Life Story
Model scout Kevin Ellis spotted Candice shopping at a flea market in Durban South Africa when she was only 15. Now, she’s doing tons of shows and print, and is being touted as the South African Kate Moss. She supposedly hit the runway at the nubile age of 16. In 2007 Candice became the first South African model to walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. She appeared in the 2008 and 2009 shows too, as well as numerous catalogs and TV commercials for Victoria's Secret. She earns around $6,000 a day to be beautiful. No reports on whether she wants to use some of this pile of cash to throw up a website so lonely men with sore genetalia all around the globe can find out how much she likes horseback riding and reading.
At the 2009 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, Candice became one of the Victoria's Secret Angels, joining the likes of Heidi Klum, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Miranda Kerr in that exclusive club.
What indication director Kevin Ellise was we do in a Durban, South African flea market, we’ll never know. But appreciate integrity he was there because, otherwise, we might have never had the wish of ogling a hardly clad Candice Swanepoel, whom he detected there when she was only 15. Ellise had this to contend about the initial time he laid eyes upon Swanepoel: “It was like… honestly, similar to a pleasing flamingo upon foot past my shop. The approach she walked past only did it for me.” Clearly it did it for the displaying agencies too; Swanepoel was autocratic 5,000 Euros for a day’s work by the time she was 16.

Candice Swanepoel’s climb to stardom is the things angel tales have been done of. As a immature lady flourishing up in the remote South African tillage encampment Mooi River, Swanepoel’s indication aspirations were literally oceans away. Once she was discovered, Candice met with the conduct of a internal displaying group who snapped a little Polaroids and sent them out to Select, a London group which represents tip bent similar to Sienna Miller and Helena Christensen. Within twenty-five mins of reception the Polaroids, Select requested Candice’s participation in London immediately.
