>> Karolina Kurkova to Walk the Runway Pregnant? —We got the run-around on whether or not Jourdan Dunn will walk pregnant — she said no, and her London showcard lists her available for "special bookings," the category typically reserved by her agency Storm for Daphne Guinness or Eva Herzigova; but now pregnant Karolina Kurkova hinted today that she may be walking in a show.  She also said that postpartum, she plans to return to the catwalk: "But this is my first baby, so I'm going to see how it goes. I want to spend time with him." [The Cut Twitter, WWD]

>> Karolina Kurkova Switches Agencies, Is Having a Boy —Karolina Kurkova seems to be switching her focuses now that she's six months pregnant with her first child — a boy — and her Victoria's Secret Angel contract lapsed earlier this year.  Her first blockbuster movie — G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra — comes out this Summer, and she's switched from longtime agency DNA to IMG, joining the ranks of models who have become brands like Kate Moss, Heidi Klum, and Gisele Bundchen.

>> Karolina Kurkova Is Six Months Pregnant — The cast of this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is going to be decidedly different, now that three of its usual stars are pregnant: Angel Heidi Klum is due in the Fall, Angel Adriana Lima is due in the Winter, and Karolina Kurkova (whose Angel contract expired this year) just announced today that she is six months pregnant with her fiance, film producer Archie Drury, who she's been with for a little over a year. Meanwhile, the jury's still out on Gisele Bundchen, but she continues to wear flowy tops. [People, Page Six]

>> BLOWING THE COVER —While we're waiting for the much-anticipated May 2009 model-filled cover of Vogue, here's some more upcoming cover intelligence for you: Speculation was kickstarted earlier this week when Anna Wintour was spotted with Sienna Miller at The Mysteries of Pittsburgh premiere, and now it's confirmed — she shot the July cover last week in Los Angeles, likely to coincide with the release of G.I. Joe later this year.  Wonder if Karolina Kurkova, who also has a role in the movie, will make a cameo in the feature inside? [NY Post]

>> Victoria's Secret may not have the cachet of say, Balenciaga, but it can make a model a millionaire.  Although the lingerie company is currently taking heat for its rash-causing bras, its event of the year — the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show — is still on schedule for taping in Miami Saturday night.

The Angels — Heidi Klum, Alessandro Ambrosio, Selita Ebanks, Doutzen Kroes, Miranda Kerr, Karolina Kurkova, Adriana Lima, Marisa Miller — will all be there, but more pressing: Who are the unnamed 30 models who have also been cast for the show? 

Fittings have been going on for the past week at least, and yet no names have leaked — the closest to a hint is this photo, above, of what appears to be Lara Stone in a Victoria's Secret outfit.  She's not your typical VS model, but the possibility of a multimillion dollar contract in the future is enough to make any model try something new.
