March 25, 201312 yr Today it´s too much of posts I agree with, damn, but well. I doubt Bregje. She does not seem as a good spokesmodel, but if she becomes constant VSFS walker and catalogue model (like Edita or Magdalena) I´ll be more than pleased. Btw, Lily looks way too great in her recent VS pics http://www.bellazon..../page__st__1380 Hey a girl can dream For me Bregje is one of the best things going for VS right now. She's beautiful! You took the words out of my mouth about Lily! I was just in her thread a legit said to myself damn she is stepping it up! Some of the best VS pics in years. Yeah, Lily really brings it on in her recent VS pics. So sensual. I love it. As for Bregje, this: I love it how Karlie won't be appealing for the general audience but people want Bregje to be an Angel? If anything she has less commercial appeal than Karlie, sure she has a hot body but her face isn't exactly the easiest to take, same happens with Maloes Horst. Not everyone will love a face like that whereas Karlie does have a very typically cute face. If anything I say Toni or Sara could be the next Angels, Toni has been working with VS a lot doing a little bit of everything and Sara has been doing a lot of VS work recently and she started to do Pink events too. says it all. Bregje really has an amazing body and sexy features, but her face is ... well.... "different" to say the least. We all know she looks like Sid and I can understand why people won´t like her face. I love it, but that´s just me. Plus, I don´t see her personality to be one of the kind that shines out as e.g. Karlie does. She´s not a good spokesmodel (for now at least). For me, Bregje would be a great addition to the VSFS shows and catalogues, but not really as an angel. This said, I´d say no bad word if she becomes an Angel I´m a fan, so anything that brings her press is great for me. The Ban Hammer came down this week. To the parties involved please don't think you can hide from me(us) behind proxies. Your fucks up are too great executus and I'll be watching. ---- Anywho, I rather like the idea of Cara in VS. At least she has a personality that's relatable to the core demographic they're trying to target (tweens/teens). She'd be great for PINK imo This. Cara is very appealing, she has this crazy personality I can imagine MANY Pink customers could relate with. She is crazy, free, funny, witty, plus she is a very good model with a great potential. But as was said here as well, she does not seem to work with VS much lately
March 25, 201312 yr So Barbara is shooting for Intimissimi which VS used to actually sell, but they aren't affiliated anymore, so I think VS is done with Barbara.
March 25, 201312 yr So Barbara is shooting for Intimissimi which VS used to actually sell, but they aren't affiliated anymore, so I think VS is done with Barbara. Damn. That was a short run, and we were all convinced Barbara was given as an inevitable future angel. But who knows they might still use her again ...they've done it before no? It doesn't really bother me I'm not a Palvin fan and her photos for VS weren't too stunning after her first few shoots, in my opinion
March 25, 201312 yr ^They could, I guess, but I was talking about in terms of Barbara becoming an Angel. I definitely don't see that happening now.
March 25, 201312 yr VS dropped the ball on Petra Nemcova and Josie Maran. Now they are doing that with Barbara?!Just recently I saw her behind the scenes video of the holiday commercial again and she looked so amazing wearing that garter slip. Out of all the new Angel possibilities, she is the best in my opinion. She just has a unique face that is still very beautiful and sexy like a Victoria's Secret Angel should have! And on their website she fits right in with the VS heavyweights.Maybe the customers (subconsciously) think that she looks too young or something and she isn't moving enough products?
March 25, 201312 yr Maybe VS wont make Barbara an angel cuz she's too biutiful for them & is going to outshine the other VS angel w/her biutiness. I just notice VS really don't make the most biutiful models as angel & always end up modelling for intimmissimmi or how ever u spell it. Josie MaranPetra NemcovaAna Beatriz BarrosAlyssa MillerBarbara Palvin
March 25, 201312 yr ^Yep. That's exactly it. She is far too biutiful for VS. You go, girl. You work that downgrade.

