Xandra Pohl Sizzles in Racy Bikinis

Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s next Rookie is making a splash!

DJ and TikToker Xandra Pohl, who has 1.2 million followers and is known for her viral “get ready with me videos” and vlogs, has been named one of the magazine's 2024 rookies.

SI Swim announced the news on Instagram with a behind-the-scenes look of the fiery photo shoot shot by Derek Kettela in Belize. Pohl shows a feistier side to her style in various red swim looks, from a barely-there bikini layered with a mesh cover-up to a mega cutout one-piece accentuating her curves to a lifeguard zip-up suit that channels all the Baywatch vibes.

“I feel like I’m going to come out of this like a whole new b---h,” she says in the clip, which is set to Rihanna’s “Needed Me.”

In an interview with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, Pohl shared her excitement about the magazine's "legacy" and how it continuously excels at representing women of "all shapes, sizes, races" and, in turn, sets the precedent for the next generation. “We are all beautiful [and deserve to be] confident in our own bodies. I feel like that is the best legacy you could ever leave.”

She expressed the same sentiment in a TikTok video recounting how this moment came to be. “This has been my dream since I was a wee little lad."

SI Swim editor-in-chief, MJ Day, shares that Pohl "epitomizes the unapologetic fusion of beauty and talent, shattering norms as she takes the DJ world by storm."

"Her unfiltered authenticity is what inspires us the most, and we're thrilled to be a part of her journey," she adds.

Pohl isn’t new to the SI Swimsuit universe. In July 2023, she made her debut in the brand's fashion show in Miami, radiating confidence down the runway in a bright yellow bikini and crimped waves. But being a part of the milestone issue — which includes the Be Legendary campaign — made this opportunity extra worthwhile.

“[Being] a legend is just being confident in yourself and whatever you are, whatever you stand for, just being passionate about it,” Pohl said. “I feel like if you’re passionate about it, you’re a legend.”

She’s definitely had to stand her ground in certain areas of her life, like in DJing, an industry that is mostly dominated by males.

“Some common misconceptions I think people have about me is that because of the way I look or the way that I act means that I have an inability to do something,” Pohl said, adding: “I just want people to know [that] I love who I am.” She's currently on her Drunk Tour and will play at the Lollapalooza music festival this August.

SI Swimsuit is pulling out all the stops this year. With Pohl as its newest addition, the 2024 Rookie class includes Brittany Mahomes (who revealed her title days before her husband, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, played in the 2024 Super Bowl) and seven finalists from its Swim Search, per Parade.

The magazine under Day's direction and leadership also managed an epic shoot with its past models, including Martha Stewart, Maye Musk, Christie Brinkley, Tyra Banks, Kate Upton and more iconic stars.

Christie Brinkley looks super fit

Eva Marcille is looking wild on the beach – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the Real Housewives of Atlanta star shows off her amazing body in a cheetah-print swimsuit while frolicking on the shoreline while vacationing at The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort, Puerto Rico. "Life is for the living!!!!!" she captioned the series of Instagram snaps.

Eva starts her day with coffee. "I don't eat breakfast. . .I drink breakfast, it's coffee. There's creamer in there, there's extra coffee, and then I go get more coffee," she told BravoTV.com. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. "It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function," they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.

Eva skips breakfast but makes up for it with a big lunch. "Lunch looks like the average person's Thanksgiving dinner. That's usually my largest meal," she explained. "I will go to Houston's [restaurant] and have a whole Hawaiian rib eye at 11:15 in the morning. I open up with the restaurant." She also has a baked potato and salad. "[I] try to get some greens on there, you know," she said. "As long as there's some bacon in the salad we can get that down at lunch." For her "post-lunch, pre-dinner meal," Eva eats "whatever's available," ranging from "crab fingers and dirty rice" to a Subway sandwich.

Eva is a runner. "Feeling good after my run today," she captioned a post. Eva credits her husband, Mike Sterling, for inspiring her to get out and moving. "Motivated by my amazing husband @miketsterling who leads by example and dedication." According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. "For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories," they say.

Christie Brinkley is one of the most legendary supermodels of all time. Her career has spanned decades. Brinkley is still looking amazing today, and recently celebrated her 70th birthday. She shared a set of photos on Instagram for the occasion. Brinkley captioned the post, "Looking in the mirror on my 70th Birthday and what do I see, I'm finally happy with the person looking back back at me. I'm no longer critical and demanding now I'm grateful and understanding. I've put this body thru it. I've broken every bone, in tiny miracles I'm all healed, in my heart and soul I'm home. It's taken 70 years to get here, in tears and joy I've found my happy, so now I'm going to end this poem, before I get too sappy! Happy Birthday Indeed!"

