Chrissy Teigen Covers SI Swimsuit in Barely There One-Piece 10 Years After Her Last Sexy Appearance
The mogul last covered the publication in 2014 alongside Nina Agdal and Lily Aldridge
Chrissy Teigen has returned to her modeling roots.
The mom, mogul and New York Times bestselling author fronts one of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s 2024 covers, striking her sexiest pose in a plunging, peachy Saint Laurent one-piece and Jacquie Aiche jewelry for the moment shot by famed photographer Yu Tsai.
Teigen, 38, won the publication’s Rookie of the Year in 2010 and appeared on the 2014 cover alongside models Nina Agdal and Lily Aldridge.
Since then, she’s launched her cooking empire Cravings by Chrissy Teigen and welcomed four kids with her husband, musician John Legend: Luna, 8, Miles, 5, Esti, 1, and Wren, 11 months.
“Chrissy Teigen represents the new generation of model moguls,” MJ Day, editor in chief of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, said in a press release.
Teigen joins Gayle King, Hunter McGrady and Kate Upton, who also front their own 2024 covers. In honor of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s 60th anniversary, the brand also organized a Legends shoot, producing a trilogy of covers with some of the most famous faces to ever grace the pages of SI Swim including King, McGrady, Teigen, Upton, Tyra Banks, Christie Brinkley, Martha Stewart, Molly Sims, Maye Musk, Leyna Bloom, Paulina Porizkova and Winnie Harlow.
Teigen has been very open about her own body image journey and plastic surgery procedures. Earlier this year, she appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and revealed she had her “boobs done three times,” during the show’s “The Lies Have It” game.
“I’ve had a lift, a put in, a take them out. I don’t like them out,” she added with a laugh.
In March 2020, Teigen first revealed she had breast implants, explaining that she underwent plastic surgery when she was 20.
“It was more for a swimsuit thing,” Teigen told Glamour UK at the time. “I thought if I’m going to be posing, laid on my back, I want them to be perky! But then you have babies and they fill up with milk and deflate and now I am screwed.”
“I had a quarter ‘teardrop’ cup in the bottom and filled out the breast line. But I want them out now,” she said at the time. “If I could do one thing, it would be to have a lift.”
