Two days before the highly anticipated Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, Candice Swanepoel posted a photo on Twitter showing how she had meticulously prepared for her moment in the spotlight while scantily clad on stage.
Tragically the ensuing image of her concave stomach and jutting hipbones has caused a bitter backlash from followers outraged with the South African model's unhealthy body image, along with concerns that she is suffering from an eating disorder.
"It's quiet obvious this girl is bulimic," wrote one commentator, while another posted: "It looks like the African kids… only missing the number you need to call to donate."
This is far from the first time the 5'9" blonde beauty's emaciated frame has appeared shockingly thin, and as RadarOnline.com previously reported, Candice was skin and bones in a sexy animal print bikini at the 2011 SWIM collection launch in March 2011.
After she got a frosty reception to the glamourous shoot, Swanepoel, 24, defended her weight to People.com. "I am healthy and happy," she said. "I'm heartened to know how much everyone cares about me, but in this case, everything is normal and good."
Last month, she appeared with a group of equally skinny VS models at the Mario Testino Exhibit preview in Boston, where healthy-looking new mom Alessandra Ambrosio dominated the red carpet with her sexy curves over her skeletal cohorts.
The annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show takes place on Wednesday evening in New York, and will air December 4 on CBS at 10 p.m.

I was a size 4 before this pregnancy, but it's also my 3rd bb, so stuff never really looks the same again, even at a really small size.
He also never had weight issues his entire life. My dad was always a perfect size 32 pants.
/angst
Had I ended up with someone closer to my own age, I probably would have put it off several more years, considering how guys in their 20s are. :P I graduated college in 2011, lost almost all the weight I wanted, got married in August, and just went off BC (which has made me lose a couple more pounds already, woo)
My bff just had a bb in January and her partner is older too--I want to say he's 35 or 36? That's why she decided to have the bb--older man, more ready to be a dad.
And I always feel weird when ONTD is like "ERMAGERD __ IS WAY TOO YOUNG TO HAVE A KID" and I'm like "...not necessarily." idk it depends on the person! Some people my age shouldn't be responsible for a goldfish, let alone a kid. And others, like my bff, are great at it.
I'm actually headed to the midwife tomorrow to get a general checkup for the whole thing. :D
I'm mad at myself for not losing weight before having my kid. I could imagine how nice my stomach woulda looked had I done this before, when I didn't have the skin issues to deal with now. 40lbs from post-baby weight, and 80ish from the serious OMGBLOAT from pre-e. It's kinda exciting, and scary at the same time, to think of those numbers.
