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.
The old dog found and rescued the puppy who was freezing in the snow
An old dog named Ben found a puppy sleeping in the snow.He decided to come to his aid and take him somewhere warm. Ben practically immobilized the child by grabbing him by the scruff of the neck with his fangs and dragging him inside the warm sanctuary.
Ben’s owner was a generous individual who felt obliged to help the cold puppy. The dog pulled the baby inside and laid him down on his bedding. The dog could not get warm and continued to shiver.
The baby’s owner made him some milk, which he took a few sips of before turning away because he was too sick to continue drinking. With time, the shaking stopped, and the puppy was able to sleep. But he was a restless sleeper who trembled and complained all the time.
The baby slept for quite some time. When he woke up, the stranger looked him over. He detested how the animal’s legs looked. Wrapped in a blanket, he brought the dog to the veterinarian. After evaluating the patient, the physician suggested a course of action.
