Latest pcks
Whatever’s on my mind really.

A peek at illustration inspiring celebrity sexiness, quirky news stories from inherently pornified pop culture, tips, sketchbook and work in progress, reviews and other things of interest; whatever’s on my mind really—which more fool you if you ever take that seriously.

Latest Picks is a sort of mini-blog for daily thoughts and picks. Longer articles, stories & sketches are found in the full-size blog, where indeed Latest Picks are moved when updates to a story make it too large.

Note: Both Latest Picks and Blog are to be retired at the end of September, although both will remain available indefinitely as an archived part of the site. No further updates to past stories will be made.

VS Angel Shanina Shaik, who has walked in the show seven times since 2011, revealed the news to The Australian Daily Telegraph on Tuesday.

The 28-year-old veteran dropped the huge bombshell and admitted that the famous catwalk show would be taking a break in 2019.

With the brand having come under fire for its lack of diversity and promoting an unhealthy body image—which seemingly saw the LOVE advent take a rain check last year (see related stories)—and Leslie Wexner, chief executive of Victoria’s Secret’s parent company L Brands confirming that the show would no longer be broadcast on network television: Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show cancelled after lowest viewer ratings ever (dailystar.co.uk).

Last year, the Victoria Secret show hit an all-time low with ratings, with only 3.27 million viewers tuning in, compared to 12.4 million at its peak in 2001.
