Coco Austin has shocked fans after posting a series of photos of herself in a barely-there bikini that was so skimpy it almost made her appear naked.
The reality TV personality, 47, took to Instagram to post the eye-popping pictures alongside a bright blue Range Rover worth a cool $200,000.
In one particularly racy image, Austin squatted by the tire of her new vehicle in her 'micro thong', with an optical illusion making it appear as if she wasn't wearing any bottoms at all.
The blonde bombshell told her 2.8 million follows that she made the backside-baring 'squat pose' famous in the 1990s.
'For those that don't know!! I feel I was the inventor of this a pose popular since 1997.. and 30 years later I still can" pop it"!! Lol.. Happy Thong Thursday!! Oh and I had to post the 2nd pic so you can see I am indeed wearing a thong,' she wrote.
Austin added that she recently purchased the Range Rover, saying she likes to change up the color of her cars every three years.
