FOLLOW THESE WOMEN ON TWITTER --
I don't have the accounts of all of the women in this contest either because she doesn't have one or because the last time the girl tweeted something, it was a long time ago. Nonetheless, as this is about the experience with our famous women, let's get to know what their daily errands are and what's currently running through their minds.
The National Fashionistas has done it again. For the second year in a row, I have picked a SuperModel who came from obscurity in the foot fetish world and have turned her into a Sports Illustrated swimsuit covergirl.
Last year I selected Irina Shayk to be one of the my Fashionistas to show us how graceful and potent sex appeal can be when it's on display perfectly. It was on this week last year that Irina came in to Week 2 0-1, facing Joanna Krupa. When it was announced that Irina was the first Russian-born model to grace the cover of that magazine, that turned her momentum around in the match and that one special moment in her life also saved her entire season. Without Sports Illustrated popularizing her, I fear that her year would be done before it got started because of how well unknown she was.
This year, the fortunes lie ahead for Kate Upton. Gracing the cover of that magazine catapults careers and makes these women become household names. It is in those moments that lives change for the better, a moment that will live engraved in their memories until the final days of their lives.
While winning Maxim's or FHM's Sexiest Woman in the World contest is also an exciting moment, the faces to the reaction these women have upon finding out they've been unveiled as the newest covergirl of Sports Illustrated is more magical and special that that reward deserves to be placed in a hall of its own.
Being the Sexiest Woman in the world is a part of life for many of these women. But for the likes of Kate Upton, being placed on a cover of a coveted tradition, life has only begun.
Congratulations, Kate Upton!
You have made the National Fashionistas, and myself, very proud of you. You will forever be a part of the family.
You always do a great job organizing this thing all together. You have taken what is normally just a bland discussion on celebrity feet into a great game that gets people involved. The video clips you show makes it the most entertaining thing in this whole forum. It's very entertaining.
A few things. Is that a great way to kick off this week or what?! That's the first I've ever seen that clip from Eva Mendes. It was like she was getting ready to have her match against Miller this week. And she needs it because she needs to be on all cylinders to beat someone like Marisa who's feet are nothing short of spectacular. But I went with Eva because her feet in that clip was just mouth watering Way to go, Eva!
There are many great matches this week that I'll touch on at another time. But before I leave, let me just congratulate Kate Upton as well. I'M reading the tweets from her account giving us the craziness that's been going on in her life since that announcement was made.
National, you're two for two when it comes to this. This might be the start of a new tradition in this contest. A tradition that only this contest can lay claim to. A new tradition in where you pick a super model that no one has ever heard of and have that girl then appear on the cover of sports illustrated.
Like you said, it has worked for Irina. I think Kate has a bright future ahead of her and it'll be interesting to see how she does the rest of the way through the contest.
My my! She's in a division with Mila Kunis and Tisdale. Kate is definitely a dark horse. That should be Mila's first sign that things won't come that easy for her this year.
Thanks for the article and clip from Letterman. It was cool seeing Irina in there, too.
How in the world do you do this, National? How do you know so much about these unknown models who then turn out to be big stars? It's like you see all of this coming way before we do.

You must have at least a couple of hundred pictures of all the women this week. What I like about this contest is that National oversluts the market by flooding us with what seems like an unlimited supply of images from these women.
Joanna looks as lovely as ever. This is true dream match up for anyone who likes the two women. This is Kim's true test to see if she's for real this year. I know that Joanna is.
I feel that Mendes has an edge over Marisa this week, especially after watching that clip of Eva's delicious feet taking a bubble bath. Love it how the guy is trying to rush her. Bitch, that's Eva Mendes! Let her have her time.
I went with Irina this week. Hot pictures that makes you look at her entire body, and then her feet, then her body, then her feet......
Speaking of drooling, Stacy Keibler and Audrina Patridge are off to fast starts with their pictures. Both are against quality opponents with quality feet. I think Stacy will be able to pull this one off, but I won't be surprised if she loses. Audrina will be in BIG trouble if she loses this week to start 0-2. Candice Swanepoel last week, now Megan Fox this week? My Goodness, Audrina cannot catch a break here! I'll bet that next week she'll be up against Rosie. Maybe National doesn't like her.
.....I'm only kidding of course.
Speaking of Rosie, I think I just pulled a hamstring while jacking off to her pictures .......

