Calling Alexandria Morgan the "Next Kate Upton" just because she posed in a patriotic one-piece is painting with too broad a brush. Alexandria has her own special attributes. She's her own person. Eyes up here, buddy.
Alexandria is one of many up and coming swimsmokes who've gone through the glass ceiling one Katherine Elizabeth Upton battered open.
One thing she and Kate have in common: They both seem friendly.
Also a former athlete, Alexandria played in some soccer charity event to hawk the latest wearable fitness gear.
You can also find her at the driving range.
She isn't a picky eater. She even goes so far to describe herself as an avid bread enthusiast. I am too, but I prefer my hops in beer not bread.
A swimsmoke doesn't truly break into the mainstream until she stars in an online only ad. Alexandria lit up the Interwebs last month in a spot for ... um ... can't focus ... who really cares anyway.
Alexandria was dismayed when she found out that the ad was deemed "too hot" for TV.
Via YahooSports:
"I wasn't expecting it to be banned," she says. "It's just a woman's body. You shouldn't be ashamed of that. It's empowering."
Behold Kate Upton's legacy! There will come a day, sooner rather than later, when Kate ages out of active modeling duty. But her legacy is secure thanks to her showing other models just how empowering they can be.
Welcome to the new era.
