Martha Stewart becomes Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s oldest cover model: ‘Kind of historic’

Martha Stewart has made history as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s oldest cover model, an achievement the 81 year old described as “kind of historic”.

The businesswoman has been chosen as one of four cover models to be featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s annual Swimsuit Issue, joining Megan Fox, Kim Petras, and Brooks Nader.

Speaking to SI about her cover model status, Stewart said she doesn’t often think about age, but that she was impressed by her feat.

“When I heard that I was going to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, I thought, ‘Oh, that’s pretty good, I’m going to be the oldest person I think ever on a cover of Sports Illustrated,’” Stewart said. “And I don’t think about age very much, but I thought that this is kind of historic.”

As for why she decided to participate in the shoot, the cookbook author said she wanted to prove that age doesn’t matter when it comes to things such as “friendship or in terms of success”. Rather, Stewart said what’s important is “what people do, how people think, how people act”.

“Age is not the determining factor in terms of friendship or in terms of success, but what people do, how people think, how people act, that’s what’s important and not your age,” she explained.

Honestly, I think she looks lovely.

I know she’s a lib.

I respect her though for her work ethic, good product, and the fact that she was really unfairly imprisoned. That was such a farce.

100%. I hope that when Trump is back in the Oval Office that he pardons her. I had hoped that in his first term- a surprise pardon!!!

I knew a lady whose sister is her good friend. She was invited to Martha’s for holiday gatherings. Away from media she was a generous kind lady especially to this lady who was a single mother.

Martha was accused of insider trading. She denied it.

She was not convicted of insider trading. She was convicted of lying to federal instigators ... because she denied doing something the State could not prove she did.

It’s called a “process crime”, and it’s proof that the system is corrupt.

Martha is my girl. Glad she did it. Since SI is a useless magazine anyway, it doesn’t matter who they put on the cover.

You have to wonder why Sports Illustrated would post pictures of an octogenarian woman, who might not look too bad given her age, but is not attractive as she was 50-60 years ago. Sports magazines, like other magazines, are in terminal decline. Like other old line institutions, the magazine is controlled by leftist managers who are pushing an agenda of ugliness. It is a small fraction of an overall rejection of objectivity, beauty, rationality, and decency in American and Western culture. It is somewhat ironic because Martha Stewart has dedicated her career to making homes look nice. She has a tremendous ego and thinks she is the attractive model she was in her youth. Sports Illustrated sees her as what she is: physically well past her prime and on a par with the obese women and"she males" that they have used in the past.

Thevl delusions of the woke crowd is evident in the recent advertisement by Miller Lite. Oblivious to the Bud Light disaster, they posted a commercial of a nasty women with a foul mouth decrying the Miller Lite ads with pretty women and saying that women invented beer. Not as weird as Dylan Mulvaney perhaps, but even more strident and leftist.

Lessons: ignore pro sports and drink independent beers. Some of the craft beers are brewed by leftists, but at least you are not feeding a multinational, leftist big corporation.

Look on the bright side... at least she’s a biological female.
