She beat models Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid to win the title of World's Sexiest Woman.
Kate Upton had a pleasant surprise for her 5.9 million Instagram followers.
The model, who features on the cover of Maxim's July edition, announced that the mag had named her the Hottest Woman of 2018.
'Thanks to Maxim for naming me the No One Hottest Woman of 2018!' she wrote on Instagram.
In the post, Kate also thanked photographer Gilles Bensimon for shooting the stunning cover, in which the American bombshell is seen baring her curves in a desert in Israel.
The Sports Illustrated swimsuit star is one of the most sought-after models in the fashion world.
'Perhaps no one has exuded Americana like this year's winner, supermodel Kate Upton,' the publication shared.
'Like her doppelganger Marilyn Monroe, the 26-year-old is a blonde bombshell if there ever was one, complete with enviable curves, a sweet smile, and, remarkably, a good old-fashioned work ethic.'
The model tied the knot to Houston Astros pitcher Justin Verlander last year in Tuscany.
