    1. Congrats! At least legit siya instead of doing "something" in exchange to get in sa fashion show. Rampant kasi sa modeling world yan.

    2. She looks different sa side na yan sa photo.

    3. well that's something to be proud of. may pagka elusive yang opportunity na ganyan.. happy for her.

      Delete
    4. Misleading though. Kelsey isn't a Filipino. She is an American citizen with a Filipino blood.

      Delete
    5. 12:15, lumaki si Kelsey sa Pilipinas. Yes, she’s American citizen pero if she identifies herself as Pinoy. It’s her choice.

      By the way, what you just said is Racist. Porke hindi na pure, hindi na Pinoy?

      Delete
    6. Baka naman dual-citizen siya ng PH at US?

      Delete
    7. 3:57 she's american citizen kasi so misleading na sabihin first pinoy kasi alam mo naman ang pinoy mahilig mang angkin di ba? kala mo ung pagiging pinoy ang nagdala sa kanya sa tagumpay when in fact its her hardwork and siempre pagiging american citizen pa rin pak na pak!

    3. Di ba she has an american passport?

    4. Jus sanguinis po sa Pilipinas. Meaning if you have Filipino blood kahit di ka lumaki sa Pilipinas, recognized ka ng state as Filipino as long as one or both of your parents are citizens of the Philippines.

    5. Laki sa Pinas po sya. I am a friend of his brother. baka mas magaling pa yan magtagalog kesa sa inyo

      Delete
    6. She grew up here but her citizenship isn't Filipino.

      Delete
    7. american citizen sya pero pinoy dati. alam mo naman ang pinoy kahit tinalikuran na ang pagiging pinoy basta may naachieve eh pipilitin pa din na pinoy kahit hindi na.

      Delete
    8. dual citizen po sya

      Delete
    9. Half-baked siya...

  3. Malamang sa PINK segment lang sya with 1 costume and 5 secons exposure pero at least nakapg VS

    2. Ikaw ba nung nag-work ka after mo gumraduate, Operations Manager ka na agad? Unless business mo or ng tatay mo yan, keri lang.

    3. Seriously?!!! You epitomize the worst quality of some Filipinos, crab mentality. Why can't you just be happy that a fellow kababayan got her foot in the door? Your words are disgusting. Just get your jammies off and get a life.

    4. 1:42 yamo na baks be happy for her. ako kahit taga abot lang ng mga damit nila dun, ok na haha

    7. Ganun naman talaga. Sa ganun din nag start si Miranda Kerr noh!

    8. hahh obese and bitter forever

      Delete
    9. Ang bitter mo naman. Hwag mong ma “lang lang” ang Pink Segment. Kahit na 5 secs pa yan. Napakaraming models ang pumunta sa castings. Lahat sila have got what it takes. They hve all worked so hard, including Kelsey, to be in the show. Typical Pinoy mentality ang ipinapakita mo baks. I can’t understand the filipinos. Hospitable, resilient and masayahin pero ang ampalaya naman at sobrang envious pa sa accomplishments ng iba. Kaya nga siguro hindi umunlad unlad tong bansa natin. Anyways, hindi madali ang mapili to walk in the VSFS. Pwera na lang sa Hadids and kay Kendall na nang dahil lang sa nepotism kaya naka-cast.

      Delete
    10. She still needs to prove herself..daming mas senior sa kanya so ok lang kahit small exposure..importante she got IN..hirap kayang ma hired sa VS

      Delete
    11. 1:42 Makapanood ka na ba ng VS show?? Kahit isang appearance lang, walking the runway takes more than 5secs.

      Delete
    12. That is how everyone in VS began. Until slowly they become angels

      Delete
    13. Bitter si ate. Yun lang yun

      Delete
    14. Kahit sa anong segment pa sya VS pa rin yan. Ikaw kahit siguro sa brgy beauty pageant di ka mananalo.

      Delete
    15. Cara Delevigne was in the PINK segment, ano ngayon?!

  4. Woah! Congrats to her! Once upon a time naging isa sa impossible dream ko din maging VS angel. Haha.. happy for her.

    1. Never naglakad sa fashion show si Janine noon. Feature lang siya sa campaign video.

    3. fashion show nga e. reading compre jusko

    5. 3:59 shunga lang? The question is for 2:47. DUH!

      Delete
  7. Ano naman kaya ang sasabihin ng mga bashers ngayon? Naalala ko yung mga comments sa kanya before. I’m sure ngayon yung brand naman ang lalaitin na kesyo hindi na pinapansin sa US etc. FYI lang no, ang VSFS ang isa sa most anticipated fashion events every year.

    1. Haha! Sila naisip ko she announced sa IG. Nilalait pagiging Catalog model ng VS. Fast forward, she’s an angel!

    2. 1:47 dami pa din mga basher, check mo mga comments.. grabe inggit sa katawan.

