Kate Upton says Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is 'a snoozefest,' talks unretouched photos

Kate Upton is fed up with seeing the same types of bodies on the runway.

The model opened up on "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen" about what she thinks Victoria's Secret has gotten wrong, as well as her motivation for posing for unretouched photos for Health magazine.

"What was your reaction to the rumors that Victoria's Secret may not have a fashion show this year?" a caller asked Upton on the Bravo show Sunday.

Upton responded the fashion company is due for a wake-up call.

"You know what, we're sick of seeing the same body type," the 27-year-old said. "You have to be body inclusive now. Every woman needs to be represented. Otherwise it's a snoozefest."

Les Wexner, CEO of L Brands, the parent company of the lingerie brand, revealed in May this year's fashion show would not be broadcast on network television. The news of a change-up comes after the show hit a record low in ratings last year. The brand also came under fire in November 2018 after its chief marketing officer made comments stating transgender models shouldn't be cast in the show. Since then, Victoria's Secret cast their first openly transgender model Valentina Sampaio, 22, in their new Pink campaign, which will be released later this month.

While on the Bravo program, Upton also opened up about her decision to have her photos in Health magazine's September issue published without retouching.

"It was a really hard decision to make because it was months after I gave birth to my little baby girl (9-month-old Genevieve Upton Verlander), but it was really important, because we're surrounded by so much retouching and social media and filters, and we've kind of lost touch of what's real and what's not real," the cover star said. "For me, this was a big step to put out a good image of being real and real expectations of what it's like after birth."
