Culpo went all out for her Sports Illustrated shoot.
Every year, Sports Illustrated draws the attention men everywhere as they deliver their Swimsuit Issue that features some the most beautiful women in the world. This year, Tyra Banks, Camille Kostek, and Alex Morgan were the three cover models, while a plethora others got to be featured within the pages. Actress Oli Culpo was amongst one the models in the Banks issue and had some pretty racy photos taken her. Today, Sports Illustrated posted a video on their Instagram account which shows some behind the scenes footage Culpo’s shoot.
One the most striking scenes from the whole thing is when she posed topless with a snake draped over her. Culpo must have had nerves steel during that whole scenario as snakes aren’t anything to mess with, especially when they’re being placed on you.
“It was amazing,” Culpo said Daily Mail. ‘There are some pretty cool photos where it looks like I’m just being covered by a snake, so I think the photos are going to be awesome. When I was holding the python I was definitely nervous and then I’m really nervous just leading up to it because I want to make sure that I’m doing everything I can to feel the best and hopefully make the best picture. So there’s a lot pressure for sure.”
We’re sure Culpo was relieved to get the snake f her, although props to her for doing anything to get the picture right.
