Olympic champion & World's Sexiest Woman, Laura Trott, refuses to pose nude.

Laura TrottLaura Trott says the realm of lads' mags are a no-go for her


As a double Olympic champion and world champion, Laura Trott is used to winning.
But there was one accolade, Olympic & World champion, Laura Trott, is not happy to receive - a place in FHM's 'Sexiest Women in the World' list.
The 21-year-old snubbed the 'awards ceremony', saying it was a 'no go' area for her and she wanted to focus on her athletic career rather than strip off for lads' mags.
Refreshingly, the Olympic record holder has refused to compromise her principles by conforming to pressures for women to look a certain way.


Trott, who won her second gold medal in the Omnium at the track cycling World Cup in Manchester this week, conceded that there is a 'pressure to fulfil a certain image' but says that she refuses to allow it affect her.
Writing in the Daily Telegraph this week Trott, from Hertfordshire, wrote: 'Earlier this year I was asked to attend an awards ceremony for the Sexiest Women in the World.
'That was just a no-go for me. That whole other side of things just does not appeal to me.
'I do sport because I like being an athlete.
'I want to inspire young girls to get on their bikes, and I just believe there is a certain way of doing that, a certain way that I want to be seen.'
Trott, who is in a relationship with her Olympic teammate Jason Kenny, avoided criticizing her fellow cyclists, who have posed nude (see photos below) like Victoria Pendleton and Rebecca Romero saying that it was her choice not to raise her profile through suggestive photos shoots. Incidentally Victoria Pendleton was ranked 39 in the Sexiest Women list despite having posed nude in the past.#gofigure..way to go gurl@ Laura Trott
