Bombshell Brooks Nader wins Sports Illustrated 2019 Model Search
It’s our gal Brooks!
New York model Brooks Nader has won the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2019 Model Search, the magazine announced Wednesday, and will appear in the 2020 issue as their handpicked “rookie.”
The Post spotted the down-to-earth Louisiana native’s star quality years ago. She was the bathing beauty in a 2017 story on the lengths New Yorkers will go to for a decent bath: “I’ll do anything for a bath. Like, anything,” she said with a laugh at the time.
The 22-year-old’s climb to the top started last year, when she attended an open casting call in Miami. She eventually beat out more than 10,000 other applicants and was even “handpicked as favorite model applicant by the iconic Christie Brinkley,” a statement from the mag says.
Once the finalists were named, fans of Sports Illustrated voted for their favorite. With a combination of those votes, editors’ choice picks and an evaluation, Nader was crowned the winner. Look for her in next year’s big issue.
Last year’s winner, (former New England Patriots cheerleader and girlfriend of former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski) Camille Kostek, appeared on the cover of the 2019 issue.
