Ronda Rousey, Ashley Graham and Hailey Clauson have been unveiled as the cover stars for the 2016 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue
In an
unusual step by the magazine the women feature on three individual
covers which were revealed during a televised event in New York on
Saturday February 13,2016
It
is the first time that three very different body types have been
represented by the publication in its annual bikini special.
Moments
after the unveiling Rousey said: 'It's a real honor being part of such a
historic issue that really pays homage to different body types of women
and not promoting just one cookie cutter image for every woman, but
showing that the healthiest version of every body type is the sexiest
version out there.
'And I couldn't be happier...I think I was just as honored to get it as to be there in person to watch Ashley's reaction.'
Ashley Graham, at a size 14, is the first fuller-figured model to take one of the prized spots on the cover
