Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley initially struggled to cope with fame.

The 26-year-old star was discovered by Profile Model Management almost 10 years ago and was then catapulted to fame after landing a number of prestigious campaigns with companies such as Burberry and being made a Victoria's Secret Angel.

Rosie, 26, enjoyed her success but admits she found the huge attention in her actions and private life hard to cope with.

She told Britain's Grazia magazine: "The first few years of modelling were tough but now it's different. I have to take into consideration that it's [my actions] going to be all over the papers. Now I'm at a point where I don't have to be uncomfortable - and I certainly don't need to be."

The blonde beauty - who is in a relationship with Jason Statham - would do things differently now as she has learnt how to play fame game over the last few years.

She added: "When I started I was a lot more carefree. There was less attention focused on me. There are things I wouldn't do now, certain environments I wouldn't put myself in. I was a bit wilder in my late teens."
