Earlier this year, Victoria’s Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley won a role in the third Transformers movie. Director Michael Bay recently talked to Collider.com about his decision to cast a model instead of an actress in the film. Bay said: ”I would never hire a model. It wouldn’t cross my mind really to be an actress. I’ve shot plenty of the Victoria’s Secret stuff and they’ve been good clients of mine for years. She was very spunky and she has this cute English accent. She has a great head on her shoulders in terms of smart, intelligent, and well-spoken. And I just said to her ‘Have you ever been interested in being an actress?’ and she goes ‘Yeah.’”
As it turns out, Rosie had plenty of competition. “Literally when we were looking for this role there were 500 women that had auditioned around the world. We had casting people from France and London and on and on.”

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld is a lucky girl: she is the daughter of super-stylish Carine Roitfeld, she is the face of Tom Ford’s Black Orchid fragrance, and she recently interviewed Tom Ford for V Magazine and posed in Ford’s new womenswear line for a series of self-portraits. In the interview, Restoin-Roitfeld asks Ford why he decided that this was the season to return to fashion. “I told myself that I would not come back to ?women’s fashion until I felt I had something new to say. I feel that fashion has become too serious and that the actual customer’s needs have not really been addressed. Fashion needs to make one happy. It is a luxury and should enhance one’s quality of life,” replied Ford.
Restoin-Roitfeld also quizzed Ford on a more pressing issue: his New Year’s resolutions. “I don’t have one. I believe in living life the way that you want to live it every day, and if you do that you don’t really need to have New Year’s resolutions,” said Ford. Check out more from the feature at VMagazine.com.
