Olivia Culpo Lands on the Cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Alongside Jasmine Sanders and Kate Bock
Olivia Culpo is one of the new featured models on the Sports Illustrated (SI) Swimsuit Edition 2020 cover, receiving a solo appearance as well as a group shot alongside Jasmine Sanders and Kate Bock.
SI will be producing four issues, one with all three women and then one of each model individually. Culpo was featured in the 2018 and 2019 edition of the swimsuit issue, however, this will be her first cover appearance.
This is a “groundbreaking issue” for SI as this is the first time they have used “three powerful women” to create “four incredible covers,” as stated in their Instagram post. Take a look at the stunning trio cover below, photographed in Bali, Indonesia.
The Rhode Island native has dreamed of this moment in her career for many years. About four years ago she was sitting in her house cutting out pictures and creating a vision board of her face on other SI swimsuit models. She wrote in her Instagram post to, “never stop visualizing and striving for what you want. Don’t lose hope and remain focused and persistent…I just hope this can show anyone out there that their goals, big or small, really can come true and that you deserve it.”
See below for her gorgeous solo cover.
Culpo has competed in major beauty pageants and holds the title of Miss Rhode Island USA, Miss USA, and Miss Universe all in 2012. This girl will stop at nothing once she puts her mind to it. Culpo is making her mark in the world as a strong, empowered female, and that’s what we like to see.
Hi! I am Hannah Forton pursuing a double major in Communications and Music Industry. I love traveling, sports, cooking, music, Broadway, movies, DIY, make-up, clothes, and tutorials. Some of my favorite work experiences includes an internship at a recording studio and working at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Helping and educating others is important to me, and I’ve enjoyed being able to do so through volunteering for numerous non-profits since middle school. I like the big city vibes, but small towns will always hold a special place in my heart. Living near Detroit allows me to achieve the best of both worlds.
