Victoria's Secret (VS) vs (SI) Sports Illustrated

 

 

Emily is a professional model while Laetitia is more like an actress with occasional modelling duties. Naturally, that favors Emily

I thought we were talking all time, not just the last couple of years.

 

 

We have many younger members who may not recall or even know about Laetitia at the height of her career. So they have to base their votes on what they know and likability instead of brand compatibility.

 

Here is Yves Saint Laurent almost gushingly talking about her.

Starts at around the 24 second mark.

I can understand that people do not vote for Laetitia because they don't like her or do not get her or do not know her or think that Emily is sexier (lol) or more iconic (lol²) for SI but...

What???

Laetitia is STILL a professional thank you very much

&

when she was posing for SI she was at the top of her game as a professional model & also one of the most famous model of her time

so

I don't mind reading negative things about Laetitia because I am the first one to criticize her but what you said is simply ridiculous.

St Laurent was in love with her. He told her once.

Even if I hate her new hair cut, her face is still flawless :wub2:

^^ I admire Laetitia very much and  dont understand in what context my comment came across as negative. Was merely expressing ambivalence if she's a model or an actress. Turns out I wasnt very well informed about her career. TBH I was  not old enough during the peak of her modelling days. My apologies

If you remember the peak of her modeling career, you realize she was the rare kind of model that transcended the business and became a cultural icon.

She is perhaps one of the very last ones for which this is true.

Yet at the same time, she was very much part of the industry.

That's ok She is both a fashion model & actress now.

By this sentence, are you saying I am old?? :knives:

ROUND 8 CLOSED

COUNTING VOTES

The winners are:

Victoria's Secret
GISELE BUNDCHEN (25)
Marisa Miller (7)

Sports Illustrated
TYRA BANKS (22)
Nina Agdal (10)

This means that Gisele and Tyra will go on to the next part of the competition. Sadly Marisa and Nina have been eliminated from the competition.

Once I'm at home I'll start on the next part of the comp.

Here are the rankings after the second part of the competition. We are now on to the third part of this competition.

The next rounds are back to scores based. This time with a little bit extra. Each girl will have a score out of 10 for Face, Body and Personality.

These girls are the best of the best for VS and SI so they are meant to be there. The brand saw something in them and so do we. So let's give scores appropriate. I understand not liking someone but think about it a bit more fairly. 0 isn't an appropriate vote. Personality is about who they are but also factor in how well they fit the brand. And score there face and body according to what you think.

ROUND 1

• Give the girl a score out of 10 for each category. Face, Body and Personality.
• Each round will feature two girls. After the rounds are complete the scores will be counted and the overall score is to see who will be at the top, and who won't. Just like the first part of the competition. This isn't an automatic loser if one girls scores are lower. It comes down to rankings.
