Sports Illustrated model Brooks Nader is firing back at critics as she dives headfirst into the highly anticipated 'Baywatch' reboot. Nader brushed off backlash over influencer casting while making the case for a new era of Hollywood.
'I think that the times are different, and everyone is so multi-hyphenate now. And you can be both an actor and an influencer and have influence,' Nader told the Daily Mail. 'And that's the beauty of the culture that social media has created.' FIRST LOOK AT BROOKS NADER AND CAST IN ICONIC 'BAYWATCH' RED SWIMSUITS AS FILMING KICKS OFF FOR REBOOT She made the comments after critics flooded social media with skepticism about the reboot’s casting choices, some calling it 'influencer casting, not acting' and slamming the project as 'a JOKE' with an 'awful cast.' Others questioned Hollywood’s reliance on reboots altogether, while some fans wondered if anyone could truly step into the shadow of Pamela Anderson’s iconic red swimsuit era. As debate swirls online over whether social media stars belong on screen, Nader refused to back down. BROOKS NADER ADMITS ‘CHASING PERFECTION’ IN HOLLYWOOD WAS A MISTAKE AFTER DISSOLVING HER FILLERS 'We now have platforms,' she continued. 'I think … during the '90s, you didn't have social media. You didn't have Instagram or TikTok. And, so, people could use their voice now, and I think as long as they're using it for good ... I think that … it'll bring a vibe to the show.' Influencer Noah Beck is also a principal cast member, while Livvy Dunne will appear in a recurring role as a junior lifeguard for the 'Baywatch' reboot. BROOKS NADER ADDRESSES KEVIN COSTNER DATING SPECULATION Despite the noise, Nader insisted the cast would deliver. 'I think that there's so many amazing platforms and voices that are on the show, in the cast, and I think it'll only help,' she explained. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Nader is cast alongside Stephen Amell and Shay Mitchell in the reboot, but her connection to the franchise, she said, started long before she landed the role. The 'Dancing with the Stars' alum additionally shared that she had 'manifested' this role a while back. LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING?

I have to shoot in this,’' she previously told TV Insider. 'Lo and behold, it became the cover, which was amazing. It's kind of a full-circle moment to see that that was in 2023. And we're now in 2026, and that dream became a reality. CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FOX NEWS APP 'My superpowers are scaring me.'
