National Fashionistas -- Week 16. The Contest That Celebrates Foot Fetish Hollywood.
There are two weeks left in the season. We have this week and Week 17 to deal with before the Playoffs takes its hold on us. We still have playoff spots that have yet to be occupied. These girls will want you to push them to the limit and help them secure a spot for the tournament that will ultimately decide the champion. The playoffs are not here yet. However, some of these ladies will be asked to perform as if they are.

THE STANDINGS
(The first number next to each name is for the number of wins so far. The second number stands for her losses. The third is for the number of ties. The last number is her winning percentage.)
Part of what makes this contest unique are the rivalries that have stemmed and developed over the years. The first big rivalry was between Carmen Electra and Kim Kardashian. In the times they've engaged in their will to out-stage each other, they have each won the Salvatore Ferragamos, the title we give to our world champions.
They both rose together to the top, and in this season of their great disappointments, they have lost control of an American Female Class that was there for their taking and control.
Even then, we shall never forget the legacy Carmen Electra has left behind, and the entertainment Kim provided.

I can feel the heat already as the playoff approach. I enjoy reading your closing statements to close out each week, National. I learn something new every week. For example, after thinking that I know so much about this contest, it was sort of a hidden fact of what you said about Audrina. I didn't realize that she's the second woman in history to win her division three times until you mentioned it. Another fact you mentioned was the one that this year Irina is the only one, other than Kate Upton, to win her division at a time where she didn't lose to anyone in her division. I swear that if I were to ever run a contest for as long as you have, I would not be able to keep track of all of this. Love how you keep track of all these things.
For this week, these matches are very, very intense. I love the pictures in so many of these matches that they make the matches themselves much better. The main event this week is a match that is as nervous it will ever get this season. This is a match that both women need to save their seasons. I voted for Aniston. Her pictures serve up many great views of her feet. I love Alba's closeups, but Aniston is having a very special year and I would love to see just how far she can maximize her potential, even with the minute chance that she still has of making the playoffs.
Aniston stayed alive last week. And now, it's not crazy to think that she will somehow stay alive though this week. Nikki Reed is no longer an automatic victory after upsetting Megan Fox last week. And another thing that can get Aniston closer is the fact that Fox is facing Swanepoel. If I remember correctly, National said that, among other things, Aniston needs Fox to lose at least two of her final three matches. She lost last week and she might lose this week.
What seemed like an impossibility for Aniston at one time is turning into a great chance that she'll sneak in the playoffs.
Love the respect National payed to both Carmen and Kim. This is their final final time to shine before the season's through.
And after looking at McCord' pictures this week, I feel so good about her chances of beating Marisa Miller. I love how she's dressed in all black, love how her feet look in those shoes, and love her display of affection with Jessica Stroup.

I had a feeling this week was going to mean business when the first match up there was Jayde Nicole vs. Selena Gomez. Both women really need this match, but Jayde needs this one a bit more. Selena can afford to lose this match and still find a way to make the playoffs. But Jayde Nicole is closer from not making the playoffs. Irina already took the division. Jayde needs Jessica Lowndes to lose this week in order to increase her odds of making the playoffs. I voted for both Gomez and Lowndes this week, as I think they have the better feet in their respective matches, although there's not much to argue against the feet of both Jayde Nicole and Stacy Keibler.
Awesome pictures in the Audrina/Victoria match. Audrina has been on a big roll over the last several weeks, which is excellent because she needs that momentum to carry over into the playoffs. Audrina has an excellent body and her feet are well on display this week. I don't see how one cannot find the time to pleasure himself over those pictures. And Victoria always brings it to Audrina. Although she has more clothes on than Audrina, what's going on from the waist down can make this match competitive. I picked Audrina here.

I agree, 18th Floor. From the looks of things, it looks like Aniston is on the verge of completing her miracle. This would not be a topic of discussion had Mila Kunis taken care of business by beating her last week. Megan Fox wasn't much help, either. She lost to Nikki Reed last week. Because of that win, Nikki is now a threat to Mila. I picked Mila Kunis this week.
And let's not forget about Tisdale. This girl has some big wins under her belt. Imagine what it will do to her if she were able to pull off this upset over Kate Upton?
And even though AnnaLynne's division has not been able to get a hold of itself, it's still very interesting to see how that race will play out. I think it's going to go down to the final week of the season next week to finally see who wins that division.
This is the best contest in the world. Thanks for all your hard work, National.

