February 4, 201510 yr Hannah, Lily and Chrissy locations are not on the beach/sea so i don't think they have a chance
February 4, 201510 yr Learn to read people. It says 'ad' in the first paragraph.lol i know is ad but why that girl? i still dont get itÂ
February 4, 201510 yr Because a swimsuit brand is paying for ad space in a swimsuit magazine? Why is that so groundbreaking? They've got a "plus sized" model in the issue with Robyn, although I'm using the term plus sized lightly there.
February 4, 201510 yr Boy did Chrissy really bag the cover?    I hope they double-bagged in that case!
February 4, 201510 yr there is thousands of brands but well... btw emrata is british!!! she said that in her SI vid last year not american
February 4, 201510 yr ^^^ That's why I'm so confused about all this publicity surrounding the ad, too. Every headline I see says "First Plus Size Model to be Featured in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition", but she's being featured in an ad in the magazine. It's really not super ground breaking on SI's part considering I don't think they really have much or possibly even anything to do with it and I'm fairly certain this isn't the first swimsuit ad to feature a plus size model in general. I think a lot of people are just taking the story out of context and making it a bigger deal than it really is. Also, while I agree that women of all shapes, sizes, colors, etcs. should be appreciated, a lot of the articles I read are twisting this into the "real women have curves" battle, which is something I just don't agree with in general.
February 4, 201510 yr @MarsVS She was born in the UK. However, her parents are American, she was raised in California, hell she doesn't even have British accent because she has lived in in the US sincce she was five And Ashley's ad is just an ad, nothing else. She won't be featured in the magazine and most likely her name won't be there at all.
February 4, 201510 yr I posted the ad a few pages back. It's not that bad. The ad itself is very nice and Ashley looks wonderful. Like I said, I feel like the media frenzy is just taken out of context.

She comes from Polish and Irish according to Wiki but both her parents are Americans and so is she, maybe she has dual citizenship but girlfriend is American.
February 4, 201510 yr America is a melting pot, so there are all kinds of wacky surnames here. Mine comes from Luxembourg. Doesn't mean I myself can claim to be from there. XD
February 4, 201510 yr ^ You totally can hun, It was once said here that all South Americans come from Spanish family, therefore we're all a little bit Spanish. So I guess you are indeed a little bit from Luxembourg. #BZWisdom
February 4, 201510 yr Little bit, sure. So I could say I can descend from there, but I'd never say I'm from there. Especially since I've never actually been there myself. xD And likewise it's fair to say Emily descends from Polish stock but I'd never say she was Polish, I'd say American. Or maybe British American. Whatev. #BZIsBetterThanFortuneCookies

Take Gigi, she has a Middle Eastern surname ( Lebanese father) Would you say she too is not American?
