Taylor Hill thought she'd 'messed up' her Victoria's Secret audition with her constant swearing... as she shows off her Angel figure in sultry photoshoot
With her endless limbs and jaw-dropping features, you'd be forgiven for thinking that model Taylor Hill nailed her Victoria's Secret audition back in 2014.
But the Illinois born beauty, 20, confessed that it wasn't all smooth sailing after she found herself swearing her way through the casting process two years ago.
'I was just winging it. I didn’t train or do any prep, because you’re always being told, "Don’t get your hopes up, VS is a tricky client"', she recalled to ES Magazine.

Potty mouth: Taylor Hill, 20, confessed that it wasn't all smooth sailing landing the Victoria's Secret Show after she found herself swearing throughout the casting process two years ago
Fearing she had missed out on her chances on becoming an Angel, the striking brunette relayed her shock when her agent called up to tell her the good news.
'I thought they were going to say I’d messed up and said the F-word too much. Sometimes when I’m nervous it just comes out!' Taylor explained.
But it was clear to see why the lingerie company wanted her to appear in the show as she showed off her phenomenal figure in a dazzling photoshoot.
She's got her wings! Fearing she had missed out on her chances on becoming an Angel, the striking brunette relayed her shock when her agent called up to tell her the good news
Fresh off the Victoria's Secret runway, Taylor was back in her lingerie as she posed in a lacy lilac bra and tights.
Showing off her enviably lean legs she reclined in a chair with her pins outstretched whilst she added some extra height to her frame with a pair of buckled heels.
For another stunning shot she showed off her perky assets in a lace bralet, whilst a white midi skirt aided in accentuating her tiny waist.

Leggy lady! Taylor showed off her enviably lean pins as she reclined on a sofa clad in just a brown bodysuit that clung to her impeccably toned figure
But despite looking every inch the brunette bombshell, Taylor claims she's more of a 'loser tomboy type.'
She told the magazine: 'I’m very nerdy, I love to read - I’m not necessarily a girl’s girl.'
But she explained that it was this dichotomy that makes her love the show so much.
'It really challenges who I am as a person,' she admitted. 'I’m standing there in underwear, but I’m just like "Hey guys!"'
Wild thing! For another shot, Taylor donned a matching leather jacket and trousers set with a strip of animal print running along the seam of the garments

One of her closest bonds, however, is with Behati Prinsloo - who did not walk in the show this year after welcoming daughter Dusty Rose with husband Adam Levine in September.
Discussing her best friend, Taylor said: 'She’s a weirdo. I love her. She’s just loud and clumsy and she laughs a lot.
'The first time we met, she was touching my face and being like, "You’re so cute". And I’m just like, "I love you!"'

Dazzling: Taylor is always a welcome addition to the Victoria's Secret runway
'I was just winging it!' The 5 ft 10 in model confessed she didn't train or prep for the coveted runway spot as she was told not have her 'hopes up'
The 5 ft 10 in beauty, who walked an impressive ten runways for the Spring 2017 season this year, was discovered at the tender age of 14.
The in-demand model, who bagged a Topshop campaign this year, confessed she was stunned when she was approached by a photographer during her early teen years.
'This guy who said he’s a photographer came over and asked if we were models. We were like, "What the f***? No!" (He then said to her mother): "Oh my God, your daughter should be a model".'
Nervous habit: Taylor revealed her utter shock when her agent called to say she had bagged a spot on the VS show, despite her use of expletives in the casting
Early start: Taylor (pictured during her Victoria's Secret debut in 2014) was discovered at the age of 14 by a photographer and has gone on to front campaigns for the likes of Topshop, Miu Miu and Marc Jacobs
The former gymnast also credits her mum on becoming her support system during her early casting days - giving her crucial advice on navigating her way through airports, hotels and tubes.
The advice paid off as Taylor has now fronted high-profile campaigns for the likes of Miu Miu, Anna Sui and Marc Jacobs.
And last week Taylor proved the VS bosses had made a good decision in taking a chance on her as she strutted down the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show at Grand Palais in Paris for the second year running.

Model success: Taylor's model profile is continually on the rise after she walked an impressive ten runways for the Spring 2017 season this year
With the eyes of the world on her, she sizzled in a Gothic-inspired skimpy black lace number which complemented her thigh-high leather boots.
The full interview with Taylor appears in this week's issue of ES Magazine.
For her second look, she flaunted her sensationally flat abs in a minuscule pink two-piece and printed coat, alongside pastel blue boots.
Joining her on the runway were veteran angels Alessandra Ambrosio and Adriana Lima.
As well as Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and Bella Hadid, who made her big debut for the show.
The Parisian show marks the Victoria's Secret catwalk's 21st year, having first launched in New York in 1995.
The show has grown in size every year and scoring higher profile names with it.
