Model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley found it hard to deal with fame when she first started her modelling career.
The 26-year-old star was discovered by Profile Model Management almost 10 years ago and was then catapulted to fame after landing a number of prestigious campaigns with companies such as Burberry and being made a Victoria's Secret Angel.
Huntington-Whiteley , 26, enjoyed her success but admits she found the huge attention in her actions and private life hard to cope with.
"The first few years of modelling were tough but now it's different. I have to take into consideration that it's my actions going to be all over the papers. Now I'm at a point where I don't have to be uncomfortable - and I certainly don't need to be," she said.
The blonde beauty, who is in a relationship with Jason Statham, does things differently now as she has learnt how to play fame game.
"When I started I was a lot more carefree. There was less attention focused on me. There are things I wouldn't do now, certain environments I wouldn't put myself in. I was a bit wilder in my late teens," she added.
