The 30-year-old model shakes her booty in a red thong bikini in a behind-the-scenes clip for the mag's special issue which is shared on social media.

AceShowbiz - Show us your dance moves, girl! Ashley Graham twerked in a thong bikini on set of the latest edition of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. The mag has taken to its Instagram account to share a behind-the-scenes video showing the 30-year-old model shaking her ample booty while competing in a "twerk-off."

Ashley went all out as she proudly showed off her sensational twerking skills in the racy red swimsuit while letting loose on the photo shoot set, with the entire crew cheering the brunette beauty. She seemed to have a lot of fun as she happily engaged in the twerk-off with SI Swimsuit senior editor Darcie Baum.

"We have a lot of fun on set. We work hard, but we play even harder," Ashley explained in the clip. "There was a couple of twerk-offs because Darcie knows how to twerk," the curvy model continued, before proudly adding, "I was in a thong more than once, so I had to let them know what I was packing."

For her third spread for the iconic annual issue, Ashley, along with the crew, flew to Saint Kitts and the Caribbean island of Nevis. She admitted that she was looking to have a good time. "It's my third year. I feel really relaxed," she said in the clip. "I wanted it to be a really fun, kind of party vibe on set, and I think that's exactly what it was."

The Nebraska native made Sports Illustrated Swimsuit history back in 2016 when she became the first plus-sized model to be featured on the cover. She has since been showing off her curves for some of the world's biggest magazines, and has become one of the outspoken celebrities for body positivity on and off social media.

Most recently, Ashley recruited her mom Linda to join her in her new campaign for Swimsuits For All. And since then, Linda has become a social media sensation in her own right, with more than 35,000 followers on Instagram.

Speaking of the Moroccan modeling shoot, Linda told Vogue, "I had never put on a string bikini. Here I am at 53 years old and in a hot pink string bikini, but I was kind of in love with that swimsuit!"

Back in August 2017, Linda posed in a two-piece for the first time in 30 years, while she was on holiday in Bali, Indonesia, and her model daughter was quick to post the pic online.

"What I want is for women my mother's age to feel empowered and to know that they too can look just as hot in a one-piece, a two-piece, or string bikini," Ashley told Vogue of the reason she shared the snap. "I believe that beauty is beyond, age, race, or size, and it's not a trend--at every stage of your life, you can feel beautiful," she added.
