Once she decided to go through with the photoshoot she set a few ground rules. She wasn’t going to starve herself and she didn’t want any retouching of her photos, except for “a few dimples on her thighs.”
“My grandmother said to me [when I was little], ‘Mother nature was not as kind to you as she was to other little girls. Maybe you need to start wearing makeup.’ I just never saw myself this way.”
She added, “I know what I look like before I go into hair and makeup, so it’s hard for me to go from that to [the cover]. That’s something I have to process myself.”
King had nothing to worry about.
When she arrived at the photo shoot in Mexico, she said photographer Yu Tsai made her feel like “Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry all rolled into one.”
“I felt so comfortable and cared for that I didn’t even have time to feel self-conscious.”
“I never in a million years thought I would be standing here in a bathing suit for Sports Illustrated [Swimsuit], but here I am, which says to me that sometimes people can dream, God can dream, the universe can dream a bigger dream than you can ever think for yourself,” King told Sports
Illustrated. “I would have never thought this was possible. This was nowhere on my bucket list. So I’m thinking maybe it was a dream that I didn’t even know I wanted because now that I’m here, I want it bad.”
Gayle looks amazing! I think it’s wonderful how Sports Illustrated showcases all different ages, body types, and races in their issue. We’re not all the same, and everyone deserves to be represented.
How to remove set-in grease stains from laundry
Grease stains are among the most stubborn to get rid of. Sometimes, if the piece of clothing that got greased isn’t the newest one or one of our favorite, we can just get rid of it by throwing it in the trash, but if we are attached to it, we’ll do everything to save it and wear it again and again.
One way to get rid of the grease stains, which is apparently a very practical one and makes wonders, is using Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam.
And somehow it does make sense. If the dish foam cuts through grease, then what stops it from cutting through the grease left on a fabric?
Using it for this specific purpose is a straightforward process. You simply put it directly on the stain, leave it for around 5 minutes or more, and then wash it with your usual detergent. In case the grease is very stubborn, repeat the process more than once.
What’s best about this method is that it treats grease stains on various materials, including cotton, jeans, and polyester. It also works on old stains.
If you are to try this on delicate fabrics, do a patch test just to make sure the piece of clothing won’t get ruined.
This is an excellent trick that can save you time when doing the laundry, especially if that’s an activity you are not fond of.
