Influencer Addison Rae Shares Swimsuit Photo Looking "Wow"

Influencer and entrepreneur Addison Rae is having a little fun on her social media with an impromptu photo shoot of herself letting loose. Rae, 22, shared pictures of herself dancing in a gold bikini and boots, clutching a soft white knitted blanket. “Wow!” a fan commented on the post. “That friday feeling 🪩,” commented the official Instagram account. Rae has made a career from social media, pivoting into healthy and beauty—here’s how she does it.

1. Clean Beauty

Rae launched her ITEM Beauty line and is passionate about clean cosmetics. “For me, I've increasingly become more aware of is how important it is not only for products to make you look good, but also feel good and genuinely be good for you,” she says. “I think that's why being clean was so important to me too and really educating myself on that in general before I even really knew about clean beauty. I think it's still a subject that people don't really know much about or maybe are not ready to explore, but I think it's becoming something that's a little more mainstream in a way.”

2. Self-Care

Rae is big on setting intentions for herself. “Self-care is to me is accomplishing things that I really want to do and spending my time really wisely, so setting monthly and everyday intentions or goals for myself is a big thing,” she says. “The other big part of self-care is about connections; Being very open and vulnerable with people is a great way to teach yourself how to love. Because the only way you can love yourself is if you give love to other people and the only way to receive it is to love yourself, too.”

3. Focus On the Positive

Rae is used to dealing with criticism, and chooses to focus on the positive. “I feel like at the end of the day, I always know who I am and I really try to remind myself of that,” she says. “I know what I love, I know my passions, and I know my dreams that I want to accomplish and I know that no matter what, they're always going to be people that are negative and that are not wanting people to chase their dreams or accomplish them. I think there are so many lovers and so many supporters and people that love the things I do and love to support me and love to love and at the end of the day, I think that always outweighs the hate.”

4. Living With Fame

Rae is philosophical about being famous. “It’s really weird even hearing that word, because I can’t really grasp what it means to have it,” she says. “But for me, it’s about having amazing opportunities to meet so many different people and have relationships with people who have inspired me forever, and to get the opportunity to showcase passions that I’ve had my entire life.”

5. Kardashian Support

Rae is grateful for being supported by the Kardashian sisters. “I love talking to those girls about everything they've done in their lives and how they stay true to themselves throughout all of it. It’s something that I always have conversations with them about,” she says. “Kourtney is an amazing girl and she's always been so close to me and just helpful throughout everything. Like the other day, we were in the car and she was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I need my Lip Quip!’”

Addison Rae is only 23 years old. However, she’s accomplished so much. She’s one of the most popular accounts on TikTok. She’s an actress, best known for the films He’s All That and Thanksgiving. She’s also a singer, and released her EP AR last year. Rae recently shared a set of beach photos on Instagram. In them, she wore different swimsuits. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Addison Rae stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She’s Grown

In an interview with ELLE, Rae talked about how much she feels that she has grown over the years. “Looking at pictures of myself from two years ago, I’m like: I don’t know her,” Rae says. “I’ve grown into my style a lot the past few years, and as I’m getting older and experiencing more of life and different people, I’m discovering more things that I like and that inspire me. I feel really comfortable with myself and my body now, but that’s obviously something I’ve had to work on and learn how to do. Because it’s really hard to love the things about yourself that maybe people don’t want you to love.”

2. She Uses Fashion As A Confidence Builder

Rae has built a lot of confidence in herself. She tells ELLE that learning more about fashion and what works on her body helped her. “Learning how to style my body type and understanding what looks good and feels good on me has been a big thing,” explains Rae. “Every body is so different, so something that looks great on someone else might not look the same on me. And that’s fine. It’s about finding things you love, but in a way that makes you feel the most confident – and making it your own.”

3. She Listens To Herself

Rae makes sure to listen to herself and her instincts. She told ELLE, “Everything I’ve done so far in my career is because of choices I’ve made, and straying true to myself and my intuition. So why would I listen to what anyone else has to say? I got here all on my own.”

4. She Stays Positive

Rae is all about being positive. “One thing about me that surprises people is that I am just as happy as I am in the pictures,” she says to High Snobiety. “I try to always be positive, and people think that's not real. No matter what situation I've been in my entire life, good or bad, I've always [known] that things pass and get better.”

