Those articles are so annoying! It's like "we get it, VS models are skinny." a lot lot of people don't realize that VS girls also do HF and come to VS as a result. John and Sophia have brought a lot more girls that are more HF material lately.

I hope they don't follow the same routine when they do the show abroad: tape during the last week of November, edit the show in less than a week and then air in early December. I actually like it when they film during the second week of November. They get a breather period after the show tapes and before the PR tours. Their PR tours for the VSFS when it's taped abroad is tragic.

I agree. I loved how they included the music from Sexy Santa Helpers in 2014's commercial. I didn't like how they had two separate commercials. My favorite was the opera commercial with the older Angels, Martha, and Lais. I felt that the Private Affair commercial didn't match with the music. It sounded like it was from the 80's or 90's (not hating on the music from these decades, just pointing out one of my observations. Private Affair seemed very corny, even for VS.

I predict Taylor will open the show and Stella or Josephine will close the show. I also realized that Candice and Behati have opened the show between 2011 and 2015 (Adriana opened in 2012). As far as segments go, I predict we're getting another seductress/vixen segment like last year's Dark Angel and Secret Angel. I can also see them doing a heavily influenced millennial pink segment. I think PINK will be either a beach party/spring break theme or street wear themed like 2014 and 2016.

I'm over the idea of a double FB. It only worked for Ale and Adriana because they're the oldest Angels in terms of seniority. Also, they worked to build the brand into what it is today. By giving every model duo a double FB, whether it's Behandice or not, it devalues the legacy of the double FB and why it was done in the first place. The double FB sound like the VS version of a BFF charm bracelet.

I don't even know which of those three segments were the worst in my opinion. I only liked Exotic Traveler because of Alessandra's FB. The camera angles of Boho Psychedelic were too much. I always skip The Road Ahead when I rewatch last year's show. I feel like BP was a rainbow vomit of outfits and I couldn't get behind Road Ahead. It's one of the few VSFS segments where I don't like ANY outfits. None of them stood out as unique and different. It probably had to do with the fact that VS has done colorful/loud segments since 2014 so these outfits aren't as exciting, no matter how enthusiastic Sophia sounds during fittings when the models walk out.

It looks like it was a one time thing then I haven't seen a VS ad during Walking Dead since then so I guess they decided to treat themselves (and probably never do it again since it cost so much money).
-
I know this is a long shot but what if Ed/Behati are trolling us and her first shoot for VS is going to be the FB shoot? Then they can hype up her return by not only saying she's back but is wearing the FB as well. On the other hand, I agree with CandleVixen. I don't see Behati returning to VS and committing full time like Lily, who hasn't had another baby since Dixie was born in 2012. I don't think she'll get an exclusive contract like Alessandra, who only shows up for the holiday shoot and show, yet gets a nice hefty paycheck.
-
Yes, I have seen Angels in Bloom and I loved it! Candice and Shanina's outfits were my favorites. I do agree that they can do a segment like this as long as it's executed right. VS should do the FB selection based on seniority. I'm still salty about the fact that Doutzen never got a FB, she was one of my favorite Angels. They should be more stricter/exclusive in regards to the FB selection process. Behati isn't my top Angel but I do think she should get the FB based on seniority. That would suck if she were the only original Angel in the lineup without a FB. I was actually shocked that she didn't get it in 2013 or 2014, since she got engaged and married in those respective years.

This was a long time ago (more like October 2015) but they aired a commercial for Very Sexy that included Jac, Lily, and Behati during commercial breaks for The Walking Dead. Walking Dead has high ratings for a Sunday night show that isn't U.S. football related. So I think VS commercials are more likely to air during commercial breaks of shows with high ratings. It was this commercial! The fact that I still remember which exact commercial aired is beyond me. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I was so surprised to see a VS commercial while watching Walking Dead. Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Push Up - Fall 2015

Themes I would LOVE to see: Royalty, Jewels (models would wear body pieces like the one Jasmine wore last year in her FB outfit), flowers/garden. These are my top three. If there's another ice/snow theme in future shows I'm going to scream. Same with seductive/dark, especially since Dark Angel and Secret Angel were basically the same thing last year. I've had enough of recycled themes. VS mainly gives an Angel the FB if she's had a baby within the past year (to pimp out the post baby return) or they're promoting their top girl (ex: Candice). Who do you guys think will get the FB this year and for which reason(s)?
-
I'm actually not surprised that he cut her off. I find Jimmy Fallon to be an annoying talk show host. He often times interrupts the guests during the interview and his laugh grinds my gears to oblivion. He tries to make everything into a joke. I love his Lip Sync Battle segment though.