Brinkley is open about having work done. She talked about why she chose to have it done to People. "When I look in the mirror, I want to feel like I look as good as I feel. And if you can have something done to feel more confident and better about yourself, then you feel like your face matches your spirit—and my spirit is enthusiastic and energetic."

Brinkley tells People that she doesn't care what people think about her. Especially when it comes to the people who critique her plastic surgery. "There are always going to be the people who build themselves up by pulling you down. But then there are the women who are supporting women. And if there are little things that I can do that are going to make me feel great, make me look good for my job and that would be selfish of me not to share it."

Brinkley has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She shared her secrets in an interview with Byrdie. "I start every day by exfoliating my face. That's something I've done for the past 40 years. I feel like it's really contributed to my skin feeling fresh and smooth. Forty years ago, I read an article that said men always look five years younger than women who are their same age. They contributed that to them shaving every day, and the daily exfoliating with shaving their skin makes them look younger. I was like, I'm not going to let them get away with that!"

Brinkley is open about being a vegetarian. She tells Byrdie that she eats a lot of fruits and vegetables. "My diet is plant-based. I've raised my kids on what I call the 'rainbow diet.' I want as many colors as possible. These are all the ingredients that do wonderful things to your skin. The deep green, the leafy greens, the purples in the skin of the grapes, which produce all the antioxidants and vitamins you get from a colorful, rich diet like that."

Brinkley makes sure to eat healthy. She tells Byrdie that she avoids certain unhealthy foods. "I would say avoid sugar as much as possible. It causes inflammation…And can cause all kinds of problems… I think avoiding artificial sugar, avoiding white bread, and going for deep, rich, plant-based foods is best."

Christie Brinkley shows off legs in swimsuit ahead of 70th birthday

Christie Brinkley is aging like fine wine!

The 69-year-old Bellissima Prosecco founder recently took to Instagram to post a stunning bathing suit photo.

Posing in the clear blue water during a trip to Turks & Caicos, the icon showed off a strapless white swimsuit, although the focus was surely on her long legs, which she held up in the air.

The model seemed to be having fun ahead of her 70th birthday, which is coming up on Feb. 2.

“Water, Sky, Seashells and Driftwood..a few of my favorite things,” she captioned the shot, tagging Lucky House, the three-bedroom, beachfront villa she owns in Parrot Cay.

The star also included a video she took from a boat in an additional slide.

Brinkley, of course, made sure to protect her skin during her excursion, pairing her swim look with a straw hat. She also showed off the accessory in her Instagram Story, adding the text “Swim and Stretch” to another shot of her in the water.

It appears that, while in town, Brinkley attended the Annual Parrot Cay International Tennis Tournament with her son, Jack Brinkley-Cook and his Canadian tennis pro girlfriend, Genie Bouchard.

The model made sure to share a few shots of all the action in a previous post, including a few photos of Bouchard playing actor Tom Hiddleston, who also attended the event.

The Sports Illustrated covergirl is no stranger to showing off her body while on vacation. Back in 2022, she shared a few bikini pictures from the same location, lounging in a driftwood cabana.

In June of last year, the model clapped back at haters who attacked her appearance on social media.

“Update: Whoa Nelly ! The Wrinkle Brigade is out in full force in the comment thread!” she wrote in response to mean comments she received on a selfie, where people ridiculed her about chest wrinkles and the use of filler.

Thankfully, Brinkley hasn’t let the trolls stop her from sharing snippets of her life, also recently revealing that she’ll be keeping her famous blond hair despite “pressure” to “go gray” as she ages.

And, she’s hoping to pass the baton on to other stars like 77-year-old Dolly Parton, whom Brinkley suggested should cover Sports Illustrated Swim after her statement-making Dallas Cowboys game performance in November.

Sailor Brinkley-Cook shows off her incredible figure

Sailor Brinkley-Cook is heating up social media with her latest swimsuit snaps. The daughter of Christie Brinkley and Peter Cook shows off her incredible figure in a bathing suit while posing on the shoreline. "Gorgeous," she captioned the Instagram photo.

Sailor openly discusses her body image issues and the importance of self-love. "I've grown up with a lot of body issues. I spent my entire life being so insecure," she told InStyle. "When I did my first bikini shoot, I was worried because I don't even have boobs; I'm a B cup. I don't have all of these intensified assets that many bikini models do. Why should I be considered sexy?" Modeling helped give her the confidence to "own" who and what" she is "at such a bare, raw state," she explained.

