Wild Rose Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 that was a very nice story indeed, Gisele is just amazing! Quote
michelabella Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Something that bothers me, coming here to rant lol Gisele constantly being blamed for the "oh she's famous because she dated leo" thing..... I just have a few things to say about that....Jerry Hall-Mick JaggerCindy Crawford-Richard Gere,JFK Jr,Val KilmerChristie Brinkley-Billy JoelKate Moss-Johnny DeppClaudia Schiffer-David Copperfield,Prince Albert,etc...Christy Turlington-Christian Slater,Edward BurnsNaomi Campbell-Robert De Niro,JFK jr,etc...Linda Evangelista-Bryan Adams,Kyle MacLachlanand probably many more I cant' even recall.So if models have been doing it since the 70's and probably even before, why is Gisele constantly being blamed for it ? She certainly wasn't the first as seen above, lolAll those girls above are household names, so maybe it isn't such a bad thing afterall, like so many assume it to be Quote
emmm Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 that always gets to me also, and it's not like she never made a name for herself, she has done so many things, that most models win never do!i'm sure you could ask many people that dont work in fashion, and they will all know her as gisele the model, not "leo's ex girlfriend" Quote
michelabella Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 oh how could I forget, Stephanie Seymour and Axl Rose I agree w/ you emmm Quote

Or, as always, these annoying haters just meant to say this because they are losers at some point anyway :evil: Quote
michelabella Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 yep I agree ^ ppl are bored. I guess their models don't do enough so they feel the need to have to spend their time talking about gisele???? we don't have time to talk about other models, Gisele keeps us busy! It's so fun being a Gisele fan and rarely do you ever hear gisele as, "Gisele,ex gf of Leo" its usually, "Gisele, victorias secret angel" etc... so if anything that is what most people know/remember her for Quote

teamrican1 Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 yep I agree ^ ppl are bored. I guess their models don't do enough so they feel the need to have to spend their time talking about gisele???? we don't have time to talk about other models, Gisele keeps us busy! It's so fun being a Gisele fan and rarely do you ever hear gisele as, "Gisele,ex gf of Leo" its usually, "Gisele, victorias secret angel" etc... so if anything that is what most people know/remember her for It's just a combination of selective memory and flat out ignorance. Gisele's peak as a runway model was 1999. That was the year she truly established herself as a Supermodel. She didn't start dating Leo till sometime in 2000. Prior to that, she had appeared on the covers of the November 1999, December 1999, and January 2000 of issues of Vogue- a three-peat unheard of in the modern era. And I actually take exception to the idea Victoria's Secret made her famous too. VS didn't sign Gisele to that huge contract until the very end of September 2000. Beyond the three-peat I had already mentioned, Gisele was seen on the June 2000 cover of Vogue embracing Geogre Clooney. She was on the cover of Rolling Stone (still a popular magazine back then) under the tag line "The Prettiest Girl in the World" a month before inking the VS deal. Victoria's Secret didn't make Gisele famous. Gisele made Victoria's Secret famous. She was the first (and last as it turns out) Supermodel they had ever signed to head a campaign. It was a total 180 of their previous downmarket marketing strategy and made huge news in all the business trade magazines at the time. And it turned out to be a huge success. So much so that all the models Victoria's Secret hired after Gisele became famous too, even though none of them were even remotely close to Gisele's stature as a model. Now, did dating Leo for nearly five years make Gisele more famous? Sure. Same as marrying Tom has made her more famous. But it is just as true that Gisele made Leo and Tom more famous too. Gisele and Leo were a union of two people who were already very famous in their own right and both of whom had already climbed to the pinnacle of their respective professions. There is something quite sexist about people who say "dating the worlds most famous actor was good for Gisele's image and career" but act like dating the world's most famous Supermodel didn't enhance Leo's status as a sex symbol. Both benefited by the relationship. Quote
