Gigi was also captured for a behind the scenes video of her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit shoot where she talked about her experience shooting for the third straight year. ā€œItā€™s the one trip and job that I look forward to. Not only because of the people that I get to work with, but itā€™s always fun to see the next adventure you get to take with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit,ā€ the swimsuit model says.

Gigi also talked about music on the set, ā€œWhen Iā€™m modeling, music is a really big part for me. I think finding a really good soundtrack is so important because it changes the whole energy on the set.ā€
