| hypersky | posted 8-Mar-2007 9:44pm Of course, survey creator, you know you've launched a barrage of anti supermodel tirades here. Here's my contribution:
I don't get the whole supermodel thing. These women are famous for wearing outrageously expensive clothes and walking around in them. Period. They are directed in everything that they do, they are pampered, most of them act like the future of humanity rests on their looks, and they are paid stupendous amounts to be skinny and photogenic. When they do bother speaking, most of them ruin the illusion of perfection by making comments that surpass the limits of stupidity. Their greatest contribution to society is to make every normal looking woman doubt her own attractiveness and self-esteem, and turning a whole generation of teen-aged girls into self-absorbed wannabe fashionistas. I'll just mention in passing the increase in anorexia cases as part of the supermodels' legacy. All this to say that I think supermodels should be re-assigned to professions more rightly suited to their real abilities, like, say working on a McDonald's crew, or maybe something more humble. But hey, I could be wrong... |
| romkey | posted 8-Mar-2007 9:48pm I've never really understood what was so "super" about them. |
| Amanda | posted 8-Mar-2007 10:15pm Blah. I don't have a special liking for any supermodels. |
| ausfox | (reply to hypersky) posted 8-Mar-2007 10:32pm I understand your opinion, but I wasn't looking to get into a big discussion on any of the serious issues that you bring up. It's just intended to be a light hearted survey. |
| blondie20 | posted 8-Mar-2007 10:43pm I have no opinion on supermodels. |
| hypersky | (reply to ausfox) posted 8-Mar-2007 10:44pm I didn't men to be so heavy. I've got three teen-aged daughters and I really get pissed at how much media affects their worldview. Beauty is very narrowly defined and who's in and who's out is based on extremely superficial reasoning. So I get a little miffed when these "stick figures with poofy lips" (to quote Edna Mode) get elevated to the status of societal models. My girls are media savvy enough, but they often times value appearances more than substance. They'll see the light eventually (because I bring up the issue every so often), but for now it's kinda frustrating. |
| Enigma | posted 8-Mar-2007 10:45pm I don't know most of these people without pictures. If I did I don't think I'd have a favourite anyway. They exist is all but mean nothing more to me. |
| Iseult | posted 8-Mar-2007 10:46pm I like Tyra, Claudia, Linda, and Christy. Generally I dislike models because they don't do much. |
| jettles | posted 8-Mar-2007 10:48pm my favorite of course is the "first" supermodel, gia carangi! |
| ausfox | (reply to hypersky) posted 8-Mar-2007 10:53pm Fair enough, I see your point of view. |
| JessicaWoman99 | posted 8-Mar-2007 10:55pm My favorite is Cindy Crawford and Claudi Schiffer |
| hypersky | (reply to ausfox) posted 8-Mar-2007 10:56pm That, and the couple glasses of crappy Italian wine I've have kinda fueled my rant... I should've got some Wolf Blass, dammit!!! |
| ausfox | (reply to hypersky) posted 8-Mar-2007 11:02pm Wolf Blass... are you Australian, or just like Australian wine?? |
| hypersky | (reply to ausfox) posted 8-Mar-2007 11:10pm I'm Canadian and I love Aussie wines. You guys know how to make wines that have balls. |
| RGirl | posted 8-Mar-2007 11:28pm Don't have one. In the 80s there was a woman who did L'oreal ads in Vogue who had a beautiful body and face, full figured I guess you could say and she was known for that very reason. I had her plastered all over my walls. I'm pretty sure it was Loreal. |
| ausfox | (reply to hypersky) posted 8-Mar-2007 11:43pm My husband and I love Aussie wine for that reason too, especially the reds. |
| LJD | posted 9-Mar-2007 1:54am No favorites |
| kirst | You can't go wrong with an Australian red. For whites, though, we usually drink New Zealand wines. |
| kirst | posted 9-Mar-2007 4:27am Don't really care about "super" models. |
| icurok | posted 9-Mar-2007 7:16am Having a favourite supermodel is about as worthwhile as having a favourite degenerative disease. |
| icurok | (reply to romkey) posted 9-Mar-2007 7:16am Their fees? |
| FordGuy | posted 9-Mar-2007 8:06am None. |
| llamamama | posted 9-Mar-2007 11:02am Oh man, how can I choose? |
| Galomorro | posted 9-Mar-2007 11:08am Never heard of any of them. Not a follower of models or women's fashions. |
| cloudhugger | posted 9-Mar-2007 12:23pm Gisele, by far...
but now I hear she's pregnant. |
| Jody | posted 9-Mar-2007 12:40pm I really liked Kathy Ireland and Jill Goodacre. |
| Cain | posted 9-Mar-2007 4:24pm They're all pretty ladies. I'm not overly fond of Naomi Campbell, too much of a diva. And I just don't understand what everyone see's in Kate Moss. Pretty? Yeah. Gorgeous? Not so much.
I'll say Tyra Banks , because she seems to be the most prolific at the moment - not for modelling but for all the other stuff she's doing. Oooooh to be a supermodel.................Sigh..................... |
| Cain | (reply to ausfox) posted 9-Mar-2007 4:26pm I like this survey - I knew as soon as I read the question that people wouldn't be climbing over each other to give good answers, but I could talk about supermodels all day.
Good survey!! |
| ausfox | (reply to Cain) posted 9-Mar-2007 4:50pm Well thank you! |
| Maarten | posted 9-Mar-2007 4:53pm Links would have been nice. I don't know half of them. |
| hypersky | (reply to ausfox) posted 9-Mar-2007 5:57pm Oh yeah. I love Clancy's!!!

