Paulina Porizkova is embracing her 61st birthday with joy. Earlier this week, the former supermodel shared a voiceover video of herself sporting a “super cute” red and white bikini. In this clip, she reflected on her confidence levels from four decades ago, stating that at the peak of her career, she felt her most insecure.
“I turn 61 tomorrow. This might sound a bit odd, but when I was 21, and in my prime as a supermodel, that’s when I felt really insecure,” she shared in the video.
Porizkova expressed that she “didn’t feel like I was good enough” back then because her self-esteem was “completely tied to” how she perceived herself. It’s a sentiment that many can probably relate to.
She mentioned she’s been increasing her workout routine as summer nears, aiming not so much to look perfect in a bikini but to feel the best she has in decades.
Wrapping up her video, she joked, “Who am I kidding? This summer, I want to feel my best for a wedding, not just in a bikini.” She concluded with a playful kiss to the camera, revealing her engagement ring from producer Jeff Greenstein.
Porizkova, in the video, donned a tea-length sundress while accessorizing with a black belt, sunglasses, and a beach bag. Her followers chimed in with thousands of comments showering her with compliments about her looks and confidence.
Model Lily Aldridge noted, “Beautiful inside and out.” Another follower added, “Amazing!! Please own it.” Many echoed sentiments of admiration, encouraging her to celebrate her figure and health.
Porizkova responded, saying, “I’m blessed with a healthy, slim, tall body. The rest is just a lot of hard work!”
