And that's not even the best part. Our fellow girls might be aware that every year, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show airs all around the globe. It's an annual show featuring the brand's items.
This year, it will be held in New York. Months before the show, the brand holds castings for hopeful models who want to walk the runway. Lots of models dream of walking the runway along with the VS Angels and other personalities who made the cut.
Of course, we were ecstatic to hear that Kelsey went to the castings a few days ago. She even shared what she wore along with some other shots which made us go heart-eyes-mode over her! Here are some of our favourite photos:

Kelsey is walking at the VSFS runway this year in New York!


Kelsey has revealed on her interview with Preview Magazine that she was casted twice before she was booked for the job. Finally, she got a callback where she did a trial shoot with them, and the rest was history! Of course, this didn't come easy to Kelsey. She works hard to maintain her fitness and her diet, and it definitely shows because of how gorgeous her figure is!

Kelsey definitely is proud of being a Filipina, and you can see it from this Q&A released by Victoria's Secret on their IGTV:

The story isn't over yet - in fact, it's just beginning. But we're so excited to see what's next for Kelsey, and this also gives us hope that everything is possible! For all our sisters out there, no matter what we dream to be (whether it'd be a model or an actress or a singer or an author or a CEO or you just want to live a simple happy life), it's all possible. We all just need hard work and inspiration and we'll definitely get there!
