Emily Ratajkowski had a very cheeky birthday cake for her 34th — and she has no regrets.
The author posted a video on Instagram from her “cake-themed birthday” on Sunday, June 8. She started off by showing a clip of herself with a birthday cake designed to look like a thong-clad derriere, a surprise gift from her friends. The video captured moments of dancing and birthday festivities in Ratajkowski’s apartment.
In the video, Ratajkowski said, “I lost my voice from having so much fun. This is us at the beginning of the setup. Sly was helping with the cleanup, and then the cake arrived. My friends totally surprised me with it.”
Transitioning to the main cake, she added, “Let’s move on to the actual cake. Yes, this clip might be a bit too long because I’m proud of my twerking skills. As a Gemini with a Leo Rising and Aries Moon, I have a natural affinity for birthdays, which I truly adore. For me, my birthday is like a national holiday, and that’s why we had an amazing time. I want to share this special cake with you all once again. Thank you for being a part of this journey.”
Ratajkowski certainly seems to have emotionally rebounded after she got what she described as “the worst haircut of my life” earlier this year. In March, she shared an update on the methods she’d been using to make the unfortunate cut work.
After she explained she now had “bangs starting from the back of [her] head,” Ratajkowski said she’d attempted to blow out her hairstyle with a Dyson Airdrop before she realized that wouldn’t work. She also tried a curling iron and noted, “Apparently curling it hides bad haircuts.”
“I knew it was a bad haircut when my friends were low-key concerned that I was stepping outside and wasn’t more upset. They were concerned for my mental health.” Ratajkowski also said that they called her look “brave” and a “thrill-seeker.”
While she added that she was happy to try out curly hair, the overall look was still not great. “One word I’d like to never hear again is ‘shaggy.’ It’s just too short, man,” she explained.
Ratajkowski also said that she’d worked with the hair stylist before and just didn’t like the cut because it didn’t feel like her. “The very nice man who did this to me, I think he was going British shaggy, but the main thing is that it’s not me,” she added.
