Victoria’s Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel earns millions modeling for the lingerie giant, even earning a place on this year’s top ten Forbes list for the highest-paid supermodels.  But it wasn’t so long ago that the 22-year-old Swanepoel considered herself to be far too unattractive for a career in front of the lens. I could never imagine Candice Swanepoel not modeling, especially for a lingerie company considering how gorgeous she is.

“For a very long time I was really, really skinny – I was like that for most of my life,” Swanepoel disclosed in an interview at the Victoria’s Secret “What is Sexy?” launch in Los Angeles last week. “And it wasn’t until I was 17 that I started getting curves… I had braces, the whole lot. I was an ugly swan before.” However, some have trouble with Candice Swanepoel’s definition of ‘curves’. Just last month the VS bikini babe came under fire for being too skinny. Some even speculated that she would possibly loose her contract with Victoria’s Secret over loosing so much weight.

Candice Swanepoel seemed to have taken the controversy all in her stride – and the smiling sexy bikini babe said she can’t wait to hit the beach this summer in her favorite brand’s bikinis. “VS has lots of bra technology in their swimwear,” she said. “It’s extra cleavage on the beach!”

It’s hard to hard to believe that bikini babe Adriana Lima has been with Victoria’s Secret for over 10 years now, but it’s true, and the sweet Brazilian beauty looks like she hasn’t aged a day. Lima made an appearance yesterday at the Victoria’s Secret store in SoHo NYC, wearing a sleek navy sheath by Black Halo, to promote the brand’s sexy new bombshell collection. Erin Heatherton, another VS Angel is currently on tour with the Victoria’s Secret "Bombshell" Summer.

Adriana Lima gave up some insight, on finding the right bikini. "Number one is that you have to find something you feel comfortable in. It’s not about showing more or less, it’s about you feeling confident with what you’re wearing. I love triangle-shaped tops and bottoms, the smallest ones possible because I hate tan lines." I think Adriana Lima is one of many bikini babes that look great in "triangle shaped tops and bottoms", what do you think?

Just in the nick of time for bikini season, Khloe Kardashian has teamed up with NIVEA to battle her cellulite as part of the skin-care brand’s "Good-bye Cellulite, Hello Bikini! Challenge." The 26-year-old E! reality TV star will document her progress in fighting those pesky dimples via NIVEA’s Facebook page by using a combination of NIVEA’s Good-bye Cellulite Fast Acting Serum and Advanced Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream and implementing changes in her nutrition and fitness routine.

"Yes, I have cellulite — that’s no secret," Khloe Kardashian said in a release. "I’m so excited to partner with NIVEA to help me feel even sexier this summer. I saw the great results that my sister Kim achieved when she took the four-week Challenge a few years ago, so now I’m choosing to do something to increase my confidence and make my skin look smoother." It sounds like Khloe Kardashian is gonna be a real bikini babe when all said and done.
