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.

For today’s post, I actually contemplated if I should write about Marisa Miller, Adriana Karembeu or Colombian lingerie designer Ines Vanegas.

In the end I decided on Marisa Miller because it has been ages since I wrote about a hot lingerie model and Marisa Miller is number one on Maxim’s Hot 100 this year so there’s no denying her popularity. By the way, she is at number nine on Ask Men’s 2008 list of 99 hot female celebrities.

While Marisa Miller does not have the most striking of facial features, she does have a body to die for, yet she thinks that it is the most shameful thing on yet. Then why continue to flaunt it? Haha!

Marisa Miller is more popular as a swimsuit or bikini model thanks to her incessant appearance on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. However, in line with the theme of my blog, I am more interested to see Marisa Miller in lingerie and there’s no shortage of shots of her in lingerie thanks to her work with Victoria’s Secret.

As if Marisa Miller is not hot enough, this shot of her wearing ONLY an Apple iPod made her a hit among men. I have to admit, her looks shone through in this shot!
