Alessandra Ambrosio Tells Us Why She Loves Her Body
December 16, 2009 in Alessandra Ambrosio, Hollywood Moms, Hot Models by Versus
Because you guys seemed to like Marisa’s little video on why she loves her body, here’s another famous Victoria’s Secret Angel for you: Alessandra Ambrosio on why she loves her modelesque figure!
Check out the video and tell us what you think!
She’s a little too skinny for my liking, but she’s a beautiful woman and I love how her daughter was brought up a few times in a reason as to why she loves her body and its capabilities just put her in my good books.
I agree with Steph (same name, cool! haha) about how mentioning her daughter so much puts her on my good list. I hear that so many times from other women about how they appreciate their body so much more after childbirth, so it’s great that she feels the same!
I like that she loves her body because of what it gives to her: like she can play piano and play with her daughter…
she’s so pretty. I like that she chose her hands as her favorite feature, she doesn’t seem as superficial as some other models…
I doubt they are, but that was cute!
Ale seems so lovely.. Alot of VS models do
Well I would love my body too if it could give me 10 million dollars per year. I would adore it actually
so you hate your body because it doesn’t make money for you???
oh, give her a break.
You know what a joke is, right?
lol – i liked what you said…it’s amazing how quickly people will get all sanctimonious…
hahah tottally…i mean i lovee my body but it doesnt pay the rent hahaha jk!! ppl its a joke dnt take it so seriolsly
aless is soooo hott shes my girl crush right next to izabel.
I’m starting to love her
she’s such a sweet mom and woman
wow!she looks like a sween and nice person,and not stupid at all!
this is so great;
and i love that she said her hands and not her bobs or but…
i wonder what you need to eat and wich sport to do,to be like a VS model?
She seems quite dumb… well, she is payed for her body not her brains so who cares. And somehow in this video she doesn’t look so skinny as usual. And that’s a good thing, in case anyone’s wondering.
and how is she dumb?
I love my hands because they can grab lots of snacks! lol Sorry, but she sounds like an idiot to me.
In a way that is not smart. geeze, the questions people will ask
I think what bigvinamac was really asking was how it is you know that she is dumb, other than observing her in the media, which probably does not give the clearest indication of her intellect.
i met her at a victoria’s secret perfume launch in nyc. she is absolutely stunning and was so warm and friendly. i asked her about her daughter and her face lit up and she was so happy to talk about how big she is getting, etc. she is by far the most beautiful vs model there is — inside and out.
and lanna, there is no doubt that she eats very healthy and she exercises… that’s what you need to do to be a vs model. oh, and be tall.
I love how people that comment on these sites always claim they’ve met celebrities. “Oh I met her when I was walking down the street and we had lunch and talked for hours!” riiiiiiiight.
because i actually did. october 14 was the launch of ‘velvet’ perfume and she was at the vs store signing autographs for a meet and greet. i happen to work 8 blocks from the vs where she was signing so i went.
no one said anything about walking and talking and grabbing lunch with her, so there’s no need to be a bitch.

nice!
Ahaha now “uggs” must feel dumb! I happen to live in NYC as well and have likewise met many celebs at in-store events (especially during Fashion Week) and even on the Subway. I guess some people are just jealous.
I think “uggs” you must live in a cave (or middle america) I just met Gary Oldman today on the street in LA and walked a block with him chatting for a brief minute! Celebs are abundant in NY and LA (and other metropolitan cities) and contrary to popular belief they are capable of human activities such as talking, crazy huh?
AHAHA et moi — i love the cave/middle america joke, very clever
ps. gary oldman, that’s awesome!
Ummm…actually I live in a fairly large city and see celebrities all the time but I’m not psychotic enough to think that they’re my new best friend because I talked to them. Also, I don’t feel the need to say “oh I met so and so and they’re really nice and they told me all about their kids, etc etc” on some random website. Get a life.
