The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue is coming out, I hear that they are printing 40,000 extra copies to cope with the demand!!


The issue was promoted in a New York hotspot by tennis champ Maria Sharapova, models Rachel Hunter, Daniela Pestova, and Petra Nemcova, which gave the all-star Beach Party issue a well publised send-off.


Among the scantily clad girls gathered on the cover is veteran supermodel Elle Macpherson, who holds the record for the most Sports Illustrated covers – five in total.


Hello! Magazine reports the 42-year-old mother of two saying it was great to get together with Rachel and other chums for the shoot in The Bahamas last year.

"It was like a big family, since so many of us brought our kids. We all went surfing. It was so relaxed and easy,"

she recalled. Hmmmm we all just wish that at 42 we could have something like your figure Elle. Jealous, Me, - no way(!!!!!!!)


For sports fans(!) keen to get the new issue, the full line-up is Carolyn Murphy, Daniela Pestova, Elle Macpherson, Elsa Benitez, Rachel Hunter, Rebecca Romijn, Veronica Varekova and Yamila Diaz-Rahi.


Also in the the new issue is this little number, worn by Molly Simms - all I can say is OH MY GOD - and do you know how much it costs - $20 million!!!! I bet she daren't move !!!! Quick someone get her a wrap!!


Can you go swimming in this?
