I'm kinda surprised Mia is gone after 1 year- MJ kinda hyped her up so I assumed she'd be back. I'm not surprised Kelly is gone. Nina first year was 2011 if I'm correct--I'm surprised she's out but 7 issues is quite a lot. I really liked Hannah F in the beginning but last year's work wasn't as good. I figured Hannah Jeter and Robyn were likely out. Bo is the biggest surprise exit , and I'm very disappointed. I thought she killed it both years. Why is Sam still around? I always liked Kate Bock, last year was not good but I'll give her another chance I do like the rookie class more or less from what I've seen. I LOVE Jasmyn! Interesting turn of events.....

The post said this: LAST SHOT of #SISwim 2018! Unless it's just that location. But, damn. No Nina? No Hannah? Mysterious indeed

They just posted a video on Facebook saying this was the last shot for 2018. So it looks like we may have our lineup. And did I miss it, or was there no body paint shoot this year? If so, no problem here, that has run it's course IMO

Two thumbs up for Jasmyn!! Very good choice

hopefully Kate's pics and vids are better this year. I've always liked her but last year was...... not good

Knowing how big of a Genevieve fan @jj3 is, and being aware he has conversed with her on social media (it's out there on twitter if you care to dig into it), I give him the benefit of the doubt unless something comes up that suggests that the Genevieve that posted on here is not, in fact, Genevieve

Yeah I actually read your post after I made mine.. probably not the order that should have been done lol.

Wow, this escalated quickly didn't it? Here's the thing...we've gotten so used to having everything anyone ever does posted to the internet with no consequences that we've gotten spoiled. I am in my mid 40's and thus can remember the days before the internet, when ANY calendar/pinup photo one could get their hands on was like gold. Now, one google search and you can get almost anything you want. I think because so few models/companies put up any kind of a fight over this that we're taken aback when someone DOES say "whoa, wait, this isn't right. I want control over this". It's tough to do in this internet age, where one leak means an image can be anywhere in seconds. While I of course welcome any image/video of the lovely @genevievemorton I can view, I do not blame her for wanting to maintain some control of how her work is distributed. And I do hope no one holds her in lower esteem for the stand she has taken. It is her right to do so. And there is certainly plenty of other material of her out there for us to view and appreciate

I love her more and more every day. All of the updates are very much appreciated

It looks like the new issue is out. http://worldswimsuit.com/

Dear God in heaven

I like her. Wouldn't mind her in the issue at all

For amusement purposes only.....My guesses of the odds of appearing in 2018 (amateur guesses, you folks know much more than I do) Models from 2017 missing - Samantha Hoopes 40%. I keep thinking she's gone and she keeps coming back or I'd have a lower number - Ashley Graham 80% No way MJ cast aside one of her favorites after 2 years - Nina Agdal 85% i hope she's back because they botched her shoot with that awful lighting IMO - Chrissy Teigen 80%. Only reason that's not 100 is this would be year 9 for her, a long time by SI standards - Hannah Davis 10% I'm surprised she appeared in 2017, would be twice as stunned if she returned in 2018 - Bo Krsmanovic 90% She's killed it in both of her years IMO- no way she's not back - Vita Sidorkina-gone, going on Clauds word - Kelly Gale- gone, going on Clauds word - Kate Bock - 25% Like Hannah D, I was surprised to see her in '17. - Hannah Ferguson - 70%. Like Nina, I didn't like her pics last year so i hope she gets another shot - Robyn Lawley- no idea, but I read earlier she's probably back? - Mia Kang - 95%. Clearly an MJ favorite - Rose Bertram (pregnant, 99% confirmed she won't be back)- assumed gone based on that if this is close, that's 3 pretty much gone, 2 I think are gone, and 1 more likely gone than not. That's 6. And we have 6 rookies, so.... We'll see how good my guesses (with some help for the knowledgable posters here) are as we get closer

Loving DaniL in the Wurth calendar!!

Me too. I wish they could somehow use the Alexis of 2 years ago. I really like Raven. I'm very optimistic about all of this so far

I think Myla is absolutely gorgeous. When SI and others talk of healthy body types, THIS is what they should be promoting. She has meat on her bones, but she's not at all fat. It's the same thing I always liked about Kate Upton, though Kate is certainly more "toned" now. I like Ashley Graham and other "plus" models, but I think that concept has been taken too far. Myla is perfect. i don't think I'd change a thing. Oh, and those boobs!!

Marilyn Monroe lookalike?

I like some of these models... just not for SI. Olivia is certainly a keeper Dessie would be good for the issue IMO and maybe Kayla. The rest? No. I like some of them, but.. again..not for SI. I'm cool with the diversity thing, i really am. This bunch just doesn't do it for me. Also, before we all panic, I think only one of these girls is getting in. So, breathe everyone.

This open casting call thing seemed like a great idea in theory. So far the reality has been far less great. I kinda like Kassandra but the others so far? Meh

Thanks for posting the Treats pics @summer89 You are a great human being

Dear God in heaven

All these videos are now on SI's site except for Danielle's, which I'm sure will show up shortly as well. Myla's video is about as close to NSFW as SI videos get

Myla and Bo and Danielle too
