Supermodel Kate Upton Says Yes to Prom Date With Los Angeles Jewish Teen
A Los Angeles day school student landed a prom date with supermodel Kate Upton.
Jake Davidson released a YouTube video last week asking Upton to the prom at Milken Community High School in Bel Air, Calif. The video has garnered more than 1 million hits.
Upton, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue cover model for the past two years, surprised Davidson while he was being interviewed Wednesday on NBC’s “Today” show, calling in to tell him she would “love to go.”
She had tweeted a day earlier, ”you can call me Katie if you want! How could I turn down that video! I’ll check my schedule .”
Davidson promised he would get his 11 p.m. curfew waived for the date, according to E!