Thanks for pointing that out. It wasn't until I read that when I realized that that couldn't have been right. I don't remember how I got that number for her. Must've been some big typo.
There is another woman on that list whose shoe size I question, but nothing else on that list seems out of place.
I adjusted the list to make Kim a size 7.
Posted by foot_fashion_industry (Member # 33265) on :
The first match of the week is not that interesting to me because I think Lea Michelle is going to be one of those girls who will wind up at the bottom of her division. I think it the race in Division 1 will go down Jessica Alba and Olivia Wilde once again.
I voted for Longoria over Gomez, Rosie over Nicole, and Kerr over Wilde, although that match can clearly go either way. I'll be disappointed if Wilde wins, but it wouldn't surprise me.
Krupa and Kim is an interesting match, one that I will watch closely. If Kim can win this match, that will show the world that she's back on a vengeance after a disappointing season last year. If Joanna wins, then we question about just how much of a factor Kim will be this year.
I like Munn, but I like Keibler's feet a lot better. This is another good match that can go either way. Not only do I feel that Stacy's feet are superior to Munn's, but the fact that she's with Clooney will definitely make her more of a threat than she was last year.
I'm compelled to buy the swimsuit issue. Kate is my new favorite girl in the NFC this year, and I'm willing to go as far as to say that she'll make it to the finals this year. She should beat Underwood by 20 or something.
I got Emmanuelle over Nikki, Mila over Lucy Hale, and Aniston over McCord. I've got Kournikova over Justice and Candice over Tisdale. I think all the magic and hysteria that surrounded Tisdale last year has worn off. Her fifteen minutes of fame are up. Candice will show her a thing or two.
I've got Katy Perry over Irina, Mendes over Miller, and Audrina over Fox.
Let me say something about Megan, which will be the same argument I'm going to make about Carmen. Their days of dominance are DONE. No more do we see Carmen destroying her opponents like she did back in the days. She's doesn't have that same presence anymore. Neither does Megan. Their intimidation and invincibility are gone.
It's like Tiger Woods when he was in his prime. Back then, no one wanted any part of him. Now, no one is scared of him. Same thing with Megan.
Victoria almost got the best of her last week. The top girls in this contest can get to her and the middle weights of this contest know they have a shot against her too. It's hard to believe that she can go undefeated against her own division.
I'm not saying she won't make the playoffs because I feel that she will have no more than four losses this season. But I'm saying she doesn't have what it takes to win it all again. Audrina is going to BEAT Megan, especially when it's almost impossible to beleive that Audrina will start any season 0-2.
Posted by DSW (Member # 35008) on :
There's NO WAY I'm voting for Lucy Hale over Mila Kunis. Mila for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a midnight snack!
Her pictures gets us up close and personal with her feet. Just look at her! This Kate Upton thing has made that division THAT much more interesting because Mila might have company. That picture of Jennifer Aniston that appeared in GQ magazine will help spark a plug in to her season. That picture of Aniston will be a classic without any question. If that's the image the voters in here have of her, Mila will have to keep Aniston in her rear view mirror. Then there's Tisdale. If she beats Candice this week, then the world will be beside themselves!
Last week, National talked about the three power divisions. I think you might want to add a fourth one if things end up the way I described by the time the poll closes.
Good thing that clip of Mila exists because those pictures and that clip helps keep her in the conversation. Its clips like that that make me want to become a cop. I'll be more than happy to sexually harass Mila Kunis if she talked that to me. Sexually harass her feet. Mila knows how to work the male testosterone.

Good questions. This guy knows what he's doing. I would've never come up with her if I were running this contest. When I saw Irina's name to start last year's contest, I thought nothing of it. Then look what happened. This year with Kate, I didn't think much of anything about her. And now she's set to do big things.
National know how to scout these girls real well, and he should be greatly credited for being on the lookout for the girls who are not known and making something out of them.

