On Friday, the crew continued the weekend at Miami River hot spot Seaspice, making a grand entrance to the restaurant by arriving via a 90-ft. Azimut yacht. Tyra Banks, Olivia Culpo, Halima Aden, Jasmine Sanders and Barbara Palvin with beau Cole Sprouse all showed up to celebrate the grand occasion. Earlier that day, the legendary Tyra Banks led the biggest panel of the weekend at SI Swimsuit on Location, where she spilled the tea on how to stay true to yourself in the competitive modeling industry, while still being successful. She also revealed some unseen “before” photos of herself prior to getting glam at shoots, which had the audience bursting with laughter throughout the talk. Olivia Culpo later celebrated her birthday with a surprise birthday cake at Miami Design District hot spot, Swan, with new love interest Zedd, Miami hospitality king David Grutman and her model squad as they all sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to Culpo.

Tyra Banks continued to heat things up on Saturday, as she was spotted chatting with her former rival Paulina Porizkova during dinner at Myn-Tu, which piqued the interest of onlookers. They put old rumors of their 10-year feud to rest as they enjoyed each other’s company and posed for photos together. The weekend came to an epic close as SI Swimsuit IT girls Olivia Culpo, Winnie Harlow, Kate Bock, Camille Kostek, Danielle Harrington and more closed out their Miami SI Swimsuit On location weekend with a wild private party at Mynt joined by Kid Cudi, Dylan Sprouse, NFL’s Rob Gronkowski and Josh Rosen, NBA’s Kevin Love and Lil Pump.
