Plus size model Ashley Graham continues to destroy beauty standards. The model recently took to Instagram to prove that any size can be sexy. In one of her latest Instagram posts, the 29-year- old shared a behind the scenes look into a photo shoot for swimwear brand Swimsuits for All. In the short but hot clip, the model is seen standing under a shower, swaying her hips and sensually touching her body.
According to Hollywood Life, Graham often takes to social media to share bits and pieces of her life to her fans and supporters. She also uses social media to "connect with my fans to really know what they want me to talk about." Surprisingly, fans have asked her to talk more about "cellulite and back fat," which is why she isn't afraid to post untouched or un-photoshopped pictures of herself and her stretch marks.
The model admitted, "The majority of women have cellulite and I am not going to hide behind Photoshop or retouching."Model shows off tattoo
As a model, Ashley Graham has been known to show off her killer body, despite her imperfections. The 29-year old, who starred in DNCE's "Toothbrush" music video, recently revealed that she, in fact, has a tattoo. According to The Sun, the model took to Instagram Stories to share a snap of herself in front of a mirror, taking a selfie. In it, she wore a sexy white bikini, which she pulled down to reveal a tattoo just below her bikini line. While she did not offer an explanation to what the tattoo was (the photo wasn't very clear), The Sun reported that it looked like the traditional sign for Scorpio, which is the model's birth sign.
On redefining sexy
Ashley Graham has long been outspoken on things that matter to her. For someone as visible as the model, she's also very keen on the projects that she takes on. She told Glamour, "Doing the music video with Joe Jonas—and making out with him—was something that I talked to [my husband] Justin about before I went in.
And he understood I was playing a role. There are reasons to set boundaries for yourself, but there are also reasons to keep doors open. With that video, I wanted to let the world know that love comes in all sizes."

Earlier this year, Ashley Graham released the book, "A New Model: What Confidence, Beauty, and Power Really Look Like." The memoir's description calls Graham "one of the most outspoken voices gracing the covers of magazines today."
