Katie Austin’s Instagram is the gift that keeps on giving. The SI Swimsuit model has returned for her third appearance in the issue and she’s been updating her social media followers with lots of behind-the-scenes content. Her 2023 photo shoot in the Dominican Republic just wrapped.

Austin danced to Nicki Minaj’s “Moment 4 Life” (featuring Drake) in an adorable video she shared to TikTok and Instagram. The 2022 SI Swimsuit co-Rookie of the Year wore a stringy bright blue bikini decorated with large flowers.

“ON SET WITH @si_swimsuit BABY!!! Year 3 and it’s still a pinch me moment,” the 29-year-old captioned her Feb. 6 post. “A moment for life!! So so grateful to be here in the Dominican Republic truly living my DREAM can’t wait to share more of my 2023 with you all❤️.”

“I wish that I could have this moment for life,” Minaj sings. “For life, for life.”

Austin pointed out on her IG that Drake raps, “I’m in the Dominican, Big Papi Ortiz,” in one portion of the song. She added that the Swim team “kept this song on repeat” during her photo shoot the previous day.

Tons of current and former SI Swimsuit models chimed in to the comments to appreciate the swimsuit and Austin’s killer dance moves.

“Omg omg omg omg omg omg,” gushed Christen Harper, who was the 2022 co-Rookie of the Year with Austin.

“THIS,” piped in Natalie Mariduena. “this suit is everyyything!”

“BODY GOALS OMG 🔥,” chirped Haley Kalil.

“Love youuuu,” said Katrina Scott. “and that suit 💙❤️‍🔥.”
