If you think being a model is all glitz and glamour, you are dead wrong. Posing for pictures does not only require keeping fit and looking pretty but sometimes, it also requires risking one’s life.
Irina Shayk celebrated her Tahiti-shot SI Swimsuit spread
Take Irina Shayk’s sexy shoot for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit as an example: the Russian beauty had to swim with the sharks — and we mean that literally.
“There’s tons of stingrays and fish and blacktip sharks. It was kind of dangerous because a shark could literally bite my booty and the swimsuit off,” Shayk told Entertainment Tonight.
Irina talked about what it was like behind-the-scenes at her Tahiti-shot SI Swimsuit spread at a release party in New York.

Irina wore a white babydoll dress, with flapper-inspired fringe layers at the bottom. She paired the clean frock with a pair of metallic floral laser-cut sandals that revealed her pretty feet. Irina’s entire look is from Azzedine Alaïa.

The brave model not only had sharks swimming around her as she tried to post for the photos, but she also had stingrays trying to snuggle up to her.
