"Behati Prinsloo was one of millions affected by Hurricane Sandy.\r\nAs she got ready for the Victoria&amp;apos;s Secret Fashion Show in New York City Nov. 7, the 23-year-old Namibia-born supermodel chatted with Us Weekly about how the superstorm destroyed her apartment in Manhattan&amp;apos;s East Village neighborhood.\r\n&amp;quot;Half of it was -- is -- underwater,&amp;quot; Prinsloo said. &amp;quot;My street was a river. The pictures have been scary.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nPrinsloo was working in Rome when the storm hit the East Coast; she later flew to L.A. to stay with her boyfriend of four months, Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine. &amp;quot;Everything with us has been really good,&amp;quot; she said of their four-month courtship.\r\nWhen she returned to the Big Apple to visit her apartment, Prinsloo was shocked. &amp;quot;I cried on my kitchen floor for over an hour,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;quot;At least no one got hurt -- my cats are safe. It was overwhelming coming into my house and the water was over my piano.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nLuckily, the 5-foot-10 beauty was able to find the silver lining in the wake of the devastating tragedy. &amp;quot;I found that all my material things don&amp;apos;t matter; it&amp;apos;s all about love for me friends and family. It helped me realize that,&amp;quot; Prinsloo told Us. &amp;quot;My building has been great pumping out the water and getting my couches out.&amp;quot;\r\nMore importantly, Prinsloo said, &amp;quot;Victoria&amp;apos;s Secret has donated a bunch of money to the Red Cross, and everyone else should, too!&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nFor the forseeable future, Prinsloo will be shacking up at a pal&amp;apos;s place. &amp;quot;She&amp;apos;s pregnant and alone right now, so I&amp;apos;m moving in as her boyfriend,&amp;quot; the model explained. &amp;quot;She has all these crazy pickle cravings. It&amp;apos;s so weird -- she&amp;apos;ll have a craving and then I&amp;apos;ll feel it so hard and just go to town.&amp;quot;\r\nTo find out how you can help the victims of Hurricane Sandy, click here."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