@et moi,
Ooh can you tell any more about your conversation with Gary Oldman? I think he’s fantastic. How does he look in ‘real life’?
omg! gary oldman!!! i lovvveee his acting. you’re right, if you live in the big city, you’re bound to spot a celeb or two. i don’t live in the US but since i live in a city, i have met a few local celeb.. those who are friendly will talk to you if you approach them the right way. so it’s not like its impossible or a big lie.
wow im surprised at all the positive feedback
i dont know how i feel about the “i love my body” things from victoria secret. its nice that they love their bodies, but its sort of strange that they are telling us how great their bodies and how much they love them when most of them, and especially alessandra ambrosio, is clearly underweight and looks a bit unwell, at least to me. 10 pounds would be good for her.
i laughed out loud at her big hands that “Grab lots of snacks” lol. good one alessandra.
>>i laughed out loud at her big hands that “Grab lots of snacks” lol. good one alessandra.<<
I think by snacks she meant bottled water?
I agree 10 pounds would be better on Ale, but is that a reason for her not to love her body? Because she lacks 10 pounds from the ideal?
I think this sends a good message, because it’s not always about BMI, or waist size, or pounds or appearance…Sometimes we forget to appreciate our bodies in a functional manner, like the fact that they allow us to exist and do the things we do every day.
Some people are naturally thin. It drives me INSANE that people always assume thin people are anorexic. Alessandra looks like she has been thin her entire life. She looks good at the weight she is. She’s petite and adorable. 10lbs more wouldn’t matter but I dont think it would be better? Thin people live longer and happier lives!
I feel you. People don’t want to believe thin girls eat things like snacks, cake, or meat.
Which is strange, because, why wouldn’t they? I think most people can indulge once a day, as long as they work it off; this is especially true for people who are naturally thin, like Ale.
I think Ale is healthy as she is, but I think she would look even sexier with 10 pounds on her. However, that’s just for appearance; it’s not like anyone’s health drastically changes after gaining/losing 10 pounds.
Thank you! LOL. Its just as insulting to assume that slightly big boned people go home and gorge themselves. Its absolutely rude. I dont think Ale needs to gain any weight tho. I mean she has abs for heavens sakes! You prob wouldn’t notice a 10lbs gain but if I looked like that I wouldn’t want to start to let myself go. lol.
it does if you are very underweight, actually.
10 pounds makes a huuuge difference on someone who is far too underweight… it can make a massive impact on a small person’s physical health.
i understand that there are naturally thin people out there, but please. first of all, allessandra does not go around eating all the snacks in the world and look that thin… she is not in my opinion THAT naturally thin, but probably is extremely strict with her diet.
aesthetically, AND in health terms most importantly, 10 pounds WOULD MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR HER HEALTH as well as her aesthetics.
i appreciate “loving your body” and that is a nice message, but when its coming ONLY from underweight victoria secret models, the message is quite skewed, in my opinion.
Unless you have a BMI of 16 and are on the brink of organ failure, or are about to have a heart attack from obesity, no, 10 pounds would not make a big difference on overall health.
Besides, you don’t know if she’s extremely strict in her diet, nor if her health is in danger, nor if it will be improved by weight gain. You’re making assumptions with little facts to back them up besides opinion. I was as thin as her a year ago, (maybe thinner) and forced myself to gain 10. Guess what? Lab results and overall health didn’t change. Only appearance. And since most people at her weight don’t experience the negative repercussions of starvation and low weight, I’m going to guess she’s fine health wise.
Casey, can you please tell me how you gained the 10 pounds?? I’m about Alessandra’s size , I like being thin but I wouldn’t mind gaining a few pounds.
Sure Sharen. This is what helped me gain 10 pounds. I wanted to be flexible so I set minimums for myself rather than actual amounts, that way I can eat even more if I feel like it.
- A diet that gradually built up to about 2700 calories per day. I had to eat at least 2700, but my goal was more than that, and I usually wound up eating around 3000.
