I’m very confident in my body- Kate Upton
Everyone knows she's sexy, but who could have guessed she was funny and ruthless to boot?
FOX411's Celebrity of the Year 2012 Kate Upton took to Twitter during Monday night's BCS title game, in which Notre Dame was shellacked by Alabama 42-14, to take a swing at her ex-boyfriend, New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez.
As it became apparent that the Fighting Irish were no match for the Crimson Tide, Upton wrote:
"Its okay Notre Dame this happened to the Jets every week."
The New York Jets went 6-10 in their 2012-13 season, and Sanchez had his worst season ever, highlighted by a play known now as the "buttfumble" in which he ran head first into the backside of an offensive lineman and fumbled the football, which was run back for a touchdown.
Upton, meanwhile, saw her star rise to unimagined heights, capped by being named, yes, FOX411's Celebrity of the Year.
Let us begin Upton's tale waaay back in January 2012, when she was just another bikini model who had something of a viral video hit with her unselfconscious interpretation of doing the “Dougie”while in the audience with friends at a Los Angeles Clippers game.
With her infectious laugh and sexy, fun-loving attitude, the minute-long video raked up almost 10 million hits on YouTube and was declared a “cinema verité classic gone viral” by Vogue magazine.
“I’ve been modeling for almost five years now, and so being shy kind of went out the door a while ago,” Upton told FOX411 in an exclusive interview then. “I’m very confident in my body.”
No kidding.
Naturally, the world demanded to see more of the Michigan native’s dance skills, which she happily obliged by busting out a few moves while shooting the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in Australia. The GIF immediately went viral, and rumors swirled that Upton would land the coveted cover.
