Celebrating 50 Years of Bikini BabesA Look at ‘Sports Illustrated’ Swimsuit Issue’s 16 Most Memorable Covers
To honor its 50th issue, Sports Illustrated commissioned models Nina Agdal, Lily Aldridge and Chrissy Teigen for a very cheeky cover.
All three beauties stun in the issue, which features the trio in nothing but barely-there bikini bottoms on a gorgeous beach — JEALOUS.
Shortly after the mag revealed its latest edition, the gals took to social media to express their gratitude.
