Ronda Rousey confirmed the news this morning on Instagram that she will be appearing in Sports Illustrated’s 2016 swimsuit issue wearing nothing but body paint.
The ‘We Are Handsome’ inspired cossie that took 14 hours to paint will last little time in the water but either way, we can witness Rousey in the flesh, and it takes little imagination to declare Rousey a total knockout (sorry we had to).
“I was one of the lucky few chosen to be a canvas for a hand painted masterpiece by [body paint artist Joanne Gair] @joannegair that took 14 hours to put on and be photographed by the brilliant [Frederic Pinet] @fredericpinet,” she wrote. “Can’t wait to show you guys the final pics [when] the issue hits stands!”
