42 years after she first appeared in Sports Illustrateds famous swimsuit edition, model Christie Brinkley is back gracing the cover for the ninth time at the age of 63. In a first for SI, shes featured in the issue alongside her two daughters, Sailor and Alexa. The photo that has left her fans wondering how exactly she can walk on water.
Brinkley first appeared in SI back in 1975 and was chosen as the cover model for three consecutive years from 1979-81. Her last appearance in the issue was in 2004. With this shot, Brinkley is now the oldest woman ever to appear in the swimsuit issue, breaking the record set last year by 56-year-old Nicola Griffin.
This is a real full circle moment for me, Brinkley told SI. I can get very emotional about this. How many years ago, I was that insecure girl hoping that I would be good enough for the magazine. So to see my daughters now having the same thoughts I had, and to be able to see them actually be there on the job, was definitely a big moment.
Photos of Brinkleys shoot have made the rounds on Twitter this morning. A few eagle-eyed fans pointed out that shes not exactly standing on her daughters legs when shes posing with them.

More brainless Hollywood-type celebrity kids. Too bad. The Trumps did so well in raising their kids.
Laz? What say ye?
I’d take a shot at the cheating babysitter, Diana Bianchi, long before watching Christy scrape all that plastic off.
hope you skipped reading the rest of her recent tweets.
I met Heather Locklear a couple of times when she was still married to Tommy Lee and she was just as beautiful in person and in the photos and on TV. A real sweetheart, too.
As for those celebs that are “not that hot in person” I’ve heard that Cameron Diaz falls in that camp, though I’ve never met her.
And a good surgeon.
Hubba-hubba....
Agreed! That way I wouldn't have to date 35 year olds with baggage......

I subbed in a bunco group lately that has 2 older gay women in it. They were going on and on about scoring tickets to the Cher concert in Vegas. One said......and wow does she look great for 70. I rolled my eyes and said so could you if you had her money
Just kidding. She looks fantastic...kudos to her indeed!
Pretty good for post menopause. She actually never did all that much for me compared to Paulina Poroskova and her era.
Her daughters are beautiful, too!
For years, I’ve been telling myself to get a Total Gym.
Damn, that looks like Keith Richards.
5.56mm
The Joel daughter is way hotter than the other one.
She looks exotic. The other one is just another blond.
Billy Joel is a dumb ass!
You do not have to look like a sea hag because you get older.
I use 4 different topical serums, supplements, I exercise and eat right.
I look pretty good for almost 58.
