Not just a pretty face, then: Kate Upton was also a champion equestrian in her youth, which translates as "she was good at horses" to you regular folks. Yes, Upton "showed" (that means she entered the competition on a horse, okay?) at the American Paint Horse Association and competed at a national level, which is probably a lot more impressive if you know about horse-riding. She also won three Reserve World Championships, which is definitely good, and a whole bunch of other stuff - including being named "13 and Under Reserve All-Around Champion." She used two horses in competition: Roanie Pony and Zipper. Cute.