"I really felt like I was celebrating my body and my womanhood." More recently she shared about her struggles with body dysmorphia. "I've been so down on myself recently. Crying about my cellulite, letting the fat on my body ruin my day, getting mad that I'm not as skinny as I once was," she wrote in an Instagram post. "The body dysmorphia and left over eating disorder tendencies have been coming in strong. "As I come into myself as a young woman my body shifts and changes by the month, the 'control' I felt I once had over it has been completely stripped away from me. Hormones, emotions, growing pains."

Sailor sweats daily. "In general, I try to work out every day. A normal workout would start with cardio. I'm a big runner—I try to run two miles a day. Then I work out with my trainer at Work Train Fight, doing HIIT workouts like burpees and lunges. If I need a day off, I'll do yoga or something low-intensity," she told InStyle.

Sailor regularly cuts sugar out of her diet – especially right before a shoot or show. "I start cutting sugar 10 days before. Every time I stop eating sugar, it's immediate, and when you're going to the gym every day, cutting out sugar changes the game. I see myself getting a lot more shredded," she said.

Sailor prioritizes hydration. "You want to be hydrated because it shows up in the way your skin looks, in the way that your body looks, in the way that you're acting and feeling," she told InStyle. "24 hours before a shoot, I'm drinking a crazy amount of water—I'm talking like three gallons." According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day and women about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids.

Sailor eats "as clean as possible," she told InStyle. She also avoids processed food. "Lots of lean protein. I'm vegan so I can't have grilled chicken or salmon, but I go for salads with quinoa and beans and fresh vegetables and then something light, like a sautéed vegetable dish, for dinner."

Sailor loves walking. "I think that's a really underrated thing people don't do enough when they're feeling stressed out. Especially in the city, I'll put my phone in my pocket, put my headphones in, and I'll just play my favorite music and take a walk around the city. You just see all these different people of all different walks of life, and the art on the streets, and little fluffy dogs. All these little things remind you that, Okay, we're all in this together, we're going through it, you've got to make the best of it. That really helps me a lot when I'm feeling chaotic," she told Glamour.

she went for a hike on Vancouver Island. "Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between," says the National Parks Service. Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.

Christie Brinkley, 68, shows off ‘sexy’ bikini body

Supermodel Christie Brinkley is heating things up with a sizzling bikini snap.

The 68-year-old took to Instagram Tuesday to share the love on Valentine’s Day, and it included flaunting her fit physique at the beach.

"Hope everyone is feeling the LOVE!!" Brinkley said on her social media post with a red heart emoji.

The former Sports Illustrated model showed off her toned body in a two-piece red bikini with a red and white cover-up. Brinkley topped off her look with a straw cowboy hat. In one photo she’s seen smiling, posing with her hands in a heart shape.

She also included a video in her post, showing "Happy Valentine’s Day!" with a heart spelled out in the sand.

Her mini-me daughter, Sailor Brinkley Cook, commented on her mother’s post, calling her "Sexy."

While her son, 27-year-old Jack Brinkley Cook, added "I love you so much!" Brinkley responded writing, "I love you more my Sonshine!!"

Other fans of Brinkley pointed out that she was a "Sexy mama."

In her latest posts, Brinkley appeared to be at her seaside villa in Turks & Caicos named Lucky House.

As she soaked up the sun, she shared some health tips on staying hydrated with her over 800,000 followers.

"7 Benefits of Coconut Water… Good source of several nutrients… May have antioxidant properties…" Brinkley said in part.

The blonde bombshell recently celebrated her birthday with her close family and friends.

Brinkley shares two kids with her ex-husband Peter Cook. The pair were married from 1996 until 2008. The couple split after Brinkley learned of Cook's alleged affair with his 19-year-old assistant.

We Can't Believe How Incredible Christie Brinkley Looks In A Bikini, She Never Ages

It isn’t just her age-defying face that Christie Brinkley’s fans are obsessed with, as the 68-year-old supermodel regularly proves that her physique is still as enviable as ever thanks to the super-racy pictures she shares of herself in swimwear. (If we had her body, we would do the same!)

We are always in awe of Christie’s figure, so we regularly go through her Instagram account to ask ourselves whether she is as flawless as we remember; and the answer is always yes!

