Emily Ratajkowski swears by hiking, yoga and occasional indulgence when it comes to maintaining her enviable figure
The American model, who saw her star rocket since being cast in the video for the controversial song featuring T.I. and Pharrell in 2013, has revealed exactly how she achieves and maintains the enviable body.
Discussing her eating habits with ELLE, she said: 'You know, I'm a carnivore. I really like to eat meat. I crave iron so I am definitely not the kind of person who you will find eating a salad. I like to keep it really balanced to give my body energy and also be healthy.'
The busy model and actress says that cooking using fresh ingredients is essential so that she can monitor how much salt and sugar she is putting into her body.
While it may not look like it, Emily maintains that it's 'good' to indulge occasionally. She said: 'I wouldn't say I am the type of girl who craves Doritos but I definitely love a good cupcake sometimes. Or a croissant in the morning. 
'I think it is like really important to give yourself a break. And also just really think about where things are coming from what kind of ingredients are going into your body.'

In terms of her exercise regime, the brunette beauty says she loves hiking in Los Angeles and always fits in her yoga classes a 'couple of time a week', which she says is a 'big part' of her regimen. 
Her regime is certainly paying off; the star was recently snapped up to front Intimately Free People's latest collection, as well as a Yamamay lingerie campaign. 
Speaking to MailOnline, Emily recently revealed her thoughts on sexuality and feminism.
She explained: 'I think you can be a sexual woman, empowered and be a feminist. I think sexuality should be empowering to women, it's not always misogynistic or exploitative.'

Emily also admitted that she had initially turned down the Blurred Lines job, until she eventually saw it as a 'good opportunity'.
She said: 'I had initially turned it down. I was eventually convinced by the director, who I really liked, to do it.
'It was kind of a good opportunity for me in a way because I couldn't really speak about the lyrics as I didn't write them, but I could about the video.
'I had all kinds of ideas to say so it ended up being a good platform, because on the other side I think people were like, "Well let's hear what the girls think."'
The model insists she's now being 'selective' with roles as she pursues more acting jobs and claims it is not only women who are objectified but male actors also.
She said: 'I want to establish myself as someone who can act and doesn't have to rely on my figure or modelling background.'
