What was 2018 without celebrity nude photoshoots? From Kim Kardashian’s KKW Fragance campaign to Emily Ratajkowski’s butt-baring Instagrams, 2018 was filled with naked celebrity pictures, and we wouldn’t have had it any other way. And though it’s not uncommon for drop trou in front of the internet (when they’re not showing their nipples on the red carpet, they’re taking to Instagram to post their best belfies), there’s something about a celebrity nude photoshoot.

Like Little Mix, Culpo used her nude photoshoot for Sports Illustrated in February to make a point. The model appeared in the magazine with words like, “woman” and “love transforms,” painted on her body. She explained what they meant on her Instagram: “All of the words and phrases I chose for my body are a reflection of my fears, insecurities, and struggles. It took intense self-reflection which can be challenging but I knew if I could be completely candid then more women might realize we are much more alike than we think. We struggle in so many of the same ways. We are all so beautiful when we have the courage to make ourselves vulnerable and real- – And we should never be ashamed!”
