Well, let me tell ya ’bout this Laetitia Casta gal and that Victoria’s Secret thing. I ain’t no fancy writer or nothin’, just tellin’ it like I see it.
Who’s this Laetitia Casta anyhow?
So, this Laetitia Casta, she’s a French somethin’ or other, a model and a movie star, they say. From what I gather, she was a big deal back in the day. Real pretty, with them big eyes and that pouty mouth. Kinda like those movie stars on the TV, but, you know, different. They say she became a big shot all over the world, an “international icon,” they called it. Fancy words for a pretty face, I reckon.
And what about Victoria’s Secret?
Now, Victoria’s Secret, that’s a place where they sell them fancy undergarments for women. You know, the lacy stuff, the silky stuff, all that. They have these big shows, too, with all the pretty girls walkin’ around in next to nothin’. Heard they cost a pretty penny to put on, them shows. All them lights and music and whatnot. Must be somethin’ to see, though I reckon I’d be too embarrassed to watch it with all them young’uns around.
- Laetitia and Victoria’s Secret, a match made in…well, somewhere
Seems like this Laetitia girl, she was one of them Victoria’s Secret angels, back in the late 90s and early 2000s. That’s what they call them models who wear the wings and such. They say she was in the fashion shows from 1997 to 2000. She must’ve been a real looker back then, all young and fresh-faced. I saw some pictures, she looked real nice, I gotta say. Not like these skinny things they got nowadays. This Laetitia, she had some meat on her bones, you know? Healthy lookin’. I heard tell she didn’t much care for bein’ too skinny neither. Said it weren’t right for models to be all starved lookin’. Good for her, I say. A woman needs her strength, am I right?
Why are we still talkin’ about her?
Well, I guess people still remember her ’cause she was somethin’ special. You know, she wasn’t just another pretty face. She had somethin’ about her, a real presence. And them Victoria’s Secret shows, they were a big deal back then. People watched ’em on TV and talked about ’em for days. Nowadays, it’s all different, I guess. But folks still remember the good ol’ days, and Laetitia Casta was a part of that. They got pictures of her all over the internet, still lookin’ good even after all these years. I even heard she went to some Valentine’s Day fashion show for them Victoria’s Secret folks back in, uh, when was it? February the third, somethin’ like that.
So, what’s the big deal?
I ain’t sayin’ it’s a big deal. Just tellin’ ya what I heard. This Laetitia Casta, she was a famous model, she worked for Victoria’s Secret, and people still remember her. That’s about it. She’s been in all sorts of things, campaigns they call ’em, for different brands. Seems she’s done alright for herself. Good for her, I say. Work hard, make a name for yourself, that’s what I always say. And if you happen to look good in them fancy undergarments, well, that’s just a bonus, ain’t it?
Anything else?
Nope, that’s about all I know. Just a pretty gal who made a name for herself in the modelin’ world. And Victoria’s Secret, well, that’s just a place that sells them fancy underthings. Put ’em together and you got a story, I guess. Not much of a story, but it’s somethin’ to talk about, right? Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. All this talk about fashion shows and models is makin’ me hungry.
One last thing
I heard tell you can buy all sorts of stuff online now, even them Victoria’s Secret things. And they say you can get it delivered real fast, like the next day even. Imagine that! Back in my day, you had to go to the store and pick it out yourself. Times sure have changed, haven’t they? But some things stay the same, like a pretty face and a good pair of… well, you know what I mean. And that’s all I gotta say about that.