- The diet was high fat/high protein. I ate at least 20 grams more of each per day than the daily value says to. If you’re in USA, Ensure is a pretty good protein drink (tastes the best) but it’s kind of expensive.
- Light weight training. I didn’t use a machine, just my own body and textbooks as dumbbells.
Hope that helps you in any way.
Thank you for the info!!
oh, it’s so cute how ignorant you are; while judging others for being ignorant. adorable, really.
i’m anorexic ( recovering ) , and that drives me crazy to. being thin dose’nt make you anorexic at all.
whats also annoying is , if some one says there anorexic people asume them to look like a african child in poverty
there are anorexics who arnt actually shockingly thin to tbh.
meh i could ran ton for hours. ill just shut up :L
but yes it is infuriating people assume skinny = starving yourself
Alessandra is one of my favorite of the VS models. I’m glad she’s so positive about her appearance, but I’m sure she has her share of insecurities. I would have liked if she had shaed those as well it would have made her a little more relatable to myself. but i guess that’s not what VS wanted. either way i do like her!
Love this woman. Love her appearance, love her personality, love the fact that she is such a proud mom.
I really could bet thousands of dollars that she is naturally thin. On top of that, I can bet she works out (duh) and eats healthy. Thus, I feel like her hands do reach out for those snacks form time to time.
She has very small boobs and almost no curves in the video…..and looks amazing! Proof that the afformentioned are not required to be physically attractive. Not that I am slating boobs and curves, I’m saying that they are not the pinnacle of perfection.
Agreed! My boyfriend LOVES my little boobs – he always says its great cause they will never sag – which is inevitable with big boobs! Big boobs always end up down by a womans knees…
Bleck!
Sure….I cannot stant this crap about big boobs sagging more than small ones…seriously, that’s what women tell themselves when they’re unhappy about their cup size. Both small and big breasts sag to a certain extend but it really depends on the person (their genes, connective tissue, whatever) how much they sag.
I have a D-Cup and they’re all round and perky and I know they won’t end up down on my knees!! My mums never did, they’re still as shapely as they always were even though hers are even bigger.
And I’ve seen lots of small boobs that looked quite deflated (not trying to sound rude), so ppl should just shut up about this, it’s discriminating.
I don’t think they’re so much unhappy with their cup size rather than justifying why they prefer their own. That said, boobs can sag regardless of size, and large breasts don’t necessarily sag either.
I am defently not unhappy with my small boobs! I would NEVER EVER want big ones. Big breasted woman can’t wear the same clothes that smaller breasted woman can (if you know about fashion you would know about this!), they get in your face when you run and its just 10-20 extra lbs of fat. Also, i love being cute and petite!
I’m sure you probably haven’t noticed how much your mom’s boobs have sagged. Depending on her age and if they are really large they are probably being hoisted up by a metal underwire contraption of a bra!!!! Also the only deflation that occurs with smaller breasts is after CHILDBIRTH AND BREASTFEEDING. If you know anything about anatomy you would know this!
Oh God I wish I could wear nice clothes and those cute tiny bras
Oh wow, why so much vitriol for big breasts?
TMI?
Small boobs shrivel up, so I don’t know which is better sag or shrivel? Having both would really suck though.
You guys are retarded if you cant understand the laws of simple gravity… large boobs pull on the skin more than small ones do. Small boobs stay up longer and I’ve never heard for small ones shriveling up! LOL. Even my doctor explained the laws of boob physics to me! Larger ones fall and thats that!
Right from Wiki:
“As breasts are mostly composed of adipose tissue, their size can change over time. This occurs for a number of reasons, most obviously when a girl grows during puberty and when a woman becomes pregnant. The breast size may also change if she gains (or loses) weight for any other reason. Any rapid increase in size of the breasts can result in the appearance of stretchmarks and sagging.The size of a womans breasts are directly related to the amount of sagging and stretchmarks brests will endure. Smaller breasts generally endure less sagging and revert to approximately their previous size after pregnancy.”
