Tori Spellingis looking back on herBeverly Hills, 90210days — and the photo shoots that came along with them!

In anInstagrampost from Thursday, Nov. 21, the actress, 51, shared several sexy photos from a magazine spread she did back in 2000, and reflected on that era of her career, calling it “freeing.”

“October 2000 for Stuff Magazine!✨” she captioned the photos, which included her younger self posing in pink and blue bikinis as well as a bra and underwear set against the backdrop of a hotel room and a diner. Her dark brown hair was styled with a few blonde highlights, and she wore plenty of early ’00s glossy lip makeup to complete her look.

“This was all about me showing that a good girl, aka Donna Martin, could still be a character based on faith, family, kindness, morals, strength, and mindfulness, while owning her allure and sexuality,” she said, referring to her character in90210.“I embraced my own style and showed a different side of Tori too. It was so freeing to step out of how others saw me and into my own confidence.”

Spelling played Donna Martin, best friend toJennie Garth’s Kelly, on the hit ’90s Fox series. Originally written as a supporting character, Donna developed into a lead throughout the series.

Spelling, now amom of five, has been candid about the memories she has of working on90210and her career in Hollywood as a teenager.

Back in 2019, she opened up in a similar Instagram post in which she reflected on her teen years starring in the show. She admitted at the time that she “didn’t feel at all beautiful,” despite her character being known as popular and pretty.

“Fake it till you make it… I was a young really insecure teenager that never thought I was good enough," she shared at the time.

“Yet, I was on a hugely successful tv show playing a beautiful popular teen that had it all together. A character that girls everywhere looked up to and boys adored. Off camera I didn’t feel at all beautiful or good about myself,” Spelling continued the post, which accompanied a throwback photo of her striking a pose and looking confident in mini black shorts, a red-and-white leather jacket and black cowgirl boots.

“… Goes to show that perception is not always reality,” she continued.
