Chocolate Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Guys, have you noticed how VS won't mention Gisele at all? Couple of months ago they "forgot" she wore fantasy bra in that video about all girls who wore it. But in VSFS11 they didn't mention her once, but mentioned Heidi and Tyra And it's clear other models talked about her, like Karlie, but they cut her sentence. I don't get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelabella Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 hmm yeah its weird. Probably one of the greatest fashion mysteries of all time...lol jk but in last year's show, Erin Heatherton mentioned Gisele and they showed her in a clip of VSFS 2005...so its weird how one year they mention her and the next not. I think it has something to do with Gisele having her own Lingerie Brand now, personally. Tyra and Heidi do not have Lingerie brands. I think its just business. at least that's all I can think of because they used to always mention her, prior to this year when she launched her own lingerie line.... (I've even read on Brazilian sites that Hope is doing so good now since hiring Gisele that many American lingerie brands are interested in acquiring it).... Also Ed Razek always name drops Gisele very positively to Forbes each year about how great she is for any brand. She and Tom also stay at his penthouse suite when they go to Miami and he interviewed her for her 15th year anniversary of being a model in Vogue Brazil last year. She stated he was one of her favorite clients she ever worked for. and my mom gets Columbus Monthly magazine and Sharron Turney (where she lives in Columbus) of VS also always very positively mentions Gi...in fact she only mentioned Heidi and Gisele's names in her interview not too long ago.... So I don't think there is any problem, I just think its just business. Gisele has stated in her interviews how much love she has for VS and what it did for her career, so its not like there are any hard feelings IMO. (at least its not in Gisele's character to bad mouth others to the media even if there was some bad "blood", lol) sometimes I wish she would spill the beans. . She is too professional. For now its anyone's guess. A mystery to us all. but this is just my observatory theory through interviews and such. VS should be so lucky to have her name associated with them. On the night of VSFS twitter was bombarded with "Its not the same without Gisele" tweets even after all these years. I think its Gisele's preference tbh. She has her own branding now. She doesn't want to be labeled as "vs model". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katchitup Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 You see, my first though is that VS is probably still pissed Gisele wanted to do other things and left. But they mention Tyra and Heidi and they both left to do other things, so its odd. Like they got a beef with Gisele or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SicK As mY SecReTs Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 maybe you're right miche and it's just business VS doesn't mention her name,but imho they shouldn't have forgotten what she did for them, VS became extremely popular since late 90's and the reason of this fame are the models they worked with and Gisele Bundchen is one of the first (if not the first) names in that list. yeah after all these years,even non Gi fans miss her in VS and everyone is indentured that VS isn't VS without Gisele.I'm pretty confused why they don't want to mention her,cuz she's Gisele Bundchen and mentioning her name is free advertisement for them and for everyone it's really kinda mystery for me but no matter if they mention her name or not,all I know is that Gisele Bundchen is a huge loss of VS and not VS is Gisele's loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelabella Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 yep good points! and love your last statement. I remember when Gisele first left VS people wondered if Gisele was finally over with,... and her haters of course wished for the worst...she sure proved them wrong. If anything she got bigger and better/more work after VS. and hasn't stopped since. Also I can't picture Gisele at VS how it is today. She's too fierce on the runway she would never make clown faces/put her hands in the air acting a fool. but Gisele's presence alone is enough. She would never have to resort to silly antics.

SicK As mY SecReTs Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 yeah her career grows and grows everyday and that's so awesome,cuz most of her age models start loosing fame at this age and don't get such great contracts I just watched some vids on youtube of VS recent show again and just thought the same,can't imagine Gisele on the runway like that somehow I don't like when models act so free on the runway,always remember her in VS 2006 opening with Justin that was really unforgettable moment in Gi's runway history she's always been and still is so self-confident and powerful woman on the catwalk and just doesn't need to blow kisses in the air while rocking the runway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Yeah, good point that business thing, but like Sick said, that would be great advertaisment for them, no matter nobody forgot she was Angel and she brought Brazil to VS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennka Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Mostly, the "mysterious" mysteries and made-up (mostly by people on BZ ) issues have the easiest reasons and resolutions. And actually, I don´t really mind, I don´t think it´s THAT important. She has an amazing career and I´m glad for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelabella Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 now that's a great way to put it Jennka, well said. She has the career of careers for any model, past or present. That's all that really matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michelabella Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 another celeb mentioning Gisele Monday December 12, 11.49am: Vogue cover girl Cheryl Cole may be most women (and most men's), ideal, but she's explained how she's come to terms with the fact she'll never look quite like Gisele."We all want to look like Gisele and look good in those sparkly leggings and then we wear them and don't look good in them because that's Gisele's shape," Cole told us. "We have to accept - well I have to accept - that I'm never going to be 6'2. http://www.vogue.co.uk/news/2011/09/15/che...ion-stylistpick (seems she's talking about Gisele's British Vogue cover) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennka Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Thanks Miche for the overview - oh my, so much work!! She is phenomenal! And yeah... Gisele in leggins, that´s something to envy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelabella Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 little mention about Gisele from I&V You have a really varied crew of favorites ”Daria, Tasha, Guinevere, Kate Moss, among others. What do you respond to in all these different girls?IVL: Its all about personality. For instance, we love working with Raquel [Zimmermann] because shes someone that doesnt necessarily care whether shes beautiful in a picture. She has this incredible amount of trust and shes ready to be anything, because shes interested in the process of creating an image. VM: Gisele is the same. http://www.style.com/stylefile/2011/12/the...ez-and-vinoodh/ to me that is a great compliment for a model and maybe a big reason why some girls are more in demand than others. A girl who only cares how pretty/hot/sexy she is in a photo is not a great model, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
