To get her long, lean figure lingerie-ready, the hot mama of two works with both Brazil Butt lift founder Leandro Carvalho and Justin Gelband, as well as practicing Pilates, Capoeira, yoga, and indoor cycling. "It you have time, it's great to try and work out three to four times a week. If I have something big like the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show or a shoot, I try to work out daily," she says.

How does this former Victoria's Secret Angel remain so down-to-earth despite all the unrealistic body pressures of Hollywood? "I don't believe in diets," she says. And don't expect her show-stopping curves to ever get in the way of her success, either. "I get so much mail from young girls who say, ‘I look up to you, you're not as skinny as everyone else, I think you're beautiful.'"
