Evidently, Victoria’s Secret angel wings can only take you so far.
Jessica Stam’s decided that being taller than most women isn’t enough anymore, and is studying for her pilot’s license. And all we keep thinking is, what is she going to wear? Dior Homme jeans and Christian Louboutins may not be the most suitable attire for the cockpit, though Amelia Earhart did famously keep up appearances (most notably by always powdering her nose before and after entering the cockpit), so why go against history?
We’re kind of loving this news - it’s just another in a string of models taking up interests that have nothing to do with clothes or cashing in on their face DNA (Sasha’s an artist, Daria sails, Lily knows a lot, etc), which is admirable and saves us from groaning that they’re busy designing for Mango or something.
On a side note, does this mean she’ll fly herself to the Couture, or to shoots? Imagine the savings in production costs!

Hate to bring up the negative, but it isn't odd that she's getting her license after her former BF was in a small plane crash? I'd be too scared to step aboard a private plane, let alone fly one.
