The dream board usually has twice as many girls than actual spots so I take it that it was their preliminary casting. Girls that dont make it, like Frida, get moved to the rightside of the board. Last year, I remember Frida, Tatyana Kovylina, Jessica Hart, Gracie, Jourdan, Eniko, etc all being moved to the right side.

I was surprised that Frida didn't make it last year. Then again, I was also surprised that Toni didn't make the year before.

Agreed. I think it's amazing that she- along with Julia- have been in more VS shows than the majority of models that have ever worked with them, including angels. Granted, Winberg has been cast as an alternate to Trentini a couple of times, but I've grown accustomed to seeing them both there.

Yeah, I hear that's a common trait for the Dutch. She was even more honest about alot of things in that documentary about her from awhile back.

Doutzen specifically stated that she eventually agreed to sign with them because of the financial gain and opportunity.

She has a showcard for Milan, so hopefully she shows up somewhere

Watch the "color" theme be the trainwreck that is PINK. Trainwreck... now that is a better clue. <_< I'm guessing "All year" will be a four seasons theme, whiich, if done right, has alot of potential.

Is it weird that I love karlie, yet I totally agree with this?

It's nice to see them use Doutzen so much now. I remember how people would speculate that her contract was on the chopping block leading up to the show the last THREE shows LOL I'm curious to know what's going on with Chanel's contract .

Well, if you have back problems, breast reduction is a common procedure. I have a feeling that she, Jeisa, and maybe even Emanuela had reductions.

I don't think she would have gotten fake ones, considering that they hindered her initial high fashion success and the fact that she has back problems.

That was only a few months after she had her baby though. She's definitely not that full now Yeah, Leticia's shape is amazing. I was always a fan of Karen, Daniela, and Stephanie (even though her walk was pretty mediocre). And as annoying as she may be, Tyra definitely looked great in Swim too. For non angels, I'd have to go with Eva, Emanuela, and Jeisa

I think it's admirable Doutzen, a model who mainly gets paid to wear underwear and swimsuits, opted to risk having her breast shrink in order to breast-feed her son. I do hope that she or Miranda open the show.

Are their wings ever just (bird) wings anymore? And why does PINK look the same year after year. The only years with a distinguishable theme for the PINK segment were 2006 and 2007 (and the 2005 precursor).

I'm guessing that he probably meant that he was proud that she was being prominently feature, although I wouldn't be too surprised if she did end up contracted. VS seems to have fascination with Afro-Latinas.

I think KK was literally exhausted by the time she had gotten her contracted. She had done more in the years leading up to that then most models will ever accomplish in their entire careers, Didnt she work for like 20 weeks straight at one point That, the curves that she gained, and the fact that contacted girls then had more exclusivity with the brand is what led to her becoming complacent.

Taken from http://news.bgfashio...riz_barros.php:

Ana did turn down a contract in favor of of Loreal. Im guessing she was offered on around 2004-2005.
