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.
At 56, Julia Roberts causes stir as she debuts new hairstyle for fans – “not the same person”
Julia Roberts is known for her ever-changing hairstyles, and her latest switch-up may be the most eye-catching yet. The iconic actress, usually seen with darker hair, recently debuted luscious blonde locks on Instagram. The post garnered plenty of praise, but reactions on Facebook were mixed.
Some fans loved the new look, while others had reservations. Comments like “Not the same person,” and “Bleached blonde is not for her,” dominated the conversation. Others felt that “Red is so much prettier,” and one speculated, “She probably went with blond because she is grey. Blond covers grey better.”
Roberts has always been a trendsetter, and her hair transformations are no exception. Despite some negative feedback, her bold choices in style and fashion keep her in the spotlight.
Earlier this year, Roberts shared one of her biggest regrets in an interview with Vogue: not going to college. “I couldn’t. It wasn’t in my cards,” she revealed. “My family didn’t have the money. And I had no scholarship potential. That kind of thing.”
Roberts’ candid reflections and evolving style demonstrate her ability to surprise and inspire fans. Whether she’s donning dark locks or going blonde, the actress continues to make waves in the industry. Her latest hair transformation is just another example of her enduring appeal and ability to keep her audience guessing.
