Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Hair

The drop dead gorgeous Rosie Alice Huntington-Whiteley (born 18 April 1987) is a British model and actress.  She is famous for her long lush tresses which cascade down to the middle of her back in soft shiny panels of silken folds.

She is best known for modeling for Victoria's Secret and for replacing Megan Fox as the lead female character in the upcoming film "Transformers: Dark of the Moon", part of the Transformers franchise.

Early life

Besides her killer body and shimmering strands her lush full lips are considered to be one of her most famous assets.  At the age of 13 she was voted Girl Most Likely To Become A Supermodel.In 2003, while studying at Tavistock College, she was discovered by Profile Model Management while seeking internships with several London based modeling agencies. Her first gig in front of the camera was at 16, posing for a Levi's commercial.

She spent all of her first check on a Ford Ka, even though she couldn't drive, thinking it would be the one and only time she would ever get paid for modeling.   Of course Rosie was seriously mistaken.  Her modeling career has skyrocketed and is sizzling.
