Super model Lorena Rae admitted she was a nervous wreck when it came time to strut her stuff on the catwalk

Lorena Rae’s life forever changed at age 18 when she drove off to Hamburg, in her native Germany, with her best friend for a shopping spree.

“I was approached by a model scout,” the now-24-year-old recalled to Fox News. “He was like, ‘Oh, you’re very tall.’ I was like, ‘Yep.’ He’s like, ‘Have you ever considered becoming a model?’ I said, ‘Nope.’ Because I was very shy back then. I was like, ‘No, not really.’ And then somehow I ended up going to my first agency… Signed a contract two weeks later.”

The German beauty, now a sought-after model for The Lions agency, said that when she did decide to pursue modeling, she hoped to spread her wings with Victoria’s Secret.

And sure enough, Rae was later selected to walk the runway for the 2018 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. According to Rae, growing up in her native Germany, she vividly recalled admiring the stunning supermodels rocking skimpy lingerie and swimsuits for the brand. Now, it was her turn to shine.

“I started crying,” said Rae when she got the offer of a lifetime to appear in the televised show. “I got a phone call, and then my agent was like, ‘I have a little surprise for you. You booked the Victoria’s Secret Show,’” recalled Rae. “I was at a restaurant having dinner with my friends and I just couldn’t believe it. I had to go outside… I remember calling my mom... She started crying with me. I think it took a couple of days to process that. I really had to call my agent back and be like, ‘Are you sure? Are you really sure?’"

Despite the news, Rae admitted she was a nervous wreck when it came time to strut her stuff on the catwalk.

“… I was one of the first people there,” explained Rae. “The whole hair and makeup process, all these people behind the scenes, and actually seeing all the Angels and the girls you’re going to walk with, seeing your outfit handing there it was super nerve-racking. … I just wanted to remember everything. … When I came back from the runway, I really didn’t remember anything.”

As Rae’s fame continues to grow, she hasn’t forgotten about her past. In fact, Rae insisted remaining close to her family has been essential to her life.
