Jason Statham can't keep his hands off gorgeous girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

She's the stunning Victoria's Secret model who has forayed into acting with her role in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

And in addition to that, she has just topped Maxim magazine's annual hot 100 list.

So it's no wonder Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's boyfriend Jason Statham couldn't resist pulling the 24-year-old beauty in for a kiss at the Met Gala afterparty held at New York's Standard Hotel.

With his eyes closed and hand firmly placed on Rosie's back, Statham appeared to be thoroughly enjoying his passionate embrace.

Rosie had earlier wowed as she posed on the red carpet in a daring pink Burberry Prorsum gown which was slashed both at the front and at the back.

She teamed the dress with a pair of white strappy sandals, a matching bag and pretty dangly earrings.

Earlier in the day Rosie had looked a lot more casual, however, as she enjoyed a day out shopping with Jason.

Wearing a pretty printed floral dress, brown boots and matching hat, Rosie succeeded in looking trendy and summery in her outfit.

Rosie and Jason, 43, have been dating for a year and both ditched Britain to live together in Los Angeles.

The model’s move to LA came as she nabbed a role in the upcoming new installment in the Transformers film franchise and her acting career seems to be moving from strength to strength.

Earlier this month Rosie won a gong for Female Star of Tomorrow at the CinemaCon Awards for her debut film role.

But, speaking recently about starring alongside leading man Shia LaBeouf, Rosie admitted she felt incredibly insecure about the pair's kissing scene.

She said: '‘I had to wear heels the whole way through filming. When it came to our kissing scene, I said [to director Michael Bay], ‘Please let me take my shoes off! I feel so unelegant and I feel so unfeminine’.

‘He said no, "You’re giving small men across America hope!" '

Rosie added: 'It was great working with Shia. He’s such an intelligent guy. He’s worked so hard on these movies. He really held my hand like a baby the whole way through.’

Though Rosie Huntington-Whiteley may not be most well-known, she certainly has been noticed enough to top Maxim’s "Hot 100" list.

Access Hollywood confirms that the star of the latest Transformers film stole the top spot on the annual "Hot 100" list.

Maxim’s Editor-in-Chief Joe Levy said of the British actress, “Rosie is a true transformer – a Victoria’s Secret stunner who is about to go supernova when she takes over for Megan Fox in the Transformers franchise –her talent is as undeniable as her beauty, which is pretty jaw-droppingly undeniable.”

On her top spot, Huntington-Whiteley told Maxim, “[It] is a huge honor. It’s a great title to have for a year and you can have some fun with it, I think.”

Also on the list are Olivia Munn (second on the list), Katy Perry (third), Cameron Diaz (fourth), and Mila Kunis (fifth).

Jason Statham and Rosie Huntington- Whiteley enjoy romantic lunch

     Jason Statham's ex-girlfriend Kelly Brook has just announced her first pregnancy. But it's clear that the actor has long since moved on. As he walked hand-in-hand with his Victoria's Secret model girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley today they couldn't have appeared more in love.

     Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham were spotted heading to lunch together at Taverna Tony's in Malibu yesterday.

     The happy couple exchanged romantic glances as they headed out for lunch together yesterday  in Malibu, California. The pair dined outside on the terrace at Mediterranean restaurant Taverna Tony's before walking hand in hand back to their car.

     Rosie, 23, looked casual in slim fit jeans and a grey long-sleeved T-shirt while her beau donned an equally as relaxed out fit of loose-fit grey trousers, a black polo shirt and a baseball cap.

     The pair, who began dating in April 2010, have been rumoured to be engaged since Rosie was spotted last month wearing a gold ring on her ring finger. They have even been spotted checking out property in the Hollywood Hills on the hunt for an LA love nest.

    Jason, 43, previously dated British actress Kelly who this week announced she is expecting her first child with boyfriend Thom Evans. The pair were together for seven years but split in 2004.

     Rosie, meanwhile has recently made the jump from modelling to acting and will make her big screen début later this year in the blockbuster Transformers 3: Dark Of The Moon. Before she met Jason she had been dating French actor Olivier Martinez, who is now in a relationship with Halle Berry.
