Victoria's Secret a huge 'Transformers 3' fan
Leave it to Michael Bay to pioneer the next evolution of movie marketing: the human product placement. Lingerie model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's rumored casting in Transformers 3 is being viewed by some as a heaving, button-bursting plug for her main employer, Victoria's Secret, which even put out the video below to congratulate her. With no real acting credits to speak of, Huntington-Whiteley did appear in Bay's epic underwear ad, which proved she had one of predecessor Megan Fox's best Transformers talents: maintaining a heroic level of cleavage while surrounded by pointless explosions.
