Xandra Pohl In Steamy Bikini Shoot Is ‘Better Than Kate Upton’

Xandra Pohl has steadily been dishing out hot bikini pics since she officially joined Sports Illustrated in 2024. This year, she's taken it up a notch with a series of sexy snaps that have fans comparing her to Sports Illustrated's icon, Kate Upton.

Xandra Pohl marked her second year as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model with a bikini shoot that left jaws agape. The celebrity DJ and swimsuit model took no prisoners as she struck a series of sultry poses.

In the opening slide, Xandra leaned against two trees, hands raised, while staring captivatingly at the camera. In the next, she lay on the beach shore, her hair and body glistening from the water waves washing over her.

There was also a cute picture of her in a black two-piece sitting on a chair. Pohl radiated "main character energy," giving her fans a close-up of her stunning face.

Xandra Pohl served up six steamy bikini outfits that left fans drooling.

The first was a green and white bikini that showed off her stunning body. Its top was a tiny triangle style with thin halter neck straps that crossed in the front. Its cups were gathered at the middle, giving a flattering effect and highlighting her cleavage. The matching bottom was a classic high-waisted V-cut with tiny strings at the side, emphasizing the curve of her hips.

The second outfit was a white bandeau-style bikini with wooden ring details. She paired this stunning piece with a chunky seashell-themed necklace, nailing the sea siren aesthetic.

A crowd favorite was a brown monokini. The monokini featured large cut-outs that bared generous glimpses of her cleavage and hips. It also featured cowry details around its neck and at the end of the string that secured the outfit to her waist.

She wrapped it up with a cute bandeau-style two-piece in pink and white stripes. The pink and white stripes lent a sweet, girlish vibe, while the daring cut kept things sizzling hot.

Pohl's fans couldn’t keep calm, as compliments flooded in from every corner of the internet. “Epic shots!! This year is somehow even better than last!! Killing it,” gushed one admirer. Another simply declared, “You really are just that girl.”

There were also several comments comparing her with swimsuit icons like Pamela Anderson and Kate Upton. One commented, “It's giving Pam Anderson,” while another agreed with, “My generation had Pam Anderson; Gen Z has Xandra! You look stunning!”

A bold fan even typed, “Better than Kate Upton. Change my mind. Xandra is making Sports Illustrated great again.”

Before now, many fans have hinted that Pohl was on her way to reaching iconic status. However, these comments suggest some fans now believe she has officially surpassed Upton.

Pohl's journey to being a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model began in the most unexpected way.

She was initially contacted to DJ for their Miami runway show. However, on the day of the event, she was asked to not only DJ but also walk the runway as a model, where she did extraordinarily well.

It was a few weeks later that she received the life-changing invitation to join the team as a rookie for the 2024 edition. Xandra Pohl later shared the entire experience in a TikTok video on her page.

Pohl rocked an angelic white dress at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit launch party earlier in the year.

The elegant outfit highlighted her impressive cleavage with its deep sweetheart neckline, while its short length showed off her toned legs. She finished off the look with matching silver earrings and a pair of dazzling heels.
