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.
An Unbelievable Journey to Heaven and Hell
A Romanian man describes his amazing experience of experiencing both paradise and hell in an engrossing YouTube video. He talks about how he saw “a magnificent gate that perfectly reflected his own body” and came to the conclusion that “the soul receives a new form while the body decays in the ground.” He was led by angels and felt unfathomable bliss and weightlessness in heaven.
A list of his transgressions was shown to him, but he was also informed that “a place in heaven had been prepared for him and his loved ones.” When he saw his parents, who had passed away, the angels told him to give his father some time to rest. His spiritual rebirth was witnessed by his mother. The guy observed that the angels and Jesus both had “a radiant brightness” about them and that they were both without wings and dressed in “immaculate white clothing, with hair as white as snow.”
He witnessed a passage of flames in hell and many souls calling out for assistance. “All his sins, as vast as the sands of the sea, were forgiven through the blood of His beloved son, Jesus,” a massive figure of God assured him. His wife woke up at a morgue, expecting to get ready for his funeral, and was shocked to see him still alive.
Everyone is urged to choose salvation before the grace period expires by this story, which serves as a reminder that salvation and redemption are always achievable.
