The Thing About “Bright Young Things”

Then there’s firecracker. You want to be called a firecracker, I think? If you’re a woman, it means that the speaker approves of you. He (it’s usually a he) finds you feisty, energetic, opinionated, and honest. You also may be on the petite side, like a compact paper cylinder packed with explosives. The point is, it’s cute when you yell! (Meanwhile, if you’re a man and someone calls you a firecracker, you are either the singer Miguel or John Fletcher, the Human Firecracker, who over years of performances has lit more than 600,000 fireworks off his body.) Likewise, while plenty of men have been described as “whip-smart”—including Andrew Sullivan, a “whip-smart voice of reason in the racket that is the blogosphere,” George Clooney, and the all-guy band OK Go—the word is more frequently attached to members of the second sex: Ellen Page, Gail Collins, Elizabeth Warren, Rachel Maddow, modern moms, a wise-cracking dominatrix, Lisbeth Salander. This gender imbalance may have something to do with Liz Phair’s 1994 album Whip-Smart, which gave the adjective a lasting feminine shine. But it may also relate to how the compliment, while not backhanded exactly, suggests a level of inexperience or unrealized potential that is absent from more masculine terms like wunderkind. Watch out for the wunderkind: He’s a genius, and he’ll eat your lunch. The whip-smart new hire seems a little less threatening—unproven and rough around the edges. If wunderkind implies you should bow down, then whip-smart says “don’t count her out just yet.” She may not look like much, but perhaps she’ll prove to be more than the latest bright young thing.

The 27-year-old British supermodel displayed her enviable pins and toned abs as she wore some of the designs she made for the posh brand’s Valentine’s line, The Daily Mail said in a report.

In one of the photos, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley showed off her model credentials in a pair of lacey black underwear as she let loose her trademark long blond locks.

The model also rocked a set of pink underwear, which highlighted her curves that once graced the catwalk for Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows.

Meanwhile, Jason Statham’s girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley said that she will not marry for money.

“That’s never been it for me,” the model told ELLE magazine.

The Devon-born beauty, who will be on the cover of the said magazine for its February issue, said that she likes working hard for herself.

“I’m an ambitious girl. I love to work, and it makes me feel good. I like to make something of my own. It’s a huge opportunity, so it’s like: ‘What can I build from this for when I don’t want the limelight anymore,’” the “Mad Max: Fury Road” actress said.

She also claimed that work is her priority right now as she knows she will not be in the limelight in the future, Express UK said in their report.

“I’m not very good at turning down work. You’ve got to make hay while the sun shines.”

Aside from modeling, Jason Statham’s girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley juggles her lucrative career with acting. The model is set to appear in the upcoming movie “Mad Max: Fury Road” alongside Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult.
