Kate Upton has gone from a Sports Illustrated to Vogue. Take that, haters.

While often labeled too fat, too curvy, or the kind of girl suited for bikini pictures but not “real” modeling, the 20-year-old has proven her critics wrong.

Here’s the hottie on the June cover of the renowned fashion mag:

Kate tells Vogue that runway modeling isn’t “what I set out to do,” but here she is, and wants to front a major fashion campaign and her own lingerie line next.

Oh, and she also says she’d like to branch out into more acting as well. Of her broad career goals, she says, “I’m an American … more is more!”

Sort of our attitude when it comes to Kate Upton photos. Amen, girl.
