I'll be the first to say it....I bet all the money I have Adriana is pregnant. Her face is bloated, she's dressing in all black, her tummy is obvious, and her breasts are much bigger. If she's about 3-4 months along it would be around the time her tummy would have "popped" recently.....I'm guessing she'll announce it soon but it's getting very obvious.

Lol I seriously was not barking at you guys I simply think its laughable how all of you were getting so worked about it. The godly quote simply came from some of the things that were being said I didn't want it to head that way though it often does with Adriana. As for knowing it was a joke, I find it rather obvious with the rose and her referencing it by pointing to it. I think saying its inappropriate to say its not like how a mother should be acting I don't think (my opinion only) this is bad at all, as opposed to mothers who drink at home or out with friends and etc. Again just my opinion and as for promoting herself the sole reason is because her agency is telling her to do so. On her personal Facebook she doesn't even speak about work except on rare occasions. Also it's kind of on obvious she had a flesh colored g-string on since nobody sits around on set with a short button up shirt on and no underwear and considering this woman is modest enough when she shoots VS swim she always requests to wear one under the swimsuits so no revealing shots can be taken by paparazzi (a friend from vs informed me of this who works on the shoots) you can even see that in the recent pap shots. Overall I think the photo is hilarious and not cheap in the least but that's my opinion only everyone is allowed to express heir opinion but while not taking down someone's character and that is why I spoke up because I felt that was where the convo was headed As for the quote "Never meet your hero..." I TOTALLY agree with this, people don't seem to realize this. I seen MANY people this weekend get crushed when they met their idols (lots of celebs in my state/town this last week) and SO many people were crushed once they met them I've been lucky enough to know a few people who don't change but most of them are totally different people and some are the same. Usually the religious ones do tend to be more the same (not exactly as their public persona but pretty close) *cough* tebow *cough* Believe me I am well aware people have public personas and then their original selves I see this almost every day. ILuv LMAO I love the photo!!!!!!

Not explosive I was laughing my way through it that people would make such outrageous comments about an obvious photo that was meant to be a joke...people read WAY to much into things. I think it's laughable.

oh my freaking Lord! Guys she's a 30 year old woman who was having some fun and making a joke! For goodness sake. She had a flesh colored g-string on and it was a simple joke. It doesn't mean she's any less modest, it doesn't mean she's any less "Godly" it just means she was having fun on set. I'm sorry but a woman in her late twenties or early thirties who doesn't have a sexual sense of humor is as boring as a board...hell she's showed this side before when talking about her favorite part of her husband. Goodness people...don't you think if she really really wanted the attention like an attention hog she would have shown her face. As for her posting pictures from catalogs and etc she's being told to do that by brands and her agency...it's part of her JOB she doesn't do it just for attention. Do you think celebs just tweet photos of themselves and promote products for the hell of it? Uh No.

When they are basically planning the bra now, there would be no accurate way to have any idea where she is going to be for the bra. When they put so much work into the bra they aren't going to have it thrown together in a matter of two months. Don't forget they always go for press and there are some HUGE things coming up for Doutzen. Adriana is going to be appearing on a show Heidi couldn't even appear on, let alone Tyra on mainstream TV. I think Ale is going to fall short this year. Like I said I can see her opening and etc but the bra is just to risky for VS to put on her at this time. Honestly not that the bra even matters anymore, it hardly gets shown...so really it's who opens the show or gets the best outfits. Eh, we'll see. Agree to disagree

They have to start creating the bra in Feb-March, hence they pick out the cup size then...in the last couple years I believe they started in late Jan early Feb. There is no way they will be able to get an accurate idea of what she is going to be then. Plus they not only have to pick out the cup size, it will also depend of what cut they want the bra to be and who is willing to make it. I guarantee Ale won't get it this year, my guess is she could open the show as her big come back and etc but there is no way they are going to pick out the bra, size it, create it, in June and have it shot in July/August and ready to release in September. Esp when Fall is a big time for them for other launches. That's assuming Ale even plans on coming back that fast anyway. We'll just wait and see.

about 2 months, and women don't really start to show they are pregnant until about the 4th month and on and tall women are usually even later. Women don't get pregnant and then 2 days later LOOK pregnant.

I doubt she'll get the bra...there just won't be enough time at all. They shoot the bra early June through mid July and before then they have to at least have an idea of what size the girl will be. If she gives birth in May/June depending on how far along she is, she won't have enough time to be fitted, and crafted.

huh? That makes NO sense. If you are trying to ask if this was her last show (or that she's retiring) No, not for several more years this has been confirmed.

Seriously VS you are killing me lol! Looks like their spring line is going to be spectacular, I've already spent over 2,000 dollars with VS for their Christmas stuff...I need to have a job just for my VS obsession!

Actually they highlighted several college parties on some local news stations, as well as on the pre-show for VSFS about the parties going on...so. Also I'm not saying everyone tuned in to see the girls, I'm saying there are MANY reasons people tuned in not just the girls or the performers, but to say the performers pulled in the biggest crows is beyond misleading. Either way VS got the ratings...so moving on.

