Once she decided to go through with the photoshoot she set a few ground rules. She wasn’t going to starve herself and she didn’t want any retouching of her photos, except for “a few dimples on her thighs.”
“My grandmother said to me [when I was little], ‘Mother nature was not as kind to you as she was to other little girls. Maybe you need to start wearing makeup.’ I just never saw myself this way.”
She added, “I know what I look like before I go into hair and makeup, so it’s hard for me to go from that to [the cover]. That’s something I have to process myself.”
King had nothing to worry about.
When she arrived at the photo shoot in Mexico, she said photographer Yu Tsai made her feel like “Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry all rolled into one.”
“I felt so comfortable and cared for that I didn’t even have time to feel self-conscious.”
“I never in a million years thought I would be standing here in a bathing suit for Sports Illustrated [Swimsuit], but here I am, which says to me that sometimes people can dream, God can dream, the universe can dream a bigger dream than you can ever think for yourself,” King told Sports
Illustrated. “I would have never thought this was possible. This was nowhere on my bucket list. So I’m thinking maybe it was a dream that I didn’t even know I wanted because now that I’m here, I want it bad.”
Gayle looks amazing! I think it’s wonderful how Sports Illustrated showcases all different ages, body types, and races in their issue. We’re not all the same, and everyone deserves to be represented.
YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHAT BRIGITTE BARDOT’S 63-YEAR-OLD SON LOOKS LIKE TODAY
Brigitte Bardot is a well-known French actress, and Nicolas-Jacques Bardot is her only son. He was born in 1960. Initially, Brigitte wasn’t sure if she wanted to have a child, but her love for Jacques Charrier, the actor she was with, led her to keep the baby and marry him.
Brigitte Bardot didn’t want the public or paparazzi to see her while she was pregnant, so she stayed at home and even gave birth there. She was nervous about holding her newborn son and wasn’t sure about being a mother. All she wanted was to get back to her acting career as soon as possible.
After their baby was born, Brigitte Bardot and Jacques Charrier set up a photoshoot to show journalists that they had a happy family life. The actress managed to look loving and happy in the pictures. These photos were then sold to a major publication for a good price.
Brigitte Bardot and Jacques Charrier soon divorced, and their son, Nicolas-Jacques, stayed with his father. Jacques wanted to raise Nicolas-Jacques himself, and Bardot agreed to this arrangement.
Nicolas-Jacques studied economics at a well-known university in Paris. He also had a passion for music and enjoyed making his own tunes. At 22, he approached the famous designer Pierre Cardin to explore a career in modeling.
While working in the fashion industry, Nicolas-Jacques met Anna-Lin, and they got married in Oslo. They have two daughters together. Initially, Brigitte Bardot was hesitant to accept her granddaughters, but eventually, she grew closer to them.
Today, Nicolas-Jacques works in computer programming and technology. He remains deeply in love with his wife, and together they are happily raising their grandchildren.
