9 Fun Facts About the Star of Carl’s Jr. Super Bowl 2015 Commercial Star Charlotte McKinney [Video]
If you missed model Charlotte McKinney chomping down on a burger in the Carl's Jr. commercial during Sunday night's Super Bowl XLIX, chances are you've seen the viral ad on social media.
The suggestive ad shows McKinney walking nearly naked through a farmer's market as fruits and vegetables cleverly mask her private parts while men gawk until she devours a Carl's Jr. burger at the end dressed in a bikini top and shorts. The Carl's Jr. ad, shot in Burbank, California, featured the tagline "All Natural" -- just like the new grass-fed-beef burger from Carl's Jr.
On Monday, the 21-year-old Orlando, Florida native graciously hosted a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" so that fans could get to know her better. The question on most of her fan's minds: Is she single? Yes, she is!
While her Carl's Jr. commercial aired during the Super Bowl, the blonde bombshell revealed she was cheering for the Seattle Seahawks.
Her modeling career did not take off until Paul Marciano contacted her for a Guess shoot that landed her a campaign with the designer. But it was actually her September FOX411 interview and tremendous social media following that caught the eye of Carl's Jr.
"They saw my Fox interview and my social-media pages, and then they reached out to my agent," McKinney told Esquire. "There wasn't really an audition process. They just booked me."
Much to the disappointment of male Reddit fans, she admitted that she wasn't really nude during the commercial filming. "I was in a nude bra and underwear," she explained.
The commercial came under fire from feminists and even a Washington Post headline deemed it "sexiest." McKinney doesn't feel negative views about the commercial are warranted. "I think it's all in the way you take it. I think it's a great commercial," she said.
Although she is not ready for a nude photo shoot, the GUESS model would consider it. "I think there's a time and a place for it, and the way you do it. Maybe when I'm older, and it's the right photographer, I'd be open to it," she said.
McKinney has given fans insight into who she really is, including these nine fun facts:
- She dropped out of high school at age 17 after struggling with dyslexia and bullying.
- If there was one thing she would about herself, she'd like to be "better in the kitchen."
- She prefers dogs over cats, especially Papillons.
- Her favorite go-to drink at bars is Tito's vodka and water.
- Although her favorite burger joint is Carl's Jr, the blonde beauty says, "I only eat organic food, and that's the way of life I follow."
- When it comes to video games, she prefers "Mario Tennis" over "Mario Kart."
- She hopes the movie "American Sniper" wins Best Picture this year.
- Her strongest subject in school was physical education.
- Her celebrity crush is Paul Rudd.
As for future projects, McKinney hinted at a possible Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition next year.
In the movie "Joe Dirt 2" to be released this summer, McKinney plays a logger named Missy alongside David Spade.