5. She’s No Longer A People Pleaser

Rae has had to deal with people who don’t like her. However, she told High Snobiety that she is working on not being a people pleaser. “You're not meant to appeal to every single person. There are going to be people that don't like you. There are going to be people that don't like what you wear, but that's all a part of being unique and different and standing out. People who are memorable don't come from being people pleasers. Growing up, I struggled with that. I wanted to make everyone happy, and sometimes you compromise yourself when you do that. That helped me navigate myself and exactly what I wanted to do and be.”

Addison Rae took requests from her followers, asking them what photos she should post on her Instagram story. One fan requested “vacation pics.” Rae answered the request by posting a photo of herself in a blue bathing suit, while enjoying a frozen treat.

1. She Has This to Say About the “Ideal Body”

Rae told Glamour UK that she deals with "online hate and social media drama.” "It's a really hard thing to deal with when you're a girl, especially going through your teens," she explained. "I am 20 and my body is constantly changing, but people have this high standard around body image and say, 'Oh, you have to look like this to look great or to look hot or to be cool or to be pretty.'" "For me, a lot of people have said, 'Oh I love how comfortable she is and she doesn't look like the beauty standard.' It's a backhanded compliment sometimes because people will be like, 'I'm so glad she's confident that she doesn't look perfect,'" she continued in the interview. "It hurts sometimes when people say that, because I think everyone's perfect, so why is there some standard of 'this body is the ideal body'?"

2. She Has Worked Out at the Dogpound

Celebs like Vanessa Hudgens and Bella Hadid workout at the LA and NYC fitness center the Dogpound, and so does Rae. She’s been seen going there in a green sweatsuit, and has done morning workouts at the LA location. Consider interval training. “Interval training is simply alternating short bursts (about 30 seconds) of intense activity with longer intervals (about 1 to 2 minutes) of less intense activity,” says the Mayo Clinic. “For instance, if your exercise is walking and you're in good shape, you might add short bursts of jogging into your regular brisk walks. If you're less fit, you might alternate leisurely walking with periods of faster walking. For example, if you're walking outdoors, you could walk faster between certain mailboxes, trees or other landmarks.”

3. She Loves Herself for Who She Is

“People see people's successes sometimes and wish it was them, which is totally understandable. I've even been there in my life, too, where I'm like, ‘I wish I had this or I wish I had what she had,’” she said. “There's going to be people that don't like you and that want to tear you down, but you have to love yourself for who you are,” she told Glamour.

4. She Does This Every Morning

“Every morning, I play music after I wake up. And I usually go to sleep with music. At night I’ll listen to softer music, like Pink Sweats or Frank Ocean, because it’s really relaxing. In the morning, I’ll change it to something more upbeat. The Echo makes it easy because you can talk to it to change the song or whatever. It’s also pretty much my weatherman. While it’s mostly beautiful all the time in L.A., lately it’s been rainy and cloudy, and my Echo tells me that before I leave the house,” she told NY Mag’s the Strategist.

5. She Uses This to Make Her Skin Glow

"Oh my gosh. The Jason Maximum Strength Vitamin E Skin Oil ($10). I literally just put that on my skin—on top of anything—and it makes my skin look glowy. It’s another step with my moisturizer. I apply my moisturizer and then add the vitamin E oil to give it that glow. I really love it,” she told Byrdie.

Addison Rae—social media star and lead of He's All That—is the queen of online and a selfie master.

Rae tells Glamour that while she might not be a big fan of running, she still does it to stay in shape. “I hate running... But it's so good for you.” “Being active and engaging in regular aerobic exercise is important for overall heart health and wellness. Typically, 30 minutes of moderate intensity activity five days a week is recommended for most healthy adults. Running is a simple, low-cost exercise, and you should be commended for starting a new exercise regimen,” says the Mayo Clinic.

2. She Does Pilates

Rae says to Glamour that she is a big fan of doing Pilates, and that her good friend, Kourtney Kardashian, helped get her into it. “The best wellness hack I've learned from Kourtney is probably, working out and doing Pilates. I feel like I really started getting into pilates whenever I was working out with Kourtney.”

3. She Works Out With Friends

5. She Takes Her Mother’s Advice

Rae tells Glamour that she’s close with her mother, and that her mother has given her great advice throughout her career. “The best lesson I've learned from my mother is probably to not be afraid to be who you are because that is simply who you are and don't let people take that away from you. I think people especially nowadays try and convince everyone that they need to be the same, perfect, great all the time and that no one makes mistakes.”
