Since I haven't heard anything yet from a friend of mine, should I spear head this coming to USF next year?

Discuss. :D

[EDIT] I talked to Nicole about it and she says, "No. Like only 5 people would play." :(

Also, thoughts on the models chosen for the May cover of Vogue to be "Faces of the Moment":

» Liya Kebede: No
» Natalia Vodianova: Not so much anymore
» Anna Jagodzinska: Yes
» Isabeli Fontana: Yes
» Lara Stone: Eh...kinda...
» Raquel Zimmerman: She's relevant, but not as popular as she used to be
» Caroline Trentini: Love her, but her career is not as strong as it used to be
» Natasha Poly: Yes, yes, 1000 times yes
» Jourdan Dunn: Yes

I don't think A. Dubs did enough research into the strength and relevancy of these models' careers.

Some models who I, personally, think should have been considered:

» As much as I can't stand her, Karlie Kloss with her bad runway walk
» Tanya Dzhileva
» Where the hell was Lily Donaldson? (Although she may have not been considered because she was on the models cover last year. Same goes for Sasha)
» Du Juan
» Ai Tominaga (She walked the most shows out of all of the models on that cover, save for Natasha and maybe Jourdan and Anna, this past season)
» Hanne Gaby Odiele
» Iris Strubegger (Although she sometimes resembles a man, she's starting to gain a lot of popularity
» Magdalena Frackowiak (She walked just as many shows as Natasha and is starting to get a lot of print work)

I understand that the industry is going through a phase where the older models are the thing right now, but honestly? Those models, as great as they may be, aren't a great representation of who's popular right now. [/EDIT]

Um, excuse you, a million yeses to Liya Kebede and Natalia Vodianova! I kid, bb. :P But my love for the both of them is everlasting. Though yeah, they're not exactly of the moment anymore, just as a lot of that list. But I mean, I'd much rather pick up a Vogue with Liya and Natalia on the cover than one with Beyonce. :/ And ugh @ Lara Stone, I'm sorry but I just don't like her. Yes to "Where the hell is Lily?" and God DAMN Du Juan is fine.

Oh, I love both of them as well (Natalia more so than Liya), but for a issue devoted to "Models of the Moment", A. Dubs is rather behind the times. I don't like Lara either, but I'd still rather see her on the cover than Beyonce who has the same pose in EVERY SINGLE RED CARPET PICTURE. Speaking of Du Juan, have you seen the editorial she did in Harper's China for the Olympics? FIIIIEEEERCCCEEE!

Oh my God, yes x a million! SO EPIC.

Haha I do believe A. Dubs is getting senile or something, she's been off her game for a while now. Poor A. Dubs. D:

GO AWAY, BEYONCE.

I love that editorial so hardcore. :D I even made a desktop out of it! Du Juan Desktop Goodness! (http://s75.photobucket.com/albums/i297/mialopolis525/?action=view&current=desktop-hbchina.png)

I mean, A. Dubs is great and all, but the poor woman just needs to retire. :/

NO ONE LIKES YOU AND YOUR AWFUL DRESSES, BEYONCE. STOP WEARING GARETH PUGH, TOO! D:

OMG, that is epic. *Stares*

YOU ARE NOT ~EDGY, BEYONCE. PLZ CEASE AND DESIST. D:

I concur with your Beyonce statement! D:
