For their annual TV Portfolio, asked "21 sought-after names in television to pay homage to their favorite small screen characters by stepping into their shoes."

She showcased her impressive figure by rocking a velvet triangle bikini in a hot pink color, which she paired with army printed, way oversized overalls and ironically, a pair of white pumps, which surely dug into the grassy farmland she took the epic portraits on.
