Erin Heatherton is one beautiful angel, literally. She's a Victoria's Secret Angel. Originally from Skokie, Illinois, Erin has walked the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. Of her first Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2008, Erin had these enthusiastic remarks: "I've always watched the show since I was a little kid, and you always see all the girls together and you never think… Like how surreal to be sitting here with all these amazing, amazing beautiful women. It is an honor, but it's kind of crazy. You know, it's shocking. These girls are celebrities to me—I feel kind of little next to them. Just sitting with them eating and listening to what they have to say—they are such warm people, it's just so nice to be around it. It's nice to be in this working environment."
At the most recent 2011 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in New York City, Erin Heatherton met Leonardo DiCaprio, who she is now dating. She currently lives in The Big Apple.
Blonde and green eyeed, Erin stands tall at 5' 11". She was discovered by a scout in South Beach, Miami, while at a college campus visit, in 2006. Before fate intervened, Erin had dreams of studying biology. She then signed with the Marilyn Agency.
Erin's first major runway job later came that fall at a Diane Furstenberg show in New York. By the 2007, she was on the runway in Paris and appearing in ads for Diesel and Dolce & Gabbana. Erin Heatherton has since modeled for Shiatzy Chen, Oscar de la Renta, Michael Kors, Tommy Hilfiger, Express, among others. She has appeared on the cover of D, Grazia, GQ, Velvet, and MUSE, and doubtless will soon grace the covers of tabloids with her newest squeeze, Leonardo DiCaprio.
Despite her success as fashion runway model, Erin purports to have strong nerdy side. In fact, among the Victoria's Secret Angels, Erin Heatherton claims the title of "the sexy nerd."