| hypersky | (reply to kirst) posted 9-Mar-2007 5:59pm Not a big fan of whites, but I'll try out NZ wines. |
| kirst | (reply to hypersky) posted 9-Mar-2007 8:20pm The Kiwi whites are nice. If it's hot out, a white is nicer than a red at times. I don't care for sweet wine at all, but a nice Savignon Blanc hits the spot sometimes. Chardonnay is not for me. |
| hypersky | (reply to kirst) posted 10-Mar-2007 8:38am Agreed, on a hot day a chilled white does go down better than a red. Maybe I'll give the kiwi sauvignon a try then. |
| Frostbrand | posted 10-Mar-2007 11:13am The ones whose breasts are real. The rest of you, over there. |
| gambler | posted 10-Mar-2007 7:01pm Tyra, Naomi, Heidi Klum.... (Though whats with her marrying that Ugly fudgeer, Seal?) |

> her marrying that Ugly fudgeer, Seal?) He may not be much to look at but holy fudge can he sing! I am a Seal fan, and I begrudge him nothing. |
| gambler | (reply to Frostbrand) posted 11-Mar-2007 3:29pm Yes I agree too Brian, I have his 1st album with "killer" on it and I love it |
| Wackadoo | posted 12-Mar-2007 3:29pm I have no favorite. But I prefer the ones that are healthy looking. Perhaps Tyra? |
| thecomic22 | posted 12-Mar-2007 4:06pm No fave.

| mandy | posted 14-Mar-2007 3:55pm I like Tyra |
| CCsHottieMami | posted 16-Mar-2007 12:34pm Claudia Schiffer. I think she is so pretty. I used to have her exercise tapes....they were awesome! |
| Superman | posted 23-Apr-2007 1:50pm I have always liked Kathy Ireland. I find her to be extremely beautiful. |
| southernyankee | posted 27-Apr-2007 1:23am I have no opinion on supermodels, other than they're all too skinny. |
| Melf | posted 22-May-2007 4:50pm Kate Moss, she's gorgeous. |
| LindaH | posted 22-May-2007 10:48pm I have no opinion on supermodels, but I have a tiny bit of familiarity with Tyra Banks. I love what I have seen of her attitude. |
