Double Bill

Ariel's tweet:

...leads you to this shot.Glamorous models like Ariel Meredith and Michelle Vawer are not immune to duck face. What hope is there for the rest of us?

Let's cleanse the palate with duck-free images of all three ladies.

That's the Way the Rookie Crumbles 2012

Well, now is the time for me to mourn the loss of my beloved Kenza Fourati. Sadly, she was not one of last year's rookies to survive into 2012. Shannan Click has also left us, leaving Izabel Goulart, Alyssa Miller, and Kate Upton to carry us forward.By the way, both of the rookies who survived from 2010 to 2011 also came back for a third year. Say hello to the 2012 editions of Genevieve Morton and Chrissy Teigen.Chrissy had a particularly good year. Probably the best photos I've seen of her.And she got her own ad campaign for Gillette® Venus® & Olay®, in which they gave this 2010 photo the Midas treatment.

A Bikini Addict is Jonesing

A new bikini-obsessed blog called The Bikini Addict has listed its predictions for the 2012 cover.

The author's picks are Kate Upton, Chrissy Teigen, or Hilary Rhoda.

I think the smart money is on Kate, myself.But it would be churlish of me not to post photos of the other girls.
Meanwhile, it might be fun to visit The Lowdown Blog's predictions from way back on February 22, 2011. The ink was still wet on last year's issue, but they made some long-term guesses on this year's, leading with Cintia Dicker. (Personally, I would love that.)They follow up, in descending order of likelihood, with Kate Upton, Chrissy Teigen, Julie Henderson, Genevieve Morton, Anne V, and Irina Shayk.

One-Hit Wonder: Dominique Piek, 2010

Psst, Dominique…
You’re today's featured model.
Atta girl.

I suppose I’m a little ethnocentric, because I keep forgetting that other nations have their own editions of Sports Illustrated, and that those editions have their own swimsuit issues. Dominique Piek, 2010 rookie, did not come out of nowhere. She was the cover girl for SI South Africa in 2007:Bar Refaeli and Dominique’s fellow Sayth Iffrican model Genevieve Morton have also appeared.I have to say, Dominique was the most surprising 2010 rookie not to return. I don’t think she had the makings of one of the Immortals, like an Elle or a Paulina. But she could have been a good, solid, go-to presence, like a Lujan Fernandez or an Ingrid Seynhaeve.She rocked a yellow bikini, that’s for sure.

That’s the Way the Rookie Crumbles

Out of six swimsuit issue rookies in 2010, only two stuck around for 2011. Genevieve Morton and Chrissy Teigen returned this year, albeit a bit more glammed up in each case.
Genevieve Morton
Good for her! She’s a South African kewpie doll whose best pics last year were in this shiny silver bikini:…even though she cause a bit of controversy by standing near a couple swastikas in one of the shots:SI ran a series of short videos in which the models declared what they felt were their best body parts. The answers ranged from freckles (Anne V) to feet (Hilary Rhoda) to collarbones (Sonia Dara) to eyes (Cintia Dicker, Jessica White, Jessica Gomes, Esti Ginzburg).

Genevieve? “I like my boobs the best.”
Very well. I’ll allow it.

Her pics this year are a little more sultry.But she retains that “voluptuous cherub” look.

Chrissy Teigen
No surprise here. She seems to have become instant SI royalty, having found her way into the magazine thanks in part to her pal Brooklyn Decker.
She’s getting ready to say something hilarious.

Her Twitter feed is the best of all the models’; she’s genuinely funny in a snide, bitter way. Her Golden Globes commentary from earlier this year:…was almost as awesome as her golden globes:(Cheap joke, yes, but I think Chrissy would approve.)

Speaking of, when asked to name her best body part, Chrissy replied, “I like my little boobs.” Genevieve and Chrissy are the only two from 2010 to mention those particular body parts. The lesson for future rookies: talk about your boobs, and you’ll be invited back.

By the way, Chrissy in 2011 has given us yet another example of a model wearing a top but not a bottom, bringing the total to four.