Thanks for the nice words. It truly shows that the work I put forth into organizing this competition has really paid off and the feedback I receive from everyone is really a blessing and a sign that this contest is doing something right with the voters and fans. Just making statements about any any famous woman on her feet does not lead to anywhere and the conversations are never compelling. With this concept, it brings different dynamics to the entire discussion. Now it becomes a debate, a panel of judges that disagree with some arguing. A panel of a group of people taking one side while others see things quite differently. Those conversations bring these women more to light and makes you more compassionate about them. You feel good about yourself for having come to your favorite girl's defense.
The National Fashionistas has developed a fanbase, a sports nation, and a following.
The pictures and video clips bring these matches to life, especially the clips. In addition to this being a foot fetish contest, the video clips that has nothing to do with feet also makes the National Fashionistas a variety show. That concept really took off last year as a way of providing the people with great entertainment that involves the women in this contest, a closer feel to what these women are like and how they portray themselves. So even though this is a foot contest, first and foremost, it is also a contest that puts the total package together.
I'm glad you people enjoy them.

That's something I immediately realized and thought to myself when Kate was announced as this year's winner. Next year, I'll try to make it three for three. Just watch.

I'm more fascinated with models than with women involved in any other profession. I'm fascinated with their physical appearances, their sense of style, and any controversy that surrounds them.
To answer your question, it's a combination of studying them, knowing who these unknown models are, taking notes for yourself, staying tuned to what's going on and keeping up with news about them. From there I get a sense of who's on the rise.
I'm in love with models.
Posted by 18th Floor (Member # 35007) on :
Thanks for the answer, National. Makes me realize just how devoted you are to this.
Thanks for the clip from the David Letterman show. The whole segment was a bit funny and classy at the same time. And the articles about her were good reads. I feel sorry for the guy, but I somehow I smiled knowing that Kate rejected the guy who asked her out on a date. At least she wasn't rude about it. She let him down nicely. And the other article was just nuts. Now I wish that she'll regret not having Upton walk down the same aisles as Candice and company.
I saw Mila Kuni's pictures. Even though she has about a half of what Lucy has in her gallery, the pictures Mila does have makes up for the deficit. They make you want to take off her shoes and do something crazy to her feet. And the clip was hilarious. If you just had the audio of the clip, and just played the part of her talking, you'd have yourself a jerkoff instruction clip. That's the BEST sergeant any police station can have. That was the best episode of Chips I've ever seen.
It's a poor thing that AnnaLynne is losing because her pictures are just breathtaking, too. It's too bad that she caught Aniston at the wrong time because of that picture everyone is raving about when she puts her feet on that guy's face and mouth. I think Mila has feet that are too good to let Aniston beat her.
However, I think everyone should keep an eye on Tisdale. No one is talking about her and she is still within reach of catching Candice and beating her.
And Kate's pictures this week looks like something she'll do after being revealed as the cover girl. WOW she looks amazing. In those pictures, the soles make me want to lick any sweat that they have off of them.
And Audrina is facing Megan in what is always a great match. I don't see how Audrina can lose with those pictures. The closeups of her feet are truly amazing. This is one of the best she's ever looked. If she's looking like that in Week 2, then I can only imagine what she'll look like if she ever makes the finals.
Audrina is a goddess. I bow to her feet.
Posted by Jensen (Member # 33746) on :
It's now entirely possible for Tisdale to beat Candice because she now has a lead over her. Now this match has become real interesting. Candice has some real sexy arches to her feet in her pictures and Tisdale never disappoints with her feet. I'm glad some people are now starting to pay attention because we might have a case of Ashley pulling off another big one.
That Kim match against Krupa has been back and forth all week. I'm still quite optimistic that Joanna wins this one. Joanna's feet are far more superior than that of Kim's.
I want to know how many Audrina fans still feel confident about her winning this week? Remember those lead she had last week over Candice? I wouldn't be too quick to count out Megan just yet. There are too many guys in this world would would do just about anything to get at her feet. Yes, and Audrina's, too. I'm just saying that with Megan, watch out.
And I love Victoria's pictures. She will never be ugly.
And Jennifer must've had that tattoo fairly recently because I know I hadn't seen that before from her. I don't think she should've done that, but I don't think it'll be too much of a bother with some people here.
Posted by nusuth (Member # 7372) on :
that tattoo on jennifer's foot is about 4-6 months old. it is a dedication to her dog that recently died.
i agree with Foot Fashion Industry that lea is probably going to end up at the bottom of her division, but i dont agree with his lack of interest. i believe she embodies what frustrates me at times with this contest and before i go on, i will preface this with saying it's no fault of National's. i know that this really is truly about opinions and personal preferences, but to me there are some fundamentals that i think we can all agree on when it comes to pretty feet. one of the major ones i though would be straight toes. they should not be bent or twisted, right? then someone explain to me how the hell candice swanepoel so popular? her second toe has a right angle bend to it! the only explanation i can offer is that she is garnering votes based on her appearance from her ankles up.. and on that point, i agree. she is a 10 all the way.. but her feet? they'd lose at least a full point if not more for her defective toes! now lea on the other hand has very very attractive feet in my opinion. her toes are straight, she has nice arches, etc, but from the ankle up, she doesnt hold a candle to candice. i am will to bet everything that in a foot to foot competition, candice would destroy her. to me that makes no sense.
anyone care to comment?
Posted by DSW (Member # 35008) on :
@Nusuth
Now wait a second. You're getting way ahead of yourself here. While I do agree with some of what you said, your beef with Candice has me thinking that we're looking at completely different sets of feet.
I see very little to nothing wrong with them. While I have seen pictures of Lea that I enjoyed, for example the first of two sets that National showed of her last week, there have been others that disappointed me. For example, the other set that National showed of her last week and the ones this week. With her feet, there's no way she's beating Jessica Lowndes. Agree?
An argument can be made about how some women will get more votes over others based on world wide popularity. Maxim is guilty of this when they come out with their annual Hot 100 list. Cameron Diaz as the FOURTH hottest woman on the PLANET? She had to have been ranked that high because she had that movie coming out where she played that teacher with Justin Timberlake also being in that movie. I also agree that a woman's hotness from the ankles up does play a factor.
But you have Candice Swanepoel all wrong. Okay, not ALL wrong because you do acknowledge that she's an overall 10. I'm talking about her feet.
No, please don't show any bad pictures of Candice to make your point because every girl has a bad foot day or two. The defending champion does not deserve to be disrespected like that. You can disrespect others like that, even the other girls I like in here.
I think you showed some examples of Candice last year where the camera man caught her feet in compromising positions, but overall I do not agree with your assessments with Candice's feet being as unappealing as you make it out to be because all the ones National shows of her look pretty decent to amazing. How can you look at Candice's pictures this week and not think she has hot arches?
Lea has ugly tattoos on her foot, so that puts her down a point or two or three. If she had a hotter tattoo on her foot, then perhaps I wouldn't be as harsh on her about that.
Again, like I said, the pictures of Lea last week (her first gallery of two) was awesome. But I think Candice can make a case that her feet are better than hers. Jessica Lowndes can make that case.
In fact (actually my opinion), when you include Candice, I can come up with 22 or 23 other women in this contest who have much greater chances of beating Lea Michelle if she had the opportunity to face all of them. That means that there are 9 or 10 other women who'll struggle against her. Again, that's my opinion.

