    She isn't white, that's enough. Black isn't just the only race that can experience that. But Adriana famously claimed Afro Brazilian, that's black Brazilian. Last year I read a study about people like Adriana in Brazilian, mixed and racially ambiguous, they lie on social media and try to pass as not mixed at all. It's common, there is a reason for that. And some friends who lived in Brazil said it is harder for people of color there. Not just full black. And you should tell that to the people who we have seen on social media saying racist things because of African blood she has. Again, she didn't " lose opportunities" or chose to not work a lot there. It's not given to her as much. Adriana goes to Brazil every single time work comes along it seems. Adriana will go to Turku for work. Italy. And she still does charity work in Brazil. It's not like she ignoring her country when it comes to doing anything there. I am sure if she was given more Brazilian work, we'd see more Brazilian work. But she isn't either way, whether it's her accent or Portuguese or the path she chose to identify or what she looks like or what part of Brazil she is from, it's discrimination. According to some people, it's nothing new of an issue. There are some people like Adriana who feel the need to pass off as something else. and I am not gonna be disappointed that she wasnt chose to represent that

    That is interesting because so many brazilians have said that, even people who have family/friends from brazil, said they say the same things. Alot of girls look like adriana there, apparently to them. People do say brazil is where alot of mixed people are from so I would imagine gisele is like exotic there, since she is a white brazilian. Which part of brazil is adriana from? I know gisele is south.
  12. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    The brazilians who are proud of her I noticed are from where she is. She has some Brazilian fans, Sophia is from there , but on a broad scale, Adriana isn't that cared about. And she never got much work there. Those who are friendlier about how unimpressed they are about her say she is like common, she is basic to them. Somebody like Gisele is exotic and rare and all of that . they are impressed by the Gisele and Alessandra type more than Adriana, so some say
  13. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    ^ she didn't lose it, she didn't have a chance. Thats the way it is up there for her. she will be doing something and I bet she will still be talked about because people outside of Brazil are probably gonna see gisele and wonder where adriana and alessandra are. Maybe they will do something for the closing. If not, I really don't care. Adriana has always been treated like that by brazil. Some of those people even say racist things about her. I think thats the reason for her treatment there, I think that's why she isn't that patriotic and thats why I could care less about them "accepting"her enough to do any of that . Shouldn't care.
  14. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    You mean the world cup? Honestly, Adriana still ended up getting more attention lol . We already know how brazil is with her, esp in contrast to gisele. She is going to shine on her own like the other times.
  15. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    geez means wow lol
  16. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    Geez, beautiful pic
  17. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    You can tell they are related, Adriana doesn't look much like her father anyway. Well she does when he was young, and this brother looks alot like her dad when he was young... as well as adriana agree the youngest one looks the least like her
  18. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    It looks like she may be a youtuber. Those people go places these days lol or maybe she has had the chance to work with a kardashian or something, you never know lol, some people get over 1 million if they have cute kids.
  19. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    She does have step brothers, the oldest one is on IG and follows her. I don't think adriana noticed yet he looks like adriana (you can tell thats her brother) and is cute https://www.instagram.com/natan.soaress/
  20. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    LOVE her skin tone right now
  21. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    ^ looks like stuff from one of her new veet commercials
  22. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    married She should post more videos, people loved that last one.It got attention on tumblr, more than most videos made by models usually get. Showed her cute personality
  23. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    Thats just how she sounds, can't do nothing about that. All the brazilian models except for Izbael I think have voices that don't match their face. But not their fault. Plus, she is running lol
  24. Souled-Out replied to Neo52285's post in a topic in Adriana Lima
    ^ lol, yay a video of her working out. Hope she does them more, like izabel
  25. lais has been there for a WHILE compared to all the others. And I like her, and I would love to see that with her, but she is like the extreme form of behati. I feel like VS would make her wait a long while. They don't even use her much anymore. They wait until she became an angel and then stopped. So damn backwards. To play devil's advocate, in addition she is a WOC, ok adriana is too, but you know, Literally only two highly considered black models have worn the fb, so far. Maybe VS will realize that lol. I wouldn't mind behati because, she has been there for awhile. And she was used to opening shows and stuff but I don't think there is time. Lily's bra not fitting her was a mistake lol. They would avoid a problem like that if they could, they can with behati and candice by not choosing them. Plus, they would have to still shoot for the stuff before the show. What they gonna be pregnant in their fb pictures? That or they gonna be really out of shape because they JUST gave birth lol. Then there bodies would be different by the time the show comes, they have to take care of their newborns in the middle of all this.. There is simply no time for that nor those kind of mishaps. They can make the show but getting the FB is pushing it. I know adriana is adriana but I think its suspicious how they been up her ass all of a sudden. Yeah they praise her from time to time, but not that much and yeah they do need help and I do think thats the motivation also for making her work again, but I also think it would be a good excuse in case she got the fb. Can't say she didn't do any work.They did not bring ale back with her to "help" the brand, ale is some good still. It was just Adriana. And it would bring them maximum press, (life is too short to pretend the NA are as big as she is, Adriana is international at this point. Like it or not, she is a bigger name and already a VS icon ) Her having a forth would also be a record, and could get people talking even more because it would be a record.
