Get to Know...Victoria's Secret Rising Stars

Transcript

LINDSAY ELLINGSON:
My name is Lindsay Ellingson.

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY:
Rosie Huntington.

CANDICE SWANEPOEL:
Candice.

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY:
I am a model.

CANDICE SWANEPOEL:
I'm little bit nervous for the show.

LINDSAY ELLINGSON:
I'm so excited, I can't wait. I'm the cowgirl. It's definitely an honor to be in the show. I used to watch like when I was in high school and never ever thought I'd be here.

CANDICE SWANEPOEL:
I was a ballet dancer growing up and that's what I was convinced I would be. I was very skinny, braces, so I never thought I would be a model.

LINDSAY ELLINGSON:
I was definitely like so nerdy. And really all I did was dance and study.

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY:
Well, I fell into modeling because I wanted to work in fashion. I wanted to do styling or make up, I ended up getting picked up to be a model instead during my work experience.

CANDICE SWANEPOEL:
I grew up on a farm in South Africa and I started there and they sent me to Europe. It's kind of been a blur since then, it happened all so fast.

LINDSAY ELLINGSON:
I was going to school in San Diego and I just got scouted by my agent and then I pretty much just flew straight to Paris and like lived there for a year. It's kind of crazy.

Well, it definitely takes a lot of confidence to walk down that runway in your bra and underwear.

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY:
I don't even think when I'm walking down the runway. I don't really breathe either.

CANDICE SWANEPOEL:
I don't know if it's obvious, but I am extremely shy.

LINDSAY ELLINGSON:
But I have one little trick and what I do is before I go on the runway, I just dance. It seriously like relieves all of your stress. I just move around, I just dance and then I totally forget about what I'm actually doing, I forget what I'm wearing and I just walk out there and have fun. (LAUGH)

ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY:
It's an exciting yet crazy job and you get to travel the world and meet lots of people and wear beautiful clothes. But it can be pretty stressful and it can be hard work at times but I, uh, I do enjoy it. There's nothing else like this.

Hi, my name is Rosie.

CANDICE SWANEPOEL:
I'm Candice Swanepoel.

LINDSAY ELLINGSON:
My name is Lindsay and you're watching Modelinia.