Another big, big match to talk about is the Stacy Keibler one where she's facing Jessica Lowndes. This was a real tough match for me to decide on because both have the type of feet that cannot be turned down by just about any of us in here. The thing that makes it tough is the fact that we are now forced to choose between the two. It was one of those matches that you feel bad for whoever you vote against because you like her feet a lot, too. I had to pick Stacy for this match. If Lowndes wants to win the division, she needs to win this match. Otherwise, she needs to hope for a loss from Jayde, just like Jensen pointed out earlier today. In fact, I voted for Selena Gomez over Jayde Nicole because even though I voted against Lowndes this week, I still want to see her in the playoffs.
Another match we should keep a close eye on is the Tisdale match. It looks like Tisdale is going to be in the playoffs as one of the two wild cards. Mila Kunis is the one who we're still uncertain about. But Tisdale is putting on a good show against Kate. I'm voting for Upton here. I want to see how far she can take her undefeated season. I think people are willing to see if she can pull off a Megan Fox and win the championship with the perfect record in tact. But I give Tisdale a LOT of credit for making her feet look so sexy in those shoes she's wearing in those pictures.

Anyone seen Rosie in Candice's pictures? What a combo! Love how they came that close to locking lips in some of those photos. That is so sexy! Two women who are playoff bound are featured in the same gallery is a winning formula. Add Miranda in there with that fourth chick, and we're all set to go. I think Rosie was featured in Candice's pictures because Megan Fox is involved in this match. I think both Candice and Rosie got it on in their hotel room that night when the cameras weren't around.
The video was just amazing to watch. This is Candice on cruise control, knowing that she's in the playoffs.
Thanks for giving us the artist's name and the name to the song that played in the video. Now I can't get it out of my head.

Especially the last two such pictures.
And I agree with everything else you said, DSW. I also want to know who that last girl is. Both Candice and Rosie look so affectionate with each other. And as for her video, put on your headphones, turn the volume up, have a cold one while you're at it, and enjoy the video for maximum effect.
Other than her being sweet as cherry pie, another lyric in that song that's so true is that she'll put a smile on your face that is ten miles wide. Posted by National (Member # 8568) on :

What a disappointing season this has been for me and for Carmen Electra. When the year started, I thought she would make a push for the playoffs like she did last year. Instead, it was one loss after another. This explains why I haven't been in here for the last several weeks. But if there's anything left that can put a smile on my face is to see Carmen win this match. She'll finish the year with some dignity after doing that. And it was great for National to make a great post for those two this week. Certainly miss the days those two were at the top of their games at a time when things were so different back then.
I love Carmen's shoe department pictures. An amazing body for someone who's at her age. Seeing her push the boys in to the pool was cute to see.
Even with this disappointing year, Carmen Electra Lives On!

I think Katy Perry has the best soles in this contest. If there's anyone who's been under-appreciated this year, it's Katy Perry.
Posted by foot_fashion_industry (Member # 33265) on :
I was thinking about not voting for Jessica Alba for the first time because I was having a hard time accepting the fact that she has been doing this poorly all year. It's hard to see your favorite girl, who was at one time a consistent winner, become one of the also-rans of this contest. I want for Alba to be a winner at all times and to see her have the year she's having has become completely unacceptable.
However, I convinced myself to give this girl another shot to make the playoffs in that terrible division she's in. So that means that for the second straight week, I have to pick Jayde Nicole after I spent all that time talking shit about her when she went up against Audrina. That also means that I have to vote for Lea Michele, which doesn't say a whole lot considering that I have a passionate dislike for the fake Olivia of this contest.
So for Alba, she needs to win out, she needs Gomez to lose this week and not next week. Next week, with all the matches being rematches against division rivals, it looks like Olivia will go up against Selena Gomez. I know Olivia and Alba had their two matches this year, she's having her rematch against Lea this week. So that leaves out Gomez. Alba will face Lea Michele next week.
Even though Alba is my favorite girl and favorite feet of this contest, I feel that Aniston, who is also in my top 5, will get the win here. She's on a roll as of late. Had she lost to Mila last week, her season would've been officially done. Instead, that win gave her new life.
I'm one of the guys who voted for Nikki Reed over Mila Kunis. Being that she was able to pull off the upset over Fox last week, I have high hopes that she'll spoil Mila's season and allow Aniston to get in there.
What makes this contest special is that it creates come bitter sweet moments for me. And this dilemma is exactly that. The matches gives me mixed emotions. Do I vote Aniston? Do I vote Alba? I love both of their feet and both women to death. Do I vote for Jayde, even though I hate her? And with the way things are going, I might find myself looking at Olivia's feet next week and vote for those in order to save Alba's season.
Why are you doing this to me, National? For the first time, I find myself not knowing what the hell to do.

