Alright, so enough is never enough for multitalented supermodel Karlie Kloss.

The 22-year-old has launched her very own YouTube channel and it doesn't seem to be as boring as some might expect - in less than 24 hours it's reached more than 120,000 views.

Kloss has fronted numerous fashion campaigns, editorials, magazine covers, and she's walked hundreds of catwalks worldwide, from London to Paris, but she’s also added a list of skills to her bulging CV.

“Modelling has kept me very busy, but it’s not my soul focus,” she says in the channel's trailer. “I also make time for my baking career, learning how to code, and I just got accepted to NYU.”

The American model, baker and entrepreneur has her own biscuit company (Karlie’s Kookies, with a 10-pack costing £15), went to a coding school, and now seems to be digging into the rapid-growing world of vlogging. So, if you want to go behind the scenes of some of the biggest shows and shoots, or well, to see Kloss’ life, jobs, beauty and fitness regimes, through her lens, then tune in.

With almost three million followers on Instagram and over a million Likes on her Facebook page, it comes as no surprise to see the first video on the Klossy channel, posted last night, getting thousands of hits and over 7,000 likes in hours. So whether you’re a fan or not, she’s likely to reach a big audience.

“I’ve spent the majority of my life in front of a camera, but not my camera,” she says. We expect loads of selfies - it's the selfie-stick era after all, so what could go wrong?

She ends the clip saying: “I could not be more excited to share my story and this adventure, with you.”
