6. She Featured On The Cover Of Vanity Fair's 100th Anniversary Edition
Vanity Fair, as you're not doubt aware, is one of America's most famous magazines - an institution of a publication if ever there was one. You don't get on the cover of Vanity Fair for just being pretty, then. And you definitely don't make it onto the cover of the 100th Anniversary Edition unless you're big freakin' news. Kate Upton is big freakin' news. That's right: either because she's the "It" girl of the moment, or in a cynical attempt to sell as many copies as possible by throwing a gorgeous woman on the cover, Vanity Fair opted to place Kate Upton front and centre on the 100th Anniversary Issue - a definitive sign that, yes, this gal had arrived. Looking stunning in Marilyn Monroe styled getup, it's hard to imagine anybody better suited to the task.
