Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has really gotten huge lately, (And of course, we are not talking about her Victoria’s Secret body!) . The twenty-four year old model can now add actress to her ever expanding resume. The stunning English model (you might know her from her stint as a Victoria’s Secret angel) is now the new face (and figure) of Burberry Body. She also joined the cast of the Transformers trilogy hen she was asked to appear as a main character in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley began modeling lingerie for Victoria’s Secret in 2006, but for two years remained unknown in the fashion industry; that is until Burberry discovered her in 2008 and decided to use her to replace Agyness Deyn for their 2008 Fall/Winter campaign. Shortly after appearing in Burberry’s campaign, she was on her first British Vogue cover, which was featuring upcoming British models. In 2009, her star power blew up even more when she got a whole slew of huge campaigns, such as: the Karen Millen Spring/Summer campaign, Gidiva chocolate campaign, and Miss Sixty. 2009 is also the year she won the prestigious Elle “Model of the Year” award, and officially became a Victoria’s Secret Angel. 2009 was a very busy year for Miss Huntington-Whiteley.

2010 and 2011 were no different for Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. She began 2010 by being photographed nude by the famous Terry Richardson, for the Pirelli Calendar. Shortly afterwards, Rosie hit the runway for Prada and Giles Deacon. In mid-2010 she collaborated with Vogue.com to start a “Today I’m Wearing” feature. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley could not be stopped! At the close of 2010, fashion photographer Rankin even made a whole book devoted to Rosie entitled “Ten Times Rosie;” stating that she put diversity back into fashion. For the last ten years, runways and magazines had been filled with super emaciated, androgynous models. Huntington-Whiteley was a nice, fresh change, with her curves and her perfect, girly face.

Just when people thought Rosie Huntington-Whiteley couldn’t take her career any further, she decided to add the big screen to her ever expanding resume. In 2010 she was recruited to join the cast of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, playing a new character, Carly Spencer. There were definitely doubters of her ability, and devout Megan Fox fans who didn’t want to see another pretty face join the cast; but upon it’s release all of the nay-sayers quickly shut up. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was amazing in the movie. She was beautiful, confident, and a natural at acting. The film was box office gold and it is assumed that there will be more acting in Rosie’s future.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has dated a few LUCKY men on and off, but since April 2010 she has been with action star Jason Statham. The pair are fairly low key and enjoy spending quality time together both in New York and in London (where Rosie has homes). As of July 2011, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley ranked number 15 on “The Money Girls” list and was number 3 in the “20 Top Sexiest Models” list. Also she was ranked number 1 on Maxim’s “Hot 100″ list, and also FHM voted her “The World’s Sexiest Woman”. Quite a slew of honors for such a young lady! There is no doubt that Rose will continue to grow and flourish. We can only look on to find out what she will do and where she will go next!