Wow, now we have a name to attach with those feet. Doutzen looks great. Her feet in those shoes makes me want to remove them and see how great they look when they are set free. So now she, Miranda, Rosie with Candice makes that gallery complete.
I can't wait for the playoffs to start. You have Kate Upton, Candice, Audrina, and Tisdale competing on the NFC bracket of the playoffs. That's a stacked pack right there. That is the best of the best right there. I cannot believe that all but one of them will make the finals. Candice is on a roll, Audrina is on a roll. Audrina's pictures this week is perhaps the best one this week. Audrina is showing off to remind everyone that business is going to pick up. And that's just the NFC. I don't even want to think about who will represent the AFC in the playoffs because that list will be just as lethal.

It's pretty cool to see Carmen and Kim together in the same pictures. And it was even cooler that both of them gave us pretty excellent looks at their feet I would've love to have been that surfboard for that moment. Also fitting that you showed the clip of those two wrestling against each other. That rivalry has been that intense for a very long time. I voted for Carmen in this match.
Both Stacy and Lowndes are putting on a very intense battle for us.

I understand what you're talking about. However, in my case, I'm siding with Jessica Lowndes. That closeup of her feet are just killer. Should Lowndes win this match, it will make her look more like a threat come playoff time.
I love how Selena's toes look without the nail polish. Naturally great nails.
Tisdale has lost her lead, but she's still making this an interesting match. Nikki Reed is making her match something to watch out for, too.
Irina Shayk is a great definition as to how something sexy is supposed to look like. What I really love are the pictures of just her face. Clicking on them to get a closer look makes you want to jack off to them. Her footwear is interesting, to say the least. But her feet looks better when those shoes are off.
Posted by footcenter (Member # 34062) on :
Victoria look very beautiful this week. Every week you can expect nothing less out of her. Her shoe are so sexy and they're the perfect match for her feet and what she's doing to them this week. She posing them in different angle and playing to our senses.
Posted by Millennium Wind (Member # 39525) on :
With Audrina's pictures. This is going to be her year, finally. I celebrated her birthday by looking at those pictures. Audrina is giving her fans what they want. Look at her feet, for Christ's sake. You can't make an argument against that.
Posted by DSW (Member # 35008) on :
I want to see how Tisdale handles this situation. She's known for making big combacks and pulling off big wins or upsets. Kate Upton will be one ultimate upset and it will make her, perhaps, the biggest threat going into the playoffs. Kate has done an excellent job in handling this match with Tisdale, a testament to how well Kate can absorb the competition. I want to see how Tisdale handles this. At one time, she was down by twelve. We should keep an eye on this match.
And this is sort of a playoff preview now that those two are facing each other this week. And what 18th floor mentioned before, the playoff pictures looks stacked with superior superstars. It's hard to imagine any of them get eliminated after all the hard work they've put in to make this year very special. It will be so stacked, that it will be hard for me to pick which class has a stronger group of women.
And Aniston continues to be relentless. And Mila needs to be careful. I want to see her in the playoffs.

