Anitta is no stranger to being in front of a camera. The award-winning singer, whose 2021 hit single “Envolver” broke the record for the first solo Latin song to top the Spotify Global Daily chart and earned her a Guinness World Record, is used to paparazzi, videographers and fans snapping her photo all the time.

She made her SI Swimsuit debut in 2021, and while it was a step out of her comfort zone and a memorable occasion, the WSJ. Magazine Music Innovator of 2022 calmed her nerves by trying to treat the experience like a music video.

“[It’s my] first time shooting for Sports Illustrated, and I feel really great about the pictures and the results. I’m in love with everything,” the 30-year-old said at the time. “My music has a lot of personality. I can be versatile. In music videos, I try to be different girl every time. I like the fact that people don’t know what to expect when something [new is] coming from me. They don’t know [if] I’m going to be sexy, crazy, romantic. I love to break the wall and make people think out of the box.”

Here are 12 of our favorite photos from Anitta’s 2021 photo shoot with photographer James Macari in Hollywood, Fla.