We were particularly obsessed with two bikini pictures she shared to the gram in January 2020, just a few months before the world entered into the global pandemic that younger generations will scratch their heads in disbelief at! And disbelief is the operative word when it comes to Christie’s bikini body, because it’s pretty unfathomable how she manages to look so incredible in a teeny tiny two-piece!

In one picture, which the former face of Cover Girl shared on January 5th, 2020, she can be seen posing for a mirror selfie while rocking a black halter-neck bikini top with a cute white floral motif on the front. She kept things classy yet sexy by adding a sheer white sarong to cover her matching bikini bottoms, and wore her hair tied back. All eyes, of course, were on her rock-hard abs, which were sculpted to perfection!

Later that month, on January 16th to be exact, Christie shared yet another mirror selfie to warm her fans up in the cold, January temperatures. The picture sees the model applying some lip gloss to her lips, while wearing another ab-baring black micro bikini. We love her swimwear accessory game, as she rocked a white lace kimono and an oversized straw beach hat.

“You look absolutely great!!!!!” one fan exclaimed. “Still beautiful beyond belief,” gushed another. “Wow nearly 70yrs old and looking like 48 well done,” commended another, followed by the hand clapping emoji. “Beautiful and Sexy,” wrote another fan, followed by the red heart emoji and the heart eyes emoji.

Denise Austin was stunned when Sports Illustrated Swimsuit asked if she would walk down the runway in a bikini

The fitness icon joined her daughter, SI Swim model Katie Austin, at the 2022 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Runway Show in July. The mother and daughter proudly rocked two pieces on the catwalk for the live broadcast show at the W South Beach pool in Miami Beach, Florida.

"At first, I thought, ‘Am I really doing this? Are you kidding me? In a bikini at age 65?’" Denise Austin chuckled. "But how exhilarating that was! It was this amazing, natural high. It was an honor that they even asked me. And then to do this with my daughter made it even more special. It was the highlight of my life to walk the runway with my daughter. I’m still not over it."

The former gymnast shared that her daughter, 28, has been an inspiration to her.

"It brought tears to my eyes [when I first saw her in SI]," Austin explained. "I was just so proud of her. She’s just the sweetest person with the biggest heart. And she’s a hard worker. She tried out for it three different years through Swim Search, so it’s not like this was given to her. And I’m just so proud because this has been a dream of hers. I remember seeing Christie Brinkley and Kathy Ireland on the cover and thinking how that was such a big deal. So it’s amazing to see my daughter in the magazine. And she will now always be a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model."

For more than 30 years, Austin has been encouraging people to kick off an active lifestyle through her workout routines. She has sold more than 24 million exercise videos and DVDs. She also led the longest-running fitness show in TV history. She is still bursting with energy and enthusiasm while doing a "total body burn cardio" or training to be "lean, toned and totally fit" – all with a megawatt smile.

"Shoes are the most important thing you need whether you’re walking or doing any form of fitness," she explained. "When Easy Spirit asked me to collaborate, I was so excited, because I love their shoes, but I also wanted to make a more fun style with benefits. One shoe is great for power walking that’s also very lightweight… the other is for walking fast or running. I created both styles, but I walk at least 35 minutes a day. I wanted something where I can go out and walk my dog, casually wear to Pilates, or just for running errands. I’m always in athletic wear, so it made sense."

Austin said that low-impact workouts often get overlooked, but there are plenty of benefits for those needing some motivation.

If all it takes to look like Christie Brinkley is gratitude and low-sugar wine, sign us up

The supermodel graced the cover of Social Life magazine this month, showing off her enviable figure at 68 in a sexy, black belted swimsuit.

Christie Brinkley — who owns her own vegan, organic wine brand, Bellissima — lifts a glass of rosé in her cover moment, and she credits both her low-sugar wine and “true gratitude” for her perpetually young appearance.

‘The zero-sugar sparkling wine was a runaway hit and a personal favorite of mine,” the entrepreneur said. “I love the idea that I can enjoy a glass of wine and stick to my healthy lifestyle.”

“You know a lot of people ask me: ‘Why are you always smiling?’ Why do you seem so happy no matter what?'” she said in the interview. “I really think at the root of everything is true gratitude.”

“Gratitude is what works for me, and I start every day by counting all the reasons I have to be grateful,” she said, adding, “By the end of the list how can I not be happy? Counting my blessings is truly the secret to happiness and being full of energy and life.”

Sailor Brinkley Cook works on her tan in the backyard

She is just like her mother, the effervescent 1980s supermodel Christie Brinkley who starred in the film Vacation and posed for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition several times.