    3. Not to mention of the most competitive..

      Delete
    4. not yet an angel, baks 2:45

      Delete
    5. 2:45, I'm so happy for her but she's not an angel YET. Only a few are true angels the rest are VS models. You have to be modeling for VS for awhile to be an angel. Trust me I've been watching and been a follower of VS since it was founded. Things like that don't happen overnight. I have a feeling she will be in the Pink part of the show. That's a good start.

    6. kapag b VS angel n ang isang model sila ung may mga suot n wings? or random lng un costumes kung kanino bagay?

      Delete
    7. 11:52, I think yung wings for angels lang talaga

      Delete
    8. 1:30 nope. Ang VS wings ngayon ay di na katulad ng dati na exclusive for VS angels. Puede ng magka wings ang kung sinong VS models. Di na sya katulad dati na talagang pinaghihirapan ng isang VS model magka wings lang. Like yong kay Chanel Iman dati. She walked the show muna for a few years bago sya binigyan ng wings. Ngayon kahit mga bagohan nagkaka wings na like Kendall and Gigi. Iba talaga VSFS noong panahon nina Tyra, Gisele, Karen, KK, and the likes. Models who were chosen were high fashion yet sensual and sexy. in the recent years kasi ang boring and dull na ng models na kina cast nila. Walang personality. They’re pretty pero parang teens pa. And pa cute sobra. Halos lahat pa gumagawa ng silly poses. Anyway, let’s go back to Kelsey. She fits the VS image. She’s bubbly and cute pero she can be sexy rin. I remember the young Miranda Kerr and Chanel Iman in her. Yong time na nag sisimula pa lang si Miranda sa VS. When she opened the Pink Segment noon parang ganon dating ni Kelsey. Let’s all be positive po. Hwag pong nega sa achievements ng iba.

      Delete
    9. That was before. Pero lately dinna siya most anticipated. See what happened last year? Nilangaw.

      Delete
    10. 2:05, but Gigi and Kendall were basically invited to walk VSFS cuz they were the IT girls of fashion. Hence they got to wear wings, but still not legit Angel.

      Delete
    11. Gigi and Kendall are products of nepotism. Lalo n yang Kendall n yan n pinagtatawanan sa fashion industry. Napaka epic fail ni Kenny and ungrateful brat din.

      Delete
    12. Wag ipagkait sa bashers ang pagiging nega 2:05. Ang pagiging nega ang life nila at ikamamatay nila pag hndi sila naghahasik ng lagim

      Delete
    13. Wow 07:55 makapagsalita ka parang ka rubbing elbows mo mga nasa legit fashion industry. Highest paid model of 2017 lang naman si Kendall. Maka epic fail ka! Inggitera! BTW Congrats Kelsey! Every achievement no matter how big or small is still an achievement! Go girl!

      Delete
    14. 1:36 and 7:55 are clearly Kardashian ass kissers. Kendall and the Hadid sisters are overrated when it comes to modeling. They’re not legit supermodels but more like instagram models. They only get booked because of their fame, family name and instagram followers. They are not the it girls of fashion. Actually, fashion is dead. It’s now all about marketing and money. Fashion houses lack originality and they copy each other’s aesthetic and designs. Even Vogue has stooped down so low. It’s no longer the same.

  8. Yasss! Congratulations Kelsey! I don't really follow her on socmedia pero super nakaka-proud na may mapapanood na akong Pinay sa VSFS!

    1. Hindi p siya angel dahil first yr niya to pero let’s hope. 10 lang yata ang angels, yun yung may kontrata sa kanila.

    2. 2:40 she will be signed im sure about that!

      Delete
    3. 2:40, agree. You would need to have exclusive contract with VS and all of their Angels are also top models in the runway. They all walk for the top designers in fashion week. Now that Kelsey is a VS model, she needs to do more ramp walk to join that exclusive club. I don't think Kelsey has walked for any fashion week in the US and Europe.

      Delete
    4. 7:54 Hindi mo naman kailangang lumakad sa high fashion runways para maging angel. Remember Marissa Miller? She was not even a high fashion model. She was more like a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model but she became an angel.

      Delete
    5. 2:06, but that's the thing. Marissa also had Sports Illustrated to keep her name out there. She did walk for top designers for fashion. Google mo. The only thing is if you keep doing the sexy stuff, u get boxed in doing just that and mostly that. Marissa never made it as big compared to her contemporaries kasi she stayed doing the sexy ads. Kaya nga sana Kelsey aims higher than VSFS.

      Delete
    6. Kung ako sa kanya, try to book milan, paris, london and nyfw kesa maging angel.. hindi na yan katulad dati na million dollar contract.. si adrianna na lang ata meron non. Mahirap maging exclusive sa VS.

  11. congrats! i hope she gets a lot of airtime and exposures (pre-show, backstage etc)

  12. Wonderful for her! Rock the stage Kelsey!

  13. She seriously need invisalign. Sobrang halata on sideview

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. May masasabi pa rin no? I hope your prettier than her..

      Delete
    2. Maybe her overbite is caused by having a small jaw, in which case invisalign will not solve it.
      Anyway, it seems like she’s not bothered by it, just like she’s not bothered about her stretch marks.
      And frankly, having flaws makes her more relatable.

