Washington, Oct 24 (ANI): Kate Upton has revealed that she is happy to be in a position where she can set a realistic example for curvy young women.
The busty blonde, who shot to fame after landing the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine's Swimsuit Issue, confessed that would never go on a diet and starve herself to match the industry's standards.
"When I lived in Florida, the swimsuit was the key wardrobe piece. I lived 10 minutes from the beach, but I never sat there and said, 'I want to be every man's fantasy.' It wasn't a big deal to be in a bathing suit. Now, whenever girls come up to me saying they're happy to see I am confident about my body, it makes me feel good that I am contributing in a way among people my age, people who could be my friends," Contactmusic quoted Upton as telling Vogue magazine.
The 20-year-old model just hopes to inspire girls to be confident in their own skin.
"I am excited to be in a place where I can be a good example... I think it's important to look at magazines and think a healthy lifestyle is attainable. Now that the fashion industry likes the idea of me, I'm happy if I can have an influence," she said.
"I'm sure every girl can relate. You go shopping and you're not the same size in every brand - some look good on you and others don't," she added. (ANI)