Posted by swman (Member # 11682) on :
Going with Jessica over Lea because once again Lea's tattoos just kill any interest I have in her feet. Im ok with feet tattoos they just just have to be pretty and those are not
Selena over Eva for wearing those heels alone (Her toes helped toe)
Wow...Rosie vs Jayde already? damn to of my favourites from week 1 already going at it but Im going Jayde. Rosie's bare feet seemed to put her at an advantage but maybe its actually tougher since theres more I can judge. great feet by both either way though.
Miranda brought it Olivia didnt that simple, going Miranda
Jessica Alba is putting up a fight but still no match for Carmen for me. Carmen in a surprisingly close battle.
Krupa with those pink peep toes get my vote. Sorry Kimmy
Thought Id go Munn but Kiebler won me over
Wow Underwood with another strong showing, Shes got my vote
Emmanuelle Chriqui once again wins me over, love her feet.
Lucy gets another near impossible draw, At this rate she'll be taking on Carmen and Kim Kardashian in the next two weeks. She'll still get my vote this week but wont be shocked if she goes to 0-2
Even with the hot week Jennifer had with the GQ photos she cant get my vote, her feet when compared to other beautiful womens feet just cant measure up. Going Annalyne
Victoria beats Anna for me with a great arch and switching up the heels and going barefoot in the end. Just a better day for Victoria
Love Tisdale and shes gonna get my vote but either girl could take this one IMO
Im not seeing Irina's pics maybe im just missing them, either way using last weeks for her... and Im going Irina
And now I dont have Marisa or Evas pics...dont know why it seems every one else had the links but Im not seeing them so I guess Ill go last weeks again and I love Marisa but going Eva
Never cared to much for Megan's feet they do look great here but Im going Audrina in this one.
Posted by footfetish&martini (Member # 34060) on :
Although I voted for Tisdale over Candice, I do agree with DSW. I voted for Tisdale because although I like Candice's feet, I think Tisdale's are better. I find myself voting for Candice more often than not because her feet are still amazing to look at. The description Nusuth gave to describe what makes feet look good makes perfect sense because there's no other way around what he said. She's not my personal pick to win it all, but I feel she was a deserving girl to become champion.
She has amazing arches to feet, her toenails are well taken care of, and I bet she puts lotion on her feet every half hour to keep them looking nice.
It does sound like you think that her feet are among the ten worse in this contest. I think they are in the top ten.
Lea does have nice feet, I agree. I would be a fool not to put them in my mouth. But Candice's feet, to me, are better. Now if you want to make the case that Audrina has better feet, I'll pay closer attention to that because Audrina has the potential of getting rid of Candice, although she has yet to show that.
I know how you feel about Carmen Electra, but I let those comments slide because for some reason I can understand why you view them the way you do and I don't feel like getting into a war or words with anyone, especially you because you are a great contributor when it comes to celebrity feet. Even though I remain loyal to Carmen, even I can make case against her about why I think Candice has better feet than her. But I'll remain loyal to Carmen because she's the first celeb feet I loved.
I think Candice is special. I feel that there's nothing we can say to convince you otherwise because this contest gives people the opportunity to look for a new champion and the world will be boring if we all agreed on the same things all the time.
If Ashley beats Candice this week, the argument about Candice being voted on her looks above her ankles are gone because Ashley does not have a body like that.
Not looking for an argument, but I just wanted to say what my take on this was.
Carmen Electra Live On!

