Halle dug back 20 years for this update. The actress and Re-Spin founder had grabbed a photo of herself from the red carpet posing ops at the 2000 "X-Men" premiere, with the look definitely going down the bikini route. Halle was flaunting her washboard abs and killer cleavage in a tiny patterned string bikini with jewel-encrusted ties, plus a belly chain and matching pants.

It was confidence all-around as Halle also wore a stylish, chocolate-brown outer shirt. The finish was definitely open-chested, though. Scroll for the caption.

Halle opened up about the grueling workouts, saying:

"I had to look (and perform) like a professional MMA fighter, so, in addition to practicing MMA for four hours every day."

She added: "I was also doing about 45 minutes of general strength training and 15 minutes of work just on my abs. We threw the kitchen sink at my core and, let me tell you, it took serious dedication."
