00:01I'm trying on this new super cute summer bikini and I'm reminded how far I've traveled in self
00:10acceptance. I will be 61 tomorrow. And I understand that this might sound crazy to you,
00:18but 40 years ago when I was 21 and when I was at the height of my career and supermodeldom,
00:28that was when I felt the most insecure. Partly because the endless comparisons to other models
00:37by the people who employed me. I never seemed to be good enough. And of course, partly because my
00:43self-worth was entirely tied to my looks. And so today I'm trying on this cute summer bikini and
00:52I have flex muscles that I've been working my cellulite butt off for. And not necessarily so
00:58I can look best in this bikini, but to feel my best in this sixth decade. You know, actually,
01:09who am I kidding? I kicked my work up like 10 notches because I do want to look my best
01:15this
01:15summer. But not necessarily in a bikini, in a wedding dress.
