Suns out, buns out!
We’re midway through a scorching summer and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue is back to quench our thirst.
Since 1964, the mag has been putting out steamy photos of the boldest bombshells on the planet. The 2021 issue — on newsstands Thursday — showcases SI’s most diverse group of women to date, which includes a slew of plus-size catwalkers and a 57-year-old stunner.
This year’s three cover stars are tennis great Naomi Osaka, Megan Thee Stallion (the first rapper to appear on the cover of the issue) and Leyna Bloom, the first trans woman to appear in the issue and on the cover.
While past issues have featured bikini babes posing in exotic locales from Switzerland to China — Kate Upton even once posed among penguins in Antarctica — the 2020 pandemic curtailed international travel. So, all of this year’s sexy shoots took place stateside at Hard Rock Hotel locations in California, Florida and Atlantic City.
