50 years ago the Beatles Invaded America, and America made plans to invade Vietnam. Little black & white portable televisions were gaining popularity, along with a major movement called Civil Rights. Despite all this excitement, the winter months in the US were usually a little slow for the magazine, Sports Illustrated.

To boost lagging sales, the editor, Andre Laguerre, invented the “Swimsuit Issue”. Now, 50 years later, the swimsuit issue is still just as popular as ever.

This year is the 50th Anniversary of that first swimsuit issue, and to celebrate, Sports Illustrated will be featuring some very iconic faces. This will include cover girl Chrissy Teigen, Heidi Klum, Rebecca Romijn, Cheryl Tiegs, Christie Brinkley, and the ever fabulous Kate Upton. We can’t wait.
