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!
Gail Kim‘s Midnight Blue
Grade: Sweet. With Gail’s ring attire, once you’ve seen one, you think you’ve seen it all. Not the case with this rather capturing blue and black sequined outfit. This ring attire may just be my favourite of Gail’s. As for the shots, Gail isn’t doing anything too special but she looks so flawless: not a single hair out of place and a beautiful smile. There are a couple of stunning close up shots too that have a poignant feel about them. Gail’s best photoshoot yet.

Katie Lea‘s Visual Aid
Grade: Sour. Katie Lea’s photoshoots are always unique — she’s always using her arms, she’s always wearing excessive makeup and she’s always looking goth-like. This photoshoot however, has a new element to it… Katie seems to have goggles strapped to her forehead. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. Is she going for a futuristic goth look? Who knows. Frankly, I’d be worried to know why. There’s just far too much going on: her hair, her makeup, her metallic coloured ring attire and her funky poses. It’s just super distracting and gives me a migraine.

Natalya‘s Ladder to Success
Grade: Sour. Office wear, dangly earrings, high heels and a ladder. Either Natalya is starring in an infomercial about office safety or she’s starring in an ad campaign about the metaphorical climbing of the ladder to success? I’d like to think the latter. Even then, the ladder is yet another oddly placed prop just like Katie’s goggles and I just don’t know what’s going on here. On the bright side, she’s out of her Hart Dynasty ring attire but this isn’t a huge step up.

Rosa Mendes‘ Come Hither
Grade: Sweet. She of sexy couch poses is back! In a sequel to last year’s gorgeous photoshoot where a leather-clad Rosa rollicked with a leather-clad couch, Rosa has once again found a couch to work her magic on. This may be one sequel that doesn’t stink! Rosa, this time is wearing a gorgeous deep purple dress. I love this colour and it looks like a million bucks on Rosa. The newly reacquired Raw Diva looks extremely flirtatious with her ‘come hither’ facial expressions; that half smile, those wandering eyes — it’s like she’s looking right at you. Yes, you! She looks like she’s trying to grab your attention but isn’t being overtly sexy, which just happens to be incredibly sexy. Are you following? And then we get the non-chalant, “I’m just playing with my hair” poses that pretty much seals the deal for boners/girl crushes.

Tiffany‘ Director’s Cut
Grade: Sweet. Last time we saw a photoshoot from Tiffany, she was trying out to be a cheerleader. This time, she’s trying her hand at directing? Keeping with today’s theme of random props in one’s photoshoot, Tiffany is playing around with a chair that’s not dissimilar to what you’d see on a movie set. The outfit is blah which tells me that this photoshoot was done while she was still ECW GM but it’s the poses that really have me liking this shoot. This photoshoot shouldn’t work but Tiffany comes across fun, playful and care-free as she lounges on the chair with a smiley face with legs kicked up in the air. Her eyes and her smile sell this one.