I enjoy looking at Rosie's pictures very much. Her feet in those pictures are so hot that they give me the chills.
Unbelievably hot.
Posted by Millennium Wind (Member # 39525) on :
That pic right there was the only thing I needed to vote for Stacy over Munn. Her feet will be a force not to be messed with. I suggest that the rest of her division looks out.
Looks like we're just under 90 minutes from closing time and the match between Candice and Tisdale is too close to call. The next voters to come in here will have to make that decision for us, and it's making me feel uneasy.

OH MY GOD, I see what you mean. The closeups are incredible. I've never seen anything like it before.
And if Audrina can hold on to this lead, then it will be a cause for a celebration. I think the closeup of Audrina's feet makes the guys more horny than those of Megan. Audrina should take this.
C'MON, AUDRINA!

Is this magic, or what? Tisdale pulls off another big win! Things are definitely change around here, and if that girl's name isn't Ashley Tisdale, then she's in big trouble.
A lot has happened this week, that I don't think National himself knows where to begin.
As far as what swman was saying earlier, I saw Irina's pictures when I voted, but not the Mendes and Miller. I thought National would've fixed it, but I guess he never caught on to that. For that match, I went with what I liked based on if someone had asked me to pick between the two based on what I've seen before from them. National probably slipped there.
But this week has been real crazy! Can't wait to read National's take on all of this later tonight.

