She's
earned her angel wings strutting on Victoria Secret's hallowed catwalk
in 2012 and 2013, but model Jessica Hart says it was a hard won coup.
The 28-year-old Australian model and her sister Ashley, 25, were speaking on Kyle and Jackie
Show on Thursday promoting Jess's new make-up line Luma, when the older
Hart revealed she spent years working towards gaining a spot on the
famed lingerie brand's runway.
'You
cast for that show and for seven years straight I got turned down and I
will still have to cast for that show this year - it's never a
guaranteed thing,' she said.
Sister Act! Jessica and Ashley Hart
joked about teaming up to walk the Victoria's Secret runway at Wednesday
night's Who Sexiest People party in Sydney
Despite
featuring on the covers of iconic fashion bibles including Vogue and
Harper's Bazaar, Jess describes the Victoria's Secret process as 'nerve
wracking' and 'grueling'.
Not
an official Victoria's Secret Angel, unlike Adriana Lima, Alessandra
Ambrosio, Lily Aldridge and Candice Swanepoel, Hart says all other
aspiring angels have to go through the casting process year after year,
if they want to make the cut.
'There's
about 38-40 that walk in the show, they pick and choose and you just
never know, it's really surprising,' said the New York based model.
Angel
wings! The 28-year-old has strutted for Victoria's Secret for two years,
but says she has to go through the yearly casting process just like any
other aspiring angels
Angel in waiting? The Sports
Illustrated model described the casting process for the famed lingerie
brand as 'grueling' and 'nerve wracking'
And
while the Sports Illustrated model has trod the sacred aisle twice, she
didn't reveal whether she'd be appearing in this year's December annual
strut, which is to be held in London.
However,
it seems Jess is hoping for a return to the Victoria Secret limelight
and there's someone she wants by her side - her sister Ashley.
Her blonde double and fellow model revealed she's never tried out for a star studded spot on the career defining catwalk.
Two for one! Ashley joked that the Australian sisters could walk down the runway together like 'Angel Harts'
Beauty queen: The 28-year-old didn't reveal if she'll be walking in Victoria Secret's 2014 runway show
'I haven't, only in my dreams,' said the former Dancing With The Stars contestant and fiance of model Buck Palmer.
'I've
never casted for it, maybe we'll do a sister act,' she joked, before
saying to her older sister, 'you could wear one wing and I'll wear the
other.
'Angel Harts!'
They've got the look! The sisters are
promoting Jessica's new make-up range Luma in Sydney on Thursday, which
is being launched in Myer stores nationally
Meanwhile Jess concurred, joking: 'Two for one, we'll go down together, joined at the hip.'
The
Sydney born sisters who attended Who's Sexiest People party event on
Wednesday night are in town to promote Jess's new make up range Luma.
Launching
in Myer stores nationally the double act will be attending a store
promotion on Thursday in Sydney, when they'll hold a competition to
select four faces to go on the Luma 'look' section of the website.
Double trouble: The pair both grew up
in Melbourne, but Jessica is now based in New York and Ashley in Los
Angeles, pictured at amfAR Benefit Galla in New York
