Martha Stewart Lands Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover At 81, Oldest Woman Ever To Do So

Martha Stewart has appeared on the covers of numerous periodicals, including her own Martha Stewart Living, over the years, but she has now set a new record by being the oldest woman to ever grace the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. This distinction was previously held by Maye Musk, who was 74 at the time. Stewart is 81.

As she introduced the cover on Today, Stewart informed Savannah Gutherie and Hoda Kotb, “I like that image.” She then confessed, “It’s strange to go to an island and change into nine different swimsuits in front of so many people in one day…”And it worked out!”

Stewart began modelling at age 15, appearing in print and television advertisements for brands such as Chanel and Unilever. But even for an accomplished model, she stated, “to be on the cover at my age was a challenge.”

When asked by the New York Times about the confidence required to pose for such a sexy publication, Stewart responded, “It has less to do with blatant sex and more to do with self-assurance that began when I was a juvenile. So, when the opportunity presented itself, I thought, ‘I can do this. I am not required to conform to convention. How else would I have persuaded my 81-year-old self to feel comfortable about wearing a bathing suit?”

Stewart was one of four women chosen for the cover, alongside Megan Fox, Kim Petras, and SI Swimsuit veteran Brooks Nader.

It should be noted that this is not Stewart’s first modelling job; she modelled in her teens for several companies, including Chanel.

Not that Stewart is unfamiliar with modelling for photographs. In her teenage years, she began her career as a model, but she later became a stockbroker. With books, television shows, and a magazine, she undoubtedly found her greatest success in the lifestyle category. Her estimated net worth is $400 million.
