TikToker Xandra Pohl dove right into her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue return.
As she celebrated her second consecutive appearance in the annual issue, the 23-year-old revealed that she “really didn’t do anything” to prepare for her photo shoot.
“I’ve been on tour,” the DJ told E! News exclusively at the 2025 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit launch party in New York May 15, “so I’d say I just lived my life and just showed up to my shoot. It was so much fun.”
In fact, for Xandra, getting ready is all mental.
“You just gotta go in with confidence,” she said, “and love yourself. Love your body.”
And the photo shoot itself, which took place in Jamaica, also helped elevate those feelings.
“Everything that they put you in,” she added, “you just feel so beautiful.”
That’s not to say that taking that plunge back into swimsuit modeling was easy for Xandra.