Now Sailor Brinkley Cook looked radiant as she showed off her toned, tanned figure in a bright yellow bikini while enjoying some fresh air in the backyard of a home.

The model has recently returned from the island of Ischia in Italy where she celebrated her 24th birthday.

The 24-year-old Sports Illustrated model appeared to be in a good mood as she sunbathed, dined on lobster and pasta, and went swimming with her female pals in Italy.

Sailor wrote revealing how she used to worry that her 'muscular and shapely' legs looked manly.

The star is known for expressing her doubts on social media.

'Idk what happened but I popped out the womb with a lot of leg muscle. My calves at 7 years old looked like I was a marathon bike racer,' she quipped.

'Since I was little it's been an insecurity of mine that they make my body look "masculine",' Sailor candidly revealed, sharing: 'It's always been hard not to compare myself to women with thin dainty legs.'

Even now when her mother showed her recent photographs, Sailor was repulsed by the look of her legs and of her figure in general.

Christie Brinkley is a good example that age is just a number

Christie Brinkley rocked an itty bitty blue bikini in a series of photos, with the 68-year-old posing on a stylish island cabana bed as she revealed she’s been getting her body ready for summer.

Brinkley, who wore a beachy ankle bracelet as she raised her arms in excitement, shared that she’ll be appearing live on QVC.

Showing that beauty is ageless, Brinkley has spoken out about continuing to wear bikinis in her sixties.

“I post these pictures because I hear from women my age all the time that say, ‘Thank you for changing the way people think about the numbers,’” she told Fox News in 2021.

“Everybody’s different, everybody’s unique,” she said. “But it’s like telling a gymnast she can’t do flips past a certain age. It doesn’t make sense. If you’ve got great legs, show them … Don’t be controlled by those numbers.”

Jenny Powell will wear bikinis forever

Jenny Powell has said menopause left her on the brink of depression. But she is fighting back - by wearing bikinis until she is the age 70.

"I can't believe Christie Brinkley posed in a bikini recently and got slagged off for it because she's 67. She looked unbelievable. Whether or not 'I'm still allowed' to wear a bikini is just not something I would think about.

"They discussed whether women should wear bikinis in their 50s on Loose Women once. What a load of tosh! Will I still be wearing a bikini in my 60s and 70s? Hell yeah! I'm accepting of myself and I'm going to embrace my moments of feeling great and people can take it or leave it."

She shared: "My periods were awful, I'd have to change about five times a day and I lost that much blood I became anemic. I'd struggle to get out of bed and I couldn't wait to go back to bed at night. I left it too long to get it sorted, so in the end, had to have iron infusions in hospital."

She added: "Take it or leave it! Live your life the way you want to, and never mind what other people think! I tell my kids .. in life, there are ‘no rules,’ just guidance and if your gut is telling you otherwise then go with it. The menopause journey is an interesting one and I’m constantly tweaking and adjusting my approach to living with/through it."

Nina Agdal is baring it all

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model posted a completely nude shoot. The model uploaded a silhouette of her nude body overlooking the sunset in Switzerland.

"Happy to report the saunas in Switzerland in fact are hotter than most," she captioned that photo.

Nina Agdal is reportedly single after she and Jack Brinkley-Cook, Christie Brinkley’s son, called it quits in Nov. 2021 after four years of dating. She previously dated Leonardo DiCaprio for nearly a year before they broke up in 2017. However, insiders have insisted the pair remain pals.

The actor, 47, is currently involved with 24-year-old model Camila Morrone.

Agdal, who grew up playing basketball in her native Denmark, has appeared in six Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues. According to the outlet, she made her first appearance in 2012 and earned the "Rookie of the Year" title. In 2014, the model appeared on the cover alongside Chrissy Teigen and Lily Aldridge. Recently, Agdal launched her own fitness app.

Christie Brinkley is still an uptown girl

The former Sports Illustrated model, Christie Brinkley, 67, posted a new pic of herself wearing a tiny black bikini, knit coverup, and a large hat, before hitting the beach.

While there were some trolls among the praise, Brinkley has previously said she continues to show off sexy snaps for other women her age.

“I post these pictures because I hear from women my age all the time that say, ‘Thank you for changing the way people think about the numbers,’” she said last year.

“Everybody’s different, everybody’s unique,” she added. “But it’s like telling a gymnast she can’t do flips past a certain age. It doesn’t make sense. If you’ve got great legs, show them … Don’t be controlled by those numbers.”

