Meanwhile, Banks recalled their previous discussion on the subject. Saying, “[Kim] remarked she hadn’t seen boobs that were real and large when I was on the cover of Sports Illustrated.” Banks went on to say, “She claimed that this gave her body self-esteem. So we had a serious discussion, and I ultimately said, “Let’s do it!”” “We just had an honest heart-to-heart talk.” Kim said, “and she got to hear what the brand stands for, why I established the brand — and I’m all about supporting women.”
