Happy Birthday, Kate Upton: 21 Awkward Twitter Pickup Lines

Sports Illustrated swimsuit covergirl Kate Upton turned 21 on Monday, and Twitter was full of wonderfully awkward pickup lines from her smitten fans.

Upton, of course, is no stranger to causing a stir on social media. There's the time she tweeted a photo of a Russian doppelganger, sending male admirers the world over into hysterics. There's the time a Final Four hero used his moment in the spotlight to hit on her via Twitter. Then there's the enterprising young man who made a YouTube video asking her to prom (she declined, but he bagged another model instead).

But Upton's 21st birthday gave hundreds of fans the perfect in to smoothly see if she wanted to "meet up," "grab some drinks" or otherwise "hang out." Suffice to say, we're pretty sure none of these brave young men (and some women) got a call — er, tweet — back from the birthday girl.

But, hey — you miss 100% of the shots you don't take, and the tweets are pretty funny to read. Here are 21 of our favorites. Check them out below, then add your own in the comments.
