"I'm very proud of it because I work very hard," she said at the Victoria's Secret What is Sexy? 2011 National Bombshell Summer Tour launch party. "There are a lot of sacrifices involved."

The job is not all glitz and glamour for the gorgeous 29-year-old. "We work over 12 hours sometimes. We travel a lot and yes we do go to beautiful places but we don't get time to look around because we're working all day."