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ON TWITTER --
Joanna Krupa -- I thank god for everyday. Never take my life for granted and appreciate everything that comes my way. Enjoy the good and learn from the bad.
Olivia Munn -- Someone just said 2 me "Doing yoga is like getting a massage!" ShutTheFuckUp. U know whats like getting a massage? A massage!
Olivia Wilde -- A mosquito just bit my ass so hard it almost felt good. Except now I can't sit down without a hemroid pillow.
Stacy Keibler -- i'm not usually a morning person, but waking up at 5:30am to go to a basketball game this morning was worth it Posted by 18th Floor (Member # 35007) on :
Joanna Krupa looks sensational this week. Her feet is the icing on that cake.
quote:Originally posted by indemand: I think Katy Perry has the best soles in this contest. If there's anyone who's been under-appreciated this year, it's Katy Perry.
It's almost impossible to argue against that point about Katy having the best looking soles in this contest. And I do feel sorry for her for how things turned out for her this year in the contest. I guess everyone is entitled to a below average year. I hope Katy makes a big comeback next year. For now, I'm just delighted to see her having a hold on her match.
I'm watching that Tisdale match, as well, against Upton. That match had a bit of back and forth action going on.
Let's see if Stacy can hold on and win the division. I voted for Stacy, but it wouldn't surprise me to see Lowndes get ahead towards the end and keeps it that way.
And Marisa is doing a great job of holding off McCord. I'm still very hopeful that McCord can make some noise before the time is up. After 85 votes, Marisa is ahead by only 5 votes. I'm very hopeful.
And Carmen Electra is giving us one last charge of electricity before the year is over. I guess. Next week, she will face either Keibler or Lowndes. If Carmen comes in with great pictures, Carmen might be able to spoil someone's chance at winning the division and go in the playoffs as a wild card.
Posted by 18th Floor (Member # 35007) on :
Kate Upton keeps her streak intact. For a long time, there, I thought Ashley was going to add another huge win to her already impressive list of big-time girls she has beaten. But even though she lost, Tisdale did an excellent job at keeping Kate Upton working for what she's worth. And this is just the regular season. Who's to say that she won't step it up in the playoffs? Tisdale had some great pictures, but Kate hung in there barely.
Mila was able to pull ahead from her competition at the last moments to keep her season alive. And speaking of that, it looks like Jayde Nicole is still in the running for making the playoffs as a wild card. That was a HUGE win for her to keep her hopes alive. Jennifer Aniston, too.
I can't wait to read what National has to say about this later today. As always, your work in organizing and coming through with celebrity feet pictures is second to no one in here.

One week to go before we start with the playoffs. There are people in here who are very excited with the women who will be in there and the possible matches that will take place when the tournament starts. There are some women in here who haven't won their divisions or have gotten invited as wild cards, but we still know they will be in the playoffs one way or another, like Marisa Miller and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. With others, it is still uncertain as to what their statues are, like a number of other women.
Seven spots are still up for grabs for the playoffs. Next week, all seven of them will finally be occupied. Next week, every single spot will be had. Next week, we will know who will be in the playoffs and how all of them will be seeded. And if I have to, I will use my tie-breaking procedures to force someone in there and force someone out of the picture. Next week is where a number of these women will meet their dead ends where their seasons will fall just short of making the playoffs. Next week, when it comes to some of these ladies, it will be do or die for real.