Despite other supermodels like Paulina Porizkova, 56, returning to the pages of Sports Illustrated decades after their first appearances — as well as daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook making the first-ever second-generation appearance in the glossy in 2017 — Brinkley, says her bikini days are now purely for fun.

“Been there, done that,” she exclaimed.

Christie Brinkley is turning 67 and she still rocking swimwear

The supermodel, long celebrated for her all-American good looks, turned 67 this year. And during quarantine amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover girl was keeping busy.

Christie Brinkley spoke about turning 67, going viral on social media, her specific beauty needs and whether she’ll pose for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit again.

She is proud of turning 67 and told “I’m just so full of gratitude for each and every day. I’ve always been that way, but I think the older you get, the more you realize how precious each day is. You know, I really dedicate myself to making sure that I really enjoy my day as much as I possibly can and make time for friends. With age comes a real abundance of gratitude and awareness of just how lucky we are.”

She loves herself and is happy to still wearing swimwear, she revealed, “I post these pictures because I hear from women my age all the time that say, "Thank you for changing the way people think about the numbers." Back in the day, numbers represented something. I remember people thinking that after 30, you should never wear your hair past your shoulders or your hemline needed to hover your knee caps.

I’ve always found those rules so limiting. Everybody’s different, everybody’s unique. But it’s like telling a gymnast she can’t do flips past a certain age. It doesn’t make sense. If you’ve got great legs, show them. If there’s something about yourself that you really love, celebrate that. Don’t be controlled by those numbers.”

Christie Brinkley wants her younger fans to feel confident in their skin and she used an epic throwback photo of herself from the 1970s to get her point across

The 65-year-old blonde bombshell treated her half a million Instagram followers to a cover she shot for Cosmopolitan in 1977, in which she dons a very high-waisted purple bikini.

The model looks flawless as the bikini string is wrapped around her tight frame and she runs her hands through her short, wavy hair. But in a lengthy caption underneath the photo, Brinkley admitted just how body conscious she was at the time of the photoshoot.

"They did not have retouching back then so they really perfected the make up and every strand of hair. I remember I was worried that I looked fat," Brinkley confessed.

The seasoned model then shared how she feels about today's industry standards.

I'm so glad that today our industry appreciates all shapes and sizes so we can just focus on being healthy. Not cookie cutter. Still there is something in some young girls that often makes them feel like they just don't measure up. I was one of them," she continued.

"I look back at these and think worry was such a waste of time. If only the perspective we gain with age that alleviates the worries, (sic) could be passed on and absorbed by the younger generation...but I do think shifting the focus to feeling great is a giant step in the right direction."

Fast-forward to today and Brinkley's confidence has paid off. The former supermodel is often praised for how she appears to have never aged and is told she looks like her 21-year-old daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook's twin.

Christie Brinkley spent New Years Eve in Turks and Caicos with friends and family, kicking off 2020 with some exploration under the sun

The 65-year-old model and actress looked stunning in a teeny red bikini as she sailed through the “beautiful islands” surrounding Parrot Cay where she attended Donna Karan’s annual New Years Eve dinner. She even revealed how she was getting a quick start on her resolution “to go to places we’ve never been in 2020.”

”On the first day of the year we ventured a little further and we found three beautiful islands just around the bend!” she captioned the post.

“May your new year be full of happy beautiful adventures near far and even within your heart and soul!”

And although Brinkley was sailing with her son, commenters couldn’t believe how youthful she looked.

Multiple others called the mother of three an “inspiration” and provided well wishes for the new year, which Brinkley rang in while “dancing on tabletops.”

Sailor Brinkley-Cook isn’t wasting time flaunting her enviable bikini bod

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model posted a sizzling snap rocking a pink string bikini that proudly flaunted her coveted curves.

“Everythings just peachy keen,” boasted the 21-year-old, noting her beach-ready.

The blonde bombshell is the daughter of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit icon Christie Brinkley and architect Peter Cook. The 21-year-old recently took her mother’s place on the latest season of “Dancing with the Stars" following the veteran cover girl’s injuries during rehearsals. Brinkley-Cook was ultimately eliminated third, leaving the mother-daughter duo “heartbroken.”

"She was just as heartbroken as I am," Brinkley-Cook told Entertainment Tonight in October 2019. "I don't think that any of my close family or friends, they didn't think that this would happen. So I was not only sad that this experience ended for me, but for them too. Because they loved watching, they loved tuning in. They were always my biggest support system. My mom was always so excited," she continued. "She was planning on coming back [to the ballroom] next week. Everyone sort of had this idea that they were going to have this show to root on."
