I rarely use the word, “Perfect” (except when describing my kissing when I drink tequila on weekends), but every superhero movie, needs a SUPER villain and @priyankachopra is PERFECT as our lead baddie in #BAYWATCH. Bad ass, intelligent, sexy, sophisticated, charming, evil and great tequila drinker. #Perfect #BAYWATCH MAY 25th
