Melania Trump claims she has 'many other important things to do’ as she rules out modeling comeback
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Melania Trump reportedly has no time for modeling as she once again prepares to be the first lady of the United States.
Donald Trump won the presidential 2024 election in November after defeating Vice President Kamala Harris and will be inaugurated on January 20.
Recently, the 54-year-old former model appeared on ‘Fox and Friends’ where she was asked by host Brian Kilmeade if she would like to pose for a magazine cover if given a chance, as reported by The New York Post.
But the former first lady said on Wednesday, December 4, “Look, I’ve been there on the covers — on the cover of Vogue, on the covers of many magazines before.”
Melania Trump feels her modeling won’t change anyone's life
“And, you know, for me, we have so many other important things to do than to be on the cover of any magazine. I think life would not change for anybody if I’m on the cover,” she stated.
Melania was seemingly referring to her work as first lady of America as earlier a tipster reportedly shared, “If her husband is elected, she will attend the White House functions that she is asked to attend just as she always has. Melania knows what to do, yet has a mind of her own.”
Kilmeade then jokingly added, “Can I retract my question?”
Melania, a Slovenian-born, had graced many magazine covers before Trump joined politics.
In 1995, she even went nude for a French adult magazine. She once again chose the same path in 2000 when she posed wearing nothing for Trump’s private jet for British GQ.
Melania and the incoming president first met in 1998 at the Kit Kat Club during New York Fashion Week.
At the time, the mother-of-one was 28 while Trump was 52.
However, the huge age difference did not stop them from tying the knot in 2005. They also welcomed their only child Barron in 2006.
Melania Trump justified her nude photoshoots
This came after Melania Trump spoke against the scrutiny she faced because of her bold choices.
A few months back, she said, as per The Post, “Why do I stand proudly behind my nude modeling work? The more pressing question is, why has the media chosen to scrutinize my celebration of the human form in a fashion photo shoot?”

“Are we no longer able to appreciate the beauty of the human body?” she asked, before further asserting, “Throughout history, master artists have revered the human shape, evoking profound emotions and admiration.”
“We should honor our bodies and embrace the timeless tradition of using art as a powerful means of self-expression,” Melania added.