There are several types of people who tuned in for the show. Sorry to say, bust just 600k tuning in for the show is bull...again I'm willing to say 50/50 and that's on the low side. There are MANY MANY people who tuned into the show for many reasons 1. They shop VS and watched the show 2. There was really nothing else on and it was good to tune in to 3. They actually have a favorite model and wanted to check it out 4. They actually love the VS brand and watched it for that 5. Or it was a tradition every year they tune in (I know tons of people like that) 6. College parties to view the show (There were thousands of those going on) 7. People who tuned in for the artists I'm not saying the artists didn't pull in people but to compare them with google search results..how about run them in google trends the for the Month of November 2011, run Kayne, Adriana, and Maroon 5 you'll see Adriana and Maroon 5 are pretty equal all month with Maroon being a tad bit higher, but near the end of the month (or the day the show aired) Adriana spikes majorly above the rest. So yes while certain people tuned in to see the performers, I'd say honestly it's probably more 25/75 than 9,000,000 tuning for the performers. I was on twitter with several friends that night and had several gf's over to watch the show and I was watching my best friends twitter account on her phone (she was checking at the same time) and I on mine several people we knew along with people in the general search of #VSfashion show were tuning in to see the show...barely any mentioned the performers. If they did most of it was not in good light (aka Kanye)

Seriously are you surprised?? You tweet her like 50-75 times a day (not kidding) (and No I'm not jealous) Anyway, yes I agree people have been thinking she's retiring for like the last 3-4 years she's not going anywhere lol. People need to give it up.

No she's planning on resigning her contract once it's up in two years and she plans on resigning for another 5 years. The reason she was doing those things was because she got a great applause (this was said by people who attended the show) you couldn't hear it in the show but she had the loudest appluase and she was thanking them for it. Adriana has said in 99% of her interviews recently she doesn't plan on retiring anytime soon.

At the time I thought she had just resigned, but I was then told by three people who work for VS and have a bit of insight she resigned in early 08 so she would resigning soon. They couldn't tell me details past that of course but we already know she and Ale both have 5 year contracts as opposed to the girls who have 3. Adriana has stated recently several times she isn't going anywhere and the company has groomed her to take over Heidi's spot which she basically has. Adriana won't be going anywhere for quite some time. My HONEST guess is that she'll work for these next two years and then sign a three year contract instead of the five and bow out after that. Plus considering she's still got a HUGE fanbase (hello she was the only girl trending last night beside Chanel) she's not going anywhere. I'm sorry but comparing her to Heidi in the sense you were is ridiculous Heidi didn't have the body (IMO) to continue nor did she age well at all. Considering Adriana has recently turned back the clock somehow and she looks like her old '03-04 self as long as she keeps it up and brings in the viewers and fans like she does VS isn't going to get rid of her anytime soon. Most people I know tuned in for the show itself, and most people didn't even know before last week the performers that were in it. The commercials came on and that's when the mass public learned about it for the most part. I'm sorry but after watching the feeds come in from facebook and twitter last night, I'd say 75% of viewers were viewing it because of the show and models and the performers came secondary. Even if you want to go extreme and it was 50/50 it wasn't any less than that, those performers are not going to pull that many viewers on their own. At the end of the day it doesn't really matter what pulled in the viewers they got the ratings and that's really all their is to it.

It doesn't really matter what pulled in the ratings, because VS will look at it as a whole and won't change a thing.

not anywhere near....shes got 2 more years left on her current contract and she is planning on resigning

It's nice to know the flash is not kind to anyone lol

That's different. She approved that image, she said "hey it's okay for my fans to have this" but for people to take photos of her daughter without her agreeing to it...is wrong (even though I enjoy seeing these) I think taking pics of celebs kids are wrong.

That she goes to school (probably daycare) and that she (Val) is two years old now.

I'm glad she cleared that up...it didn't seem legit. The rumors are everywhere! Her agent reads thefashionspot plus it's all over the news and facebook my guess is Chris or Mo got a hold of it and let her know. She doesn't read these boards except for thefashionspot, lima-fans.com that she's confirmed in person so my guess is one of her agents seen it.

Actually whoever got those, really got them from startraks...not getty.

She looks SO much like Adriana! I'm hoping we'll see more of her now that Adriana is on twitter!

Thank you for the tips. I agree fasting is good in short bursts like you say. I 100% agree with water! I wish I would drink more of it...it's so hard, but I try to find ways to mix it up (lemon wedges, etc.). I just feel it's silly for a supermodel to be so thin in lingerie. She looks great with a fuller face and a bit hippier body. But, again, that's just my opinion. LOL as health conscious as I am and even though I do water fasts...I myself HATE plain water...so I understand I usually get lemon juice and squeeze it in the bottle and shake it up. Sometimes I even get crystal light packets and those are great as well.

I have to disagree but agree at the same time. For a girl to be "curvy" in my opinion you have to be hourglass, and most men would agree. That's how I would classify myself, because that's what my personal measurements are. As for breasts not coming in to consideration I think is off...to say the very least. To say a woman's breasts doesn't come into play but hips should doesn't make any type of sense, I believe for a woman to be considered curvy she should be hourglass, which is a bust, to waist, to hip ratio not just one or the other at all. It really takes breasts and hips along with a indented waist to be "curvy" Most men are NOT going to look at a woman with a "hip to waist" ratio and small boobs and call her curvy...it does take boobs on top of that. Like I said because of working with women at a gym and being very conscious about my body as well I've studied other women and how bodies, loose, gain and hold weight and like I said in my personal pinon. for the word "curvy" to be used IMO the woman should be hourglass shaped, bigger breasts, small waist, equal hips to bust. But that's just my opinion
