i think the bodypaint shoot is over and MJ is back home..or maybe i'm wrong

It's not uncommon to go on vacation during Thanksgiving. God knows both her sister and mother could use a little R -n- R

 

if she was shooting she can't say the location..but i don't think they are shooting anyway

Yes, but she already deleted the snap she sent out, both of them. Were they un that location doing the body painting

 

BP has been over a couple days now. The staff didn't want to be away from their friends and family for Turkey Day.

but you know if they will shoot for body paint again? we only saw 2 models from this shoot

They're purposefully holding back posting teaser pictures from now on. It's easy for people to figure out who the models are and the staff doesn't like that. Haven't you noticed MJ's videos have also stopped being posted?

 

:yuckky: ^^ Limer's post

 

I'm not a fan of them, but I do respect them.  They eat bugs that I hate more than spiders. 

Also Stormy, I know you LOVE spiders.

 

And this thread is full of innuendo due to women (and occasionally limes) in bikini's

 

So why not mix them together?

You're welcome.

If they didn't post teasers.

 

Or posted Kat pictures (or spiders) we wouldn't figure it out as easy :Dinah:

 

Or do what women do when I ask for a pretty picture and send a picture of them fully clothed with a mask on

Can't imagine why they care that an enthusiast board is ahead of the curve, almost none of their future customers has the slightest clue some message board identified everyone in advance.

Future customer as long as Jessica Gomes is there

 

I'm also a little confused about their desire to keep everything so hush during production? Maybe it's just because as long as I've been interested in the modeling industry and SI Swimsuit I've been on here so nothing about the magazine has ever been a surprise to me, but I never felt the magazine gained anything from everything being so secretive leading up to release. Like do people care about being surprised who the models are who end up being in the magazine? Does the suspense actually add to the hype at all? I really don't feel like it does.

 

Could someone who knows more try to explain the logic to me?

^^

Time Warner = Serious Fuck nuts

A potential loss of revenue from CBS/Media Outlets

 

Did I mention Time Warner is in need of a enema?

Your point about their irrationality is taken, I just don't understand how exactly even perfect knowledge by the entire world of who is going to be in the magazine would negatively impact their revenue. They need to relax. They're managing a special issue of a magazine with pictures of women in bikinis, not state or even trade secrets. I can understand hiding the cover, for their talk show reveal tie-ins. Beyond that? The secrecy, combined with how needlessly they manipulate the entire Rookie voting process, gives me the impression there are producers in charge with delusions of grandeur. But that's just my read, I don't know any of these people.

Most people I know don't have the slightest clue who most (if not all) of these models even are. Indeed, this is anecdotal but, the consensus among my friends--and indeed most people I follow on social media--is that SI's swimsuit issue is a bemusing relic of pre-internet pornography that is content-equivalent to Maxim, only with insufferable levels of pretension and baffling media relevance. Clearly I'm in this thread so that's not my view, but I can't imagine any of those people (nor indeed the Chive-like bro-sites that repost all the eventual images) give a shit about what SI's up to months in advance of release.

 

So... who is their hype/pre-release media strategy actually for?

^Wow, perfectly articulated.
