Cindy Crawford is causing quite a storm on Twitter for all of the right reasons…

The 48-year-old supermodel, who celebrates her birthday next week, posed for a spread in Marie Claire’s Mexico/Latin America issue and decided all of her images were published without any editing.

A photograph from the shoot, which was shot in December 2013, began to circulate online yesterday and has since gone viral.

ITV News anchor Charlene White was the first to tweet the image of Crawford.

Marie Claire confirmed that the shot was taken some 14 months ago and appeared in the Mexican – Latin American edition of the publication with the message: ‘it is real, it is honest, and it is gorgeous’.

In an interview with the magazine last week, Cindy talked about “learning to be comfortable in your own skin”.

“If women would treat themselves with the same kind of love they give to their friends, that would be such a great gift we could give ourselves,” she said.

“What makes you the most attractive is self-confidence. That’s what people see”.
