They stick to most of their models every year, they only have five or six new girls every year. Most of the models are returners from previous years. From the 2012 Rookies Nina Agdal (who btw was voted 'Rookie of the Year' before the whole Joe Jonas thing, meaning she already had nailed the job) & Adaora already shot for 2013. I think Jessica & Michelle both will be back too though but we'll see, I'm pretty sure they're still going to at least two or three more locations for 2013, it's going to be their 50th Anniversary & i wouldn't be surprised if they have more models than usual

Not to argue but the news stories about Nina dating Joe Jonas happened with 7 days of voting left. The news stories started to surface around March 8, 2012 (Google it) and the voting didn't end and Nina wasn't declared Rookie Of The Year till around March 14, 2012.

Last time I checked, March 8th comes before March 14th?

Jessica Perez and Michelle Vawer were originally #1 and #2.

^No, pretty sure she got it without joes help. She was wayyyyyy in the lead before the "kinda sorta" possible dating rumor with joe jonas, which barely made a news story. She got that title because she was a standout in the rookies. Argument over.

Anywho this is michelles thread, not ninas

Agreed

I love Michelle and the intro video on her website is the sexiest swimsuit video any model has ever done.

She's sexy, creative and she isn't afraid to do artistic nudity that that makes her my all-time favorite swimsuit model.

Some models focus on things like Youtube videos or rubbing their boobs in sexual ways but Michelle isn't one of them and I absolutely adore her and her maturity. I wish more fashion models had the same kind of class that she has.

This is good Michelle Vawer discussion, thoughtful too. I will give my guess for SI 2013, I don't think so. For the very reasons described by saviorofcamelot: because she doesnt do the things that SI wants like pictures of "rubbing the boobs" and holding drinks in the cleavage. Most models will do anything to be in SI swimsuit, but I don't believe that is Michelle.

+1000000.

Thanks Resident. Those photos look awesome and she is a total beauty

Just to let you know, there is technically a little nudity in pic 4 and pic 5. Her nipples are partially visible and the mods may make you text link the photos.

Her lips...

Thanks resident for posting new pictures, she is gorgeous.

Is not new. They was made in 2010,

She's as close to perfect as any woman can get imho. At least for my personal tastes. Brunette, tall, long legs, those cute front teeth...

She's as close to perfect.

Just a brief note on the SI voting.

I was pulling for Nina pretty hard, and as a result voted quite a bit. I began to suspect that the voting was... wonky at best, rigged at worst, after some tests.

What tests? Well, I set up this automatic mouse clicking program, set it up to basically keep voting overnight for a few nights. There were literally thousands of votes cast just from this alone, and the percentages never budged once. Occasionally, Nina or Jessica would shoot to the lead only to lose it to one or the other. If there was a pattern to most of the voting at all, it would be Nina slowly building a lead and then Jessica shooting to the top again. Repeat.

Then, a week before the end of the vote, all the models ended up being very close to each other in votes out of nowhere. We're talking girls who were at 3-4% for the vast majority of the time the poll was open shooting up to within a percentage point of the leaders.

That Nina won (or, more appropriately for this thread, Michelle lost) probably had nothing to do with voting at all, and was likely predetermined. They say that when an election makes no sense - and this one made no sense at all, given the completely inconsistent and illogical patterns anyone who paid close, long term attention saw - it was probably rigged. It was rigged. And I say that as a supporter of the winner.

Oh thank you Memento Mori about your SI voting comment. I have same experience with the voting, just didn't know how to put in words like you did so well, except of course I vote all night and all day for Michelle and for the first 3 weeks her vote number % just go down down down. :persuazn: but It's OK Michelle makes us all happy with her beauty

Michelle was a close second choice for me, so it's not like I'm not a fan. Come to think of it, I wouldn't have bothered with the whole auto-clicking thing beyond the first attempt had I actually gotten results with it. I just kept doing it out of frustration when it seemed like it didn't even make a dent.

I mean, setting it up so that you can vote an unlimited number of times anonymously in the first place should have been a giveaway that something was up. If they really cared, they'd tie it to Facebook, or Twitter or w/e.
