Mystery of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's New Victoria's Secret Campaign Solved

The British press has been rife with reports about stunning supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's sizzling new ad campaign for Victoria's Secret (above). The eye-popping shots have been making the rounds of the tabloid press as Huntington-Whiteley's stature grows in anticipation of her role in the upcoming flick Transformers 3; she also just landed on the cover of British Vogue. Not having heard of the new ads we did some research and discovered that the pix are in fact from a Body By Victoria campaign that she shot back in March 2010 with fellow Victoria's Secret Angels Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, Chanel Iman and Lindsay Ellingson that somehow slipped under the radar. Of course, Huntington-Whiteley, who's said to be a cousin of the Queen of England, wasn't as famous then, though we were among the first to recognize her potential starting with this post back in 2008. You can thank us later; meanwhile feast your eyes on the rediscovered snaps from the famed lingerie firm.
