I think the point is that she didn't seem beaten up over what happened with Emir and in comparison to how she responds to most of her break ups, it seemed pretty inconsequential. She didn't seem to care. 

 

Regardless of the way she perceived any of them though she seems to be in a good mental space and is back to showing her personality to the world. Good energy into the new year. 

This i can agree with. She seems to not be bothered by it and like she’s doing good.

I think the Egypt picture is new. Adriana usually posts new stories in real time unless its a repost. Or she’s mentioned if it was from the day before. Also, she hasn’t  been posting on stories and didn’t even post from her last event. She seems like she’s been busy there. Plus she posted it in what would have been 3/4 AM in Miami, so I don’t think she’s in the states.

Idk what the deal is with Matt Higgins. But she met with him last year and then this year posted a pic from last year with him giving him a shoutout for being her business partner. No clue what that’s about or what they’ve done together in the last year. But they didn’t meet in September when she posted that picture on stories. It was old. I believe he posted it the day she became a US citizen to congratulate her.

I thought she could be considering acting when she signed to CAA. I remember her showing us her script a few months ago from that show she did an episode for with the Fantasy bra. So maybe it is on her mind. Honestly tho I’m not sure how well that would go. Models are usually hired for acting roles to play the hot girl with 2 lines lol. And especially her having her accent, I’m not sure she’d be one to get big roles.

Yeah you're right I just saw her recent stories and she is in Cairo. Really curious what work she's there for and can't wait to see it. 

I didn't know that Higgins photo was from last year! I feel like a lot of the business meetings adriana does give her a lot of energy in the short term, but I don't think we've really seen anything come from them so far. Other than maybe the reality show she did? I think with the whole acting thing she seems to work on her English skills on and off. Then again maybe she consistently works on improving but doesn't post about it all the time. I don't know how much better she has gotten with sentence structure and pronunciation. I think at this point if she were to start acting closer to age 40, it would be pretty tough to build her skills and find her way into a serious role. Thankfully she still looks amazing so maybe for the more frivolous roles if she's up for them -- that kind of thing could be good for her. I think she likes the idea of  being a bond girl. She may have even posted about it once. With the new bond films featuring Daniel Craig, I think they have about 2-3 women in the movie? All of them play bond-esque girls even if there may be one main one. I think adriana could get one of the smaller roles in bond. It would be good for her too because those movies are usually big and watched by many. 

Do you guys think adriana posts these herself or that her team does? I am pretty sure adriana does but I want to believe it's not her and that it's her team because they are so so corny and they really do make me cringe. 

Girl!!! You are almost 40 😅😭😭😭 please stop!!! This is the kind of thing that I would expect like a 15 year old white girl from a middle class suburb in Michigan to have in her instagram bio. I can't. 

I'am curious about what she is doing in Cairo..but she never talks about what work she's doing

@fieldofoptics def Adriana posted that

@fieldofoptics @Sophie20 The ig story you are talking about is a repost from a friend, she posted about her before (sadly because she is one of those spiritual/medium/whatever she should stay away from as much as possible).

@fieldofoptics  I don’t think Adriana even has a social media team. They would post more if she did. Like she did a horrible job promoting her Puma collection. She didn’t even do a swipe up and only one picture of it was posted on feed. Lol I remember Daniella the hairstylist did a better job promoting it for Adriana. She also didn’t post about her last event. And let’s not forget when she fell for that old FB hoax on ig lollll. Cringy. I’ve said this so many times that she needs a social media team. 

Andrea also reposted that quote too before her lol.

Also a correction to something I said earlier, Adriana did post that she was at a business meeting in Miami on her stories around September. We never saw with who tho. But the Higgins picture she reposted on stories was old. He shared it to congratulate her. So it looks like they’ve been working together for a bit over a year now. For what? No clue what his role is.

@Sophie20 Yeah I hate she never shows us behind the scenes. Only Maybelline if we are lucky. But I think it’s cause she’s said she’s superstitious and doesn’t like to show us/tell us about things until they are done. And i guess she likes the surprise factor. I also hate how sometimes she’s showing us everything and then sometimes nothing of what she’s doing/where she is.

Exacty @lucyford.. que shows she is there but nothing more.. well we need tô wait so...

I don't know anything about him other than that he dated Taylor swift 🤮

But he looks good next to adriana, maybe it's just the height. Not advocating anything but just saying. 

He’s there with his gf. So nothing between him and Adriana. They prob just ran into each other and she asked for a pic or the Egyptian tour guides did to post about it. 

Debbie posted this yesterday. Has this been posted under Candids before? I don’t remember seeing it.

Just saw some articles from Adriana's collection with Puma are sold out on the website ! 

@EsraLima I saw the beanies were sold out on the Puma US page within like a week of the launch. Her stuff seems to be doing good but it needed better promotion. A majority of the overpriced Balmain products sold out the day of the launch. Wish they would’ve put more effort in promoting ALxPuma. It’s funny to me Adriana helped promote a collab Shanina did on her stories during the summer. Yet she doesn’t ask Shanina to return the favor when she has something? She didn’t even send her collection to other models or celeb friends to promote on ig. Pretty sure Puma sent it to Josephine the other day not Adriana.

Lol what is your sign, you're so pessimistic majority of the time. "Adriana's material is still selling out and started selling out within the first week of it being launched" "but Another powerhouse hf brand's material sold out on the first day". Doesn't make Adriana's obvious accomplishment less, especially since Adriana is not a powerhouse fashion brand like Balmain, who cares if it sales out quicker just by a few days. They have an entire history of doing collabs and being a fashion brand in general. This is Adriana's first time doing something like this and what happened with it is remarkable. Not worth talking about what anybody else has going on.

That being said, this is why I now hate coming in here. People focus on so much negative, even when there is something worth celebrating, shooting it down with bad comparisons

@Souled-Out  I wasn’t being a pessimist. I said her collection seems to have done fine. I said some of her stuff sold out within the week as being a good sign. I brought up the Balmain collab to say how they promoted it so much and teased it like a month before the launch. Was just saying I wish Puma would have done better at promoting Adriana’s collab cause obviously that makes a differenece. Which I don’t think you or anyone here could really disagree that her collab wasn’t promoted the best. 

Saw this and couldn’t not share it. If the translation and news is correct, looks like Metin got exposed for being a fraud.
