Do Kate Upton's Parents Approve of Her Career? She Tells All in 'Vogue'!

Kate Upton is all wrapped in red for this brand new feature for Vogue magazine’s April 2014 issue.

Here’s what the 21-year-old model had to share with the mag:

On her unusual rise to the top: “I had no clue. I wasn’t the target audience. I grew up in Florida, where you walk around in flip-flops and jean shorts. I didn’t know the fashion world. It really happened in an organic way, wanting to do jobs that I loved.”

On what her parents think of her work: “Well, they never sit there and say, ‘Why did you do that?’ Because I always talk about things with them before I take a job. I don’t really ask for their permission. But I will say, ‘I really want to do this.’ And they understand. It’s just part of my personality, and maybe some things I took too far, but . . . I like being sexy.” I definitely have limits. But I never like to say never because I feel like I’m setting myself up. There’s a line between becoming, you know, a little cheap and cheesy versus being sexy. And I try to be very careful of that line.”