      Delete
    3. seems to be working out for her though

      Delete
    4. I highly doubt her teeth is a huge problem. There are models who even have huge gaps on their teeth pero famous pa din. It gives u a different look. Just cuz model na doesn't mean u have to be perfect.

  14. Sana if i am carrying a baby girl on my tummy now, maging VSFS model din someday.

    1. I know what you're saying is true but it doesn't take out the fact that it's still an achievement to be a part of the VSFS. And goes to show how bitter you are.

      Delete
    2. 7:39, but that's the thing. Is it really an achievement? By whose standards? In fashion world hinde na masyado relevant ang VS. Sad, but true. The clamor for VS has long been gone and done. Once they got rid of most of the top Angels and their quality went down the drain, so did their relevance.

    3. They were better before when they didnt have any stores, order by catalogs only..may mystery pa ng konti..now parang just another store na lang

      Delete
    4. Anon 12:46. It was an achievement for her. Who are we to question it? When a parent posted an achievement certificate of their kids. May karapatan ba tayong question-in yung kasiyahan nila?

      Delete
    5. Anon 12:46 We have different dreams. Don’t belittle Kelsey’s. Ikaw ano ba naabot mo sa buhay? For sure hanggang chismis ka lang.

  16. Where na ang mga bashers na nag sasabing never naman maka rampa si girl? Na hanggang catalogue lang siya. Ayan na ho. Maka bitter kasi and bash ang kapwa pinoy wagas.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Naalala ko si Gigi Hadid nong natanggap siya para maglakad sa VSFS. Naka 2 auditions din siya bago nakuha. Sobrang saya saya niya non. Halos lahat ng models gusto nila maging part ng VSFS.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Malaki para sa kanila ang masama sa VSFS. Pwede ka kasi mapansin ng ibang mga brands diyan. Lalo ng ng mga high ends.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Good for Kelsey! She's been dreaming of this. Sana she works on her walk a bit more kasi intense ang VS runway. May mga swarovski crystals yan! And hope she doesn't end up as fashion roadkill like that Chinese girl last year. Que horror!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Well deserved! I have to say though that's great PR move for VS as well. The ratings for VSFS hasn't been good for how many years now. With a lot of Kelsey's fans tagging her and basically begging VS to have her be part of it, for sure that also had something to do with them picking her. You'll get a lot of Pinoys watching and going nuts on socmed, so well played VS. Well played.

    1. Guurrl, pinoy fans pa papansinin ng VS? Ang petty ng haka-haka mo on why Kelsey was chosen. Napaghahalatang ampalaya ka.

      Delete
    2. As if Pinoy fans are relevant to VS. Give credit to where it is due. Kelsey worked hard for it and she earned it. Hwag bitter. It just shows what character you have. Petty, jealous, sad and miserable pinoys.

  21. Congrats girl! She partly got this kasi may reputation ang mga pinoy to be super annoying and loud on socmed, konting kibot internationally pinoypride agad hahaha PR for VS din yun. Anyways goodluck girl and congrats again

    1. Exactly! Kainis nga basahin ung mga comments, like proud pinoy! Geeee sometimes kahiya na coz they're like begging.

  22. Sana this opens the doors for her to walk the major runways kasi doon mo talaga malalaman na legit ka. In real fashion world, VS is nothing anymore. Yes, may clamor kasi sexy ladies pero in cutthroat fashion world hinde. I wanna see her open and close out shows for the top designers. Hopefully she aims higher than VS. Better to be a regular model walking for a top designer than VSFS. Mas maganda sa resume. This is what was said to me by a friend who works for IMG model agency. Sana she moves to IMG where the top models are.

    1. Okay nga if Kelsey gets booked on high fashion runway shows and ad campaigns. Pero if magiging VS angel sya in the coming years, okay na rin yon. Ang lucrative ng contract at isa pa it’ll open more doors for her.

    2. True. Wala ng dating ang VS ngayon di gaya dati nasa HF modelling talaga ang chance mo na umangat

      Delete
    3. Eh pano kasi kung sino sino nilalagay...nawala na yung prestige. puro show walang fashion. idagdag pa dyan yung downgrade ng product nila. VSFS 2016, nasira yung suot ni Gigi habang nasa runway.

      Delete
    4. their prestige went down the drain noon pa. It wasn't just recently. There are higher end lingerie and swimsuit brands that are more known and used now like Zimmerman. They had to get rid of most of their clothing and shoe line cuz it wasn't doing well. VS are for the young mallrats. Even I don't buy their stuff because it's not worth the money. You can spend more for better quality or pay cheaper for the same quality as VS.

      Delete
  23. I don't think so. Give credit where credit is due. Nakikiagaw pa mga pinoys sa achievement nya as if they had anything to do with it. Papansinin ng VS ang mga socmed pinoys? Get real.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Saan na yung mga crab na nagsasabing pang VS brochure lang pala siya. Hype na hype daw. Hindi na lang maging happy sa isang pinay na natupad dream niya. huwag lang sana maging Miranda Kerr ang ugali. Haha!
