Summary
Sophie Cunningham said she is comfortable being viewed as the WNBA’s “sex symbol,” joking through the label during a podcast interview with Colin Cowherd.
On the show, Cunningham said she has “always been super girly” and rejects the idea that female basketball players cannot embrace dresses, heels and femininity while still competing hard.
Cowherd praised Cunningham on X before the episode’s release, calling her unusually “honest and authentic” compared with other athletes he has interviewed.
The exchange adds to Cunningham’s growing profile beyond her role-player status with the Indiana Fever, as she leans into a public image that mixes on-court toughness with off-court glamour.
