I'm proud of the way my body looks but it was still a shock when I went to buy my first competition swimsuit. My oh my! Icould not believe that they wanted me to wear something so skimpy on a stage. I felt embarrassed to walk out in front of a crowd of people but when I did, the audience cheered and hollered. My husband Collin is 82 now, and it was a big surprise when he found out too. Wewere married way back in 1956, when even amodest bikini was frowned upon.
我為自己目前的身型感到驕傲。但當(dāng)我第一次去買比賽用的泳衣時(shí)仍然大吃一驚。我的天啊!我無法相信他們居然想讓我在舞臺上穿著如此暴露的東西。身穿泳衣走到人群面前令我頗感尷尬,但我還是這么做了,觀眾為我喝彩歡呼。我的丈夫科林今年已經(jīng)82歲了,所以當(dāng)他發(fā)現(xiàn)我參賽時(shí)同樣大吃一驚。我們早在1956年就結(jié)婚了,當(dāng)時(shí)的人們即使看到一件較為保守的比基尼都會皺緊眉頭。
