Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel poses half naked for Maxim magazine

She seems fearless on the catwalk and sexy on photo shoots but Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel confesses it's taken a lot of nerve to be comfortable in her own skin.

The blonde, blue-eyed model from South Africa tells Maxim magazine that she doesn't see herself as the woman that the world sees.

'I look at myself in the third person, because that girl in the pictures isn’t me: It’s a girl I created to cope with the spotlight. I had to get over a lot of shyness to do this job,' she said.