Aims I am with you on the preference of having small boobs! I would hate having large boobs, for so many reasons. I love having small sexy boobs, like Alessandra Ambrosio – perfection in my opinion! I know many guys who prefer a chick with a good full B cup and a nice ass over a big breasted chick with an ass or not! People just don’t understand why anyone girl would ever love smaller breasts over big, but girl I am right there with you I understand EXACTLY!
Thank you! Finally someone with some brains on here! I mean, its common sence that smaller ones sag less! Of course, if I had big ones I would probably be trying desperately to prove that they dont sag in some way… that doesn’t make any sence. lol. Smaller boobs in my opionion are much better overall. Mine will probably go to a B in my later years but then while all my D cup friends are crying cause they have to hoist theirs up – I’ll be smiling with my girlish body still! It’s very true. My mom’s 45 and she has the body of a 20 year old! My friends mom on the other hand has larger D’s and they are really bad – really low, about where her belly button is. This should be common knowledge for everyone – I don’t know how anyone could defeat the laws of gravity unless you have surgical procedures done!
Haha wow my Mom is 46 and has an a B cup and people still ask for her ID when she buys alcohol, I think she is so beautiful, and apparently other people think so too! I am glad I got her boob size haha. And know what you mean about the girlish body, I think it’s smoldering sexy when a woman gets older but she maintains a tiny youthful figure and appearance. Ahhh reminds me of Jessica Alba and Alessandra, the Victoria’s Secret Angels ect. It’s also why my Dad married my Mom, he said she weighed 100 pounds when they met (she’s 5’2″) and now she weighs about 110, which isn’t bad at all for 46! Glad to know there is someone else on this site voicing their opinion without afraid of criticism, I love it!
Oh god you’re so damn ignorant and annoying; go build yourself a golden statue or something, you are sure not getting that over here. Not with that filthy attitude.
My hands to grab lots of snacks??? YEAH, RIGHT. She is skinnier than ever. Hypocrite.
She’s gorgeous. She named her hands as her favorite body part, mine are my favorite part of me as well =D Long fingers like hers.
She seems like she is very sweet
I can believe she snacks. Snacks don’t always equal junkfood. I consider baby carrots and mixed nuts snacks.
What you said ^
About the snacks that some of you are commenting on…it didn’t really make much sense to me that she said that in the video, I think she feels, like other models, that she has to defend that she eats…that’s why they are always saying that they eat a whole lot, because people don’t want to believe that models eat anything besides water and lettuce… People who can’t get thin use anorexic models as fuel to criticize all models, even the ones that are obviously healthy, like Alessandra.
she definately seems like shes naturally thin and just eats healthy and probaly exercises for 1 hour a day which is healthy and pretty much what i do.
She seems sweet, I like her.
I guess she is naturally thin – she barely gained any weight while she was pregnant.
I think she is naturally thin, but still eats healthily and works out. Which makes her even thinner and her metabolism higher.
She is sweet, but does not seem very intelligent. Oh well though, she’s a model and really doesn’t need to be I guess.
She looks gorgeous and im so glad to hear that she loves her body. Good for her. When you show your body love ie good nutrition and exercise it shows, just as it does for Aless. I think the whole “she would look better with 10 pounds” is a cop out. She looks great. And I bet she does have a healthy bmi. You can be this thin and still be healthy. For some it’s hard work for others it’s not so much. I know I will get cbad feedback for this but SOME people seem so jealous of her and im sure some of those people are indeed sencerely jelous.
Why would someone be jealous of a random person? And why is that automatically assumed?
I don’t find her attractive. I find nothing wrong with her body or looks or anything, I just don’t see “it”.
