Um, Sorry, What?! Here’s How Many Calories A VS Model Eats A Day In Preparation For A Show
We'll bet it's nowhere near as restrictive as you think.
It’s surely a truth universally acknowledge that Victoria’s Secret models are flawless human beings, and you’d be forgiven for assuming they get by on lettuce and green juices.
But, putting paid to the whole having to starve yourself to be skinny myth, VS model Taylor Hill told The Times that actually her and her Victoria’s Secret pals eat a whole lot more calories than people realise.
Like a LOT more.
“I eat 3,000 calories a day before the VS show. Three thousand! There’s no way you look like that and don’t eat. You will die,” she explained.
“Victoria’s Secret girls are like athletes. We’re like Olympians. We’re strong.”
3,000? Um, jealous!
It makes sense, of course. Strong bodies need a healthy dose of calories to keep the metabolism going and given the super intensive training the models go through down the gym, it’s no wonder they need all that extra fuel.
We don’t know about you, but we’re taking notes and having seconds at dinner tonight.
