On Monday Heidi, 50, shared a clip from her upcoming pop single release.
The former supermodel was filmed lying in bed. It looked as if she was naked under the covers.

“Heidi seems to have gone from wearing sexy dresses to completely stripping off, " Hemmings told The U.S. Sun.
"She has started regularly posing provocatively online.
"This all feels tawdry, desperate, and unnecessary.
“Heidi's natural allure comes from being suggestive, and not stripping off like a public peep show.

“Her posts have evolved to overtly sexual images post-50.
“What is also surprising is that this switch-up has all happened so quickly.”

Heidi’s New Year vacation with her husband, Tom Kaulitz, 34, saw the couple showing PDA on a St Bart's beach.
The pop star was filmed swimming topless in one of her Instagram clips.
In another video, Heidi waltzed out of the ocean, with just a reindeer float covering her naked breasts.
One clip showed her lying topless, sunbathing on the sand.
Previously, Heidi said she felt half her age and was more energetic than Tom.
"Sometimes I look in the mirror, and I'm like, 'Oh yeah, I am 50,'" she told Entertainment Tonight.
"But internally, I feel like I'm 25. I'm full of energy. My husband is 33, and I know I have more energy than him!" she added.

Hemmings said the mom of four had become focused on the age gap and lacked confidence over it.
“Heidi and her husband look pretty loved up," she said.
"I am sure her being so physically hot helps.
“But Heidi may feel that with their 16-year age gap, she has to show the world that it does not matter.
“Now everyone can see how toned and trim she is for themselves.
“Heidi feels more vulnerable because of this age gap.
"She may be trying to bridge it using her looks and poses.
"There is a lack of confidence about her age compared to Tom's."

Tom is Heidi’s third husband. The pair married in 2019.
Before Tom, she was married to stylist Ric Pipino between 1997 and 2002.
Heidi may go toward full nudity and sexual scenes
The TV star also married singer Seal in 2005. The couple shares Henry, 17, Johan, 14, and Sulola Samuel, 11.
Heidi also shares 19-year-old Leni with her former partner, Flavio Briatore, 70.

Hemmings said Heidi might want to consider her children before posting any similar pictures.
“Heidi still has to remember she has young kids, " she said.
"These naked and sexual displays are not a great message to them.
“The beach shots are fine, and it is great to be body confident.
“But the sexual poses with Tom would probably embarrass the hell out of her kids.
“She is trying to prove to others that she still looks stunning.
"Heidi does, but how much further can she pursue that acceptance?
“Heidi may go toward full nudity and sexual scenes.”

Hemmings noted Heidi's intimate bed photos with her husband as well.
She claimed going any further might harm her career.
“It is difficult to accept the aging process," she said.
“While Heidi looks magnificent, her need to keep showing it to the world, rather than in private, indicates more vulnerability.
"These photos might show off her worry than it might initially seem.
“I hope the filter is there at some point.
"I hope Heidi recognizes that going any further than this is more likely to tarnish her reputation.
“These naked images will certainly not enhance it.”

She became a huge hit as a judge on America’s Got Talent and remained aligned with some of the world's best models.
“Just like the other supermodels of her time, Heidi looks extraordinary at 50," added Hemmings.
“Heidi is extremely confident and proud of her body.
She is throwing everything, in terms of naked flesh, to ensure that everybody is aware of her single
“Displaying herself like this publicly makes her feel more self-assured.
“It is a brave and bold move, but she may struggle for self-acceptance now that she has reached 50.
"Heid may not be taken seriously as a singer.
“Her modeling days may be over, but she has a new song coming out.
“She is throwing everything, in terms of naked flesh, to ensure that everybody is aware of her single coming out.

“So, it makes sense to her to promote herself in the way she feels most self-assured about.
