Is Kate Upton going to grace the cover of Playboy? The magic 8 ball says don’t count on it. The Sports Illustrated model spoke to British GQ to promote her role as global ambassador for Gilette and said it was unlikely she would be donning bunny ears anytime soon.

“I never like to say never because there are circumstances that I could do pretty much anything if it inspires me and if I think that it's cool at the time. But right now, at this point in my career, I'm not doing Playboy,” she admitted.

Upton also revealed that she has no desire to strut the catwalk at fashion shows.

“Fashion shows are not collaborative,” she explains. “It's only about the designer, so I get bored in that situation. There's also a weird energy backstage - it's a little too aggressive, I prefer a relaxed, happy environment.”

“I love everybody to be happy on set because I think if everybody's having fun you get the best photos,” Upton continued. “So I usually go out of my way to have good energy whenever I'm shooting. You can't do that in a fashion show because it's not a collaboration: it's really not about you.”