I cannot recall a time in where so much as happened over the course of one week to the point where it has made it difficult for me to decide which topic I want to discuss first. All of this has become quite chaotic. Even though battles have been won this week, rest assure that the war is far from over. The playoffs start in the first Wednesday of June, which is a thousand miles from where we are right now at the end of Week 2. This week has created new opening for new storylines to develop over the course of this season, it is going to take a long time before ordered is restored.
I love it when it's the atmosphere in here unravels to where these women now have to adjust to their original game plan and come up with a new strategy to attract more voters to vote for them in the up-coming weeks.
After doing some eenie-minnie-miney-moing, it has been decided that I will talk about the Megan Fox-Audrina Patridge match first.
----
AUDRINA TAKES A STAND
For Audrina, it feels that the playoffs have come much too early for her than it has for anyone else because of what she had to go through in the first couple of weeks of this season. It's a huge task to ask for anyone to beat Candice Swanepoel and Megan Fox in back-to-back weeks. Audrina knew that the least she can go is win against one of them and lose to the other. She knew that she could not afford to lose to both of them, especially since those matches came in consecutive weeks.
It's usually not a big deal to start the season 0-2 because there's still a lot of matches to go before we get to June. In this case, however, starting the season 0-2 against those two women would've felt as if her record was actually 0-5.
Audrina has one of the toughest schedules in the entire contest. Starting with two losses, and then looking forward to what she has ahead after that, would've been something that she wouldn't have looked forward to because knowing what Candice and Megan have done in the NFC before, would make Audrina lose confidence in herself, even though she, too, has been a top-level contestant.
There are only few women in this contest right now who could survive an onslaught on Candice and Megan in back to back weeks. Audrina is one of them. If you are an Audrina fan, you can count your blessings that she dodged a missile here because things could've been a lot worse. All Audrina ever asked out of her fans is to stick by her through thick and thin.
Audrina was in danger of developing a knack of building a pretty sizable lead before squandering it during the final stretch of the match. Against Megan Fox, everyone was holding their breath to see if another collapse was in store.
Audrina understands that accomplished women like Megan Fox will not take things lying down, so she knew that Megan was going to make some sort of comeback in the last moments of the match.
To show the world that Audrina can hold off a threat like Megan before the match finishes, is a message that she is still someone who should represent the NFC and to remind everyone in there that they have company.
The Audrina-Megan feud is another compelling story to see unfold in front of your eyes because even though it is intense like the rivalry between Carmen and Kim, this feud is different because even though they don't see each other as often for not being in the same divisions, each time they do meet up becomes nerve wrecking because a spot of the playoffs is at stake of a spot to advance in to a further round of the playoffs is on the line.
Audrina is the second woman behind Candice to have a winning record against Megan.
For Megan, as the Villainess of this contest, you can be sure of one thing. Sooner or later, that clock is going to strike twelve. And when it does, we all know who will be wearing the wicked step mother's outfit. And that lady has a long memory, and she will be stewing over this waiting to inject her poison when revenge presents itself to her.
For Audrina, it is time to take a deep breath because this win could very well be the one that saves her season.

THE SWIMSUIT ISSUE TRADITION
This is the third time in our five years together that we had a girl in this contest as a rookie who then graced the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. This year, it's Kate Upton. Last year, it was Irina Shayk. The first time it happened was back in the first season of this contest when it was Marisa Miller who was put on the cover.
This is going to be a new tradition of the Fashionistas to see if I can bring models in to the contest as rookies and see if they become the new "It" Girl in world of modeling. We are three for five in this category, with the last two coming in consecutive years. The first time it happened with Marisa, it never crossed my mind to try to see if I can find other models who can grace that cover. Now that it has happened this year and the year before that, I now have a better reason to keep SuperModels becoming a part of the Fashionista family and give us something new and intriguing to talk about. Irina has provided the spark for this last year and now Kate Upton has taken it to a level that gives this contest more publicity and provide new twists to how things will play out throughout the course of the year.
Of the 215 supermodels who have appeared in that issue, 19 of them have went on to the big screen, including the most recent model in Kate Upton. She was in the movie Tower Heist, and she will be in another movie scheduled to be released in a couple of months from now.
Kate Upton provided us with material that made for most of the discussion focusing on her. The rise of Kate Upton now makes Division I of the NFC that much more interesting than it did at this time last week. First, the buzz that Mila Kunis was going to win her division just by walking across the finish line seemed like a foregone conclusion in the eyes of many. Now she need to start sprinting because Kate Upton has caught the world and this contest on fire, Jennifer Aniston made things a bit interesting this week with that photo that appeared in the latest issue of GQ magazine. But the big reason why Mila needs to stop taking these women for granted is because of what happened this week in another match involving her division rival who wasn't even in the main even this week.

