Kate Upton Dishes About Acting, Fred Upton, and 'SI' with Jimmy Kimmel

America reacquired one of her most treasured assets this week when Kate Upton returned from her international media blitz promoting "The Other Woman." While the movie isn’t due at your local Cineplex for another two weeks, Kate has stayed on the promotional trail by appearing on Jimmy Kimmel last night, this time on her own terms.

For many 21-year-old neophyte actresses, international press tours are the first chance for them to venture outside the country. But, as we all know, Kate is not your typical rookie starlet. Back in her teens—which were only two years ago—Kate was on her catalog modeling grind, jetting back and forth to Germany twice a month. Her hustle was so hard, she’d fall asleep in the lobbies of her hotels.

One of the true treasures last year was House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy Instagramming a photo with Rep. Fred Upton. It featured the most unlikely of cameos.

Happy 21st!

Kate happened to be in Washington last June; she was taking the elevator from her hotel gym and the doors opened to reveal the representative for MI-6 (Required James Bond MI6 reference here!). Rep. Upton was hard at work politicking and didn't notice her, hence becoming the sole man on the planet to not recognize Kate Upton.

While her actual 21st was spent in the Capitol City with Uncle Fred, Kate celebrated her Name Day with "Other Woman" costars Leslie Mann and Cameron Diaz with many tequila shots, as every 21-year-old should. Hopefully, no balls were harmed in the festivities.

Kate's already scaled the modeling mountain. The only way for her ascent to continue is to become an international brand and ruin a NFL franchise.

Kate's already conquered the Forgotton Continent,

and Gravity itself,

...what battle left is there to win?
