Barbara Palvin has been praised by fans for how she handled a question about her diet backstage at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on Tuesday.
The Hungarian model, 31, was interviewed by Entertainment Tonight as she got ready for the catwalk spectacle, which saw stars such as Gigi Hadid, Kate Moss, and Ashley Graham flaunt their figures in sexy lingerie at Duggal Greenhouse in Brooklyn, New York City.
While getting her hair and makeup done backstage, Barbara – who is married to former Disney actor Dylan Sprouse – was asked by the interviewer which food she wanted to ‘indulge in’ as soon as the show was over – and she’s been commended for her ‘great answer.’
Barbara appeared a little taken aback by the question and used the opportunity to subtly condemn the topic of restrictive dieting that became associated with the Victoria’s Secret image throughout the 2000s and 2010s.
Reminiscing about the 2018 show when her then boyfriend Dylan, 32, famously brought her fast food to enjoy once she was done on the runway, Barbara said: ‘Dylan brought me Shake Shack, but because I was like really, like, not eating healthy.

A reporter from Entertainment Tonight asked Barbara which food she wanted to ‘indulge in’ as soon as the show was over
‘This time around, I was listening to my body, so whatever I wanted to eat, I ate it,’ she continued, before adding: ‘And I look better than ever!’ as she looked straight down the camera lens.
TikTok users were quick to praise Barbara for how she responded, as one person wrote: ‘Ma’am that was such a good answer,’ while another said: ‘Why are we asking that question in 2024 she responded with the best answer and such grace she’s amazing.’
A third person agreed and commented: ‘Disappointing question, amazing response,’ and a fourth added: ‘It’s time to stop asking that question!!! Great response from Barbara though, I really like her.’
Someone else wrote: ‘Why are people still asking that question? She answered amazingly,’ and a different user added: ‘I just love her so much and I love her response to that second question,’ while another added: ‘This question in 2024 IS CRAZY, love how she answered.’
‘She’s such a great gal answering it that way I’m so happy to hear the difference in those answers,’ another person stated.
Barbara looked incredible when she took to the runway on Tuesday evening wearing a sexy shimmery dress which featured a daring neckline and thigh-high split.
Her look was complete with a standout pair of silver wings and matching strappy heels as she strutted her stuff with her hands on her hips.
Dylan was pictured arriving on the star-studded carpet with cardboard cut-outs of their pets – a black dog and gray cat – which Barbara also referenced during her chat with Entertainment Tonight.

When Olivia Culpo asked the Sprouse brother on the pink carpet who he wanted to see perform, he quickly shut it down.
The former child star explained he wasn’t interested in seeing the other Angels, or the performers, which included Tyla, Lisa from Blackpink and Cher.
Instead, he was all about his wife, who he married in a traditional Hungarian ceremony in July 2023.
Despite having A-list performers on-hand for the return of the major runway show, Dylan only had eyes for Barbara and replied: ‘No, don’t care – only interested in seeing my wife.’
Following the show, the happy couple were spotted walking hand-in-hand as they headed to an after party following the fashion show’s return after a six-year hiatus.