TISDALE PUTS THE WORLD ON NOTICE ... AGAIN!
Ashley Tisdale became a story last year that made last year's contest the most entertaining ever. In some ways, it can be argued that she single-handedly provided the most spark and intrigue that has never been a part of this contest before. So much so, that I thanked her for having us go on such a wide and exhilarating ride from the moment it started to the moment it ended.
Tonight marks EXACTLY 365 days of when it all started, ladies and gentlemen. It was Week 2 in last year's contest when Tisdale faced Kim Kardashian who was the defending world champion. On the night of February 18, 2010, Tisdale made the shot that was heard 'round the world by pulling off the biggest upset in Fashionistas history. That win marked the first time that someone who had won less than 25 percent of her matches defeated someone who had won at least 87 1/2 percent of her matches (this applies only to women who participated in at least 10 career matches).
Then for Tisdale people wanted to see if that win was a fluke. As the season went along, and as she kept winning here and there, she became the must-see every week because everyone wanted to see if she could keep this up.
After a bad rookie season, I brought her back because I felt her feet were extremely underappreciated and I felt that that was one of the biggest flukes I have ever seen. I didn't want her leaving this contest feeling so disrespected, so I brought her back in here for a second chance. Ashley was responsible for making this contest the most fun than it had ever been. Along the way, she defeated girls like Jessica Lowndes, Victoria Justice and she was officially responsible for putting an end to any hope Katy Perry had of making the playoffs in Week 16.
In the playoffs, as the Number 4 seed, she blew out Megan Fox in the first round, and then put on what was to become one of the most classic matches in the history of EVERY foot celebrity contest that has been ran by someone who was not me. At another time, I'll explain what happened in that match between herself and Audrina Patridge to those who had not seen it.
But now, 365 days after than Kim Kardashian win, she pulls off another upset. When McCord made good work of Ashley last week, and after Candice made good work of Audrina at the same time, everything pointed to the notion that Tisdale's 15 minutes of fame were done and that Candice would make easy work of Tisdale.
Candice defeated Ashley to start the season last year. But that will never be the match that people will remember most involving those two. This match had Ashley defeating the woman who is The Face of this contest in Candice Swanepoel. And like last year with Kim, Candice is the defending world champion. Kim's season suffered because of that loss, and now the world will tune in to see if Candice will fall under the same curse.
Ashley could turn this contest upside down like she did last year. For Candice, she we will see if she's the one who will be turned upside down at the expense of that.
With that win, Tisdale has put Aniston, Kate Upton and Mila Kunis on notice.
For Candice, as the Official Symbol of the NFC and The Face of the Fashionistas, she walks off in to the sunset all alone, with her head down as the world cheers for Ashley's celebration, uncertain and for genuine paranoia that she could never be the same again.
Just look at what it did to Kim last year.

MY APOLOGIES
Before I go, let me just apologize to those who did not see the pictures of Miller, Mendes and Shayk. If you go back to where you click on the button to see how the matches are going, you will see a note saying that I had edited something at such and such date and time. I was editing somethings I said and some of the pictures I had posted. I had Irina's gallery up there, but then accidentally erased hers and didn't realize it. With the other two, I simply forgot to put those in there to begin with. By the time I read swman's comment about it when I came home from work on Friday night, that was the first time I realized it. By that time, I figured that was going to be no use to then insert their galleries because the polls were almost set to close.
I vow not to let this mistake happen ever again.

There are so many things I want to talk about but I'll leave it here for this week.
If you thought this week was something, wait until you see the matches next week.

DSW: i dont have to dig up any pics of her feet in compromising positions. her toes are bent in all her pics. she has classic mallet toe. google it. her third toe has an almost 90° bend in it and there's nothing that can make it look that way unless it just does look that way.
and just to let everyone know.. i say this stuff and bring it all up just to get some discussions going. dont get me wrong, i am not a fan of candice's feet, but i do completely appreciate and respect everyone's preferences.. even if they are wrong no offense taken and no offense intended in any of my comments.
which reminds me, i wonder whatever happened to that paris-ite lover guy. Posted by DSW (Member # 35008) on :
You and I can go around in circles here all year and debate about Candice, which I don't mind doing because the pictures I'm seeing in here shows me just how ugly they're not. But I understand that for every ten guys who like a certain girl's feet, there will always be that one guy who think's they're overrated. For example, last year someone kept making comments about how he felt that Victoria Justice was overrated when it came to just about anything, including her feet.
Just for the record, if it came down to Candice and Megan's feet, I'd choose Megan's. But to read your comments on Candice just blows me away! Not that they're COMPLETELY wrong, but I feel that you're wrong about her for the most part.
I never thought there would be a time where I would strongly disagree with you when it comes to your comments in this contest. But I guess there's a first for everything.
And please, when you talk about Candice, Paris' name should not be even mentioned in the same conversation unless they're facing each other. Other than that, one of them has nothing to do with the other. Especially when it comes to feet.
And I do understand that your comments are meant to stir things up just liven the discussions. Nothing wrong with that.
