Any celeb that everyone says is hot but who you think is unattractive

The idea behind putting especially attractive models in catalogs is to tempt a woman (or the woman's boyfriend!) to purchase what she's wearing. When I browse through catalogs I see Ana or Adriana's gorgeous face and sleek tan body in a beautiful setting I pause and check out what she's wearing and often find myself wanting to purchase the lingerie/swimwear/clothing. Like the one woman who worked for Victoria's Secret said on the VH1 AAA Special, a girl who sees sexy Adriana in that huge gorgeous mansion in the VS commercial is apt to want to buy Adriana's lingerie.

Which is why I don't understand the purpose of having Marisa Miller in VS! She has some sort of appeal to men that most straight women would just not perceive as being attractive. Like many people have said, her face....is lacking (to put it nicely), although she has an outstanding body. I browsed through the VS swimwear preview and had to leave I was so turned off..

She looks like Jeff Goldblum, and thats an insult to Goldblum. :/

She has a very manly facial structure as well. Her jawline is way too squared and wide, which looks masculine.

Thats what I got from those two pictures.

And all of you Marisa fans who will no doubt attempt to defend her and get abusive, Hold your tongues. :evil:

I didn't like marisa's face when i first saw her, but I was also like that with gisele, but they both have now become favorites of mine. I know alot of people love ana B. but personally I don't find her attractive at all, I like some pics I see of her but that's rare. I also am completely sick of seeing ashley simpson, I don't like anything about her.

She doesn't look like another model clone. Most of the models in VS are runway models and for this man, runway models are not very attractive looking women. Runway models are used to sell clothing to women and are apparently attractive to women. In VS all the dark, Brazilian women make me just thumb through and not really pause to look. Marisa, who epitomizes the girl next door, athletic look, causes me to stop and look at what she is wearing.

You might notice she is a very popular Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model. SI's models don't look much like runway and high fashion models. If they did I don't think SI would be as popular. The best models I've ever seen are from SI. You might notice that the girl next door look usually wins out in their new swimsuit model search.

I will never understand some women's view that runway models are attractive. If women think they are going to attract men by looking that way in my opinion they are not going to be successful. Women will probably never understand why men find Marisa Miller, Elle McPherson, Rachael Hunter, Cheryl Tiegs, and others attractive.

expert you forgot to mention that along with runway the brazillians also do TONS of editorial work around the world and they are actually included in the vs runway show unlike the 5'6 marissa. she doesn't do runway not because she's so goddamn beautiful(which IN MY OPINION she is not) it's because she doesn't have "the look" and because she 's short.

I get what you're saying expert. Most SI models are not attractive to me because I don't think their faces are particularly beautiful (with the exception of Josie and Laetitia) but they have something that appeals to men's taste rather than women's.

I tend to look at the face right away, not the body. But for an industry like Victoria's Secret that sells products to an audience dominated by women, Marisa is not an ideal choice. I haven't heard one woman say she thinks Marisa is attractive..but I suppose there are some out there.

To each their own! But I really miss Adriana :cry:

Once this thread goes on long enogh we will see that every celebrity and model is overrated. Ask enough people and that is what will result. I did not try to say that runway models and Brazilian models are not pretty, are too short, or smoke too much. I was sharing my opinion that I do not prefer them and was answering a comment which asked the question "I don't see why anyone would find Marisa attractive". She gets me to stop thumbing through the pages of my wife's VS cataglog and the runway/Latin models do not.

By stating what my preferences and attractions are, along with the reasons for them, I am not telling anyone else that they are wrong. There is no reason to become defensive and no reason to be sarcastic.

I also wonder what "the look" is and who decided what it will be. On this site and on the former ChilaX site it seems to be the Latin and eastern European "look". There are some very attractive people in these catagories. When I was in high school I found myself not really following convention and doing something because it was popular and what everyone else was doing. The latter is the behavior of lemmings. As I have gotten older I feel more strongly about this.

I remember when Elle MacPherson was appearing more often then she is now and was criticized for being too tall. What is it we want, tallness or shortness? Who decides what the "proper" height is?

Another thing I've been observing on this site and with people expressing themselves in other venues is the tendancy to say "they hate" or "can't stand" a particular person or idea. Hitler hated people and showed us with actions that he hated. I don't think the dislkes of people for a model, a celebrity, a book, a movie, a TV show, a food, a car, etc. can actaually be as strong as the word hate. Like much of the language being used today, especially the F word, it is full of "meaningless intensives."

I haven't found anyone yet who makes my stomach turn when I look at them, except for the dead bodies of victims of trauma I dealt with on the job. In those cases the necessary behavior of "detachment" is one I adopted in order to do my job correctly as an emergency responder. To say that someone's looks turns stomachs does not dignify individual people as they deserve. It may indicate the emphasis on physical beauty, at the expense of character, that is becoming more prevelant the longer the technology of TV exists. We are voting based on how a candidate "warms up to the camera" more than we are on what they say.

Marisa is athletic and grew up surfing in a part of the world I'm familiar with. She sees modeling as temporary and not the focus of her life. The Perfect 10 video and pictures are her first modeling work. I like the stills of her lying in the bed, but don't like the video as some of it wasn't in the best taste. She would probably agree with that. To call it pornographic is an exaggeration. I think with enough research, we could find work done by many other models which is not real tasteful. I find the pictures of many of the Brazilian models smoking in very poor taste. The message to me is, "I don't really care about all the evidence that smoking is extremely bad for my health and is dangerous for the health of the non-smokers around me, but again I don't really care as I want to follow the crowd and be cool." Of course there are more than Brazilian models and celebrities who appear very unattractive when they smoke.

All models and celebrities put themselves forward in ways that a great number of people won't. I think most of them deserve some respect for doing that in businesses that are very tough and cruel at times. I don't think we need to be so cruel to them also. It is often said that if you stand up, you will get hit. For much of the population that discourages people from saying what is on their mind or to be assertive when it comes to actions. I suspect that some folks will "hit me" for what I've said here, rather than just respectively disagree.

I enjoy hearing about models live's and it gives the pictures more meaning to me. I really enjoyed the "Girls of ChilaX" where you could look at member's own pictures and communicate with them. Sad that these member's really have to be so careful in posting things about themselves.

I find this picture of Marisa very attractive and if anyone things she looks masculine then they just don't see the same things I do. Nothing wrong with that, to each his own.

Breast size is not all that important to me when looking at Marisa. It is the fact that she is athletic and has a large bust that I find attractive. The average athletic woman is usually very small. There is nothing wrong with that either, I have known many women who are athletic and small figured but have great personal qualities and other features making them very attractive. Part of why I find Marisa attractive is this "not the usual" look of an athlete.
