POLL: Ms. TMB Bracket Poll - FINAL - Raquel Welch vs. Elle MacPherson.
- Thread starter Midnighter
- Start date
EM is certainly on the Mount Rushmore of beautiful woman last 25 years, But RW might very well be the most beautiful woman to have walked the surface of the earth since the Titanic sunk.
Did not know RW's father was Bolivian. Worth noting two latina women made it to the Ms. TMB semi-finals.
So, not AustinNitt's Girlfriend?
Elle is a fox
But Raquel is the GOAT

I can’t argue with either choice. But my losers final 4 bracket would have included Jennifer Lawrence, Bridget Bardot, Margot Robbie, and Eva Greene.

Elle. Although neither of these two would have been in my final four. To each his own and vive la difference.
The leader, in the now

Let's be fair Rude... RW is 81 and EM 58. Let's see if she looks this good in 20 years (78)...
RW, even in her prime, had more work done on her than the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

Welch in '98 (when she was 58)....
I know, I know. Just wanted to provide a little reality. We will all be worm food someday.Let's be fair Rude... RW is 81 and EM 58. Let's see if she looks this good in 20 years (78)...
Yeah but I was hoping that would happen after I die
Clearly the pandemic lock down was not good for the lovely RW... i know many women here in Dallas that went to shiit with access to Botox, nail/hair salon, etc... I am guessing many never recovered
She might be an old woman now, but in her prime she was as good as it gets and it's been proven here as well.

I voted for Elle. Partly because leggy blonde, also partly because looks tremendous at 50+.
Voting in the final closes at 10:18 on Friday morning. As such, if you've not yet voted, please do so.
If I recall correctly, I voted for the opponents of each of these finalists in their respective semifinals. That makes this vote a bit of a challenge for me.
Raquel certainly had an amazing set of lungs. The 5th pic of her (in the green dress) is a show stopper.
Elle is also quite a looker, though in a different way. The 6th pic of her (in the white t-shirt and the blue something) is mesmerizing.
My initial instinct when the poll was posted was to vote for Raquel. However, as I've considered this over the past few days, I've decided to vote for Elle.
Thanks again, @Midnighter, for putting this entire thing together, across the old site and this site.

Elle MacPherson
Hoping to crunch some poll numbers to share once this is all over. It’s been fun!
Midnighter, love these polls, many kudos for doing this. However this final (for me) is a tad anticlimactic. There were much better earlier rounds.
Elle easily. (I don't find RW "hot" compared to more modern contestants).

I said from day one RW was the goat and it's playing out that way, lots of surprises (To me) along the way, good time for sure..
Many thanks to Midnighter for doing these polls. He is a first ballot Hall of Fame message board poster!
@Midnighter-
I commend you for taking the time to do this and seeing the project through to the end. I am certain it was not easy, especially with all the great talent you had to choose from and the match ups that had to be set from that talent. If I recall correctly, this even survived the board jump.
In the end, hard to argue with RW. She was probably the favorite going into the competition. And Elle was certainly a worthwhile opponent- she did earn the nickname "the body" after all! While my personal favorites did not make it to the final (Beckinsale, Daddario), they had good runs. The best part of this (other than the ladies, lol) was reading the multitude of comments of different tastes.
Kudos, thank you, all honor to your name @Midnighter!

This comes down to era. My hunch is that Elle wins going away with the under-50 crowd. Raquel represents a nostalgic time, but IMO (only), Elle is perfect on many levels. Raquel was a busty redhead who was one of the first sex symbols which swings a lot of votes.
