We love a homegrown hero and up and coming modelling sensation Stella Maxwell is no exception.

Looking phenomenal as a Victoria's Secret Angel, she has officially become our latest girl crush. But who is she, where did she come from and most importantly how can we have her life?! 

1. She has Irish in her blood
Though Stella grew up in many different parts of the globe, she was born to Northern Irish parents. Her parents are both Belfast natives which means we are officially claiming her as Irish. 

 

2. She has lived all over the world 
The leggy blonde spent her early years in Belgium before moving to New Zealand with her Dad being a successful diplomat. She now casually manages to split her time between LA and NYC. Jealous does not even begin to cover it!

 

3. She dated Miley
Even with her modelling credentials, Stella came to everyone's attention when it was reported she was dating none other than Miley Cyrus earlier this year.

Having met through mutual friends, the pair were caught passionately kissing and even though it looks like the fling may have ended, it caused a pretty big sensation. Let’s just say we cannot wait to see who Stella dates next.

 

4. She is a Victoria's Secret Angel
Stella walked the 2014 Victoria's Secret show and officially became an Angel in 2015. She wore her wings for the first time on this week's show, which took place on Tuesday, and she looked amazing. 

 

5. She's a catwalk veteran
Though she was thrust into the limelight for being a Victoria's Secret model and her rendezvous with Miley, Stella is a seasoned model and has walked many catwalk shows in her short career.

Big names she has worked for include Marc Jacobs and Moschino. 

 

6. She has a seriously enviable squad
Apart from being effortlessly trendy, Stella Gigi Hadid amongst her BFFs, and lives in New York with her best pal and fellow model Barbara Palvin. She gives us a serious case of #squadgoals.

 

7. She takes androgynous to a new level
Beginning her career with a short, peroxide blonde pixie cut, Stella propelled herself into the fashion industry by being able to create a variety of versatile looks.

She's gorgeous, but we must admit she would make a pretty cute boy 

 

8. She’s a musician
Stella recently told V Magazine that she has finished up an album with friends in New York. Watch this space…

 

9. She dropped out of university
Before her modelling career took off, Stella studied in the University of Otago in New Zealand where she studied Psychology for one year. She left college in favour of her modelling career. Can you blame her?

When Rihanna was announced as a performer for this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, the angels and her fans were all delighted. But with only a weeks notice, RiRi pulled out of the major event and left everyone sorely disappointed. 

She did her best to kiss and make up last night though as she sent a very sweet note to the VS gang ahead of their show yesterday.

The note read, "Wish I was there with you guys. Kill it tonight. See you all next time. Love, Rihanna." The note was also accompanied by a bunch of pink balloons. 

We have a feeling Rihanna was feeling nostalgic about her 2012 performance, however, she's not leaving out the possibility of being part of the show again in the future. 

So there seems to be hope of a VS and Rihanna mash up yet!

Kendall Jenner may have stolen the show at Victoria's Secret last night, but her sisters certainly didn't make as big of an impression.

Why? Because they were banned from attending… by none other than Kendall herself.

Although the 20-year-old model had her parents, Kris and Caitlyn Jenner, in the audience to cheer her on, she refused to let her siblings come along for the star-studded event.

"I told them all to stay away," Kendall said ahead of the show, which featured performances from Selena Gomez and The Weeknd.

"It was too much pressure and I was like, 'Mom and Dad are good enough.'"

After finding out just last week that she would be walking for the lingerie brand, Kendall was keen to calm her nerves as much as possible.

"I just need the pressure off. There's enough pressure as it is," she told Extra during a backstage interview.

"I'm really nervous. It's really getting to me… but it's okay. It'll be good."

And while her big sister was celebrating a "dream come true," Kylie's evening was a little more low-key.

The teen was spotted just a few minutes' drive away in downtown Manhattan on a shopping trip while sporting a black mesh top and ripped jeans.

As for Khloé, she stayed closer to home, and was pictured in LA on her first date night with boyfriend James Harden since the hospitalisation of her ex Lamar Odom last month.

The reality star has said the postponement of her divorce from Lamar was not "for intimacy reasons" – rather, the proceedings were delayed to allow Khloé more decision-making power in Lamar's medical journey.

As for Caitlyn and Kris, they were indeed permitted to attend, and couldn't have looked prouder of their daughter.

Just look at them there, glam as ever:

We hope Kendall at least got a few supportive texts from her sisters.

Last night's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was an all-round incredible evening, with 47 stunning models walking in bejewelled bras, feathered robes and sequinned lingerie.

But as every model knows, the real fun happens backstage, where each lady donned a pink silk robe and matching bra and knickers before getting primped and preened.

So what exactly does go on behind-the-scenes? We found out, and it looks EPIC. Our 2016 goal… become a VS Angel.

There were Polaroid cameras for all:

 

Each model got a classic VS 2015 pink striped robe:

The annual Victora's Secret Fashion Show took place last night at the Lexington Street Armoury in New York.

