“I’m Naomi Osaka and we are currently in Malibu, California. We are shooting the cover, well yeah, my first cover of the SI Swimsuit. It feels really amazing just growing up and Napa Kenai book watching so many incredible women grace discover. For me, feels like a dream. I remember Tyra Banks’ issue, I remember Beyonce’s.”
Naomi Osaka didn’t hide the fact that she felt not 100% comfortable at the beginning to add: “I do have a bit of nerves being photographed in a bikini just because I feel like it’s something that I’ve never done before so it’s a tiny bit out of my element. Shooting with your style is really fun. It’s really incredible to just work with him because I growing up, I used to watch America’s Next Top Model. So of course, I was really nervous walking into it but I don’t know, he’s just really fun.”
