October 11, 201410 yr Sophia finally giving Behati some love. Pretty sure Adriana, Gisele, Izabel and Ale weren't the best English speakers too when they became Angels I think Lais' problem is that she just comes across as too quiet. Then again half the Angels and regular models used, pretty much suck at talking themselves, and many are native English speakers. I have never heard Lais speak, so I dont know how "bad" her English is, but Adriana's hasn't improved for like 15 years! She still has the thickest accent and constantly makes mistakes while speaking/posting online. Ale's on the other hand, is way too funny, she is trying way to hard, I can't stand her speaking. In fact, most foreign Angels are quite bad doing interviews, but i guess it is all about the personality you are showing through your interviews. Doutzen speaks pretty good in terms of grammar but the way she speaks: gentle, soft, shy, it's like the biggest adventure of her day is to give an interview. I liked best Marisa and Heidi as spokespersons, their personalities were just outshining everything they were saying. Same goes with Gisele, despite her accent too. Candice can be very picky/lazy, same for Miranda. They are just trying way too hard to sound knowledgeable. Here's her speaking English Brazilians do have strong accents so it would take a very long time to get rid of them, but considering they have family which I assume they speak Portuguese to, it's not like they want to get rid of it. Doutzen, Gisele and Karolina I think are very good at doing the interviews, but it's definitely not in Doutzen's persona to be a loud one, I think it's not uncommon for Dutch people to have very soft voices when doing things in English, even with Dutch males, they still have relatively soft and sweet English voices. I also think Tyra's personality shone through, as well as Rosie's. Candice sounds really uninterested in what she's selling (I kind of think her voice is somewhat too screechy at points), and Miranda goes off topic too much for VS events, if you took a shot every time she talked about herself or KORA you're guaranteed to get hammered by the end of it (Y)
October 11, 201410 yr I don't think her accent is bad at all. I understood what she said. She is so sweet, I like it :wub2:
October 11, 201410 yr I think it is more of her shy and reserved personality than her language skills that is hindering her from becoming an Angel. I think she sounds fine and I could understand her. I could understand her better than when Adriana first started out.
October 11, 201410 yr Author Lais is beautiful and doesn't sound bad at all but she doesn't stand out enough. She won't become a big angel but she's still a go to girl for VS and has lasted longer than a lot of the other girls they've tried out and failed with. So they like her. Really though VS haven't made a new angel in a while now. Karlie was the last one and it doesn't seem like they're too keen on contracting another girl any time soon. We always say Lindsay and Ale are on the way out and then they're still around. So who the hell knows what VS are doing.
October 11, 201410 yr VS needs models like Daniela Lopez Osorio, Sandra Kubicka, Solveig Mork, Yara Khmidan, Michelle Vawer. I don't understan why vs won't hire models like this type of girls. they're commercial looking. VS is a commercial brand not a high fashion brand So I don't understand why they hire high fashion girls to be in their show or model for the their catalogs. yes the only vs angels I like is Doutzen & Lily & that is it. the rest angels are just boring.
October 11, 201410 yr Lais is a pretty girl and all and has her moments but I just can't see her being a full fledge angel.
October 11, 201410 yr + I could understand what Lais is saying her accent is not that bad. is actually cute. i don't think VS has a problem with her accent. VS didn't had a problem w/ dri & ale english accent, so I pretty sure they don't have it with Lais. it must be some othet reason why VS doesn't wanna give her a contract.
October 12, 201410 yr Awww Lais! such cute accent. Thanks for providing this video, it is the first time I heard her speak and I think she sounds good. I understand her perfectly, she's got an accent but it's cute, it is not annoying like Lima's. The girl is just shy. But she is beautiful regardless. I like her but I don't think she has what it takes to be an angel. edit; Oh, and yes, agree about Miranda and Candice.
October 12, 201410 yr Shanina Shaik should be their new angel. She's always well spoken with the right amount of humor. And that Aussie accent is so sexy!
October 12, 201410 yr I think she's very sweet, but for me, Cameron Russell speaks so well and she's so intelligent (did you guys see her TED talk?) that if I was a brand, I'd like to have her representing me, opposed to the latvian model that was in this video, for ex.

They're like the girl from school who tried to be in the popular crowd but didn't quite get there. Also Shanina > Life. I still don't get why they didn't book her last year. Hopefully they will this year.
October 13, 201410 yr ^ But Laetitia is Laetitia... The bombshell, the world known sex kitten (not to mention an national treasure). Casta was the Monica Bellucci of France in terms of her beauty and everyone knew it. She was the Gen X of models - almost a 90's supermodel, but the title sadly was out of her reach (if she'd just been born a couple years earlier). Lais on the other hand another pretty faceless model from Brazil who has zero hype surrounding her. She's lacking that instant presence and appeal that Tyra, Gisele and Heidi had, and she sure as hell doesn't scream unreal beauty of Casta and Lima. I can only agree with that! And I honestly have no idea who Lais is!
