Rebel was posing with her hands on her hips in a vest top and sunglasses, while wearing a backwards cap for added cool points.

"Does anyone else remember 'cruising'?" the star asked in the picture's caption. "I feel like it was something us bogans used to do…the buffets, the 6 of us in a tiny cabin on the bottom of the boat, the talent contest where Human Nature awarded me first place."

She added: "PS my hat's turned backwards cause I'm obviously super cool, dude!"
