Model

The Resume

    (November 7, 1988- )
    Born in Stockholm, Sweden
    Victoria’s Secret Angel (2011– )
    5 ft 9½ in (1,77 m)
    Representing agencies include Mikas, Iconic Management, and multiple branches of IMG Models

Why she might be annoying:

    She regards herself as fairly introverted, ‘like they have to, like, drag me out to do things’ (and in the next breath she answers, ‘but I’m always up for anything’).
    She lists her cousin’s modeling background as the primary reason her father – secretly – sent snapshots of her to various modeling agencies.
    As the captain of her high school basketball team – her other love – she set pretty poor standards by constantly missing practices.
    Her Twitter account handle (@hoskelsa) shares its name with a fansite… not that it’s exactly a common name.
    She manages to make even the grayest, dowdiest, dirtiest outfits look downright runway-worthy!
    She is your otherwise standard blue-eyed blonde.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Her younger cousin Alice Herbst won the second cycle of Top Model Sverige (2012).
    It took her four years and her mid-20s to achieve her Angel wings.
    She believes in a wildly diverse diet (for example, bacon and eggs, tomato panini with lentil soup, iced coffee, fried cheese and chicken skewers, and sweet potato fries).
    Unlike many of her counterparts, she opted to complete her education – and continue her pursuit of basketball – before going into modeling.
    She regards the language as her main motivation for working in H&M Lingerie campaigns (Hennes & Mauritz AB is Swedish, after all).
    She lists ‘The Whistleblower’ as her inspiration for supporting FAIR Girls, an anti-human-traffic organization.
