April 1, 201510 yr Not really a surprise, after that Pink event you're super right, i was expecting too
April 2, 201510 yr She's done mainline a couple times before and I thought she looked great. Hopefully they eventually put her back in that. Pink is just a series of boring, repetitive photos that all blend together. I can't get excited about them.
April 2, 201510 yr ^ Agreed... But those at least look good enough in my opinion. Hope she does mainline again then.
April 2, 201510 yr The second one is decent... the first does no favors for that eye issue she has. xD But I don't like the lighting, either. *crawls back under rock to wait for mainline Emily*
April 2, 201510 yr At the moment, PINK includes Emily, Gigi, Rachel, Sara, and occasionally Vita. (Romee?) This is a STRONG lineup, in which every model could be mainline for VS at any time. Just sayin'.
April 2, 201510 yr ^I dont think Emily is part of this line up yet. Plus Romee is exclusively mainline, VS trying to market her as Candice 2.0 :neo2:
April 2, 201510 yr Actually, even if she attended the Pink event, I'm super excited to see her posing for VS pink. I've been waiting for this day for sooooooo long!
April 3, 201510 yr @emilydidonato1: In the locker room pre ride. I had so much fun last night at my @soulcycle for @stjude charity ride! Still so excited that we raised over 9k for St. Jude!!!! ❤❤ @taye_jay @stjude @imgmodels
April 6, 201510 yr Has this been posted?Emily DiDonato forElle Italia, october2014 - Interviewsource: emilydidonatoitaly.tumblr.com/post/97840383624/emily-didonato-for-elle-italia-october-2014It must have been nice to buy ahouse."I still don’t believe that’s mine! I wasin rent and I said to myself: "I want tostay here in New York for a while." SoI searched for some apartments withmy mother and I felt so adult. At theend I found this with a chimney, in anold building with one bedroom. I stilllike to look for a house in New Yorkand sometimes I think to buy anotherone."It’s one of that condominium thatasks for references?"Exactly. My mother helped me."What type is your mother?"She’s extraordinary. She’s a full timemom with three of us brothers. She’sbeautiful: blue eyes and grizzled hair.When I started modeling I brought mymother with me and all still rememberabout her. Fabien Baron (artisticdirector, ndr) and the photographerPatrick Demarchelier always ask abouther. Incredible, right? That’s becauseit’s easy to talk with her. She’s funny(at high school they gave to her theprize for best clown of the class): shewas a real tomboy!"Is she a sporty type?"Both my parents are. They go inmountain bike, we do it togetherwhen I go found them. They are verysporty and in shape! You want to sayto them: "C’mon, stop it!". We’ve alsodone 11 miles in the woods the lasttime that I’ve been there. And theyhave almost sixty years."What work does your father do?"Now he’s in pension but he was afirefighter in the Bronx for almostthirty years. When I was a little girl Ididn’t realize, then I figured out howmuch risky his work was. He’s a toughguy."What do your siblings think aboutyour success?"I think they’re proud but we nevertalk about it."Do you have italian ancestry?"My last name is italian but mygrandparents were born in New York.We don’t talk italian but we eatspaghetti on sundays."How was your school?"When I was 14 I went to a little schoolcatholic private mixed, my parentschose that school because of theintense sports program."You were very sporty?"Yes, I loved basket, soccer butespecially lacrosse. I put my soul in it.But when I started modeling I had tostop: there was no need to riskpunches in the face! Then they toldme that if I wanted to become a fulltime model I had to stop acting like aboy."It seems that you are moreinterested at your shape forminstead of your beauty."I always prefered to push my body tothe limit from the perspective ofathletic rather than think: "Oh God,I’m pretty!". It’s boring. I’ve justreturned from a course at the gymcalled Red Carpet Ready. But sooneror later I’ll be back on the basketballcourt. In the meanwhile, I’m doing theSLT."What’s SLT?"It’s a form of Pilates. The namemeans Strenghten, Lenghten, Tone. Itexists by three years and I follow thiscourse twice a week, more someother course. Sometimes I go runningor I do gym at home."How do you train yourself?"I’m obsessed with the DVD of fitness.I buy them on the Internet, I’ve got ahundred of those DVD’s. One of themit’s called "Insanity"! Another is intitled"Brazilian Butt Lift". So when I am ontrip I keep myself on shape in a littleroom."Is it true that it’s been a familyfriend to suggest you to become amodel?"Yes, a photographer. He gave to mea number of an agency where I wentwith my mother. They looked at meand said: "We’re going to send youimmediatly to some customer.". I waswearing some shorts and a top, andthat same day I was engaged fromRalph Lauren. I couldn’t believe, I wasscared."How was your first shooting?"All the people that were there thatday are still my friends, we’re afamily."Where your job takes you?"To Los Angeles, Paris, London. Lastweek I was in Mexico City, the nextone I am going to Costa Rica; I havenot seen much of Italy, I’ve saw onlyMilan and Venice. I’ve been at theHawaii, where I shot my firstcommercial for Armani. Or inSwitzerland and in Namibia, for SportsIllustrated."In Switzerland you were in bikini onthe snow, I think you felt cold…"I felt more cold in Namibia. InSwitzerland at that altitude the sunburns. There where a lot of people."You mean the equipe?"Not only them. When you shootoutside there are always a lot ofpeople that stare at you, I imaginethey think: "Look at her, what is shedoing?"But the whole troupe supports you,right?"Sure. It’s a team work, everything hasto be OK. Sometimes the situationbecomes tiring: you’re cold, you’rehot, you’re tired, but there’s alwayssomeone that you have connectionwith and they help you."Talk to us about the last video forGiorgio Armani."It was different from the first oneshot in the Hawaii. In the first one Iwas really tanned. In this one I have abit of make up. It’s the same woman,but now more transparent andbeautiful."Wich was the most excitingexperience?"Without no doubt the spot forArmani. I wasn’t even 18, I wasterrified and I was so excited. Ilearned so much: I was surroundedby people with a lot of talent likeFabien Baron, and Acqua di Gioiabrought me so many opportunitiesfor my career."You have thrown yourself into thisprofession. Are you stressedsometimes?"This could happen at anybody and inany work. If I feel stressed I slowdown, I take care of myself, I read abook, I go for a run and I calm down.I call a friend or my mother and I amready to go."Besides your mother, who do youcall?"Ali Michael, she’s a model but withthe head on her shoulders."Do you have a role model?"Besides my mother I’d say ChristyTurlington, she is my muse. I met herfor a spot: they put us together in alittle bus and we started talking. She isstrong, beautiful, she has kids, afamily and she works since the 90’s."Do you fall in love sometimes?"It doesn’t happen to me so often,what kind of love would that be? Butright now I have a boyfriend."How is he?"I don’t want to talk about it too muchbut he’s a good guy that I met somemonths ago. I can say that he’samerican, blond and he’s not insidethe fashion industry. I am reallyhappy."So I guess he’s not ugly…[Laughs] “No, he’s not ugly.”Source: emilydidonatoitaly#emily didonato #elle #elle italia#interview #model #MINE #txt#my txt
April 6, 201510 yr I'm glad she is doing VS again but if she gets stuck with Pink for the next three years I'll die a little, she's too old for it o.o
