Doutzen :idk: - Beautiful girl. Doesn't have the bod for VS. Sorry

Alessandra :idk: - Love ya, but it's almost 10 years. It's called branching out. Your ass isn't getting any younger, you have a baby, time to venture into new areas of your career.

Marisa (Y)

Miranda (N)

Adriana (N) - Love ya, but it's almost 10 years. It's called branching out. Your ass isn't getting any younger, you have a baby, time to venture into new areas of your career.

Rosie (Y) - Needs to pull Agent P type sex appeal out her ass and then we're good. If not, then (N)

Candice (Y) - The new "darling" of VS and this forum o.O Fresh faced, well spoken, dream girl looks, beautiful body, what's not to love?

Chanel (Y)

Emanula (N)

Lindsay (N)

Behati (Y) - Needs to stay doing PINK though

A tad excessive don't you think? Perhaps they are getting ready to drop a few of the girls? One can only hope.

quite strange opinnion Marissa is almost 10 or better years older than Allesandra ora Adriana and you have problem with that both work 10 years 4 VS, but that the 10 years older girl from 10 works 4 5 is ok <_<

i dont understand the hype over marisa but whatever..

I meant only that if for somebody the age of models is a problem, one should first delete Marissa Miller and Heidy Klum.

The good idea was to put Candice because she is really beyaty.

SHES AN ANGEl? ahhhh im sooo happy! she is amazing, yaaaaaaay!

I agree with Socio. There are too many angels now and a lot of them are way overrated. Some of them are too skinny and not lingerie sexy and some have been around long enough. VS needs a makeover.

One of the perks of being a lingerie model, says Swanepoel, is getting to try on all the different personas. After all, underwear should be whatever you want it to be. Sometimes it can be playful or kinky; sometimes it’s simply sexy.

OCEAN DRIVE: How were you discovered?

CANDICE SWANEPOEL: I was approached by an agent while shopping at a flea market in Durban, South Africa, which is where I’m from. I was 15 at the time—superthin and so insecure. When I arrived in New York, my body started to change and get a bit curvier. I’ve been in New York for two and a half years now, and things are going great.

What’s the best thing about being a Victoria’s Secret model?

Last year I got to walk in the Miami show at the Fontainebleau. I think the runway is probably the most exciting thing we do as models. The energy is amazing, and we get so much attention!

Speaking of Miami, do you have any favorite hot spots?

I just got back from Miami a few days ago. I love it: the humidity, the warm weather. The only thing that bothers me is the air conditioning—it’s everywhere! I love the way of life, and being so close to the beach. I like to shop at Atrium a lot; they have some really good beach clothes. I would love to be in Miami for the opening of the new Victoria’s Secret store this November. Any excuse to get close to the beach!

What are your Victoria’s Secret staples?

I have to say, after a whole day of shooting in a thong, it’s nice to come home and slip into a pair of their cotton underwear. It’s the best thing ever!

Which models have influenced you the most?

Kate Moss is a huge influence. There will never be another model like her. The same goes for Gisele. I love the look of the sexier, curvier model. I want us to go back to that: back to when women had bodies and boobs. In New York, it’s crazy how skinny the girls are. OD
