September 9, 200816 yr So here's a question for everyone until we get some new KK photos.....How do you see KK's career path and reputation evolving in the coming years when compared to past supermodels?In other words, do you foresee her having a life/work path similar to Elle Macpherson, Cindy Crawford, Christie Brinkley, Christy Turlington etc.? These women all vary in the type of charity work, entrepreneurial ventures, family/marriage relationships, film work, publicity and fashion work they do now that they're in their 30's and 40's. Will be interesting to see if KK decides to lay low or venture into other forays!
September 10, 200816 yr Interesting viewpoint happycanadian. She always seemed like someone who with her high energy personality and ease in interviews and as a spokesmodel to want "The Fame". I know she can't be compared to the 90's greats....it was merely a means of giving examples of what other models have done with their lives. I don't think she'll try to be the next "Heidi Klum" as well, but for some reason I do see her doing something, I just can't put my finger on what. I remember she did that t-shirt design for Colette some years back, but I don't know if design or coming out with a line like Elle is something I see her doing. To be bluntly honest, I don't see her getting much work as a real 'actress' or finding the niche that Rebecca Romijn has. Maybe she has to marry or date some famous actor to commercialize her more, but I wouldn't really like to see that. I definitely, like you, don't want her to fade away as just be a fabulous memory...for awhile, she was on quite a roll with all the VS stuff, the promos on TV shows, the charity events and awards. I don't want to speculate, but maybe VS is pushing Doutzen for a bit now, don't get me wrong Doutzen is ggggorgeussss, but I just hope KK doesn't get put on the backburner cause I adore her!I think we'll just have to wait and be surprised... : )So here's a question for everyone until we get some new KK photos.....How do you see KK's career path and reputation evolving in the coming years when compared to past supermodels?In other words, do you foresee her having a life/work path similar to Elle Macpherson, Cindy Crawford, Christie Brinkley, Christy Turlington etc.?

Will be interesting to see if KK decides to lay low or venture into other forays!Well, I personally believe that KK doesn't want "The Fame" as much as we'd all like her too, otherwise she'd be working a LOT more than she is. That being said, I think she's really trying to make a jump into the film world as an actress. She's got the role in G.I. Joe, as well as some sort of upcoming thriller she mentioned recently. She will try her wings (pardon the pun) at those ventures and see how it goes. She isn't nearly famous enough to be compared to Elle, Cindy, Christie or Christy -- these are women who were SO famous that the press still cares about their lives YEARS after they've effectively retired from modeling. Sure, KK has been a Supermodel by the standards of this era, but the times have changed. I believed for a while that she was going to become as huge and well-known as Heidi or Gisele ... but she seems content with the amount of work she does now, and surely with the $$$ she's making. Perhaps she'll kick her promotion skills into high gear for the movie work and will follow a career trajectory more akin to Rebecca Romijn. Either way, she's my favourite and I can't wait to see whatever she does next. I'll still follow her ... though the selfish part of me wants to take over managing her career and make her relevant in High Fashion once again.
September 11, 200816 yr yeah, i adore Doutzen as well... but i definitely do fear that VS is pushing her alot more than KK at the moment. perhaps to see if she can have a broader immediate appeal (*like Heidi or Tyra or Laetitia*)either way, i basically just wish that KK would do some other major campaigns. a cool fragrance ad or cosmetic or even a turn in the SI swimsuit issue. gah! plus a cover of GQ or Esquire and tons of G.I. Joe promotion -- she could become alot more famous. it wouldn't even be that difficult for her ... that's what leads me to believe that she just doesn't want that kind of fame.
September 11, 200816 yr well guys, maybe she is just takin a break she is still young! her career is not over!
September 11, 200816 yr Think thats one of the reasons why she is now a "couple" with Klitschko....just like Claudia Schiffer with David Copperfield and many more of those PR "lovers"..well lets hope she get the right publicity so she is back in the game.....the fashion world needs her gorgeous face!!!!
September 12, 200816 yr WOW! Thank you cris!I love those scans...she looks fantastic in them...her face, her figure, everything!Does anyone have them in a larger format?
