Blonde bombshell Kate Upton has graced the cover of multiple magazines and even has the coveted title of being classified as a Sports Illustrated cover model favorite. However, everyone can’t be a fan of the popular model, and by everyone I mean legendary Carol Alt. Supermodel Alt sat down with a representative from HuffPost Live on February 25th where she explained her own views regarding 21-year-old Upton’s success as a model and an actress with what many could describe as some sort of bewilderment. “I like Kate [Upton], she’s a pretty girl, but all the girls are nice and all the girls are pretty,” Alt said.

Fifty-three-year-old Alt attempted to rationalize her perception regarding the mystifying level of attention that Kate Upton receives. “What I don’t understand with Kate [Upton] is what’s all the hullaballoo. There are many covers of Sports Illustrated — one girl was just wearing a bottom, no top. I don’t get what all the hullabaloo is. I think what it is is that in this moment there’s just so much social media and that’s why she’s had more word of mouth than anybody.”

Still, many fans eagerly follow Upton’s photo shoots and consider the model to be one-of-a-kind. Kate Upton has been able to remain at the forefront of public attention, which allows for her fans to follow her various projects. The model has utilized multiple social media platforms in order to reach her broad fan base.
