The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is canceled, according to model Shanina Shaik.
“Unfortunately the Victoria’s Secret show won’t be happening this year,” Shaik said of the show, which has run for over 20 years, in an interview with The Daily Telegraph published on Tuesday. “It’s something I’m not used to because every year around this time I’m training like an Angel.”
Victoria’s Secret didn’t immediately return HuffPost’s request for comment.
“But I’m sure in the future something will happen, which I’m pretty sure about. I’m sure they’re trying to work on branding and new ways to do the show because it’s the best show in the world,” the 28-year-old added.

Sports Illustrated now puts fat chicks in their swimsuit issue. Can’t believe it’s good for sales.
SI won’t reveal exact figures, but reportedly sales of the swimsuit edition have been falling the last few years.
The developing Les Wexner-Jeffrey Epstein connection
I'm not sure why it would be handy for someone to have his hooks into Wexner, but if the guy was being blackmailed...Cui bono?

Another “get woke, go broke” situation.
“I have a decent sized house they can do the show in.”
I’d even install a stage...and a pole.
They couldn’t enlist enough trannies in time for the show.
That’s my guess.
“Get Woke, Go Broke”
Victoria’s Secret brand cannot afford to be associated with trannies and fatties. It would kill the brand.
If they cannot conduct the show with EXCLUSIVELY the kind of hot women that their primary customers want associated with the brand, then the only solution is to not do the show.
Really interesting question: If Epstein was indeed running a honey trap for Deep State and/or foreign governments: Why ensnare Wexner??
I dunno. Isn't that kind of the whole *point* of a bikini?
VS will now only have Trans models:-)
Leftists ruin everything!
SI will be out of business in a few years.
That was my immediate assumption.
Imvho, Victoria Secret’s major problem is that (unlike the long ago days when my late wife modeled lingerie/swimwear/bridal attire for VS in England in the 1970s) the company quit selling the BEAUTIFUL & ROMANTIC lace & quality silk undergarments, pretty/high-quality outerwear & better swimwear & started selling OVERPRICED & POOR QUALITY cotton stuff that young girls could easily afford.
Btw, in the early days of Victoria Secret, the company made outfits that made even rather “ordinary-looking” women “of a certain age” look glamorous.= The dressing gown worn by “Lynn Bracken”/Kim Basinger was the sort of thing that Victoria Secret sold back “in the old days”.
(In the early days, most of the models, who were called “Ladies” rather than “Angels”, were mostly in their late 20s or early-mid 30s.- My “VK” retired on her 30th birthday, btw.)
I guess what I’m saying is that had the company NOT completely changed their “marketing strategy” that the company wouldn’t now be in financial difficulty.

Hard to get enough advertising revenue to pay the bills for an extravaganza on that level of viewership.
