Kate Upton

Kate Upton is like that girl next door you wish you grew up with.  She’s the quintessential all-American blond bombshell – young, gorgeous, fun –  and it’s a combination of these traits that’s led Kate to a meteoric rise in popularity.  She has over a million Twitter followers, she’s graced the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue two years in a row, and she’s appeared in a huge number of ads, including Carls Jr., Mercedes-Benz and Skull Candy. As demonstrated in these photos by the famed Terry Richardson, it’s easy to see why.  Check out the photo gallery to see what makes Kate so great.
