Vanessa Flashes Her BONGO

With rumors swirling that she may become the next Mrs. Nick Lachey, one role Vanessa Minnillo can count on is being the new BONGO girl.

Vanessa Minnillo
While BONGO clothing brand has chosen the "TRL" hostess as the face of their Spring 2007 advertising campaign, it's Vanessa's slammin' body in Sixties pin-up inspired poses that's hotter than 98 degrees!

Interestingly, Vanessa replaced last year's BONGO It girl, "Laguna Beach's" Kristin Cavallari (remembah huh?), who was linked to Lachey for a hot minute.

From the looks of Vanessa in the ads, Matthew McConaughey won't be the only naked bongo player in town!

16. Whether these pictures are Airbrushed or not, she looks as good as any of the other women that they would pick to represent them! You can't hate on the girl, she had nothing to do with the Jessica/Nick split, why can't the world just expect that Nick and Jessica got married like thousand's do, it did not work out for them for numerous reasons, and they have had to move on! It doesn't matter if it was Nick who cheated or if it was Jessica, somehting in their relatioship went wrong, and they have moved on in different directions in their own lives! Why hate on Vanessa Minnillo in these shot's she is as pretty as anyone else and looks nice! Give the girl a break, you go Vannessa and I hope that all of you are happy and have great year and much love to you, Nick as well as Jessica!

22. Dee, why do you hate the fact that Nick Lachey is supposedly "BENEFITTING" from his divorce from J. Simpson? If Nick is indeed doing so, what business is it of yours? Jessica is the one who wanted and filed for the divorce. I like both Nick and Jessica but it's obvious that he has moved on, much to Jessica's dismay! Nick attempted to reconcile but Jess shot him down. Once Nick moved on with Vanessa, Jessica realized what a darned fool she was and attempted to get Nick back, but he wasn't taking her back, he's now happy!

Vanessa looks great in the ads, and by the way, who isn't touched up in magazine photos these days.

23. First of all, Nick seemed to be a down to earth guy, that a lot of people truly ended up liking after seeing him on the Newlywed series on MTV... I will admit my friends and I would watch the show and wonder what did Nick see in Jessica's ass, my boyfriend even commented that he would have definately divorced her after buying those damned expensive ass sheets... Whether he had millions or not, what was the point of the sheets? Anyway, Vanessa is a pretty girl, people need to stop hating on her because she is now dating Nick Lachey. I also like Jessica Simpson but I think she made a huge mistake by throwing her marriage away to further (in Jess & Papa Joes' minds) career, which has taken a serious nose dive. In my opinon more people sided with Nick than with Jess. There were a lot of fans that supported them as a couple, and when they had to choose, it seems they sided with Nick.

Vanessa looks great in the photos, she is attractive and seems to have some sort of intelligence. Jessica Simpson and Vanessa are attractive in different ways. But as they say beuaty is in the eye of the beholder...

My opinion is that Vanessa looks great in the ads...

24. He lost his "man card"??? Clay Aiken lost his "man card". I'd walk around in high heels for Vanessa if it turned her on!!!!

Why the hell are you guys focused on the business aspect of Nick and Jessica? It's the marriage that counted and that's something that Jessica failed at. Now you guys are bashing Nick because he moved on and she's like a bloody train wreck. In a divorce one person gets the money and one person gets the friends.... Nick got the friends, and fans. It doesn't matter how much Jessica made 3 years ago. How much will she make this year or next???? Stick a fork in her..... She's DONE!!!!!!

25. Dee, how do YOU know Nick was jealous of Jessica.
Did he call you personally and chat about it? Email you?
WTF. Unless he's a personal friend of yours, you're projecting
what you think goes on in someone's head. Come on.

26. Have any of you ever seen pics of Jess at 5, 13, 20, 25....she is the real deal.....she has a very "natural" look.....not to say she hasn't been air brushed, but I watched the Newlyweds show on MTV, religiously.......and the girl is beutiful, even when she is hungover and burping......

I get upset that he is benefiting from their divorce, because he has ALREADY benefitted more then enough from their marriage, the SO CALLED MAN wanted alamony from her.......he's just a better disgiused K-Fed......and Vanessa is his Brit......he said he wouldn't put it in the media, and he has.....for someone that was so "BROKEN" by their break up....he's certainly picked up the pieces pretty fast.....dont'cha think?

I think Vanessa M. is very plain, very common, and TOTALLY opportunistic......

HE SHOULD HAVE DIVORCED HER FOR BUYING EXPENSIVE SHEETS?????

With HER own money? Do you have any clue how many average, every day people spend that kind of money on sheets....>not me, but how else would Italian sheet designers like Frette stay in business if people weren't paying $100.00+ for a pillow case......

It is nice to see you hold the sacrement of marriage close in hand......

28. **** #25 *****

Did you ever watch the show? Did you ever pick up a magazine? See them walk the red carpet???He was Mr. Jessica Simpson......and if you couldn't see that, then you are blind and your seeing eye dog responded to my blurb on your behalf......he had every reason to be jealous of her....her career was 5 times more successful then his ever was.....and he had to share the 98 degrees spot light with 4 other guys....

29. I have a comment for you #4 Jessica has nothing without Nick. I'm glad their not married anymore. He deserve a woman who would love him for who he is he is nice guy..... your Jessica is going down.

30. Damn Dee, how much are they paying you?????

I watched every episode of "Newlyweds" and Nick Lachey came across like a REAL MAN!!! Shyt, I wished I had a man like that.

Jessica made a huge mistake letting him go. And if I were Vanessa, I would hold on to him. Men like that are rare!
