- Paulina Porizkova, 56, just posted a nude photo of herself looking super fit on Instagram.
- The supermodel explained that she decided to post the pic after a leisurely bath in her hotel room.
- Paulina joked about her photoshoot: “I was bored, which led to this celebration of narcissism, the naked selfie.”
Paulina Porizkova, 56, has become the unofficial queen of body confidence, sharing photos and videos on Instagram of her honest take on beauty and aging. So naturally, she just shared a nude mirror selfie taken during her vacation in Rome.
“My hotel Eden in Rome, has, besides a beautiful room I’m staying in, this pretty happening bathroom,” she wrote in the caption. “After work and a leisurely bath, I was bored, which led to this celebration of narcissism, the naked selfie.”
Paulina said the impromptu photoshoot was basically fate. “What else was there to do? I mean, besides things like reading a good book or watching Italian TV. 😜,” she joked. “But it made me wonder what would happen if you gave a man a mirror and a camera and lots of spare time, versus a woman.” She also ended on this note: “For all of you who have a rough time with nudity, this thread will not be a safe place for you. Godspeed. 😁”
The photo showcases Paulina from all angles, looking super fit thanks to her incredibly toned butt, legs, and abs.

Paulina is no stranger to the naked—or nearly naked—selfie.

Paulina has been more than candid about the importance of celebrating people’s bodies as they age. “When I was in my twenties and thirties, the less I wore – the more popular I was,” she wrote on Instagram in February. “In my forties, I could walk around practically naked and illicit nothing more than a ticket for public indecency. At fifty, I am reviled for it. ‘Put on your clothes, grandma. Hungry for attention, are you? A little desperate here? You’re pathetic.’ …The only thing that is pathetic here is allowing others to set your priorities.”
She’s also opened up about not finding fitness until she was 40, telling Elle that she used to rely on “cigarettes and poor nutrition” for her supermodel body.
But, after going on Dancing with the Stars in 2007, she got inspired to start working out regularly. “I started exercising to help with my panic attacks and to get off antidepressants,” she told Elle. “I found out if I worked out every day my anxiety was kept a lot at bay. And I felt better. So how great is that?”
Now, Paulina is all about dance cardio workouts and Pilates classes. And yeah, it shows.
