A second snap shows Lakshmi grinning in a red bikini under a matching umbrella during a tropical rain storm. Teigen, who has also has penned a best-selling cookbook, showed admiration in the post’s comments section. 

“I remember seeing you at a party in Miami like 10 years ago,” Teigen wrote. “Everyone was Miami decked out but you were in a long dress and barefoot with barely any makeup on, and just floating like you were on skates. I was like ‘that. is my hero.’”

It’s just the most recent sultry ‘gram from Lakshmi’s feed. On January 1, she rang in 2020 by dropping a tastefully topless behind-the-scenes photo from a Vogue India cover shoot, writing “New year, same me.”
