Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was an “Ugly Betty” as a teenager

By Andrea Petrou on November 23rd, 2011

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was an “Ugly Betty” as a teenager.

The 24-year-old British beauty is widely considered to be one of the sexiest women in the world but when she was growing up she admits she resembled the spectacle and brace wearing character Betty Suarez from the TV series.

Speaking in the new issue of America’s Harper’s Bazaar magazine, she said: “I was a bit of an Ugly Betty when I was 15.”

Rosie revealed she would arrive at castings “in trainers, with braids, a ton of make-up, plucked eyebrows and I had braces”.

The catwalk star – who is dating Jason Statham – recently made the transition from modelling to acting with a main role in ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ and she admits she initially found it difficult to adjust to the movie business.

She said: “It’s interesting coming from modelling, where women rule the industry, into one where there are so few great female parts and the competition is so much higher.”

Rosie is very proud of her first screen role, but she admits she still takes immense satisfaction from being a Victoria’s Secret Angel, because being a face for the underwear giant is one of the biggest jobs in modelling.

She said: “It’s still such a huge thing for a model. People kind of laugh about it and think it’s irrelevant, but I don’t know a girl in the world who would put those wings on and not feel, just for a split second, very special.”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s Christian Louboutin shoes make her “feel like a woman”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s Christian Louboutin shoes make her “feel like a woman”.

The Victoria’s Secret model thinks it is “really worth” saving up for a pair of the red-lacquered sole footwear because they will automatically make girls appear “very sexy”.

She said: “I feel they make you look very sexy, the cuts are beautiful; the lines, the colours the embellishments.

“I think he managed to capture something so special for women, every girl should be lucky enough to have them. If you can save up for a pair put away a dollar a week. It’s worth it girls. It is really worth it.”

The ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ actress – who topped both FHM’s Sexiest Women List and Maxim’s Hot 100 List earlier this year – has coped well since becoming famous and even manages to “avoid” the attention that comes from living a showbiz lifestyle when she needs to.

The 24-year-old stunner added to Fox411′s Pop Tarts: “I am very lucky in my life so I don’t wish for anything I don’t have, and I actually manage to get around just fine. I’m just fine.

“It’s not too much, I manage to avoid it when it’s necessary, but I’m very thankful for everything.”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley keeps her figure thanks to three personal trainers

By Andrea Petrou on October 3rd, 2011

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has three personal trainers.

The British beauty – who is the face of Burberry Body – admits she needs to always be in the gym to maintain her trim physique, and has trainers in all three cities in which she works.

She said: “It takes lots and lots of hard work. I have three personal trainers – James Duigan in London, Jason Walsh in Los Angeles and my friend Justin in New York. That means there’s no excuse not to be in the gym wherever I go.”

In addition to a strict exercise regime, the 24-year-old model also controls what she eats, and tries to put few carbohydrates into her body.

She added to Britain’s Grazia magazine: “Everything starts with exercise. Then you want to look after yourself and put good food in your body.

“I have a really good response when I cut out carbs so that’s something I always do before a great event. I eat a high-protein diet and lots of greens.”

By Elisabeth on September 20th, 2011

Having gone from the signature of chavs, Burberry’s reputation has blossomed over the recent years and has grown to become the hottest ticket of the London Fashion Week. Burberry’s catwalk shows normally attracts the who’s who of fashion, music and celeb land; set in beautiful surroundings in the middle of Hyde Park the spring/summer 2012 Burberry Catwalk was no exception: Mario Testino, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Anna Wintour, Kanye West, Gemma Arterton, Andy Murray, Rachel Zoe, Poppy Delevigne, Jaquetta Wheeler.

Below is a selection of the celebrities – dressed in Burberry of course – as they were photographed on their way in to the venue. Oh yeah, and you can check out the spring/summer 2012 collection here!

Update: Fashion Faces of AW 11

By shinychris on August 31st, 2011

The fashion department’s been busy recruiting some new meat, namely the high-street players. We bring you a round-up of pretty visages to look out for.

Marks & Spencer are going all out, it seems, for their Autumn campaign. According to the Telegraph, Transformers star Rosie-Huntington Whiteley will front M&S’s Autumn campaign alongside David Gandy and Ryan Reynolds. Yes you read right, Ryan Reynolds for Marks & Spencer! It’s a superstar line-up fit for the store’s high-end line called Autograph. The ad may risk lacking credibility mind you. Rosie comes fresh from a stint with Burberry, David from D&G. Meanwhile,  it’s hard to believe Ryan (voted the Sexiest Man Alive no less) even knew what an M&S was before he was cast, being Canadian and, well…being Ryan Reynolds.

Next up we have supermodel Gisele Bundchen, a Victoria’s Secret gal like Rosie, looking fantastic for Esprit Fall/Winter 2011. Not that we need a reason why, she’s a Brazilian beaut, but nonetheless she was picked because ‘she embodies easy elegance, charisma and naturalness’ befitting of the brand’s spirit. Oh that she does.

Alexa Chung, ever the restless fashionista, will be the star of Vero Moda. She’s hard to keep track of, now unseen, now stateside with her own TV show, now breaking up with Alex Turner. Now though, she’ll front Vero Moda’s AW campaign, which was Gisele Bundchen’s role formerlyby the by (a lot of links amongst celebs here!). It’s safe to say any retailer fortunate enough to bag Alexa for their campaign is guaranteed a nice surge in business. The campaign launches in November.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley feels more confident when she has a suntan

By Andrea Petrou on July 6th, 2011

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley feels more confident when she has a suntan.

The model-and-actress likes her skin to be sunkissed but isn’t a fan of sunbathing bathing or sunbeds so uses lots of bronzing powder and fake tan as it’s the safest option.

She said: “I love BeneFit’s Hoola bronzing powder. More women have discovered that they look great with a tan and they also look and feel sexier. It’s also much healthier and safer than going in the sun and using sunbeds. Looking after your skin has become more fashionable.

“I love to be tanned before I go to awards ceremonies and parties. Self-tanning is the way forward – especially for me. As a Victoria’s Secret model, I like to be tanned when I shoot lingerie. It gives me a confidence boost, I feel healthy and of course I look great. The tan makes your skin glow on camera.”

As well as being tanned, Rosie always loves wearing her leather trousers.

The ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ star told Britain’s OK! magazine: “I couldn’t live without my Les Chiffoniers leather trousers, I live in them. I wear them for shopping, dinner and nights out.”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is obsessed with junk food despite her Victoria Secrets model figure

By Andrea Petrou on June 16th, 2011

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is obsessed with junk food.

The Victoria’s Secret model – who is famed for her curvaceous figure – is missing British cuisine since relocating to the US and loves eating things which are “really, really bad” for her.

She told Maxim magazine: “I love eating really, really bad things, like roast dinners and chocolate bread and butter pudding.

“It’s my soul, England. I miss the people, the culture, the food.

“I find it strange that people say English food is bad. To me, it’s delicious. I’ve never really considered it but I was thinking the other day that maybe it’s strange to have beans on toast for breakfast.”

Although the stunning 24-year-old beauty has never worried about her weight she has previously revealed she was advised to work out if she wanted to succeed in her chosen career.

She said: “I can’t remember a time where I really battled with my body, but I can remember being asked to lose weight and battling with the advice.

“It hurt me. Especially as my baby fat naturally melted away as I got older.

“When I started out, I was definitely heavier. I was quite voluptuous in fact. I had a real baby face and baby fat.

“But I was a baby! I was told I had to get into better shape, but I’m quite stubborn so I didn’t.”
