Victoria's Secret Slams Sports Illustrated Cover Girl Kate Upton
Posted on Wed Feb 15th, 2012 9:30am PDT By X17 Staff
Kate Upton may be on the cover of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue, but don't expect the 19-year-old model to be walking the runway for Victoria's Secret anytime soon!
Victoria's Secret's casting director Sophia Neophitou told The New York Times, "We would never use [Ms. Upton for a Victoria's Secret show]," adding that the choice would be "too obvious."
Despite the fact that Upton has reportedly modeled for VS before, Neophitou continues, "She's like a Page 3 girl. She's like a footballer's wife, with the too-blond hair and that kind of face that anyone with enough money can go out and buy."
Ouch! Do you think Kate is hot enough to be a VS Angel? Or do you agree with Neophitou's harsh comments?
We kinda agree -- sorry Kate, but you're kinda more of a Guess model!
