I’m On the Cover of Sports Illustrated Swim!!!

from Hot Mess · host Alix Earle

I genuinely still cannot believe this happened. After 5 flights, 3 hours of sleep, a 3:40 am call time, and thunderstorms all morning while we literally prayed for the sun to come out, we somehow made it to our Sports Illustrated Swim shoot in Botswana!! We shot nearly 20 looks, got the BEST behind the scenes footage ever, and then somewhere in the middle of it all I found out I was the Sports Illustrated Swim COVER GIRL?!?! You guys seriously have no idea what this means to me. The next day, we went on safari and saw lions, elephants, zebras, hippos… the whole trip honestly felt like a crazy dream.  I’m so grateful I get to share moments like this with you guys.
