MODEL REVEAL: Brazilian Beauty Anne de Paula Is a Three-Time SI Swimsuit Model!

Anne de Paula is shooting in the Dominican Republic for SI Swimsuit 2020.

Everyone's favorite Brazillian beauty is back! That's right, Anne de Paula is now officially a three-time Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model.

Anne was the winner of our 2017 SI Swimsuit model search, which earned her a spot in the 2018 rookie class. And she's been a part of the family ever since!

"It’s something I really wanted when I started modeling," she said in an interview with SI.com. "It’s amazing to finally say I’m able to be an SI model. When I started modeling, I would show people SI photos that I wanted to recreate on the beach in Rio. I wasn’t expecting it all."

Although Anne started modeling at just the age 13, she never dreamed that any of this would happen.

"I really wanted to be a doctor because all of my family works with health," she continued. "I was a tomboy … I used to play soccer on the team of my city. I used to be a goalkeeper and that was my number one thing."

We for one are so glad Anne chose to pursue modeling...although it would've been fun to watch her on the pitch, too!

Are you as excited as we are for Anne's next SI Swimsuit shoot in the Dominican Republic? Be sure to follow along on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook to see all the action from set!