Among the 47 women strutting down the catwalk were two very familiar newbies – Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid.

The model BFFs were both chosen last week to walk in the show for the first time, with Gigi saying it had been "a dream of mine forever." 

Kendall echoed those sentiments after last night's show:

Judging by these snaps from the high-octane event, we reckon Kendall and Gigi could be well on the way to becoming Angel material.

Kendall's first look was this mint green corset-style jacket:

Gigi grew wings (just butterfly ones though) in this dreamy turquoise look:

Surely this is the first time we've ever seen Kendall SMILE on the catwalk?

Gigi's second look with certainly a lot more edgy – look at those abs! All that boxing has paid off:

Roll on 2016!

The annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show takes place tonight in New York, and the pressure is on to fit in last-minute workouts.

Although each one of the 47 women chosen to walk in the prestigious show already has a body to die for, knowing you'll be parading down a catwalk in only lingerie is definitely a BIG workout motivator.

"It’s like being an Olympian – they have to be in peak condition," VS's creative director Sophia Neophitou-Apostolou says.

And indeed, most of the models this year have admitted to fitting in at least two workouts per day, using everything from yoga, pilates, TRX suspension, HIIT cardio, ballet barre work and boxing to achieve that lean, toned look.

And it's not just an hour or two in the mornings, either. In fact, Brazilian VS Angel Iza Goulart has been fitting in midnight workouts around her busy schedule over the last couple of weeks – and she's not the only one.

Here are a few of the models who've been hitting the gym hard of late:

Gigi Hadid
This is Gigi's first VS show, so she's obviously keen to kill it on the catwalk. She's been training with Ballet Beautiful each morning and doing intense boxing workouts with a personal trainer at Gotham Gym in the evenings.

Iza Goulart
Even watching Iza's ten second Instagram workout videos makes us tired. The things this woman can do with an exercise ball…

Behati Prinsloo
Core strengthening is key in the last few days before the show, and who better to train with than your husband? Behati posted this snap of herself and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine getting their plank on.

Kate Griegorieva
Even during yesterday's no doubt hectic dress rehearsal day, Kate Greigoreva fit in a workout at an NY Pilates studio, focusing on lengthening and stretching.

 

Adriana Lima
This lady sure knows how to work up a sweat, focusing on high-intensity cardio to get her heart pumping – twice a day, of course.

Martha Hunt

How do you find the 47 most beautiful women in the world?

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which takes place on November 10, is one of the most hotly-anticipated events of the year.

But, as with any other fashion show, there are auditions, castings and fittings – although the process is just a little more intense when it comes to VS.

First up, Casting Director Michael Pfeiffer chops down around 500 submissions to 300, with each chosen model coming in for a preliminary audition with him.

"There are two days of call backs, I try then to whittle it down to 100," he explains in a new behind-the-scenes video.

Then, just ten days before the show, the final 100 women come to the Victoria's Secret HQ to walk for VS chief Ed Razek and the show's Executive Producer Monica Mitro.

Although the 15 Victoria's Secret Angels – among them Lily Aldridge, Martha Hunt, Behati Prinsloo, Candice Swanepoel and Sara Sampaio – are all guaranteed a place in the show, every other model must audition as normal.

Last week we saw Gigi Hadid break down in tears after being offered a place in the show, and Ed says she wasn't the only one.

"You're meant to be objective about it but all the girls, you know how hard they've worked for it.

A few of them show their emotions, but they all feel that way."

"Every year it feels like it's the very first show, and one thing I try to do is work hard to I deserve to be here," says Brazilian model Iza Goulart.

As documented on her Instagram page, Iza keeps her athletic figure looking toned with an intense daily mix of TRX, Pilates and suspension workouts.

Of course, there's a reason every model dreams of being cast in a VS show.

"The minute a model starts working with Victoria's Secret, you can kinda hear the champagne popping, because once the phone rings and they ask for her, the career just kind of explodes," says VS Publicist Fred Howard.

It's been a good week for model Gigi Hadid: for one, she's secured a spot on the Victoria's Secret catwalk. Sadly, however, it seems that matters of the heart are rather less rosy for 20-year-old.

Yes, she and musician Joe Jonas have now SPLIT, according to an exclusive report on PEOPLE.com.

"Joe and Gigi’s relationship recently ended," the website reports. "Nothing serious happened… it wasn’t a dramatic break up. It was just hard to make it work with their schedules. They will definitely remain friends." 

The duo began their relationship earlier this year, making their red-carpet debut last month at a gala in New York just last month.

Ms Hadid recently co-directed a music video for 26-year-old Mr Jonas's band, DNCE.

"She had a megaphone. She was a badass," he told PEOPLE.com afterwards. 

However, last weekend Gigi attended Heidi Klum's annual Halloween party in NYC alone – a decision which raised eyebrows at the time.

