Welcome to this week’s edition of Unwrapped! As always, we will be grading all of the new photoshoots (or “eye candy”, as we like to call them) from the week gone by, judging them like so:
Sweet (Great) • Bland (Iffy) • Sour (Awful)
You, the reader, will also get the chance to grade the “eye candy” yourself by giving your opinion on each shoot and voting for your favorite out of the whole bunch. Now, dive in!
Angelina Love‘s Twisted Steel
Grade: Sour. Angelina Love, in her trademark trashy ring attire here posing backstage at the Impact Zone. I like this bright blue but seriously, Angelina’s ring attire is far too complicated and perplexing for anything to stand out. I mean just look at the top — you have blue, then you have animal print and then you have a black sequined boob tube. Good lord. The backgrounds in these shots provides an interesting contrast but honestly, it just looks odd and not nearly as abstract as it should.

Chelsea‘s Could It Be Magic?
Grade: Sour. Poor Bellas, always stuck with the lame outfits to placate that week’s Raw guest host. This photoshoot is hilariously silly with Brie and Nikki in PVC magician’s assistant outfits. I don’t know about you but these just look like bondage outfits to me with hats and wands thrown in. Very PG!

Chelsea‘s Inner Animal
Grade: Sweet. TNA newcomer, Chelsea is looking pretty stylish in this outfit. I’m not usually an animal print fan but I think it works here with the contrast of the black top. I particularly like the bangles pushed up her arm, providing some simple yet effective accessorizing and also the detailing around the bottom of the top. The poses are fairly simple but I think it works.

Gail Kim‘s Sleek & Sexy
Grade: Sweet. Here is Gail looking really laid back, simple but super stylish. I love the simplicity of this outfit but everything fits together and comes together beautifully. The black tank, the ruched skirt and the high waisted belt are all great together. The red shoes add a little colour to the outfit too. Her hair and earrings also sell this one. Gail seems more confident in her posing with her selling the outfit rather than trying to be overtly sexy too.

Kelly Kelly‘ Day & Night
Grade: Bland. This is a very interesting outfit and it could be edgy if it weren’t for Kelly’s boring poses. The top with a somewhat transluscent back is quite sexy and revealing but not too much. I think even without much colour, this dress just pops and looks great but it needs to be sold by the girl wearing it which Kelly just doesn’t do. She just looks like a pretty girl in an edgy outfit that she just can’t do justice because she doesn’t have the personality to pull it off — her eyes are deadpan, her poses are cliched. This could have been a great photoshoot but I don’t see much personality from Kelly.

Maryse‘s No Frills
Grade: Bland. What immediately strikes me about this photoshoot is just how unflattering this dress is on Maryse. The flowers or whatever they are around the chest just look like frills that you’d find on an old lady’s blouse. Maryse’s boobs don’t look magnificent here; they just look huge and protruding and I don’t think Maryse is wearing a bra, they just look like they’re hanging out and not perfectly in place. You can show your off your bust in a sexy, tasteful way but this just looks like she has two rocks sitting on her chest weighing her down. I like Maryse’s poses but most of these facial expressions are unflattering and I definitely see some Photoshopping on her face.

Michelle McCool‘s Rock Siren
Grade: Sweet. Michelle McCool really can pull most looks off and I love it when she experiments. This photoshoot is edgy, fierce and captivating. Not many can pull off a dress like that, in fact most wouldn’t even attempt it but here is Michelle daringly pulling it off. It may resemble a black bin bag but damnit, Michelle is working it. If the dress didn’t stand out on it’s own enough, Michelle has paired this with some killer wedges with a criss-cross design and a funky leather bracelet. The dark and mysterious setting provides the perfect backdrop for this shoot too.

Miss Tessmacher‘s Porn Parody
Grade: Sour. New TNA Knockout, Miss Tessmacher is supposed to be Eric Bischoff’s new assistant and plays into every cliche possible about the slutty secretary. This really does look like one of those office pornos where the girl is in a super trashy secretary outfit and then takes it all off and undoes her bun with a slow-mo of her shaking her hair out. Not sexy at all.

Tiffany‘s Jersey Snore
Grade: Bland. Tiffany looks like she’s doing a parody of her own — of MTV’s Jersey Shore. You can just picture her going to the beach with her big Snooki hair. Unfortunately, Tiffany’s photoshoot is not nearly as exciting as the drama on Jersey Shore, hence the name of this photoshoot. Tiffany is pretty much standing around, smiling and showing off her body. It’s an impressive one, I’ll give her that but this photoshoot just looks paegant-y.

Tiffany‘s Wrestler Barbie
Grade: Bland. If there were ever to be a ‘Wrestler Barbie’, this is how I envision her being dressed — except with a pink top instead of purple. We all know that Tiffany has been quite impressive in the ring of late but this attire is just dreadful. The poses are pretty much the same as the shoot above — standing around and smiling. Not much variety here.

Vickie Guerrero‘s Excuse Me
Grade: Bland. Poor Vickie. This was only put up as an April Fool’s Day joke even though The Bella Twins look effin’ ridiculous in their photoshoot. I guess slim and slender trumps all~ Nonetheless, you can’t really expect great posing and outfits from Vickie so I definitely wasn’t expecting anything less than what we got. I do give her credit for the bedazzled jacket though!