@PastaFreak thank you for your response! The one person who I would be more than happy to see leave (and never be booked again) the VSFS production team is Sarah Potempa and her campaign to make the Beachwaver a thing. I have never tried the Beachwaver but it's marketing image is garbage. $125 for a wand that gives you limp noodle waves?? I had a Remington curling wand that I bought for $20 and I got much better curls than the tragic Beachwaver curls. If the hair actually looked good, then I'd be happy with Sarah staying. However, it never really looks good on the models and many of them look like they either rolled out of bed. I would love for VS to change up their hair and makeup in general for the show. I get they want the girls to look "natural" but it's the VSFS, their prime holiday marketing spot. The girls need to look glam at the show, especially when they go all out for hair and makeup during the holiday commercial. The lights at the show wash out the girls' make up big time.

if Candice were to get the FB again, she would be the first Angel (in recent memory) to get a custom fit/molded FB after having a baby. when Alessandra got in 2012, they were still putting the jewels on an actual bra. I don't think they're going to go that route this year especially since it would be seen as a FB downgrade for Candice. Her first FB being stunning (in my opinion) and made especially for her while her second FB is just a regular Bombshell bra (or whatever new style they're promoting around the time of the show) with the jewels attached.
-
Supposedly Taylor Swift is working on a new album so VS is definitely going with her. As a result, Katy is out because we all know about Katy and Taylor's feud. I doubt VS would want both performers to be generating negative press along the lines of cat fights backstage and throwing shade at each other. I could also see them booking Zayn not only because it's extra media attention (his relationship with Gigi) but he and Taylor could sing their duet "I Don't Want to Live Forever" from Fifty Shades Darker. They'll probably book Maroon 5 too for the sake of Behati's return to VS.

It's a no from me in regards to Justin Bieber performing again. However, I can see it happening with the girls appearing in his next video and how much everyone (Lais in particular) loves "Despacito." The Weeknd and Bruno Mars are the only performers that have performed twice that I actually like. VS really needs new performers. I'm surprised they've never gotten Drake to perform at the show. I'd love for them to have Kehlani but I don't think she's mainstream enough for VS to book her, let alone she's probably not big enough in China. Kendrick Lamar just came out with a new album recently but I don't think he fits VS' vibe. I'm not getting my hopes up for good performers this year.
-
I think Elsa is the next in line FB wise. Out of the NA, she's the one I have my bets on. I was happy last year that Jasmine got it and it's way too soon for Josephine to get it but you never know with VS. behati might get the Doutzen treatment now. Bee hasn't shot for VS and unless her first VS shoot post baby is the FB shoot, I doubt she's getting it. I'm rooting for Candice to get it again if a NA doesn't get the FB this year.

Doutzen, Adriana, Constance, Barbara, Ming, Sigrid, Sui and Lais

^LOL @ dat gif XD I don't know I never really had much of a problem with Cara. I know she doesn't really fit the typical VS look and her walk is a bit off, but the same can be said for some of the other girls VS casted in the show this year and in the past and at least she brings somewhat more attention to the show due to her popularity and is actually one of the few actual British models that will most likely walk the British Invasion segment. Glozell = Spirit Animal I just really hate Cara, her walk is awful (worse than all the other girls), and she treats everything like a joke. The fact VS states "We want girls with the walk, the body and the personality", makes me want to slap them, contradiction! Everyone already practically hates the show, everyone on instagram is mourning over the performers and it is just not going good I can believe they picked her over Bregje. Ridiculous.
-
Okay so if Fall Out Boy performs in Birds of Paradise, where are all the other performers going? I'd honestly have a remix in British Invasion. A performance would distract from Candice, especially since she's supposedly (I'm not too sure if she is) opening the show with the Fantasy Bra. I think Taylor is performing "Back To December" in Snow Angels, Neon Jungle in PINK performing "Trouble" and A Great Big World performing "Say Something" in Parsian Nights.
