Selita Ebanks
Want to court model Selita Ebanks? A fierce pair of shoes straight from the runway may be the quickest way to her heart. The Victoria Secret’s model, this years BET Rip the Runway host, and current spokesperson for Carol’s Daughter, is featured in a hot spread for the latest issue of FHM UK. Inside, she reveals her shoe obsession and dishes on what it was like to work with Kanye West in the short film ‘Runaway’.
Excerpts plus photos from her haute magazine spread below:
It was such a strange character that it was almost like an out of body experience. It was also very stressful. Partly because we filmed 21 hours a day and partly because Kanye’s vision was so out of the box that the video was a real hit or miss idea. I did not want to be the reason it became a miss.

On her revealing outfit
Yeah, it wasn’t very substantial, but to be honest I didn’t really worry about it, as I was more concerned about the character and I am really free spirited about my body. For me the most nerve-wracking thing about the outfit was persuading my grandmother that I was actually wearing something, as since the feathers were nude she thought I was naked.
On preparing for her kiss with Kanye
There was no, “Okay. Breath check,” or anything it was just like: “Okay sweetie here are your lines, now kiss me.” So it was very weird and more than a little awkward because it was my first onscreen kiss and Kanye is a good friend of mine. Fortunately the lighting was really dark, so that made it less intense.
On hanging out with Kanye outside of work:
He hangs with me, darling. I’m only kidding. Our schedules mean we don’t see a lot of each other, but we had dinner at the Cannes Film Festival. It was good to catch up about work and his album.
I stopped counting a long time ago. I don’t want to sound pretentious, but I reckon I have over 300 pairs. I do donate some to charity, but others I’ve had for over ten years and love so much I simply can’t let go.
On how to win her heart
Let me tell you something. If a guy bought me a limited edition of the fiercest, highest heels straight from the runway then I would be in love so yes, shoes are the quickest way to win me over. Absolutely.