Gail looks by far the best. Kelly looks pretty, but the pattern on the dress is ugly. McCool doesn’t have the personality to pull off that shoot. Most of the others are blah. No comment on Angelina Love.
Michelle seriously has the best taste in shoes, A+! I loved her outfit, and I thought it looked like a bin bag too lmao!
The only other one I like was Gail’s, and perhaps Chelsea’s. The rest were just…no.
I swear people disregard the attire completely and just look at who they like or who has the nicest face in these things. I mean Angelina’s is seriously sour, yet somehow its sweet and fashionable? I guess Summer Fashion 2010 will be interestingly hoochie this year.
Where does it say Angelina is sweet and fashionable? =S
If you’re referring to the article it doesn’t condone her outfit in any way.
Anyway, I hated Michelle’s outfit. I have such a huge girl crush on her but even I can’t handle the garbage bag dress. At least she took a risk?
Gail wins this week for me. Kelly’s dress is fantastic but she’s no model when it comes to posing and whatnot. Oh well.
Chelsea, who is becoming my favorite Knockout, looks amazing. Love that dress.
I know nothing about fashion but McCool looked like she was wearing a binbag. Tiffany looked horrible in both of hers, in the bikini one, she had a drooling face, just very odd. Was it really called Jersey Snore, as I don’t why it’d be called Snore, other than because its bland!
Gail and my favourite Maryse looked great, there is one pic of Maryse which is just amazing, the one were she is swishing her hair, stunning. And Vickie was gorgeous aswell, she is HOT. [/sarcasm]
I was going by the votes that Angelina has, I wasn’t criticising the article in any way, shape or form.
Gail’s fast becoming the most fashionable Diva in WWE, the amount of great shoots she’s done and won on here is stacking up. Yet, for some reason when it comes to television, she wears the most hideous outfits (RE: That toga thing and the Hawaiian dress this past week) I don’t see why Tiffany wears that horrible top in her attire, her outfit in FCW looked so much more appropriate and fitting for her, this makes her look like she should be following Shauna-Na around.
Chelsea looks good, but then that’s all Chelsea ever really does, she’s not great on mic and when she talks anyway she has a tendancy to annoy me, but at least she can pull off a good shoot and a nice outfit. Kelly’s is just blah, I like the way she wears a black outfit with a bit of white and it is named ‘Day and Night’, Maryse is ‘No Frills’ indeed or No thrills, she looks shapeless in that outfit and I hate it when she wears white with her platinum blonde hair, it always reminds me of Mordechai back in 2004 was it?
I think Michelle looks great, the outfit does look a bit bin bag like, but she pulls it off well and it helps her heel like persona.
The Bellas, well I guess the upgrade in screen time has resulted in a downgrade of outfits. Why? What has magic got to do with anything this week or month? Better still why dress up as magicians? Its hardly top of the fantasy roleplay list.
Sorry LookingGlass!
I didn’t think to look at the votes :P
Ha don’t worry about it Cryssi. I’ll let you get away with it since you’ve made me laugh several times this week.
Ha I just re-read Brooke’s description (I refuse to call her by her TNA name) I could so easily see her doing the slow-mo hair shake thing to a Barry White soundtrack.
Gail Kim <3 Far Out.
Gail was my favourite this week, shes putting out WAY better shoots nowdays, hope it contunues. Need a jean shoot next please WWE :D
I disagree about Angelina, i really really liked hers, i think it was because facially she looked great, more then anything else though.
Gail Kim had the best shoot hands down <3
I really liked Gail’s, Michelle’s, and Maryse’s shoots.
I’m not even going there with Tiffany, I can’t stand her so I’m not going to comment on her (or her facial expression, which hasn’t changed for five years) whatsoever ;)
Honestly, I thought Michelle pulled off the dress, can you imagine the Bella’s in that?! Just no. She pulled it off.
I pick Michelle, She was the best by far this week.
Michelle shoot is amazing! loved Gail too.
Gail Kim’s photoshoot this week was by far the best in my opinion. Michelle McCool’s was great too.
The Bella Twins’ outfit looks hideous. I wonder if they actually pick it out, or if WWE gives them what to wear when they are hanging around the guest hosts?!
I thought Maryse looked the best, but then again I believe she could pull a Sable and rock a potato sack.
i thought Gail’s look was something we’d see on Eve, down to the hair and dress…everything…but she looked good
Michelle and Gail were the best
Just looked at the whole of Angelina’s and I agree with Danni, I don’t dislike it at all. She looks really nice in the face here. Shame she wears Kesha like rank clothes. Looknig at her clothes, you’d think a sausage roll has more class.
Vickie wins hands down!! She’s so adorable!! Michelle looks amazing here, that dress is fierce and her poses are immense. On the other hand, Angelina sports her usual slutty attire and Miss T&As porn parody is kind of funny in a not-so-funny way.
I love McCool’s outfir so much. Now, about the Angelina Love outfit, when I see close-ups of this shoot, where you stated there is animal print, I see none. I see a silver sequined top, then the black sequined top. I agrre the slutty looking outfits are a bad factor in things, but that’s all she knws i guess. Seeing as she used to wear sluttier outfits back in the day. Bellas of course are bad, and Gail looked good. <3
Where’s Velvet’s black hot pants, Daffney’s bikini and thumb tacks, and Victoria’s photo shoots?
Is it just me, or does Dirt Dive ignore most of the KO shoots? They skipped over the last 2 SoCal Val ones (blue dress and sexy in bed) and the St. Patrick’s Day one with Victoria and SoCal Val.
Gail all the way like damn girl….
