Latest results: Michelle Lombardo - 68% Amy Wesson - 32% Ana Paula Lemes - 79% Quiana Grant - 21% Michelle Lombardo and Ana Paula Lemes will face each other in Round 2 of the Qualifying Draw.

The winner will advance to the Main Draw. All of these matches were surprises to me, in one way or another. I thought Quiana Grant would advance, but she was wiped out by Ana Paula Lemes. In the other two matches, I expected those winners, but not by those huge margins.

Hi, everyone. Here's just my periodic reminder to vote in the SI Swimsuit Model Tournament linked in my signature, held over at another section of Bellazon. The first results are in, and there are many interesting matches going on, including one just opened today featuring Michelle Vawer vs. Kenza Fourati. I hope the interruption is okay... a few of you regulars encouraged my reminders. Regarding SI 2014, it's looking like an awesome lineup so far! I'm excited. I always have the same prayer each year, though: "Please don't Photoshop and make the models into cartoons." Some years, it has been absurd. Last year was slightly less so, but many website photos were butchered. Thanks to all of you sleuths out there for piecing together the models appearing. It's fun to read!

Personally, I voted: Orton, Crawford, Becker, and de Rosnay. (Yeah, I get a vote, too, right? Why not?) I think the match between Crawford and Piek is interesting. I think Piek is gorgeous, but drawing an all-time supermodel in the first round of qualifying is just tough luck! Four more matches coming in a few hours!

Sure, I don't see why not! I'm interested!

Thanks! I will have just one photo, like this, per matchup. For those that advance to the next round, I'm using a different photo, or if one doesn't exist, the same one. The reason, really, is that I'm limiting the photos used to those that were in the magazine or otherwise taken by SI via their swimsuit DVD, etc. In many cases, especially the older models, they had just one photo in their appearance in the magazine. As far as voting goes, that's handled by the polling service. They use cookies and IP address magic to ensure no fraud happens (or at least limits it.) I'm glad you enjoy it! Check back for more every day.

Voting is now open, and the tournament has officially begun! Today's matches are the first four of the Qualifying Round. Use the links to vote, which will literally take about a second to do. I'm really curious and excited to see how all of this ultimate turns out! All matches and other info about the tournament is here.

Hello, Bellazon swimsuit lovers. As suggested, I'm just posting a link to the SI Swimsuit Model Tournament that I created. You can read all about it and discuss here: http://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/49760-si-swimsuit-model-tournament-2013-vote-beginning-sept-4/

I've uploaded the initial brackets to an image host, so I'm linking to those here. I'll post my thoughts on some of the matchups later. Feel free to comment on some of the matches that most interest you! Main Draw: Qualifying Draw: Note: I edited both brackets on Sept. 5, because I found an error in my data for Michelle Alves. Without getting into the gory details, that has knock-on effects because of the ranking computations I used. So, the brackets changed ever so slightly. The changes: Michelle Alves & Jarah Mariano swap places (Alves to Main Draw, Mariano to Qualifying Draw), and Brooklyn Decker & Petra Nemcova swap places (Nemcova is now correctly the #16 seed, and Decker is #17). Ironically - and thankfully - this changes almost nothing, as the #16 and #17 face one another rather early on. Note 2: I edited the main draw on Oct. 1, correcting seeds between 15-25. All other slots were unaffected.
