AceShowbiz - Ashley Graham flaunts her curvy figure in a sexy bikini for the July issue of Glamour magazine. The 29-year-old model opts for less revealing look in the cover as she sports a plunging red dress over her bikini, but she ditches the cleavage-baring dress in the inside pages.
Ashley opens up to the magazine about a traumatic experience in her past. She says that even though she is very confident in herself these days, she experienced a very uncomfortable situation with a photo assistant on the set of a photo shoot back when she was just 17 years old.
Admitting to the mag that she's never publicly shared the story before, the plus-size model recalls, "He was like, 'Hey, come here,' and he led me into a closet. And I was like, 'What?' I thought he was going to show me something."
"And he pulled me in, and he pulled his penis out," she continues. "And he was like, 'Grab it.' And I was like, 'No! That's disgusting.' I freaked out. And thank God I was closer to the door, and I just bolted out."
Currently being known for her body confidence, Ashley admits she does occasionally doubt herself. "Some days I feel like I have superpowers, but some days I feel like I'm the fattest girl in the world," she says. "And I talk about my back fat and my cellulite because it's important to have women in the media addressing the things that society has called flaws."
The curvy brunette, who sports no makeup for her cover photo, finds that people prefer it when she shows off her body. "I don't think there are a lot of curvier celebrities dressing ubersexy," she says. "People on social media actually get pissed when I have my body covered. They're like, 'Why would you cover your beautiful curves?' And it's like, 'Maybe I felt like wearing a sack today!' "
However, the model, who recently posed naked for V Magazine, says she has her limits. "You know, my thing is: If it's vulgar, and it's, like, me grabbing my breasts and showing nipple, I'm not going to do it," she says.
"When I said, 'I don't do nip and bush,' I didn't feel like I had to be specific as to what kind. So you might even see more nipple coming up," she adds, before noting, "But trust me: You will never see my vagina!"
The July issue of Glamour magazine will be available on newsstands on June 13.
