Rhonda Rousey Poses For ESPN Body Issue

In 2012 Rhonda Rousey posed for, and made the cover of ESPN’s Body Issue, much to the delight of fans. In an interview with Jim Norton and Opie Radio, she revealed what persuaded her to pose for the shoot. Rousey explained that she found naked photos of herself on an ex-boyfriend’s computer that were taken without her knowledge. “You know when you’re just comfortably naked around somebody… I just thought that he was on his phone texting people.” Furious, she deleted his computer hard drive and decided, “If there’s naked pictures out there, I’m going to go take naked pictures myself and I’m going to put it out there on my terms.”
