Gorgeous Brooklyn Decker had a great year career-wise, landing the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and a role in the new Adam Sandler film, but as aspiring model, she was told that her looks didn’t fit the mold.

“I have boobs. I’m very all-American,” Brooklyn told Page Six. “I wasn’t edgy. Plus, I’d walk in and be like, ‘Hey guys!’ with a big smile on my face. And they’d be like, ‘You are not cool. You are too nice’. . . But funnily enough, the second I started accepting that this is who I am, I started working a ton.”

We’re glad she’s working a lot, because we can’t get enough of the beautiful Brooklyn!
