Model Irina Shayk doesn't believe in plastic surgery and says being confident can help women "feel special" at any size.
"I don't believe in plastic surgery. I believe women have to love their bodies, and that it's all about confidence. When I do shoots, I say to myself, I love my body and I'm not afraid to show it. I hope every woman will feel special and be in love with her body, whatever her size," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Shayk as saying.
Instead, the model spends a lot of time working out and enjoys changing her exercise routine to ensure she doesn't get bored.
"To get into lingerie or a swimsuit for a shoot you have to feel your best and, of course, you have to train. Lately I've taken up ju-jitsu, which is great fun and also great cardio. You have to find something that works for your body. I get bored very easily, so I'm always trying to find something different," said the 29-year-old, who is rumoured to be dating actor Bradley Cooper.
