Megan Thee Stallion’s career has been on the rise for some time now, and while still enjoying fanfare from her recent release of “Thot Sh*t,” the 26-year-old has now made history by becoming the first female rapper to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated Magazine’s coveted swimsuit edition. Tennis superstar Naomi Osaka and trans-actress-model Leyna Bloom also
received the honor, and will be featured as cover models along with the “Savage” rapper.Related Post: Megan Thee Stallion is Taking a Much-Needed Break and Putting The Mic Down
Supermodel and former talk show host Tyra Banks, who became the first Black woman to be featured on a Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover as a solo model in 1997, interviewed Megan Thee Stallion in a hot tub for the magazine. And while fans went up for the representation of women of color and LGBTQ+ identity brought by this year’s cover models, the talk of social media was also largely focused on Banks’ interesting outfit choice.
Appearing to be fully dressed in a gown, many were left questioning why the former America’s Next Top Model host was sitting in a hot tub without a traditional-style bikini.
“Tyra Banks sitting in that hot tub fully clothed with Megan,” one person joked on Twitter.
One fan claimed that it was actually a bodysuit, tweeting, “It’s a bodysuit! I have the same one,”
“This is great but I’m distracted by them being in a hot tub and Tyra being fully clothed,” another person added.
