Austin joined the magazine originally after co-winning the annual casting call in 2021. She said at the time of her first shoot that this was a dream come true.
“I’ve been trying to find the words all day and ever since I found out I was a rookie to explain how insane this is, and I think I keep saying like, ‘oh my God, oh my God, this is crazy, it’s unreal,’ because it really is unreal,” Austin shared after her rookie shoot. “When you dream about something for so long and then it becomes a reality, it’s like still so surreal. I want this moment to like last forever and it goes by so fast. [It’s] seriously a dream come true and I’m so thankful.”
The next edition of the magazine debuts in May.
