In December 2011, twenty-one-year-old Victoria's Secret model Kylie Bisutti stunned the fashion industry when she chose faith over fame and fortune and made the switch from supermodel to role model.
In I'm No Angel, Kylie shares her story—from her early years struggling to make it big in the cut-throat world of modeling, her big break winning the Victoria's Secret Runway Angel competition, and the disillusionment and spiritual warfare that followed, to the moment she realized she could no longer reconcile her career with her Christian beliefs, surrendered her life to God, said goodbye to the runway, and dedicated her life to preaching a message of modesty and inner beauty. Along the way Kylie talks about her personal struggles with inadequacy, low self-esteem, and her near-constant quest for approval in a world where you can never be thin enough, pretty enough, or sexy enough. She helps listeners understand that true beauty lies within and that real fulfillment comes from knowing, loving, and serving Christ.

Kylie Bisutti was just nineteen years old when she beat out more than ten thousand other contestants to win the coveted title of Victoria’s Secret Runway Angel as part of a nationally televised competition that captivated the attention of millions of viewers across the country and around the world. Shortly thereafter she shocked both fans and critics when she made the controversial decision to walk away from her high-profile, multimillion-dollar career because she couldn’t reconcile modeling lingerie with her Christian beliefs.

Her firsthand accounts of the harsh realities of the modeling industry and the truth behind the images the media presents as “feminine perfection” have captivated audiences the world over and have the power to forever change the way women view the media, the modeling industry, and themselves.
