She said, "I had liposuction years ago. And I forever regret it because I just didn't need it."

She added to People: "We just got to do less with all that and be healthy."

Despite being a successful model since 2019, Nader explained her career really "took off" when she started using a GLP-1 (weight-loss drug) to lose weight.

"If I didn't get a job, I would say to (my old modeling agency), 'Can we get feedback from the client?' The direct feedback was I needed to lose 30 pounds," she recalled.

Despite the harsh feedback, Nader said she "didn't shed one tear over it."

"I just say, 'The facts are they want me to lose weight. How can I achieve that?"

Nader continued: "The facts are that when I started GLP-1, my career took off. I'm not saying it's OK. I'm not saying it's right. I think everybody is different, but I lost 30 pounds, and I booked all the jobs."

Nader's profile is set to go global after bagging a role in the new Baywatch remake.

However, the model admits she encountered two big problems stepping into Pamela Anderson's shoes – she can't swim and needs acting lessons.

She explained: "I will surprise everyone. I'm having swimming lessons every day – I have the hardest swim trainer ever. I'm also having acting lessons."

The Louisiana-born former swimsuit model added, "I didn't grow up rich, so I didn't have any swimming lessons."

Fox is rebooting the 1990s series, with the first scenes being filmed on Venice Beach last week.

Nader was seen on set wearing the show’s legendary red swimsuit, but holding a TV clapperboard instead of the life-saving rescue buoy Anderson and the show's other lifeguards were known for carrying.
