Chanel Iman Earns Her Wings

We've posted about Chanel Iman before, but it's amazing to think this year was only her second Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. She was a welcome sight last year, and even more so with her sweetheart mega-watt smile, eyes and this year, Wings.



As far as wings, I don't see how they'll ever beat Heidi Klum's Snowflake Angel wings, but it was cool to see Ms. Iman tear up over deservedly getting her wings this year (Video above)

I'd say those wings add a bit to her powers..



Like levitating AKON? No problem.



Of course, if I saw her pointing at me, coming my way wearing that outfit, I might start floating, too.. and don't mess with her - she can take care of herself



Or at least bubble you into submission



She even got to celebrate her 20th birthday a few hours early in part by watching the show on CBS. My girlfriend and I both like the fact that she drops little facial cues and has fun with the crowd, similar to Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio. And she's only 20. If she's this good now, it makes you wonder how good she'll be when she grows up someday.
(OK I'm not much older, so sue me)

Victoria's Secret Spring 2010 - Do You Love Their Bodies, Too?

One of the great things about it being closer to a new season? It's a (great) excuse for Victoria's Secret to come out with a new collection. In this case, their Spring 2010 I Love My Body Bras. Chanel Iman, Rosie Huntington-Whitley, Candice Sawnepoel and Lindsay Ellingson show off four of the seven new bras above

Check out the TV commercial and the Behind-The-Scenes video of the campaign photo shoot:





And, as if it isn't cool enough to actually hear from the ladies themselves in the two videos, you can also go to this interactive page to hear (and see) more. Want to know which model practiced her VS Fashion Show runway walk while watching it on TV - and was a part of it the next year? Which model overcame some childhood heath problems you'd never have known she had? Who's closest to her Mom and where they're all from? Put your cursor over their images for a video from each. You can also take a Which Body Are You Quiz and win some lingerie. Don't say they aren't giving you enough content - or eye candy - to keep you at their site..

Victoria's Secret calls one of their new lines of bras and matching panties Incredible. With Chanel Iman wearing them, they certainly are..
