Miranda Kerr may be very much in love with A-list actor Orlando Bloom, but it turns out that the Victoria’s Secret Angel wouldn’t mind having a dinner date with another British heartthrob.

“I’ve always had a big crush on Prince William since I was a little girl,” Kerr told Pop Tarts recently at the Victoria’s Secret Store in The Grove in Los Angeles.

We asked Kerr what must one do to look as good as a girl who makes millions legging it in lingerie for the VS label.

“I drink lots of water and get as much sleep as possible,” Kerr explained. “I recommend drinking fresh, organic green juices and doing lots of yoga.”

The 26-year-old Australian native has also embraced a form of Japanese Buddhism – Nichiren Buddhism – which, despite her angel wings, keeps her feet flat on the floor.

“I don’t like to talk too much about it, but what I will say is that it is very grounding and really centering,” she said.

But for those of you who will never achieve her physique (ie: about 99.99% of us), don’t despair! The November airing of the famed fashion show on CBS drew in an average of 8.3 million viewers, but it seems Americans prefer watching larger folks pop pounds.

According to the Nielsen TV ratings, “The Biggest Loser” won the time slot, with 10.3 million tuning in.

So have another donut and relax. You can be a TV star, too.

This is the latest sexy Victoria’s Secret that could well give men a few stocking filler ideas for their ladies this Christmas.

It features a plethora of the lingerie firm’s stunning models, including Australian temptress Miranda Kerr, cavorting around in their underwear.

The ad is set to a heavy metal music and see the ‘Angels’ walking in slow motion across a range of backdrops, including a barren landscape with hovering helicopters.

In other shots one of the models is seen crawling across a snooker table and the ad also features motorcycles, explosions and a lush mansion.

The clip is the handiwork of Transformers director Michael Bay, who has done commercials for the fashion brand in the past.
It was aired for the first time during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show which was shown on December 1 on America network CBS.

The show was filmed last month and saw veteran Victoria’s Secret model Heidi Klum make a surprise return to the catwalk just five weeks after giving birth.

Klum was only supposed to be hosting the event, but delighted the audience by making one strut down the runway, albeit in less revealing gear than her colleagues.

Check out the video clip below:

She’s been a Victoria’s Secret Angel for two years now and here’s proof that Miranda Kerr is still performing her duties to perfection.

The 26-year-old Australian has stripped down to her underwear again to model the latest lingerie line for the brand’s autumn 2009 catalogue.

In one pose, the model looks seductively away from the camera as she dons a pink and gold threaded two-piece with an ivory lace scarf draped around her back.

And in another shot, Miranda, who dates actor Orlando Bloom, goes topless, slipping into a pink G-string complete with a flower-shaped accessory sewn on at the back.

Keeping her profile high means endless fashion shoots and yesterday she was spotted in France having more photographs taken for Victoria’s Secret.

She was seen splashing around in the sea on Saint Barthelemy island as she modelled a series of bikinis and other revealing outfits.

Miranda has recently denied reports she has lost weight to fit into the super-skinny catwalk clothes.

She said: ‘I am the same weight and measurements I have maintained for more than three years.

‘I am conscious of not only maintaining but promoting a healthy lifestyle and I wouldn’t be able to sustain the hectic nature of my modelling commitments if I wasn’t 100 per cent committed to feeding my body the food, vitamins and minerals it needs.’

Today, the 26-year-old, who dates British actor Orlando Bloom, spoke out after speculation that she had shed pounds in order to fit into the tiny sample-size clothes at the Balenciaga fashion show in Paris two weeks ago.

She blamed the poses she had been forced to adopt for the shots, and insisted that a healthy lifestyle was essential in order for her to meet the demands of her hectic lifestyle.

‘The exaggerated poses for the shoot have made me appear thinner than normal from behind, but I am the same weight and measurements I have maintained for more than three years,’ she told Grazia Australia.

‘I am conscious of not only maintaining but promoting a healthy lifestyle and I wouldn’t be able to sustain the hectic nature of my modelling commitments if I wasn’t 100 per cent committed to feeding my body the food, vitamins and minerals it needs.’

Mark Vassallo, who styled the shoot for the Australian edition of the weekly fashion title, echoed Miranda’s comments.

‘She’s as healthy as anything. High fashion models are a special breed. They have long legs and they’re very narrow through the body – that allows clothes to hang beautifully.

‘Miranda has no problem with her body at all.’

Pretty Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr has become famous for her girl next door looks and slim but curvaceous figure.

But it seems her ambition to make the usually impossible leap from commercial modelling to fairytale world of couture has seen her dramatically drop weight to make the transition.

The former Maybelline model – the world’s tenth highest earning model – has been much in demand for the lingerie brand, and for swimwear shoots for magazines such as Sports Illustrated.

But the 26-year-old Australian cut a distinctly emaciated on a fashion shoot for magazine Grazia in Sydney.

From the back she looked virtually unrecognisable as she posed in a tightly laced corset on the rooftop of the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Miranda’s ribs protruded, and her skin was tightly stretched across her bony back. Her thin arms also looked extremely sinewy.
The reason for the Australian’s sudden weight loss is not exactly hard to fathom.

It seems her ambitions to do high fashion modelling were realised earlier this month she made an appearance on the catwalk for Balenciaga, the fashion world’s coolest label right now.
