Kathy Coverage
Modelina has a nice little retrospective: "Looking Back at Sports Illustrated's 25th Anniversary Issue."
They wonder if 2013's 50th Anniversary Issue will live up to Kathy's 25th Anniversary Issue.
Looks like they made the same blunder I did a while back. 2013 would be the 50th swimsuit issue, but only the 49th anniversary. (If 1989 was the 25th anniversary, then the 50th will be in 2014.)

Oh, Christie...
Christie Brinkley promises she'll promptly pay over $530,000 in back taxes.
Christie, if it will help, here you are in your third One-Piece Wednesday.

Sweet + Boozy = Chrissy
I would be remiss if I didn't plug Chrissy Teigen's appearance on the Cooking Channel. "Cookies & Cocktails" premieres tonight, I think.
Here's Chrissy. I thought this shot was fitting, because I understand this type of sandy coating is known in the industry as "Shake & Bake."

Brunettes in Their Underthings!
You may remember that over the summer, the bros at Guyism.com announced their 100 Sexiest Lingerie Models in the World.
Not to be outdone, the guys at BroBible.com recently doubled that number—and color-coded it. In two parts, they listed the 100 Hottest Brunette Lingerie Models and the 100 Hottest Blonde Lingerie Models.
With the longer list, they had room to top Guyism’s list of 17 SI models by including 24. Well, that’s not technically true. BroBible slipped up a little, counting Isabeli Fontana twice among the brunettes, at #68 and #90, calling the science of the whole experiment into question.
Guyism’s entire lineup of SI girls is repeated in BroBible’s, with one exception: Cintia Dicker. An obvious redhead, she was disqualified from either of BroBible’s lists.
Shall we take a gander?
Brunettes #38: Pania Rose 
#42: Jarah Mariano 
#54: Izabel Goulart 
#60: Lucia Dvorska 
#63: Selita Ebanks 
#68: Isabeli Fontana 
#80: Kim Cloutier 
#90: Isabeli Fontana (oops) 
#91: Raica Oliveira 
#95: Irina Shayk 
#100: Alyssa Miller 
Tomorrow: The Blondes.

Darcie Baum, You're Killing Me
This means there's a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model wearing nothing but paint being photographed somewhere in the world right now.
Happy Birthday, Chrissy Teigen
Normally, I'd combine this news with One-Piece Wednesday, but pics of Chrissy in a one-piece are in short supply. I've already used her pink knit 2010 one. And this one from 2011:
...Well, it's frankly not the most attractive suit. So let's celebrate her 26th with this heart-stopping shot.

Jarah Mariano
In the blur of Thanksgiving, I missed Jarah Mariano's birthday on Wednesday.
This is probably my favorite photo of her, from 2008. It could have been the cover.

I Don't Mean to Brag, But...
I do have a Twitter account, but there's not much in the way of tweets. (I use it to follow, not to be followed.) Still, Ms. Alt, it is an honor.

One-Piece Wednesday: 2012 Mystery Ladies
Last Friday, @darciebaum tweeted this:
...which linked to this:
It was one of a series of promising one-piecers we've gotten a glimpse of from Darcie and MJ.
I'm particularly enthralled with upper-left (Kate Upton perhaps?) and lower-right (a rookie? That's a very sexy corner-of-the-mouth..).
I've been snatching up all the preview shots I can (well, the ones that don't get taken down for some prudish reason or another). It will be fun to try to match the sneak-preview tweets with the models, once February rolls around.

Lap Full of Caps
@SI_Swimsuit posted a link to a Gillette "Rookie to Cover" site from a year or two ago, where you can follow the journeys of Brooklyn Decker, Marisa Miller, Petra Nemcova, Veronica Varekova, and Rebecca Romijn from their first appearances in the magazine to their covers some years later.
One of the 2002 shots of Veronica shows her in her Dos Equis bottlecap bikini.
Now wait a second. When this pic was published, it looked like this:
They edited out her bikini bottom.
I have spent nine years filled with sympathy for how painful that suit must have been to wear. And it was just more bikini bottom trickery from SI.
