World Series flasher Julia Rose wants to attend Gerrit Cole’s Yankees debut

The Instagram models that caused havoc at the World Series with their flashing antics are refusing to leave their biggest victim alone.

Three Instagram models banned after ‘exposing’ themselves during game

Two more reasons for Gerrit Cole to smile.

Julia Rose, one of the two busty women who flashed Cole as he pitched during the 2019 World Series, said Wednesday she should “show some support” for the Yankees’ $US324 million man on Opening Day.

“I feel like I should go show some support,” the Instagram model tweeted in response to an account counting down the 106 days until Cole likely will take the mound in Baltimore to begin next season.

Of course, Rose won’t be permitted in Oriole Park at Camden Yards after her stunt in support of breast cancer awareness had her and co-worker Lauren Summer banned from all MLB stadiums.

It also led to the 29-year-old Cole blocking Rose on Twitter.

Rose and her band of rogue flashers revealed in October the stunt to expose themselves during Game 5 of the World Series in America cost more than $AUD100,000 and was nearly a year in the making.

The risque flashing stunt from Rose, Lauren Summer and Kayla Lauren made worldwide headlines and drew major attention to their X-rated digital magazine Shagmag — and it was far from a spur-of-the moment decision.

In an interview with Complex Rose said the cost of tickets for the entourage amounted to approximately $US80,000, or $AUD116,000, but even though she and her partners in crime have been banned from all future Major League Baseball games, the publicity gained from their brazen act was worth it.

The adventurous models chose a baseball game to make their stand because of the higher odds of getting on TV and they certainly captured plenty of eyeballs — even those of former Houston Astros pitcher Cole, who they were trying to distract.

“We made eye contact (with Cole) for sure,” Rose said.

“It (baseball) is one of the best sports with the most coverage. You know where the cameras are most of the time. Personally, I’m a huge football fan, but when it comes to football, you know it’s almost impossible to get on camera.

“So we knew the cameras and where they’d be, and it’s the kind of just go for it type thing with baseball.”

Rose and Co. were warned by officials about trying any funny business when they took their seats but it didn’t deter them. They were even prepared for the possibility of being arrested and going to jail but they managed to avoid spending any time behind bars.

“As we are taking that photo, there’s two security guards trying to pull us back, but we knew that, like, you can’t get really hands-on, so we’ve just tried ignoring them,” Rose said.

“But they radioed for back-up. Back-up came and then they ended up escorting us back up and waited, and then cops showed up, and security showed up, and we were escorted by five security guards down to MLB jail, I guess you could say.

“We were detained for about two hours, and that’s when they came down and handed us the letter basically stating that we’re banned from that stadium for five years and all MLB events indefinitely.

“We were prepared for anything. We knew, worst-case scenario, we were going to get arrested. We were like, ‘Everyone make sure you eat and go to the bathroom before we do this because you don’t know when the next time you’ll be able to pee is going to be’.

“We thought maybe a fine. Me, I honestly didn’t expect to be banned from life from all MLB events. I did not expect that one. But, I mean, I guess it comes with this.”

Rose told the New York Post at the time the trio had plans to spice up more sporting events in the future — with the best intentions.

Addressing why they exposed themselves, Shagmag’s brand executive Summer said she hoped to raise awareness about breast cancer

“To clarify, yes we knew we would get banned, yes the (banishment) letters are real, and yes, I would do it again lol. More importantly, subscribe to @SHAGMAG_ because the proceeds go directly to women with breast cancer to pay for their medical bills,” Summer tweeted.

“Our proceeds from @SHAGMAG_ will be going to women with breast cancer and paying off their medical bills. Meeting with them in person and doing whatever we can to help with the platform we have.”
