Brooks Nader has been ready to step into an iconic red “Baywatch” swimsuit since she was a toddler.
The model shared in a new interview with People that her role in the show’s reboot has been a long time in coming — and that she’s been studying the moves of original “Baywatch” stars Carmen Electra and Pamela Anderson.
“I’ve been doing this since I was like two years old. I’ve been ready for this. I’m like, ‘I got this,’” the “Dancing With the Stars” alum told the outlet in an interview published Saturday.
“I’ve been watching the videos of Pam and Carmen Electra. I’m ready for this.”
The “Love Thy Nader” star, 29, also detailed the “out-of-body experience” of donning her red one-piece “Baywatch” swimsuit for the first time, noting that “even the wardrobe people” got emotional.
“They were like, ‘This is so big and this is so exciting.’ And I feel like the energy with the cast and the crew and everybody involved is just spectacular and everyone’s so excited to see it all come to life,” she told the outlet.
“I think everyone’s going to love the show and everyone’s working really hard. So it’s exciting.”
Nader, 29, also joked that she now “only run[s] in slow-mo,” referencing the series’ unmistakable slow motion shots of beach lifeguards running in slow motion.
The upcoming Fox reboot series — which also features Noah Beck and Livvy Dunne, among others — is set to premiere in the 2026-27 season.
It follows both the original series — which ran for 11 seasons, beginning in 1989 — and a 2017 movie version starring Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron.
All of them leaned into the 90s-style red swimsuit, which even Anderson — who played beach bombshell C.J. Parker in the original series — still wears decades later.
“I had a couple back then. Now I only have one and it fits,” the actress, now 58, told Entertainment Tonight Canada in 2023, noting that she “put[s] it on every once in awhile.”
Electra, meanwhile — who played Lani McKenzie in the long-running series — once called the skin-baring look “empowering.”
“I have my suit framed and when people come over to the house, they get really excited,” the “Scary Movie” actress told the New York Times in 2019. “It just has this effect on people. It was empowering.”
