Another high note for Beyonce — the coveted cover shot of this year’s Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. The singer and now movie star (“Dreamgirls”) posed on a Florida beach in a yellow-and-pink bikini by House of Dereon, the fashion label she started with her mother, Tina Knowles. There’s also a photo spread inside. “The Dreamgirl As You’ve Never Seen Her,” a cover
headline teases. The 2007 swimsuit edition continues with a music them inside, featuring scantily-clad models posing with Kanye West, Aerosmith, Kenny Chesney, Gnarls Barkley and Panic! At the Disco for the camera of lensman Steve Erle.

That is such BS. That belongs to a Super Model and not her. Seriously when did Sport Illustrated become Rolling Stone? The swimsuit issue is about sports, not music. Call me a tradionalist, but everything about the above this swimsuir issue is so f’ing wrong. I bet you this will be the lowest selling SI swimsuit issue of all time. And to top it off it is a horrible picture of her.
I am sure models and agencies are giving SI and earful, don’t you think?