But she is from Brazil like me, so woohooo!!!
hm…she’s just not my cup of tea…tranny much? idk
She has an AMAZING body. My boyfriend is tottaly loves her and all his friends too! LOL. Its funny because men don’t really know what curvey is. I asked them “Do you think she’s got curves in the right places?” They said “For sure and she’s not that fat curvey type!”. It’s true that men really do love these body types. It’s funny they said that. I don’t think men realize her BMI is probably pretty low and she’s really thin, but she is far from anorexic – I mean please! Anorexic is gross like bones with no fat or bum on them. Thin is different. Thin woman are healthier overall and live MUCH longer lives.
Yes, your boyfriend and his group of friends are representative of ALL men. Different men like different things.
Just sayin! You can tell yourself whatever makes you feel better but lets be honest – men look at pornos with skinny chicks on it right? I’ve never caught a guy looks at BBW porn…
but the very fact that BBW porn exists must mean that there is consumer demand for it.
Ok okay, you are right – the ugly ones will date the fat chicks cause they will take what they can get! LOL
Sorry, but sometimes the truth is cold! Men want a tight little thing that they can tot around. They dont care much for woman whom they cant lift, couldn’t beat in an arm wrestle or who would crush their hips it they mounted them…. lmfao. You can tell yourself whatever you want, but the truth is that the MASS majority of men prefer a woman who is slim…. Run any type of unedited survey and thats what you will find.
Again I agree with you Aims, I am on the exact same page as you. Have to let you know that you will get crap for saying the truth ha ha ha but hey, I am with you on your preferences, sometimes people can’t handle the truth.
Well, of course anyone with larger boobs would be trying to prove otherwise. Just like a fat person would be trying to prove they are big boned and not actually fat…! But I mean, if its in freaking wikipedia and doctors are saying that larger boobs sag – ITS PROBABLY TRUE! Oh I don’t care what these people think. I’m just speaking my mind…. no one should get in trouble for speaking their mind. They can call me whatever… I really have better things to do than try to tell to win an argument with some overweight crying teenagers. LOL. I just come on here to check out the pics and read comments. Some you dont want to read and others you do! I’m glad you agree with me – because we are right!
oh wow get over yourself.
Beauty and taste is subjective. If the majority of men preferred the exact same thing the human race would have become extinct by now.
furthermore Its good that you are happy with your small breasts but is it necessary to put women with big breasts down?
small breasts are not intrinsically better than big breasts and big breasts are not intrinsically better than small breasts. there are pros and cons to each.
we were all made differently.. some tall, some short, some big, some small. there is no superiority.
oh and FYI I am not an ‘overweight crying teenager’.. I am 21 and 5ft 6 50 kg.
haha just to add-
I wouldn’t be suprised if you thought I was a jealous ugly fatty at 50kg
luca , your a stick and excuse me
anorexic – I mean please! Anorexic is gross like bones with no fat or bum on them.
be more sensitive.
you just called 100 million strangers gross .
you no nothing about them
what a awful stereo type. no all them are thanks.
what the f**k is this? i love my body cuz i can do yoga? does that sound like an intelligent person??? she likes her hands?? is she aware what she’s talking about? she high?
sorry , u r not pretty.. just skinny
Vs models are saying they love their body and they eat like normal people so that people will relate to them…Alessandra says her hands let her reach out for snacks so that people know that she is normal like them..she does eat..she is not anorexic and she does not starve herself..
It is like VS models can’t ever win with some people..if she said she did not eat..people would get angry..if she said she ate snacks or whatever..people would get angry..
I think she is beautiful
Daww, she’s cute.
Good for her. Its great that she loves her body. There is no reason that she should be criticized for loving her body and being healthy either. It is just so unfair for the thin women out there.
Her face has always scared me. It is very reminiscent of the vampires in Buffy! Definitely not my cup of tea. She suits her figure, but I wouldn’t want it as my own.
This was really cute, not what I was expecting at all! I think she sounds a bit dumb because English may not necessarily be her first language so she simplifies her speech. Correct me if I’m wrong though.
I just can’t get enough of her! She is so gorgeous, cute and inspiring!! Keep the Alessandra posts coming!!
