Thanx so much, Jess. I was just so darn tired when I posted those that I just couldn't bear to go through the job of fixing it. Once again, the sweetie, Jess, comes through!

Did you notice how drawn out I made the announcement from Billabong? That was to try my best to push to page 59. I've tried but I'm beginning to think there is NO page 59! C'mon 59! Where the heck are you?????

Thanx, Jess, for that bigger pic I'm thinkin' she and Danny look so good together. They have surfing in common and they have known each other for a long, long time. He's a babe! I'm beginning to think page 59 is impossible to reach. I've posted as much as I could tonight and I'm making no progress

Here are some pics from the shoot for Billabong YAY, TORI! EDIT: WAIT! What happened? I can't open them. I'll have to figure this out. I'm too tired now. If anyone can help, feel free. *cough** Jess* cough *Jess* tpbillabong1.bmp tpbillabong2.bmp tpbillabong3.bmp tpbillabong4.bmp tpbillabong5.bmp tpbillabong6.bmp tpbillabong7.bmp tpbillabong8.bmp tpbillabong9.bmp tpbillabong10.bmp tpbillabong1.bmp tpbillabong2.bmp tpbillabong3.bmp tpbillabong4.bmp tpbillabong5.bmp tpbillabong6.bmp tpbillabong7.bmp tpbillabong8.bmp tpbillabong9.bmp tpbillabong10.bmp

NEWSFLASH: Billabong's sexy saviour Ben Dillaway December 11th, 2008 SHE'S graced magazine covers and catwalks around the world but Tori Praver was just another, albeit stunning, face in the crowd yesterday. The gorgeous 22-year-old, who has appeared in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue twice, spent the day doing a shoot for Billabong at locations across the Gold Coast. But the Burleigh-based brand is hoping the American stunner will be more than just a pretty face. The surfwear giant has just signed the leggy blonde to become its international face as it fights the effects of the global financial crisis. Last week, Billabong cut its profit forecast by as much as 10 per cent. It said the deteriorating trading conditions at a consumer level, mainly in the US where the bulk of its business is, were behind its profit forecast downgrade. Billabong Girls marketing manager Jessica Tye said signing Praver was part of a global strategy to boost the brand. "We're trying to be a little bit more global," she said. "She'll be used in the European, US and Australian shoots. "If we can all use the same girl it helps bring all the regions together. "And it always does help to have a lead model with a bit of a story as well." Praver grew up in Hawaii by the beach before being discovered by Cindy Kauanui of Jet Set Models after appearing in Outside magazine. She has graced the cover of Cosmopolitan, Glamour and Cover magazines while also doing work for Guess, Yamamay and Liu-Jo. Having grown up surfing, Praver said signing with Billabong provided some welcome relief from the cut throat catwalks of the fashion world. "I've always done high fashion stuff so it's a nice change," she said. "It's fun more than anything and really exciting. "I'm really happy about it." Ms Tye said Praver was a perfect fit for Billabong. "As much as we are about fashion we have our roots in surfing so we can't walk away from that too much," she said. "To be able to combine them is awesome." During the shoot, which also included model Alana Brennan, Praver turned Cavill Avenue into a catwalk as she strutted through Surfers in style. "The beach here is beautiful but it's so hot," said Praver. "Hopefully we'll have time to go surfing but I don't know. "It has been a lot of work shooting so far so I haven't had a chance yet but hopefully I will before I go." Ms Tye said the shoot was about 'bringing it back to where it all began'. "We're really excited to be doing it on the Gold Coast again," she said. "The models are both surfers so we're staying true to who we are." Along with the Surfers Paradise sign, the Main Beach Pavilion and 'the shed' at Kirra were also used. "We wanted the shoot to highlight icons of the Gold Coast so people knew where we were shooting," said Ms Tye. "Many of our other shoots are done overseas so because we were doing something at home we wanted to make sure it had that flavour." Images from the shoot, which continues today, will be used to promote Billabong's 2009 summer range. Gold Coast Australia
