Live Streaming... The F/W 2025.26 Fashion Shows
Well, the secret is out! Emily Ratajkowski has gone from “Blurred Lines” model, to up-and-coming movie star and now, an official Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model!
In anticipation of the franchise’s buzzed-about 50th anniversary issue , Sports Illustrated confirmed today that the gorgeous brunette model will in fact appear in this year’s issue, joining Sara Sampaio and Gigi Hadid as part of the 2014 rookie class! In honor of the big news, Emily posted the photo below on Twitter along with the caption:
“How’d you all recognize my bum so well? THE WORD IS OFFICIALLY OUT! So excited and honored to be a rookie in @SI_swimsuit 50th anniversary issue! Thank you @mj_day @ja_neyney @walteriooss Can’t wait for Feb 18 when the issue will hit stands!
As previously reported, this is far from Emily’s first brush with the magazine. In 2013, the viral video star sat down with the SI Swim team at a casting call during which she named being in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit as an item on her bucket list. When asked about posing for the magazine Emily remarked, “I think there’s a wonderful tradition. This year is the anniversary issue. It would be an honor to be included in that history of supermodels.”
Congrats Emily! And don’t miss the rookie’s full spread in the 2014 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 50th anniversary issue on newsstands Feb. 18!
