I wonder what the final number is too! I know it was huge already in the 1st 24 hours.

[mochamama]

I wonder too, on the number! I'm just sitting here refreshing when I thought... oh no I have to make cupcakes for DD's birthday party tonight... Guess I ought to get that started before it's time to go to the party. I can't believe I forgot!

[Libby Pritchett]

I thought I'd come hang out over here where the party is while we wait for the announcement!

I don't even want to THINK about how many applicants there were. I'm not sure I can count that high. LOL!

Good luck to all!!

[lilysmama]

ok...now i'm wondering about the number of applicants. it had to be a ton. this place rocks and keeps getting better....soooo now i'm really freaking! it is my lunch break and i am seriously going to be refreshing every 10 seconds while i eat. now just watch...i'm running to subway and it'll post while i'm gone...LOL! good luck everyone!

That huge! Oh no, that stinks for me lol..
hurry hurry, I wanna get my rejection over with.

[lhaslem]

Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun dun (insert impending doom music here)...

so, i probably would have already gotten an "invite" if chosen, right - since everyone is supposed to find out today...So sad - it was definitely worth another try though (and I secretly still have my fingers crossed

That's what I'm thinking........they are probably waiting for a response from the ones they invited before the send rejection e-mails........ Oh well, there is always next time right! (assuming this is the case!)

Yes, sadly, I'm starting to think this is the case as well. . .

[kresta]

heehee. . . . .

So could someone just like give us a little wink or something if they've gotten an email?

j/k lol

(thought I'd try to lighten the ever-darkening mood of this thread)

[InLoveWithDOTS]

This thread is definitely a bummer, but I do look forward to the announcement so we can congratulate the lucky babes!

No winking here,

[mochamama]

Were we getting an email if we didn't make it too or no because the number is too huge?

If it makes anyone feel better last I checked, Robin hasn't logged on here since 9:30 this morning.

I'm almost positive they said we would be notified either way.

[Julie Billingsley]

no winking from me And Robin did say that we'd hear on Friday either way. Last Babe call, I didn't hear for an extra day because of MY internet provider. Even though the message was sent at the right time, apparently it went the LONG way around the internet :P before I got it the day after everyone else heard... but again, that was last time.

[lilysmama]

the only winking i'm doing is from looking at this screen too much today...LOL!

[Robin Carlton]

Hey Ladies...

I *JUST* got up and am gonna work on sending invites now We had 114 applications for this position and ended up taking an extra Babe to accomodate just a bit more talent. I can't tell you how AMAZING all of you are and I know I'm not alone in saying that if having 40 Babes was a realistic option, we could have easily filled those spots with the talent in this pool of applications.

I'll be emailing all of you in the next couple of hours one way or the other, but I just want you to know that no matter what the outcome, dont give up and try again and again and again if you have to in our future calls. 3 of the 4 NEW Babes have applied 3+ times for this position and are finally being brought on board so believe me when I say it is NOT about your talent as an artist...you are AMAZING...it's simply a matter of only having 3 spots and SOOOOOO many amazing people who want them.

You guys ROCK and we are so blessed and honored to have such an incredible fan base!! THank you! Thank you! Thank you!!

Off to send emails!! Good Luck!!
Robin

[Julie Billingsley]

Thanks for letting us know Robin! Either way the result... you are a class act!

[lilysmama]

ok so seeing as though this was my first time applying that just knocked my chances down to slim to none...LOL!

ditto...LOL...I guess we can consider this practice for the future!

If I was Robin, I wouldn't want to do this too often...but the anticipation was fun...still can't wait to see the new members!

THANKS for all your hard work, Robin!

[cindys732003]

Thank you for letting us know Robin.....you are so sweet!

[lhaslem]

i've applied once before - but I'm betting I'm not the extra talent they let in I will definitely try again, though

Can't wait to see who the lucky girls are!

[Brandy]

[Libby Pritchett]

Well, I just got my email... *sigh*

It's okay though. I REALLY didn't expect it this time. But I'll just keep applying again and again until Robin and the girls take pity on me. LOL!

Can't wait to see who DID make it! I'm sure the talent was incredible!

[Di-ahh]

Sorry girls for those who aren't getting the nod this time. You all still ROCK!!!

Now I wish I had applied so I could have got my first Babe call rejection out of the way! LOL

[mochamama]

Well, I just got my email... *sigh*

[sczos911]

[flowergirl_jess]

[InLoveWithDOTS]

I got my rejection!

Fess up, girlies.... who got on the team???????????

[Hom74]

{{HUGS}} girls. I'm sure the designers here were amazed w/the tremendous response especially considering the short call that it was. I can't wait to see the new Babes popping in.

[KirstieGai]

congrats to the girls who made it, I'm sure we'll hear who they are soon

[Kat Stokes]

I didn't make it this time either... However, I would like to say - Robin, YOU are a class act and I only hope that other designers/stores take their cue from you. Thank you for providing us with such a great community!!!

As for me being a babe... well, there's always next time...

[Lindsay]

I just want to say Robin, you rock sending the e-mails. It's always nice to be acknowledged even when you don't make it. Good luck ladies!!!!

[WDWGirl]

Well, not this time, but that won't stop me from re-applying again and again! LOL
Congrats to those who made it.. i am sure they are all babes!

[LizMtz]

I got my rejection too! But Congrats to the 4 lucky ladies!!!

[lhaslem]

not me either this time - definitely worth the 2nd try though! I'm sure we'll all be on the lookout for the next call for this sweet gig!

[digitaldiva]

congrats to those ladies who made it...and for me, better luck next time! But Robin, you rawk at the emailing and acknowledging part...it almost makes me wanna get rejected again....ok maybe not, but it was nice to get that, it pretty much made my day! but I will be trying again, you can guarentee that!!!
