Cameron Brink is featured on a new cover of Flaunt, and part of her reason for collaborating magazine is so good.
Before her season-ending injury, Cameron was quietly having a very solid rookie year. Her offensive game was slowly starting to develop to match her defensive intensity, and the early results were pretty great. Not to mention, she regularly SLAYED our weekly WNBA fits round-up.
So, it’s not entirely shocking that Cameron managed to sneak in a Flaunt cover shoot during the middle of her season, where she spoke with Matthew Bedard about balancing different versions of herself:
“I love to be masculine and feminine, and it depends on the day…I love to wear heels and wear makeup and do my hair. It’s very near and dear to my heart to have that process of getting ready and feeling beautiful and feeling confident.”
“That’s honestly a hot topic in the world of basketball and sports because there are a lot of people who think that women shouldn’t wear makeup when they play basketball or a sport. And you know me, I wear almost a full face. I don’t think I need it, but I love it, and it makes me feel like the best version of myself.”
“I definitely really believe in duality and being able to do multiple things…So I think that’s something the world needs to accept more. We need to stop boxing people in, especially athletes. We’re not just our sport. That’s what keeps my mental health going — is having other things I can turn to — because we’re not just basketball players. We’re not just girly girls.”
