Ginger Zee

Ginger Zee, a meteorologist for Good Morning America, recently took inspiration from some co-workers in an attempt to appear expertly casual in photos. But she soon discovered that it's a lot harder than it looks.

The 43-year-old took to Instagram on May 31 to recount her relatable story in a video captioned, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but what if you fail at the imitation? ??????."

She began, "I have noticed that some of the women I work with—that are gorgeous women, wonderful mommas—they have the best smiles. They have this like effortless laughing smile..." Zee specifically mentioned GMA's Lori Bergamotto and ABC News' Maggie Rulli as two Fattemptexamples, sharing photos of their great smiles.

"So I thought, 'I'll try it.' So when we were in Puerto Rico for a shoot and we were doing a group shot, I thought, 'This is the perfect time,'" Zee went on, before showing the final product, and it wasn't exactly what she was going for. Laughing, she simply said, "It wasn't it."

Zee explained that she kept trying throughout the trip and shared some of her other photo attempts before declaring, "Lesson learned. I'm just gonna keep my normal smile. Leave it to Lori and Maggie who are the experts for a reason."

Fans appreciated Zee's relatable story, sharing comments like, "I adore you. This is so funny," and "Your attempts are adorable and hilarious! Thank you for being real."

"You are the moat [sic] authentic person in media. Yes! Keep doing 'You,'" a third chimed in.

Others shared how much they love Zee's regular smile, writing, "Your normal smile is more than enough. It brightens the day," and "You have an incredible smile Ginger! Your smile is unique to you and only you! No need to change it."

Zee continues to charm and connect with fans on social media, and lately, people have been loving the meteorologist's fashion, such as a stunning striped dress and bright orange outfit that she wore while on the job.
