Ua hōʻike lākou i nā hiʻohiʻona o nā ʻano like ʻole, ka nui, a me nā lāhui e hoʻomaopopo i ka hoʻopili ʻana.

ʻO Huckaby ka mea mua me ke kino kīnā e pani ai iā Aerie-a ʻo ka ʻōlelo ʻana ua hauʻoli ʻo ia no ia mea he ʻōlelo haʻahaʻa. "Ua hauʻoli loa wau e hui pū me Aerie ma ke ʻano he Keʻena Role #AerieREAL hou," ua kākau ʻo ia ma Instagram ma ke kaʻana like ʻana i ka nūhou. "ʻAʻole hiki iaʻu ke wehewehe i koʻu mau manaʻo no ka mikiona a me ka ʻuhane holoʻokoʻa o ka ʻoihana."

Ma ke komo ʻana i kēia hoʻolaha, makemake ʻo Huckaby e hōʻike i nā wahine hiki iā lākou ke wiwo ʻole i ke ola, me ka nānā ʻole i ke ʻano o ko lākou kino a i ʻole ka hiki. "Ua hoʻomaka kaʻu huakaʻi makaʻu ʻole me ka maʻi maʻi maʻi," i kākau ai ʻo ia. "Pono wau e hilinaʻi i kaʻu mau kauka i ka wā o kaʻu mau mālama ʻana a ma o ka ʻoki ʻana. A laila pono wau e makaʻu ʻole i ka wā i huki ai wau i koʻu ola mai Louisiana e neʻe i Utah. Pono wau e makaʻu ʻole e lilo i hiʻohiʻona maikaʻi no kaʻu kaikamahine. Pono wau e me ka makaʻu ʻole i ke kau ʻana i ka lole ʻauʻau. Pono wau e makaʻu e aloha i koʻu kino, nā hemahema a me nā mea a pau. (Pili: 10 mau wahine ikaika, ikaika e hoʻoulu i kou kino i loko)

Ua hoʻomau ʻo ia ma ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana i nā wahine he mana ko lākou e haʻalele i ko lākou wahi hōʻoluʻolu a mālama i nā pilikia e hiki mai ana. "ʻAe, weliweli nā manawa hou inā ʻoe e neʻe nei i nā hana, nā hale, a me nā kula hoʻi," kākau ʻo ia. "He aha ka mea nui āu e kaohi ai i kāu hana i nā loli. He mana kāu e hoʻokuʻu ʻole i kekahi mea iā ʻoe. He mana kou e makaʻu ʻole pū kekahi."
