Up and coming super smokes have to work hard to make an impression. Some cavort half-nekkid in music videos. Another might improvise a dance captured on a nearly iPhone. And for many, a mere Instagram will suffice. Among them: Alexandria Morgan.
Miss Morgan has taken the bro sites by storm with her Insta-ode to the Triangle and the Alan Parsons Project. I am late to the party. She didn’t catch my eye until her recent Memorial Day spread for The Roosevelts.
Let me just state for the record that I think Alexandria is a winner. She has even caught the eye of SI's swim smoke casting call blog, aka my Bible, the very same publication that inducted Emily Ratajkowski into the SI swim smoke sisterhood.
Speaking of SI swim smokes, Alexandria reminds me of one in particular.
Can you see the resemblance?
Blonde hair, blue eyes? Patriotic?
Able to cut a rug?
Bingo.
I can see how it might be going too far to call Alexandria the next Kate Upton. Alexandria is 20, an age at which Kate had already claimed two SI covers.
In Alexandria's defense, she's only been modeling for year.
And what a year it has been.
