Sophia Neophitou told the New York Times that “we would never use” Upton because her look is “too obvious” to be featured in the high profile production.

“She’s like a Page 3 girl,” Neophitou said, referencing the busty, barely clad model featured in The Sun, a London tabloid. “She’s like a footballer’s wife, with the too-blond hair and that kind of face that anyone with enough money can go out and buy.”

Upton’s rep didn’t immediately respond to ABC News’ requests for comment.
