Cindy Kimberly is the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue's newest rookie

Model Cindy Kimberly, who shot to fame in 2015 when Justin Bieber shared her photo, is now a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue rookie.

The magazine announced this week that Cindy, 23, is the 'latest addition to the SI Swim Family,' and posed for the upcoming issue in a very tiny white bikini.

It's certainly a meteoric rise for the Dutch-born stunner, who became instantly recognizable at age 17 when Bieber shared a snapshot of her face with the adoring caption: 'Omg who is this!!'

Justin's photo of Cindy received a lot of attention, and she has since gone on to model for brands including Marc Jacobs, Boohoo, and Savage x Fenty.

She's also posed for Maxim, GQ Spain, Cosmopolitan Spain, Elle Spain, Vanity Fair Spain, and Glamour Spain.

Now she's adding Sports Illustrated to the list with a shoot by photographer Ben Watts in Barbados this year.

In the photo that was released yesterday, Cindy wears a too-small white bikini top while her curly hair cascades around her shoulders.

She smiles at the camera and holds up her right arm, showing off a tattoo.
