Kate Upton is burning up the internet after her barely there Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover.
Before she was a "supermodel," however, she was just an ordinary model, doing ads.
She appeared in the Victoria's Secret catalog and also shot a forgettable online ad for Sobe the water and tea brand.
Currently, she's about to star in a sexy new ad for the Hardee's/Carl's Jr burger chain, writhing around on a car at a drive-in while eating a Southwest Patty Melt. The ad agency behind that campaign is 72andSunny.
2010: Upton modeled for bag designer Dooney & Bourke—fully clothed.

Garage clothing: Her modeling work for this small chain appears to have all but disappeared from the web.

She was in the Guess campaign a year ago—hard to believe she was unknown at the time.