Most of the angels are almost just skin and bone.Their face might be cute, but their bodies not too feminime, some of them need a lot of photoshop.+ Imho the other "angels" might not like Barbara, because in their common works (Michael Bay videos or the bikini shooting/Maroon5 clip) Barbara clearly rule/outshine them.
March 25, 201312 yr VS dropped the ball on Petra Nemcova and Josie Maran. Now they are doing that with Barbara?!Josie didn't want to do VS (think I can count 10 images she did for them tops and that was enough). She's said working for them is about as entertaining as have a tooth pulled and would of limit her career (at the time). She was far more interested in being able to purse the modeling she wanted and so she took the Intimissimi jobs which allowed her a lot more freedom. Plus in her words "I'm not a Victoria Secret person.. l like being able to stand behind the brand I'm working for"Petra enjoyed her brief time with them, but also didn't want to be tied down to one company. SI was also sniffing around at the time and VS doesn't like to share much so honestly she made the best choice.
March 25, 201312 yr I cant believe VS left Barbara and now she is doing intimmissi...sad hope she can come back for VS
March 25, 201312 yr We don't even know if Barbara left VS, maybe her agency told her she's too young to sell her soul to the devil VS. For all we know she could still walk the show in November & eventually go back to catalogue again after her run with Intimissi is over, she's just 19. And as i said before Barbara is not Angel material right now, maybe in a couple years but as of right now I'm happy she is doing other things. As for Barbara outshining everyone, that is a matter of opinions and I'm sure there's plenty of people here who think she looks like crap in the commercial and that Candice/Lindsay/Behati/Someone else outshines everyone
March 25, 201312 yr Thank you for the info Prettyphile! Apparently, Ana BB (another gorgeous one) felt the same... Maybe VS wont make Barbara an angel cuz she's too biutiful for them & is going to outshine the other VS angel w/her biutiness. I just notice VS really don't make the most biutiful models as angel & always end up modelling for intimmissimmi or how ever u spell it. Josie Maran Petra Nemcova Ana Beatriz Barros Alyssa Miller Barbara Palvin Might be true.

I don't want to play the jealousy card but I agree that they might have felt a bit intimidated which is only human. I mean here comes a girl "out of nowhere" with a L'Oreal contract under her belt to shoot the biggest commercial of the year with them. Michel Bay and Russell James were very impressed but obviously there are other more important gatekeepers because Russell James seemed to love Brooklyn Decker and she didn't do much with Vs...
March 25, 201312 yr Intimissimi > VS IMO Intimissimi just has better pictures, better lingerie (doesn't look as cheap), awesome videos, and overall better models who've worked for them Past and Present. Shanina Shaik Ana Beatriz Barros (SI) Ginta Lapina Josie Maran (SI) Petra Nemcova (SI) (in the works) Barbara Palvin Yesica Toscanini (SI) Alyssa Miller (SI) Bianca Balti Irina S (SI) Isabeli Fontana (SI) Tanya Mityushina To name just a few (and yes I realize that most of those woman worked for VS at one point, but their pictures just didn't do it. Some of them were nice, most of them just fell flat and looked generic) Also another point Intimissimi models have a much higher chance of being able to be in SI Swim over contract VS models. Sounds like a win win to me

March 25, 201312 yr Might be true?What's really going on here is merely the case of cognitive dissonance and that's it.From a male point of view I think only 2 angels, D. Kroes and A. Lima has got the "wow" factor. The other are not ugly, maybe they has very nice face (A. Ambrosio) but if I go a popular bar/disco/plaza/high school in Hungary, or elsewhere in central-europe I find in 10 minutes a dozen girls who looks more attractive. Maybe they are not a model type, don't have the height to be a model or can't walk/act like a model did, but looks better for an avarage man than half of the angels.Barbara clearly has that wow factor and have a very kind personality + she seem smart and entertaining, and if you listen the backstage videos/read the articles, the males who works with Barbara realize that, and that's cause some other girls might be jelaus about Barbara + Barbara doesn't really fit for the VS "skin & bone" image. I also think there are a ranking between the angels, and Barbara might be don't want to be the last one in this rank (as a rookie).PS:Sorry for my english.

I thought we are over this.(well, hope dies last...at least I don't accept such arguments as valid anymore)

I thought we are over this.lol. Please save this gender ** to others, who shares that.I think the heterosexual males can make far the best judge about a womens beauty. If a high percentage of them think xy look good, she looks good.Kant said something like this:We can call a thing beauty ig it attract us without interest (I translate it from hungarian, I don't fint an english verion on thr web).An avarage male look a model without interest, just for their beauty. An average women will high probability compares herself with the model, so didn't judge her without interest.As a male I don't know why a lot's of women/girl like Johhny Depp, di Caprio, Bieber or that Twighlight guy, and why not the Klitschkos or Swarzenegger in 90's while I'm rather looks like them then the earlier mentioned girl's favouriites.

If most of them think xy look good, she looks good.Well, I know that being proud of ignorance is one of the core issues of the western society.So, merely heterosexual males can have an opinion about the appearance of a woman?What makes their opinion better than the opinion of others?And what about lesbians? Or Bisexuals?And "most of them"? So you asked ~ 3,5 billion males on this earth what they think about Barbara and the other angels?(oh wait, first we have to subtract all homo-; bi- and asexual males because we all know that their opinion is inferior to those of heterosexual males)Or isn't it more likeable that "most of them" is simply your subjective and limited perception?