Last year, Ashley Tisdale finished the regular season with ten wins. That was good enough to win that division. This year, you need ten wins to still fight your way out of LAST PLACE of that same division.
This division is officially the strongest division we have ever had in history. The strongest ever in history. When the season started, I thought Marisa's division was going to end up as the most competitive. If it wasn't going to end up as the strongest, then I thought it would've been one of the strongest because of who they have on paper. I think part of it is because everyone knew what to expect out of Marisa Miller. But with Kate Upton's division, her group turned out as competitive as they did probably because no one expected this unknown in Kate Upton to come out and have the year she's having. That surprise woke everyone up and had them working harder. I guess the other women in that division took Kate Upton for granted for one too many weeks and lollygagged their way through the season expecting this unknown rookie to fall back to earth.
But here's what they failed to realize. When you're only 19 years of age, a supermodel with a body like THAT, and they call you Kate "The Great", you don't just fall back to earth.
With ten wins so far, that's where Jennifer Aniston finds herself. And with the way things have gone so far, she just might fall short of making the playoffs. Jennifer Aniston has had an amazing season. She deserves a standing ovation for everything she had put forth and for the relentless effort she has put into her campaign. If she doesn't make the playoffs, she'll be the third woman in history to not make the playoffs in a year where she's won at least ten matches. And that says a lot because in this contest, when you have ten wins, you literally have the tickets in your hands to appear in the playoffs. But from the way things look, Aniston won't have that ticket punched. That because next week, in the Season Finale, Jennifer Aniston will face Kate "The Great". In some cases, this is the point in the season where those who are playoff bound will start to lay down for their opponents, figuring that they don't need that match. Their attitude is that they'll still be in the playoffs regardless. In Kate's case, when you're 15-0, you want to finish what you started and go for the undefeated season. So I don't see Kate lying down for Aniston.
So for Mila, she has the ticket in her hand as well. Knowing that Aniston will face Kate next week, she should might as well punch it because if Aniston loses, Mila will be in the playoffs regardless. But I always want to play it safe and not make these announcements official until they actually happen because strange things can happen. If Ashley Tisdale was this close to beating Kate Upton this week, that gives Aniston a lot more hope about her chances of making the playoffs. Aniston can cap her sensational season with an HUGE upset next week, knowing that Ashley Tisdale will give Mila a very, very hard time in their match next week. If that happens, Aniston forces a tie breaker with Mila. Anything can happen when I break ties.
----
Jessica Alba's season is officially done. After setting the all-time record for making the playoffs four times, she finds herself on the outside looking in for the first time in her career. In her division, there is no combination of wins, losses, or ties that can help Alba sneak into the playoffs.
And with the loss from Selena Gomez this week, that also marks the first time in Fashionistas history that we will have a division champion with a losing record. With that in place, people might wonder if that'll get me to change the format in such a way as to not allow anyone with a losing record in the playoffs ever again? I understand that when something like this happens, other people feel robbed because some of these women have worked real hard all year long, only to not make the playoffs and have their spot replaced by someone who has a lesser record. In this case, someone with a losing record.
Every year, I have an off-season meeting with the Board of Directors. The topic of changing the regular season format comes up. And every time, we decide not to change anything about it. Every two years, I have another discussion as to whether we should change the playoff format. The answer has always been no. Besides, every woman knows what she's in for the moment she signs the contract, she knows how the season is set up. She knows that things like this can happen. If anything, what's happening with Selena Gomez and Olivia Wilde is an incentive for other women to work harder and win their divisions to begin with.
It's possible that the same thing can happen wit Division IV of the NFC. Even then, I still won't change the format.
----
For Jayde Nicole, big win this week. She's still alive. For her to make the playoffs, she needs to win next week, obviously. Also, she needs either Carmen Electra or Kim Kardashian to win their matches next week. If they both win, that'll be better for her because in a three-way tie, that increases one's chance of making the playoffs. But she'll be content if one of them gets a victory next week.
----
Megan Fox got the win over Candice Swanepoel the first time around. Candice made sure that that wasn't going to happen the second time around. In fact, she handed Megan Fox the biggest loss of her career. If there's any loss that made Megan look human, this was it. Not only that, if that doesn't tell any other girl that Candice is ready for the playoffs, then she, too, will have her lunch handed to her the way Megan had it this week.
Candice is the first woman in history to beat all of the other women who are former world champions. Two of those wins came in back-to-back weeks. She beat Carmen Electra the week before.
----
With the magic Tisdale has brought into this contest last year, she has taken that success and made this season another one in which all of her moves were closely monitored. When you become the first woman to beat two women who were crowned as champions, and the third woman who has beaten both Audrina Patridge and Candice Swanepoel, you are no longer under the radar. You become more powerful when everyone knows who you are and what you are capable of doing. She was minutes away from doing it again by handing Kate Upton her first loss. No one has ever pushed Kate Upton to the limit the way Tisdale has. Tisdale was down by 12 votes at one time in that match before catching up to her and taking the lead.
Ashley Tisdale is not phased by anyone anymore. Let me repeat, my gentle snowflakes. Ashley Tisdale is not scared of anyONE, anyMORE. In fact, Tisdale has become an enigma of this contest. For someone who is so little -- and I'm not kidding about that, either -- she imposed the well-deserved belief that she is a threat to win any match she's in. If any girl who faces her and thinks she can get an easy win over her, is a FOOL! Yes, there might be times where Tisdale won't be a favorite to win a certain match. But Tisdale will put up the biggest fight her opponent can handle, even if it was in a losing effort from Tisdale. Just ask Audrina what that was like in last year's playoffs and ask Kate Upton what that's been like just now if you don't want to take my word for it. For Tisdale, if she's going down, you're going down with her.
For a wild card, she is a big a threat as just about anyone else in the playoffs.
Next week, EVERY match will be a rematch against division rivals. This will be the time to see which girls become women. Also, I sent someone to Payless Shoe Source to get the cheapest pair of flip flops they have in there. I sent someone there because I would rather go to places like Prada and Salvatore Ferragamo to well worth purchases on shoes for women who are well worth it.
Lea Michele is one loss away from receiving the infamous PayLess Shoe Awards for losing every single match this season.
----
And thanks to those who appreciated the homage I payed to both Carmen Electra and Kim Kardashian. Before the season was done, I wanted to do something that commemorated the highlights that made this contest the phenomenon it is today.