Joe and Gigi began dating in the aftermath of his split from his then-girlfriend of two years, Olivia Culpo, a former Miss USA and model. Ms Hadid, meanwhile, is a former love of Aussie singer, Cody Simpson.

It's considered to be a dream job for most models, but one catwalk queen has just delivered a serious diss to the Victoria's Secret fashion show.

English model Jourdan Dunn has walked for Victoria's Secret in the last three annual shows but won't be appearing this year.

Whether it was her decision or not remains unclear, but it seems there's some bad blood between her and the lingerie giant either way.

In a hastily-deleted tweet posted last night, Jourdan wasn't exactly subtle about her dislike for the brand.

"Feeling so much better about not doing BS… sorry I mean VS now that Rihanna isn't doing it also," the 25-year-old wrote alongside a smiling emoji.

While Jourdan might be out of this year's line-up, there's no shortage of other willing candidates. Indeed, both Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid were confirmed as new recruits this week – and they can barely contain their happiness.

Kendall described her new job  as "one of my biggest dreams" in an Instagram post last night, while Gigi burst into tears when she was asked to take part:

The Victoria's Secret show has always been known as one of the most demanding gigs for a model, with former VS Angels admitting to surviving on a liquid-only diet and working out twice a day or more to achieve their enviable look.

"It’s like being an Olympian – they have to be in peak condition," VS's creative director Sophia Neophitou-Apostolou says.

As for Jourdan, she admitted last year that she simply doesn't have the motivation to hit the gym regularly.

"To be honest I hardly ever work out. Even though in my apartment I have a gym and my brother's a personal trainer. I'm just very lazy," she said.

While she might not be getting up on the VS stage this year, the model is still keeping busy – she's been involved in campaigns for Maybelline, H&M, Balmain and more over the last few weeks alone.

Just as we hear the good news that Kendall Jenner will take to the Victoria's Secret catwalk, we've some bad news to share too.

According to People, Rihanna has dropped out of the lingerie show, just a week before it is set to be recorded. 

For this years show, Rihanna was supposed to perform with The Weeknd and Selena Gomez, but has suddenly dropped out of the event because she wants to concentrate on her upcoming album.

It was reported yesterday that the singer is "worried" about her new album and fears her new tracks will disappoint fans. 

But not to worry, as another major pop star will take her place.

People reports that British singer Ellie Goulding will step in for Rihanna on the day, making Ellie a VS Fashion Show first-timer. 

And with Gigi and Kendall just announced as angels, there will be LOADS of newbies sticking together on the runway this year.

Victoria's Secret shared a video last week of the moment Gigi Hadid was asked to walk in the lingerie fashion show, and we saw just how happy the model was with her priceless reaction.

But now it has been revealed that Gigi's BFF, Kendall Jenner, will walk alongside her this year in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. 

E! News has exclusively learned from their sources that Ms Jenner has booked a spot to walk on the coveted catwalk.

The brunette beauty, who just celebrated her 20th birthday, will bare it all in the line's sexy nightwear, walking alongside Lily Aldridge, Adriana Lima, Candice Swanepoel and Stella Maxwell.

Victoria's Secret is getting fans excited for the show after it released a sneak peak of a stunning Ice Angel costume last week. 

The lingerie giant also revealed it will have performances from Rihanna, The Weeknd and Selena Gomez on the night. But now, we just can't wait to see how AH-MAZING Gigi and Kendall will look.

Lily Aldridge has a killer body, but it's certainly not just the genetic lottery that's working in her favour – she admits she has a gruelling workout regime.

The 29-year-old model has extra pressure mounting ahead of this year's Victoria's Secret show, as she is 2015's chosen Fantasy Bra model. 

Valued at a whopping €1.8m, the bra is encrusted with diamonds, sapphires and other jewels, and took designers 685 hours to put together.

Just one model is picked to wear the sparkling ensemble each year – and this year it's Lily's turn.

So how has she been prepping her body ahead of December's show? As well as eating clean, Lily says she's been fitting in at least two workouts every day.

Yup, that's a minimum of 14 workouts a week, but the model says she's happy to do it.

"I love working out, and I love when I have the time and I can really focus on it. It feels good. You have a goal and you accomplish it," she tells Cosmopolitan.

"I do a lot of Ballet Beautiful… I'll switch it around. I'll do 30 minutes of cardio, and then do [Ballet Beautiful] for an hour."

 

Monday Workout ✔

As for eating, the mum-of-one has been avoiding hidden calories by preparing all food herself – mainly lean protein and veg.

"Lots of roast chicken and vegetables, eating clean. I mostly cook my own food so I know everything that's going into it."

The stunning brunette also starts her mornings with a cup of herbal tea- even when on holidays.

While we might not have time to fit in two workouts daily, it's refreshing that Lily's routine isn't totally unachievable.

Somehow though we doubt we'd look half as good in that bra, even with all the Ballet Beautiful in the world…
