Why we love Kate Upton
If we had to sum up Kate Upton in just one word, it’d probably just be “wow”. That’s right, “wow”. None of this “amazing”, or “awesome” malarkey, oh no. Just "wow". Why? Because we’re constantly amazed by Miss Upton and pretty much everything about her.She’s just got the lot, hasn’t she? As a general rule of thumb, you have to if you’re deemed hot enough to be able to count Guess, Beach Bunny swimwear and Victoria’s Secret among your employers. Not to mention Sports Illustrated, where she (rightly) took the Rookie Of The Year title in 2011.
Kate’s glorious journey from child horse rider (as in, she was a child when she rode horses all the time – we didn’t mean child horses, we know that they’re called ponies, obviously) to ethereal modeling angel of our dreams began when she was just 12. She was scouted out by modeling agencies at a horse riding show, and told to get back in touch when she was old enough. Thankfully, she remembered to do so – and on attending on open casting call in 2008, she was snapped up on the spot. Presumably to a contract that binds her to take off her clothes a lot in the future. God bless the legal system.
She's even proved how ridiculously cute she is on days off, when she showed us how to do 'the Dougie' dance during half-time of a LA Clippers basketball game. Suffice to say, that video that went viral on Twitter in 2011. So, you can add being a sports fan and a good dancer to Kate's already undeniable sexy brilliance, then. Lovely.
