Kate Upton’s Wardrobe Malfunction: She Has a Marilyn Monroe Moment and Flashes Her Bare Bottom on the Set of a Photo Shoot!

Ahoy, cheeky winds!

Kate Upton was spotted poolside on the set of a photo shoot on Saturday, Nov. 1, but those South Beach breezes weren’t nearly as professional as she was.

The twice-crowned Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover model, 22, was seen barefoot and smiling in a loose red top and a black and white gingham skirt. But suddenly, the wind blew back the hem of her mini, revealing her nude thong and a bare bottom!

Upton, however, was ever the pro, smoothing down her skirt with a laugh and continuing on with the day’s duties.

Except, of course, when she took quick breaks to sip on a green smoothie and relax with her boyfriend, baseball player Justin Verlander, who casually laid out in the sun while his model girlfriend worked hard for the money.

Upton’s Marilyn Monroe moment comes on the heels of August’s celebrity phone hack, from which nude photos of the model were leaked online. Upton and her team understandably called the moment an “outrageous violation of her privacy.” Still, the blonde bombshell is proud of her bodacious body, and happy to flaunt it for her flourishing career.

Inside Elle UK‘s September 2014 issue, Upton said, “People [in the modeling world] say: ‘Oh, wow, you’re healthy.’ And [I’m] like, ‘Wait—what? I’ve been begging for this body my whole life!'”

The latest face of Bobbi Brown cosmetics added, “I’m from Florida, it’s all about being in bathing suits… You are ugly if you don’t have a curvy body. And I didn’t have one, and then I got one, and thought, ‘Yessss!'”
