David Beckham launched a new line of Emporio Armani underwear almost a month ago. How could I forget? Too bad, David Beckham no longer is “hot” to me, so I lost my focus!

Whatever… I managed to salvage a couple of his advertisement campaign posters and also a picture taken at the event on 18th June, 2008, where David Beckham unveiled new Emporio Armani underwear at Macy’s. David Beckham also took time to sign autographs for his fans.

To me, the advertisements look great artistically but the real deal is kind of different. I guess this is what people call “weather beaten” LOL Anyway, I pity guys. They don’t have much choice when it comes to underwear. Perhaps David Beckham can go back to wearing Victoria’s thongs?

With Victoria’s Secret finally wrapping up their popular VS semi-annual sale, I thought that it is an opportune time to feature a Victoria’s Secret Angel. I have done quite a few VS angels before, especially on my original blog.

Since taking a break from blogging on that blog, I have lost touch on the newer angels but one name that caught my attention is Selita Ebanks, especially after the fiasco with Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey’s recycled ring. Of course, they denied that but I guess no one knows the truth except the parties involved.

So it was not difficult to decide on whom to write on today. Selita Ebanks was born in Grand Cayman, the British Cayman islands, on February 15th, 1983. She has seven brothers and grew up a tomboy.

What many people are not aware of is that she became much sought after by Victoria’s Secret after she underwent breast augmentation, going from Bra cup size A to 33C.

See, even for someone who looks beautiful enough as she is, standing at 5ft 9in, she still needs a little help to make herself more “perfect”. I don’t think we should depend on plastic surgery unless it is for medical purposes but I am not going to judge her.

Selita Ebanks has been touted as the successor of Tyra Banks, who left active modeling for a TV career. It could be because of their exotic looks, skin color and coincidentally, their similar family names.

For this post, I scoured the web for images of Selita Ebanks in lingerie, particularly in Victoria’s Secret lingerie, and some taken during Victoria’s Secret’s fashion shows, in 2006 and 2007.

I think that Selita Ebanks has done very well for herself, coming from a humble background, hence she is giving back to society in charitable efforts in the British Cayman islands where she comes from. That certainly is commendable.
