Sports Illustrated has introduced its next slate of finalist models for its upcoming swimsuit issue, and a plus-sized model, a 56-year-old model, and a bald fitness trainer will be among them.
The magazine introduced the six finalists that the magazine touted as its most diverse ever. The finalists were winnowed down from seventeen hopefuls unveiled last October, the Daily Mail reported.
Before this years winner is announced, the magazine is set to send the finalists to a photo-shoot conducted in the Turks & Caicos Islands, a British Overseas Territory southeast of the Bahamas.
The finalists include Philadelphia native Christie Valdiserri, a 25-year-old fitness instructor and dancer whose personal style includes are bald head.
I was inspired to attend the Model Search in Miami when I finally had enough strength and confidence in myself as a bald woman, Valdiserri recently said.
Valdiserri added that she wanted to educate the next generation that beauty comes from who you are, not from what you look like.
Kathy Jacobs from Calabasas, California, is also a member of the group, but at 56 and silver-haired, is an even more unconventional finalist for the magazines most glamorous photo-shoot.
Ive entered the SI Swimsuit Model Search and flown to Miami twice, Jacobs said. The first time I didnt make it past the first round. But I didnt give up! I felt a burning desire to try again and to be part of a change in the way society views women over 50.

That big Russian mama from the old Wendy’s commercial will be featured this year. Can’t wait!
Tell me, is Sports Illustrated in the business of marketing their magazine to the people who want to buy it, or to the people who want to model for pictures taken to appear in it?
The publishers and editors of Sports Illustrated need to ask themselves why are they in business if the former is not their goal.
Looks like Carl Reiner from left coast.
“and Kathy Ireland were still young and hot”
I saw Kathy in the waiting area at Atlanta airport about 10 years ago and she was still very beautiful. She has aged gracefully and wore clothes that were classy.

Odds are next year there will be a goat. SI is woke.
Get woke. Go broke.
Get woke, go broke.
It will sell like hotcakes in the Middle East.................
I hate to break it to ya, but 13 year old boys these days are not getting their excited peeks from magazines these days. There's more stuff available for free online, at the touch of a fingertip, than you could possibly imagine... and nobody balks at a kid staring at a device these days, so they're checking out some raw sex stuff even in the grocery stores and on playgrounds and everywhere else... whereas we could never conceive of peeking at a pilfered dirty magazine in public view back in our day!
The 56 year-old woman is hot.
At first I thought it said 113,000 kg. Lol
Filing for bankruptcy when?
Then I suggest you two bury it in the backyard and don't say anything if the cops come calling."
OMG! That's got to be one of the funniest things I've ever read! Thanks for the belly laugh!
CLOSE!..........
