Camille Kostek, a model for Sports Illustrated and former NFL cheerleader, recently used TikTok to address individuals who have posted negative comments about her body on social media. In a video shared this week, Kostek filmed a close-up of her face with text overlay stating, "Me wondering when I'm going to stop opening my phone to losers having conversations about my body."
In the caption of the post, Kostek, who is dating former NFL player Rob Gronkowski, encouraged her critics to "Go outside and get some sun!!" The comments section of the video featured many users offering support and praise for Kostek. Some described her as the "hottest woman" they had ever seen and praised her natural beauty.
Kostek's public response follows her appearance on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit runway in May and her feature in the 2026 SI Swimsuit Issue, for which she posed in Botswana. This is not the first time Kostek has addressed body-shaming. In 2019, she responded to critical comments on Instagram after posting a photo of herself in a bikini. At that time, she shared screengrabs of negative comments, some of which called her photo "gross" and commented on her body shape. Kostek explained in a video that she had been deeply affected by these comments and had a "weak moment" where she allowed them to impact her. She stated that while her social media often reflects positive experiences, she also has difficult days. Kostek added that such experiences help her grow, develop thicker skin, and remember what is important in life.
