Kate Upton is set to receive the coveted Model of the Year award at the 10th Annual Style Awards in New York this week, the event that kicks off New York Fashion Week
From humble beginnings at a sports game to gracing
the cover of ‘Vogue’ we take a look at the 11 reasons why we love the
21-year-old all-American girl.

1. Her utterly gorgeous figure.
Kate’s ample (natural) cleavage earned her some pretty harsh comments from lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret. In 2012, casting agent Sophia Neophitou labelled Kate as nothing more than a glamour model – “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.” Hmmm, that hair and those curves don’t seem to have hurt her career too much…
2. It didn’t stop her from landing FOUR Vogue covers in the US, Italy, the UK and most recently, Brazil.
Kate Upton's various Vogue covers3. She’s honest about what she eats.
We’re pretty sick of hearing about stick-thin models and actresses who claim they stuff their faces with pizza and ice cream. Kate keeps it real about her healthy eating, admitting to Vogue that as much as she’d like to she can’t scoff burgers all day, she doesn't.

Kate’s curves have singled her out as one of the few models around with a realistic figure, which she embraces. "Those are the comments that really make me want to continue doing what I do,” she told British Vogue. “It's really motivating to know that I'm helping people look at their life in a healthy way, just by living my life by example."

Not since Cindy Crawford have we been so tempted to draw on our own freckle.

After her infamous Sports Illustrated cover, Kate admitted that she ‘felt terrible about myself for a solid month’, receiving a lot of unwanted attention from men. "Every single guy I met was either married or about to be married, and I felt like I was their bachelor present or something,” she told Elle. “I'm not a toy, I'm a human. I'm not here to be used. I am a grown woman, and you need to figure your s--t out."
Kate Upton for Accessorize8. She’s a talented equestrian.
As a teenager, Kate won three American Paint Horse Association championships. She’s still a horse lover, frequently posting snaps of her riding on Twitter.
Kate Upton for US Vogue9. She loves hanging out with her family.
When she’s not jet-setting around the world, Kate chills out with her two sisters Laura and Christie and brother David.

From doing the Dougie to narrowly avoiding a nip slip during the Cat Daddy, millions of us love to watch this girl dance.
